Change to a Tag
May. 14th, 2013 03:22 pmAfter reading this
month_of_meta contribution from
tree, I've decided to stop using the word "pimping". I've changed my tag to "plugging", and future posts may Announce, Plug, Point To, Tout, or Boost whatever squeeful fandom happening is happening.
Personally, although I'm well aware of the origins of the word, to me, as used by fandom, it's so entirely filled with joyous connotations that it has never bothered me. And it won't bother me in the future when it appears on my reading page.
I'm just inviting you to read the meta and the comments, and decide for yourselves. :-)
