What do all of your friends & siblings think of your autograph collecting? A lot of times my mom says that I'm "obsessed with celebrities" since I send so many letters, but, she is very happy for me when I get something in the mail. Some of my friends think I'm weird and celebrity obsessed for writing to celebrities, but, some of my friends think its cool and they want to do it too. Sorry if a topic like this has been posted before :roll:

My family don't really pay attention to my hobby unless I get a really big name. My boss is very good though. She knows what I do so she gives me all the free stationary she gets from companies ttm. I haven't bought a notepad or envelopes in about three years {thumb2}

My parents and friends don't really take much interest in it xD Wheneer I mention it to my friends they don't see too interested, but my parents do get excited when I get one in the post :P

Most of my friends think it's pretty cool and they love to go through my giant binder of autographs. My family doesn't really care, though, unless it is someone they know.

As hard as it may be for you guys to believe, my parents don't know that I collect. Only my brother knows. :lol:

Haha, it's funny, my mom has been telling me for a week that she would take me to the UPS store to send my letters, and she still hasn't. And when I mention it to her she says "You're so obsessed" it makes me SO mad! I try to tell her that tons of people collect, but, she is all weird about it.

my mom & older sister thinks it's cool when i get a reply...they think it's a fun hobby, and have even asked me to write to some of their favorites for them :lol: but as far as my friends...i haven't mentioned much about it. i think they would probably think it's cool but weird! :roll:

My family aren't really bothered about it, but some of my friends like the idea.

A lot of my friends don't really see any point in TTM collecting, because its more fun to actually meet the people. Fair enough I think.

Theres a whole group of us who go to get IP's at football (soccer) matches every weekend now :D
