I enjoyed the parodies for a couple years without making them, or even ever commenting on any of them. I have always been a shy person most of the time, and I didn't feel like I had a place in making anything. I think of ideas, but don't normally make them. I kind of felt like making these parodies was an exclusive club type thing and there wasn't a place for me. This was my own emotional and psychological barrier I made and not an actual issue, but it did keep me from doing it. I've always had confidence issues. I only started making them after this site was created, but I also hadn't known about the other forum previously. I had a burst of confidence after actually meeting some people who not only knew what the parodies are but also make some. I believe I mentioned wanting to start, and was told that I should. So I ended up making one of my own. Krebs has a Sore Finger being the first one that I will actually count. I had a moment of realization that I'll never know if it will work out unless I try, and unless I get involved. So I made some and I'm feeling pretty good about it now. I'm still new and improving, but I'm enjoying the ideas and the ability to actually try and make the ideas happen instead of hoping someone else will.
Edit: oh my. Sorry about the longer post! I'm a writer as a hobby and I can tend to say a lot more than necessary.
