I have always boggled at the appropriation of aspects of our identity by others to create virtual communities.
For example, we on NSC are all part of the football community. Apparently.
Private Eye used to run a mocking column called 'ongoing situations' (you can guess the rest).

Here I am launching the 'communities thread' (you can guess the rest).
Here is the opener for you.

I just heard someone on R5 refer to haemophiliacs as 'the bleeding community'.

Over to you.
Ahh this post is the work of a member of the “Time Rich Community”

Funnily enough I'm at an event in a presentation about group behaviour and culture at the moment where this has just been shown to describe the ways in which people evolve their membership of (mostly online) communities
