fanlistings

If you're curious as to what a fanlisting is, here's an explanation taken from tfl.org:
"A fanlisting is simply an online list of fans of a subject, such as a TV show, actor, or musician, that is created by an individual and open for fans from around the world to join. There are no costs, and the only requirements to join a fanlisting are your name and country. Fanlistings do not have to be large sites (although some are), they are just a place where you can sign up with other fans."

Guinea "Pig"?

Guinea pigs are in no way related to pigs. Possible explanations for them receiving this name is because of the sounds they make, which include squeaks, squeals, and whistles, that are similar to the noises pigs make. Also, the body structure of the guinea pig is identical to that of a pig. In addition, guinea pigs eat often, like pigs.
