Re: Casual/intense fan awkwardness

I have awkward moments all the time because I'm an awkward person.

I get a lot of comments on my R2-D2 purse and all I really know to say is, “Thank you!" when people tell me it's cute and they like Star Wars.

I guess that's really all that needs to be said, but I always feel like I should delve further, maybe ask what their favorite film is or something. The problem with that is, they might think I'm “testing" them, so...

I had an awkward moment once when I was carrying a Wheatley Laboratories messenger bag, where a man said he liked my bag and it looked familiar, but couldn't remember what it was from. I said Portal and then I think I said, “You know, GLaDOS?" and immediately regretted it because obviously Wheatley was on the bag and I was afraid I would confuse him further, lol.

That semi happened to me when I was waiting in line for TFA, but the man was so excited to talk to someone who knew what they were saying ("You know about Lawrence Kasdan!") and thanked me for the good conversation when it was time to go inside. I don't think you'd ask about the number of people on Hosnian Prime or something pedantic like that.

No, lol, definitely not. I'm afraid as much as I like Star Wars, I'm not all knowing and wouldn't expect others to know tons of trivia or be extensively informed on obscure info either. (It's awesome if they do and I'd be willing to listen, but hey.)

Having brief fandom conversations is fun and it helps when excitement and a friendly nature is involved, but it can get cringe worthy if someone asks you about something you have no clue about.

I'm not even a fan of Star Wars but I like the idea of an R2D2 purse anyway.

I've got comments on it from non-Star Wars fans too, because it's really unique and cute! Despite the fact that it's a bit small, I've never loved a purse more.
