Examples

“I am one of the few fans that still have a copy of Spacewarp, No. 1, Vol. 1. As a first issue it was about as sickly a mag as you could ask for, and the fellow that was editing it sounded like the ultimate in "goshwowoboyoboy" new fans. I frankly expected it to be the last issue, and didn't subscribe.”
“The names you cite are as familiar to me as they are to you, and as fondly remembered. But I also remember the crap, and the naive goshwowboyoboy attitude of fellow neo-phans. I remember it well because I suffered from it.”
“I'm letting one of the plot kittens out of the bag, but the book is such a delight that it'll do no serious harm if I tell you that it concerns a pulp science fiction editor who finds himself in a rip-roaring alien-plagued super-hero naked-heroine universe that exists in the mind of one of his goshwowboyoboy teen-aged readers.”
