i had a really long thing here about the internet spoiling you for your life, but what i really meant to say was hee! and also, i avoid meeting celebrities because i feel that i've been spoiled for all the good parts.
also, re: age skews in rps... i'm not sure that agree with you about that skew. i haven't conducted extensive research, but the popslash writers that i have been reading (oh the SHAME! these last few months are full of SHAME!) seem to fall along roughly the same age lines that i see in other fandoms. granted, there are a lot of younguns, but there are a hell of a lot of 15 year old btvs fans, so i'm not sure it's the rpf thing. and there is also a ton of really good fic. sometimes i think that the percentage of good fic remains constant no matter the size or type of fandom, it's just a question of how easy it is to find it.
