(Did you mean the [[FIJAGH (Ellington)|Dick Ellington apazine]] or [[FIJAGH (Forsgren)|Rune Forsgren fanzine]])?

"'''Fandom is Just a  Goddamn Hobby'''," [[initialism|initialized]] '''FIJAGH''' or '''FIJAGDH''' and pronounced "FEE-jag," is a [[fannish]] philosophy credited to [[Charles Burbee]] during [[Fifth Fandom]] in opposition to the then [[sercon]] [[FIAWOL]], "Fandom is a Way of Life." Today, the tongue-in-cheek motto serves as a reminder not to get too caught up in [[fannish]] doings that you neglect your real life or too agitated by [[feuds]] and the foibles of [[fen]]. 

In today's increasing online [[fandom]], we also begin to see "Fandom is Just a Goddamn Social Network."
