fan

Note to Self:

Fans wear hats with logos and go out into freezing weather shirtless and covered in paint.  They reschedule special occasions because they are busy living vicariously through the local hometown sports team.  So, you might want to be careful about when you use the word fan.  For example, "I'm glad we're getting rid of torture.  I'm not a fan of torturing enemies."  I doubt that anyone, even proponents of harsh interrogation techniques is a "fan of torture." No one pulls out a beer and some Kettle Korn, paints their bodies in red, white and blue and then chants out slogans during water boarding sessions. (Except, perhaps, Dick Cheney.)

Sincerely:
John
