Let me just make sure I got this straight:
If someone dresses up in Hobbit robes, wears Klingon makeup, or sits in line overnight for tickets to the next Star Wars movie, they’re automatically a basement-dwelling geek with no life and deserving of ridicule for their fascination with an imaginary universe.
If someone dresses up in an official Dallas Cowboys football outfit, paints their face up in the Cubs’ colors, or sits in line overnight for tickets to the next Lakers game, they’re a man’s man with a healthy interest in sports and deserving of admiration for their loyalty and devotion to the team.
And these two things are nothing alike. Is that how that works?
you’re just bitter because you sat in line for 3 straight days eating PBJs and reading the same Stephen King novel over and over to get tickets for Episode I; “Attack of the Terrible Writers Block.”
If you had been cool like one of those football dudes, you would have realised long ago that your boyhood obsession with Star Wars is based upon the fact that you were forced to watch the Wizard of Oz as a young child…Hmmmm,… tinman, C3PO…tinman, C3PO.
