fanwink

When the writers of a television show, movie, video game or other product include jokes that the audience will get based not on the show, but on outside knowledge. Actors meeting co-stars from previous series, saying famous lines, or put in familiar situations just to play to the base like an asexual form of fanservice.

An in-jokey shout out in a body of work. The type of thing that fans will catch, but everyone else will ignore. More obscure than a simple reference, more in-depth than an in-joke, but a unique kind of thing anyway.

The writers are, in effect, winking at their fans. Fankwink.

Wow, they really put "you wouldn't like me when I'm angry" in the new Hulk movie? That's some Grade-A fanwink right there.

fanfiction

1. Put bluntly, fiction by the fans. Created by fans of any particular fandom, 50% of fanfiction is crap, 24% is non-crappy smut, 25% fits into the category of crap and smut, and the remaining 1% is some pretty good stuff.
2. Something English teachers don't like.

1. Trying to find a non-crap, non-smut fanfiction is a little like trying to mine for gold.
2. My friend's Star Wars fanfiction got an F in English class simply because it was fanfiction.

Fanfiction.net

One of the best website to read fanfiction. It used to be MUCH, MUCH better than it is today, but there was a number of unexplained or stupid decisions.

Decisions such as reinventing the search system when it was already good. Now you'll be lucky if any search you make with more than one word come up with accurate results. Other decisions include taking away NC-17 rating, banning stories about real life people, and banning stories that doesn't fit a certain format. What's the point of "unleashing your imagination" if your imagination is restricted?

Also, there are a number of website problems there. The usual and least believable explanation is something along the lines of "server upgrade".

Despite this, people don't have much choice because FF.Net still has the most stories and the best interface.

Guy browsing FF.Net: Hmm, what? No more NC-17 stories because kids are reading it? JESUS CHRIST! So R-rated stories are BETTER?!

fangina

(pronounced fang-gina)
A combination of the words "fang" and "vagina" used to describe:
1) a person who kills the libido (i.e. a human chastity belt).
2) literally a vagina with fangs.

That woman is so much of a fangina that she makes me cut my wrists at night.
