  • Through Darkest Mundania: Adventure in the Mundane Zone (see image on this page) (1985, multifandom, gen, Peacock Press, non-fiction fan accounts of being a fan in a less-than-friendly world, "Your parents will never understand why you can't outgrow STAR TREK.

Friends who've decided to "grow up" (gafiate) write you off as hopeless because you're "just too weird" for them anymore.
