Summarise/give vague clues to 10 of your fandoms in one sentence, then see who on your friendslist can guess each fandom.
Many of these are hopelessly obscure, and I could have written ten more. Maybe another time.
1. The only fandom that makes me wish we really did have a Flat Earth. - Discworld. Guessed by
rionaleonhart
2. Zombies; LOTS of zombies; like, huge amounts of them... also an epic tale about finding your place in the world, but mainly zombies.
3. Giant gay men, crossdressing, tentacle porn, bestiality, giant robots, mad scientists, zombies, alien viruses: it's the fandom that has everything, and most of it is canon. - FFVII, crack in a hat. Guessed by

4. But I don't liiiike that canon!...Oh well, you can ignore the bits you don't like, right? - Star Wars. Oh, space you, EU haters. Matthew Stover is so much smarter than you anyway. Guessed by
firefly99
5. A dude, a chick, an old guy and a head voice; they - er - Prince of Persia. Who needs to fight crime when you can fight TIME? ...I'll be over here now.
squeemu
6. The witty cynic wittily says a cynical witticism, cynically, and then steals things. - Thief. "Heh! A throne room. How pretentious." Garrett, you lovable bastard. Guessed by
squeemu
7. Despite what you may have heard, this is not Trigun. - Firefly/Serenity. Yeah, apparently Joss stole everything from Trigun. He said so himself. Every scene ever. Guessed by
squeemu
8. ...Yeah, I don't think therapy is going to fix that. - Silent Hill 2, and mainly poor James. Don't worry, the fangirls still love you. Guessed by

9. Some stuff happens, then some more stuff happens, and then some other stuff happens, and then the world blows up, but nobody likes that one. - Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and yes, I would be one of the people who pretends that Mostly Harmless never happened. Guessed by
blue_oceandeep
10. It's in a perfectly ordinary school with some perfectly ordinary students and yet it is the crackiest thing I've ever seen in my life. - Azumanga Daioh, prozac for the soul. Guessed by
squeemu
ETA: You know what? Just for fun, here's some more. I should be revising and I need to take my mind off horrible impending exams. Think of them as bonus fandoms.
11. This fandom taught me more about the Cold War than my entire Year 11 Modern History unit. - MGS3. I'm assuming they left out the man covered in bees. Guessed by
firefly99
12. Man, when they say not to touch that button that's labelled 'press this for interdimensional alien invasion', they mean do not touch the button that's labelled 'press this for interdimensional alien invasion'...
13. He doesn't mope, he broods; way too stylish to mope. - Neil Gaiman's Sandman. Well, he has a gigantic gothic castle and dumping rain and a trenchcoat at will - do you have that when you brood? Guessed by
blue_oceandeep
14. "CHRIST, IS ANYONE IN THIS DAMN WORLD ACTUALLY ALIVE?" - FFX. Ah, Seymour, how I cheered when I finally killed you properly. Guessed by
firefly99
15. Cyborg zombies. - Hungry City Chronicles. Obviously. Guessed by
