Do You Know How Old These Famous People Were When…

Fabulous! Don\'t forget to share with your friends on Twitter and Facebook.

1. You have so much love for a given fandom that all you want to do is share it all with your friends and family.

3. Then you begin to figure out what exactly you’re going to introduce them to.

4. You try to convince them that this is the right path.

5. They agree, so it’s time to show them the first episode.

9. Or show them episodes that don’t make any sense because it’s 3+ seasons away.

They probably won’t get it because they *just* watched the first episode…

12. You have to fight with all of your heart not to spoil anything whilst answering questions.

“Wait does he die too?” *Fights to resist urge*

14. If it’s not their cup of tea, despite being disappointed, you move on and find new candidates for your fandom.

15. Though if they’ve fallen in love, it makes you the happiest person on earth.

16. It’s time to start re-devouring everything with them.

17. And you even agree to start watching episodes from your friend’s favorite show because you’re so thankful for their awesomeness.

18. At the end of the day you feel a sense of pride for successfully recruiting another brave soul into your beloved fandom.
