One of the oldest gay ships in history. Yes, children of the fandom system... these are our roots... our heritage... And now a short poem for the great poet who started it all: Homer, perhaps we'd be in a different world to-day/ had you not made the Iliad so ridiculously gay/ Patroclus and Achilles are in love; I believe it to be true/ for those who deny it or say they're just friends, I know they believe it too

Fangirl Alpha: OMG have you seen the new fanart for Patrochilles?

Fangirl Beta: No?! Send me the link!

Fangirl Epsilon: I don't know how people can deny they are a thing. Achilles calls him 'my Patroclus' WAAAAAY too many times for that to only be subtext.

Fangirl Beta: I know right?!

grebo

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
