Get the skoshi mug.a Slasher is a millennial term that refers to a person of any age that adopts a frame of mind that revolves around personal success, personal fulfillment, and financial gains. They are limitless and don’t like settling for one job or career path. They pursue their life’s biggest passions and make money doing so. Most slashers are either active or dormant entrepreneurs that understand the importance of maximizing their time by filling their lives with experiences that bring them a great deal of satisfaction and joy. Slashers come from all walks of life, and are also referred to as “hustlers”/ “work-a-holics”. Although it is not a requirement for slashers to be work-a-holics , they are prone to work endlessly in pursuit of accomplishing their goals because of their thirst and hunger for success &/or personal fulfillment. Like the name suggests they go through life slashing their way through their dreams and goals.

In British slang, it means to urinate.
A famous guitarist.
A genre of fanfiction in which two characters are engaged in a homosexual love affair. The name comes from the slash between the two characters featured; Kirk/Spock, Sam/Frodo, Pippin/Merry, and so forth. Gay male pairings are usually referred to as yaoi, and especially with anime.
Femslash or femmeslash is used when the couple is a lesbian couple; Arwen/Eowyn, Galadriel/Luthien, et cetera. Yuri is the term used for femmeslash in anime.
Slash ranges in subject matter from innocent crushes to passionate, endearing love to explicit erotica. The story can also range from perky and humorous to dramatic and angsty to heartbreakingly tragic, and have a sweet to harsh quality.
Although gay males are often thought to be the main writers of slash, young, heterosexual women are the ones who write most of the slash... thus becoming good friends of gay men.
Since straight men are often turned on by lesbian erotica, why not straight women being turned on by gay male erotica?

Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Highlander, among other works, are fertle grounds for slash writers. LOTR, with the intimacy and love between the male characters, is especially rich with slash material.

It started when Lii decided that her life had become way too centered around something that didn't accomplish anything, and gave it up. She was born a new woman.
The original and traditional period to fast is the month of October, starting on Bloody Sunday (the last Sunday in September) and ending on All-Slashers Day, which is Halloween. All-Slashers Day is not usually full of feasting and parties, for the transition of normal human being to rabid fangirl takes time.
Other months work also, depending on your events. October doesn't work well due to intense popularity of The Rocky Horror Picture Show during this month. Late Spring could be an option, but it hasn't been tested.
