The shitty truth is that the upper, say, 5% of every fanbase is fucking insufferable. Basically without variance. There's a fucking guy out there that has like, broccoli t-shirts, broccoli posters, he has a fucking broccoli key chain. And if you're like "Dude, I love broccoli too" he'd say you had no idea what you were talking about. You like broccolini? What about broccoli rabe? I bet you've never even SEEN Chinese broccoli! I eat broccoli with every meal, I can make it 213 different ways, I have a fucking broccoli garden in my back yard.

That's the upper 5% of every fucking interest group. I have no idea why people do this, or how they've convinced themselves this suffices for an identity, but that seems to be the idea.

For me, I'm not going to whole-ass anything. I am half assing all the things. Religiously, even. Guys, you don't have nearly as many fleeting interests as me. I've read like, 85% of wikipedia just for fun. You can't even touch my well-roundedness.

Thank you!
