Warbandit, that is true...people immediately follow the crowd without giving a seconds thought. Others who are 'different' stick out in society and are automatically cast out until they submit to what is the trend...only then will they be 'normal'. That is why many of us can relate to Ron...his popular qoute, 'Never Be Normal", which is proudly presented at the top of RS.net's homepage and is well renouned in the Kimmunity is what really allowed us to open up to each other and admit, "hey, we've been cast out of our community because we're not normal!" But now, when we talk to each other on here, we see that there's a flaw with such mentalities...because we're actually average people with average ways of thinking, except we have something the others don't...and that's pride! Bravo! That's true.

Well, being their friend is a start. Then try simple talks about KP and introduce them more eps of KP. Once they are in the influence of KP, you both will share a "common interest" .. then, there's nothing to stop them from turning back! heh, heh...yeah, but I was kind of thinking more in the sense of attracting people online!

Personally, I don't keep it much of a secret. At any given time I'll be doodling KP in my notebook or even watching an episode on the go. So it'd be easy to find that I was a KP fan. My question is how would people know you guys are fans? Do you do anything to let the world know? How would you know if someone was a fan?

I say a lot of things that would be closely related to the show. I'm also an amazingly a lot like Ron so I use that to my advanatge at times.

I know one person who watched it. But a fan? No, don't think so.
And I can't allow myself to shout it out.

I'm a fan! I'm not ashamed. I have all my DVDs where people can see them. I always list it as one of my favourite TV series...

I am a Kim Possible fan who loves Metallica and supports Liverpool Football Club. Unique, no? Well, I never hide the fact that I like KP. I proudly display my KP collectibles in my room, and show them to all my friends who comes over to my house. I have a KP wallpaper on my laptop, and I also use the "Kimmunicator" beep as my incoming message notification. Sometimes, I tease my mates by playing "Its Just You" on my guitar once in a while during breaks while jamming with my mates. LOL! ;D I have some friends who likes KP, but most of them get any updates on KP from me. I told them about rs.net.....so far only one of them joined but has yet to post anything here.

I'm very open about it. If somebody asks me, what is your favorite tv show, I'll say Kim Possible, The Golden Girls, and Will & Grace.

There's no way someone can know you're fan...even though I wore a black t shirt and grey/bage cargos for a good year and a half, people never noticed.
I went today with a group of friends I met in high school to the mall. When we went to a CD store I picked up Kim Possible what's the swtich and bought it...even though I don't have a PS2. I feel bad because it's a pirated copy...I couldn't afford the original (170 riyals) and anyway I'm only gonna play it for a while at a friend's house...if he doesn't mind!
We moved on to a store that sells original games and I asked for Kim Possible again, just to hold it in my hands...it was beautiful! ;D
One of them told me, "Dude, what's with you and Kim Possible?" I told him simply without hesitation, "I'm a fan!" Later, we left the store and I'm holding the cd in my hand, "You do know that if it wasn't for the fans this game wouldn't have come out?" the same guy replied, "yeah really!?" "yep, it's us the fans that made it happen!"
then we moved on. But I still intend to buy the original...just for the satisfaction of knowing I have one.

I'm very open about it. If somebody asks me, what is your favorite tv show, I'll say Kim Possible, The Golden Girls, and Will & Grace. You know, i thought you liked the GILLMORE GIRLS for a long time, AShley. I always get Golden Girls and Gillmore Girls mixed up. But, I'm dyslexic, so whatever. Anywho, I'm pretty open about my KP fandom. I don't go around telling people I like it, but if someone asks I tell them yeah. And i buy merchandise in public (although, I think the Wal-Mart and Toys' R Us employees think I'm running out of girl cousins with birthdays ;D), but other than that I"m just your average ordinary KP fan. I'm pretty much the same way with 24 and CSI. But, I do know a LOT of KP fans. KP is big up here! Well, not as much as cheese and beer, but still big!

My senior year of High school, i knew 6 people all my age (at the time) who liked the show, and most of which talked about it more than i did! Aw, lucky you, then. I have yet to meet KP-fans that I'm not related to I dont care what people think I can scream to the world I'M A RAVING KP FAN!!!!! Lol, that's great! More power to you, and I'm with ya. But the issue isn't showing that you're a fan, the issue is whether or not there are other fans out there, and how to tell if they are if they aren't as open as you are...

I have yet to meet KP-fans that I'm not related to Yea, but they are all in different colleges, and i know no one in my college who likes the show one of my friends though does seem to always stay in the room and watch Kim if i have it on. So, maybe he is a small fan

Turn that friend into a raving fan while you still have the chance! ;D Leave KP running 24/7 and invite them over

I was secretive about being a KP fan for about a year after I found the show.
My mother didn't even know for a while. One day while watching one of my tapes, she just came into the room and sat down next to me (laid down actually) and we watched Queen Bebe, a few halfies and stuff. I'm pretty sure that was the summer of '04 or so, because I know I showed her Rewriting History the day that it came out.

My question is how would people know you guys are fans? Do you do anything to let the world know? How would you know if someone was a fan? People know I'm a KP/AD when they look at my sketch book. Then they ask. "Why are you into these shows?" I just say, "Because I want to be. I don't have to folow the norm."

I'm the only hardcore fan I know. But my friend recently, upon realizing that I liked KP, said that he'd actually watched a few episode with his siblings and found it 'cool'!

ther's at least 3 people in my co-hort at school that know abut KP, and one of them is a fan, but not a huge one. Also there are a few kids in my firstgrade practicum classroom that know about Kim Possible
