Augh. People are dicks elsewhere and I want to punch them.
I just got accused of being elitist and making fun of football fans for saying "I don't follow football, but I've seen a lot of posts about today's game on FB." I suppose a case could be made that since I don't follow football that makes me elitist (if "elitist" means "I don't like literally everything that exists in equal measure"), but I don't see how that was making fun of anything.
(The exact comment made to me was "It's pretty elitist to make fun of football fans, considering you go on endlessly about comic book TV and movies." And the fact that I didn't answer FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING FUCK is a testament to my endless reserves of grace. How about "Point out where I made fun and also you're welcome to unfriend me if you don't want to hear about Arrow YOU FUCKING FUCKWEASEL ASSCLOWN."?)
I am perhaps a bit tense.
I am not sure this will hit the funny bone of many other people, but if you are familiar with Jesus Christ Superstar, this just made me laugh so hard I am weeping. [link]
I wash my hands I grab a new handtowel out of the drawer to dry my hands. Then I leave it in the living room.
You JUST noticed this???

Wow, Steph. What a...
Unfriend that person immediately.
Maybe I'm just old, but that kind of drama baiting is just intolerable to me.
Basically...let me treat you exactly as I'm accusing you of treating me so I can tell you how bad you are.
Screuum.
I saw your FB post and liked it. We can be elitist together and look down our noses at the
dickwads.
I find good natured football fans humorous. That may be elitist, but honestly, they're funny.
Also, I'm back at b.org for less than a week and already I'm using terms like
dickwad.
At least I figured out spoiler font again. I hope.
Did you delete the post, Steph?

Yeah, seriously. I mean, I genuinely don't give a crap if someone wants to make fun of me for being a comic-book media geek. Honestly. They could mock me to my face and I would just laugh. But apparently I have a problem when people mistake my genuine lack of knowledge for making fun of something. That right there is a comprehension problem on their part, not a dick move on my part.
I don't follow football, but I don't think people who do are mock-worthy. Come on. I'm posting on a board that started as a BTVS fan board. I don't mock fannishness, even when it's of something I myself am not a fan of.
Aims, it was a comment on someone else's post.
Their comment seems like a radical interpretation of the text of your comment, Tep.
