Okay. :-) Also, is there a resource for determining whether a common trope is actually canon or fanon? I know there's got to be some sort of canon hierarchy, as there used to be with Star Wars (aka, movies had precedence, then press releases and interviews with Lucas, spin-off media and the separate/alternative Legends continuities, in that order), so I'm pretty sure that if a spin-off source contradicts an in-episode reference the episode takes precedence, but what takes precedence if two spin-offs contradict each other? There are also conversations I've had with fellow fans where I can't verify some of the things they mention--is there some sort of resource for determining what's canon and what's merely rampant fanon? I sometimes write fanfiction, both in print format and for a fan film (which I am desperately hoping works out, because it would be the absolute coolest thing I'd have done,) which is part of the reason why I'm concerned about finding the difference between fact and urban legend. Sorry if the comment was unclear. I sometimes have difficulty in expressing myself. It makes me wish I knew more than one language and could converse with people in multiple languages.
