| droid n. | 1952 Robots of the World! Arise! in Worlds of If July 76/2 ‘Find out anything?’ ‘Yeah. Plenty. Our androids are busy, all right. They’re out in the city, every one of them. We've had a dozen police reports already.’ ‘Police reports! What’s wrong?’Jack shook his head. ‘It’s crazy. They’re swarming all over Carron City.They're stopping robots in the streets—household Robs, commercial Droids, all of them. They just look at them, and then the others quit work and start off with them. The police sent for us to come and get ours.’ |
| earthrise n. | 1953 The Statue in Worlds of If Jan. 81/1 It had become almost a ritual with us these last few years, staying up night after night to watch the earthrise. |
| fanarchist n. | 1955 Fandora’s Box in Imagination Apr. 120/1 I enjoyed reading it, but I didn’t agree at all. Guess I’m no Fanarchist at heart. To me, a soapbox makes a poor typewriter stand. |
| fanette n. | 1953 Fandora’s Box in Imagination Dec. 153/2 The issue of girls in fandom is taken up with someone on the editorial staff writing ‘What’s Wrong With All-Girl Fan Clubs?’ And Marian Cox, founder of the all-fanne club, the Fanettes, writes in their defense. A lively controversy. |
| fan fiction n. | 1952 Fandora’s Box in Imagination July 145/2 I like fan fiction. I don’t expect it to be professional, and can therefore be happily uncritical…. I read fan fiction for fun, and I even enjoy every cliche, as long as the spirit behind it is fresh. |
| space-born adj. 1 | 1952 Empty Bottle in Worlds of If Sept. 43/2 It was the space-born ones who were doing most of the talking. The children, the young people, the people no longer young but still born since the voyage started, still looking upon Earth more as a wonderful legend than as their own place of origin. |
