A fannish-type meme

I yoinked from quietprofanity:

In the comments, leave me one of your fandoms that I'm NOT in, and I'll attempt to summarize it to the best of my ability.

(For non-fannish sorts, you may also leave, I don't know, a political tendency or musical style or some such.)

I am not really in any fandoms anymore.

I have actually seen Ghost in the Shell but I still couldn't tell you what it was about. It turned out to have much more swearing than was appropriate to show my Anime Club, which was largely composed of 9th graders at the time. The club, I mean, not the show. I didn't see any 9th graders in the show. There were cyborgs and they were pretty hot.

Add a lot of violence and transhumanism, and that's basically it, yeah.

It says something about what my normal speech is like that I was all "It's not got much sweari--oh wait."

GitS had swearing??

Lots of "shit"s and "damn"s, because these are, after all, soldier-types, and they get shot at a lot. Batou calls someone a "stupid dickhead" in the movie dub, too. It's mild by my standards, but probably not something a teacher should be showing high school freshmen.
