Fanshone

A collective group of individuals who make up a social construct within the context of the post-modern American suburb. Usually, the persons who populate the fanshone participate in community endeavors, encourage free thought and creativity, advocate for the betterment of the community through culturally and intellectually enriching experiences, and in some sense serve as the "guardians" of said community against the destruction of civilization brought about by venture market capitalism and the mass media-induced stupification of society. One might even say, not so much in a legal sense but more in a humanitarian world view, the fanshone consists of individuals who are "good American citizens," that is, they are literally beneficial to the very fiber of American life. Though somewhat more nebulous, another means of discerning members of the fanshone is the perception of a golden aura which radiates from within them. This aura is a feeling one undeniably senses when in the presence of such a person, a kind of transcendental warmth and beauty which only comes from a talented, interesting, kind, benevolent, luminous being. Historical buildings, cultural institutions, community groups, religious organizations, and local leaders and innovators are all additional integral pieces of the greater fanshone network. Many times, the downfall of the fanshone in any community heralds the impending descent of the town into nothing more than a forgotten ghost-town outpost. Perhaps the easiest way to visualize the meaning and life cycle of the fanshone in a given community is to borrow a metaphor from astronomy. Consider the sun - when it burns brightly and provides life and warmth and truth to the solar system, one considers the solar system en masse to be healthy- However, such a star will inevitably exhaust its fuel supply, swell briefly, then collapse in on itself to become a neutron star; a black, cold, super dense mass of crystallized oxygen forever zooming through space. In the same sense, a community after the death of its fanshone is nothing more than a crystallization of its former essence, which hopelessly tries to emulate its once resplendent form, but ultimately fails in every possibly sense.

the public library, a community theater group, a voter registration drive, a wildlife preservation organization, a local festival, a historic landmark, a favorite deli or resteraunt, a thriving public education system, a food pantry, a religious group, a local concert... all are practical manifestations of the fanshone.

fanshit

A form of fansubbing so preposterous, it can only be described as shit. Things attributed to fanshits: mistranslation, bad timing, bad subtitle grammar, unreadable signs, and last, but not least, stretching 4:3 fullscreen video to 16:9 widescreen video, distorting the picture horribly. Usually a form of anime fansub; it can refer to any film or show that has fan-made subtitles of grotesque quality.

Steve: Did you see Aasasubs' K-on!, Queen's Blade and Pandora Hearts? Bob: No, but I heard it aired in fullscreen format only. Steve: That's just it, Aasasubs stretched the fullscreen video to 16:9 and blamed it on their "top secret program" they received from a TV company! Bob: Wow, they obviously don't produce fansubs, just fanshits.

Fanship

The level between being just a fan and being a friend of someone famous. This means the famous person enjoys hanging out with you and engages with you, but not personally enough to consider you a friend /yet/.

Youtuber: Just text me like you're talking to your friend. But I won't respond like him.
Fan: That's okay, it's just a fanship.

Fanshawe College

Fanshawe Community College is located in London, Ontario and somehow survives in the shadow of the city's main educational institution, UWO (University of Western Ontario). Fanshawe students are infamous for partying on any day of the week, receiving numerous tickets relating to overwhelming noise complaints, public drunkenness, selling alcohol without a license, etc... and spending more money paying off fines than on their tuition. Many fanshawe college students feel they have a rivalry with UWO students due to the simple fact that they are in the same city, examples are the females believing they are better looking, and males believing they have bigger dick, etc. The odd fact that everyone forgets is that the majority kids who didn't get into UWO went to colleges such as Fanshawe. As well, the few students who aren't complete morons realize that to have a decent future they will need to attend classes at a university such as UWO. In conclusion, Fanshawe is full of sluts and dicks, (and the odd guy who has his head on straight) who need to chill.

Female Fanshawe College student: "That UWO bitch is so stuck up, she'll only sleep with one guy at a time!"

Male Fanshawe College Student: "DUDE! I'm so drunk! Let's go jump some western kid who looks like he might have a lot of money!"

Fanshawe College Student: "I didn't have the marks to get into UWO so I ended up going to Fanshawe F'in College."
