Are you a ‘fangirl’?

"脑残粉 (nǎo cán fěn, fangirl)" is a term used to describe extreme excitement over a certain fandom. For example, if you were a Hunger Games fan, and a new trailer came out, you might start fangirling, or freaking out from extreme excitement. "花痴" refers to a rabid breed of human female who is obesessed with either a fictional character or an actor.

"脑残粉"用来形容对自己钟爱的"迷文化"的极度兴奋状态。比如，你是《饥饿游戏》的死忠粉，最新预告片出来后，你就要开始"犯花痴"了，或者会"亢奋到崩溃"。"花痴"指的是对某个虚幻角色或演员明星无限_痴迷的女生。

Below are the 14 levels of being a fangirl. What's your level?

下面来看看"脑残粉"的14种境界，你修炼到哪级了？

Casual Fangirl 

路人粉

This show is pretty good. You're definitely going to see the sequel to that movie. The actors and actresses are talented, attractive individuals. 

这部剧不错，你当然会关注续集。男女主角都很有才，也很有个人魅力。

Fangirl Lite 

冷静粉

Actually, this show is excellent. Is there fanfiction? You won't leave the cast photo as your screensaver for that long. You needed a new one anyway. 

讲真，这部剧很精彩。有同人小说吗？但你也不会把演员照片当屏保太久，也会换张新的。

Self-Aware Fangirl 

默默粉

Yes, you've watched the trailer ten times just to make sure you caught all the subtext. And maybe occasionally paused on close-ups of the leads' faces — just to see what their facial expressions said about the plot. But you're not going to tell anyone about it. 

是的，这部预告片你已经看了不下十遍，以便搞清楚所有的弦外之音。或许你偶尔还会特别留意下主演面容的特写，就为了看看他们的表情能透露啥剧情。但你不会跟别人讲。

Collector Fangirl 

收藏粉

You just need a T-shirt with that one quote on it. And maybe a sticker of your favorite character. And an exact replica of that ring they found in that one episode. 

你想要一件写着某句台词的T恤衫。或者你钟爱人物的贴纸。或者某个情节中发现的戒指的仿真品。

Fangirl Denial 

克制粉

The next movie in the series came out, and you read that the actors are trying not to laugh at an inside joke in the last scene. And when the lead actress pointed in the first scene what did she really mean? Maybe you should talk about something else. 

电影续集要播出了，你发现在最后一幕中，男演员似乎难掩对一个圈内笑话的笑容。第一幕中女主角到底想说啥？也许你该谈点儿别的了。

Fangirl Submission 

想说拒绝好难

You know your friends are sick of hearing about your fandom. You know you should talk about something else, but the feels are too overwhelming. You have to share them with someone. Anyone. 

你的朋友已经厌倦了听你"犯花痴"，你知道的。你知道你应该谈点儿别的，但想谈花痴对象的感觉太强烈了，你必须和别人分享这种情绪，不管是谁。

Overtaken Fangirl 

彻底沦陷粉

The story is just so perfect: the lines, and the way the characters say the lines with their mouths and their voices. How is anyone talking about anything else?! 

故事非常完美：台词，剧中角色念台词的语调和样子，怎么还有心思谈其他的呢？！

Apologetic Fangirl 

忏悔粉

You realize you've been a bit obsessive and you feel it's time to apologize to your non-fandom friends for trying to drag them into it. 

你意识到自己过于着迷了，感到要向非花痴朋友们道歉，因为你总是试着把他们"拉下水"。

Fangirl Community 

脑残粉大本营

You discover message boards and fanblogs. There is a whole slew of people just like you. 

你发现了留言板和花痴博客，这里的花痴们都和你差不多。

Analytic Fangirl 

细节帝脑残粉

After watching that one scene for the hundredth time, the line repeated two seasons later totally makes sense! Did anyone else catch how the lead said "hey" to his lady friend? They are so in love. Everything makes sense. 

在观看了同一场景100遍之后，你发现两季之后重复出现的一句台词很有意义！还有人关注到主角对他的女性朋友说哈喽的方式了吗？他们肯定深爱着。一切事物都有其含义。

Judgmental Fangirl 

批判型脑残粉

This is a level many will skip, as fandoms are supposed to support the community. But if someone doesn't know the name of the restaurant in episode 203? Judging you. 

这是很多人会跳过的等级，因为花痴们总要拥护自己的花痴群体。但如果有人不知道第203集里面饭馆的名字？抗议！

Raging Fangirl 

暴怒粉

EVERYTHING IS FANDOM AND EVERYTHING HURTS AND CAPLOCKS ARE THE ONLY WAY TO PROPERLY EXPRESS ALL YOUR EMOTIONS.

一切都与花痴有关。为了准确表达你全部的花痴心情，一切都要让路。

Unapologetic Fangirl 

拒绝一切反对声音

Your fandom is the best fandom. Your characters are the best characters. You are not interested in hearing from anyone who disagrees. 

你的花痴对象是最好的，你所钟爱的角色是最棒的。谁说个"不"你都不爱听。

Fangirl Exhaustion 

极品粉

Completely obsessing over a piece of pop culture can be tiresome, and sometimes you just need a break. Unfortunately that's not going to happen, because there are GIFs to be made and fan art to be drawn. 

彻头彻尾地痴迷于某种流行文化也会很烦，有时你需要休息一下。不幸的是这从未发生过，因为总有GIF要做，总有偶像的画要去画。

Whatever you're level may be, it's OK. People offline might not understand your devotion, but the internet understands. 

不管你到了哪个花痴级别，都OK。线下的朋友们也许不理解你的花痴精神，但网络能懂。
