7 Quotations from Richard E. Geis
| condom n. | 1968 The Couch in Psychotic (#23) Jan. (unpaged) I suspect the old rules will be retained, in the end, and no great harm will come to fandom or condom. |
| croggling adj. | 1969 Response to Jack Williamson in Science Fiction Review (#32) Aug. 51/2 I like emotional involvement, strong opinion, and I’m not afeard to show my inner self, ugly as it sometimes is. So...as a reflection of my character and personality, SFR will continue to be wide open to informational letters and emotional tirades as well...with the hope that the tirades lead to some truth…or inspire it…or are simply croggling to read. |
| Denebian n. 1 | 1977 The Alien Viewpoint in Galaxy Aug. 115/2 I happen to know the Denebians will be visiting Earth in six years, and they look like four-foot peanuts with legs. |
| fankind n. | 1973 Recent Fan Magazines in Alien Critic (#4) Jan. 6/1 ‘Alter-Ego is always gentle, Geis. I purr with love for all fankind. I adore crudzines. I—’ ‘All right, Alter, quit the bullshit and get on with it.’ |
| sercon adj. | 1955 The Leather Couch in Psychotic (#18) Jan.–Feb. (unpaged) Two days ago I received a letter from Boyd Raeburn in which he defines his impression of a serious-constructive fanzine and wants me to please not make PSY into such a horrible thing. Since he associated a SerCon fanzine with fuggheadedness, I assured him that I had no intention of running a zine of that type. I ain't no fugghead. |
| Tuckerize v. | 1985 Brainz, Inc. in Science Fiction Review Fall 18/1 (review) There is some delicious Tuckerizing in this novel, too: a lecture room named after Harlan Ellison, and there is a dread disease called Malzberg’s Syndrome which causes increasing lugubriousness in its helpless victims. |
| unfannish adj. | 1953 2nd Session in Psychotic (#5) Nov. (unpaged) At this point a request for material…. If the writer honestly thinks it is good and up to high writing standards, and would go well in P, then by all means, send it. It does not have to be fannish. Indeed, I think I’d welcome something un-fannish. |
