Fandom is full of the dumbest smart people evar, I swear. Or maybe just the most pedantic. It's an endemic problem when you get a bunch of literate, opinionated people together who write their problems out and feel a lingering sense of guilt that they're not out there solving the Big Issues. And every time I think I've reached the Fandom Zen point

Also? What are Aqua Dots?
Also, also? Joss. ... Nah. Not gonna go there. You already know what I'm gonna say. In sum: We'd agree with fandom if it were right.
TOMORROW!!

Aqua Dots are some toy where you drop these bead things onto a pattern and when you spray them with water they hold that shape. I only know this because, ummm, I might be known to watch Nickolodeon in the middle of the afternoon.
If only fandom were as right as we are there would be no more world hunger. *snerk*

I will never understand the Whedon worship. It's it the same inexplicable class as Rowling love. I don't get it.
The poop thing on South Park is one of the few things I always find funny. Although they DO drive it into the ground.

I've never understood why anyone feels the need to prostrate him/herself before any creator. I mean, I love Tolkien and I truly respect his work but I don't worship at his altar or anything like that. The, 'so-and-so can do no wrong' mentality is simply anathema to me.
It's just, I find poop to be inherently disgusting in a completely irrational way. It's kinda like fungus. I hate fungus, the very thought of it makes me shudder, so seeing Mr. Hanky jumping around getting crap all over everyone makes me a little bit nauseous. I'm a little neurotic, I know. ;-)

Come on, Bono being grown out of a giant turd was funny!

Dude, Bono being a giant turd was fucking hysterical. As was the "couric" system of measurement. I hope Matt&Trey never stop getting high in their hot tub and making Very Special "Emmy Award Winning" Episodes.

My cousin's absolute adoration of Kevin Smith is disturbing. He memorizes entire podcasts and will perform them for you, with voices, at the drop of a hat. I haven't the heart to tell him I am utterly uninterested.
That said, Whedon, who has driven X-fans mad with his glacial production of the supposed premier title Astonishing X-Men, has finally given a payoff that made this Cyke fanboy squee. So I shall not speak of my ever-growing disdain for showrunners and writer-creator "deities". The closest I currently will say is that I maintain that I am a student of Professor Tolkien, despite not writing in the genre he inadvertently spawned.
