On the Rabidity of Certain Fanbases.
See, the thing with Trek fen? We're patient, after a fashion, and that fashion is this:
"I will wait, but you had BETTER NOT SCREW WITH ME once the wait is over."
We don't like it. Really.
We will not watch your Enterprise, and we do not care if that guy from Quantum Leap is in it. In general, we're sharp to go with that reclusive bent the others make such fun of, and that sharpness will keep us from pouring ad dollars down your sinks for the most part.
You treat my captain with the respect he deserves, and I'll follow you into hell singing your anthem with a smile. You fuck with me, I'm gone, and I don't look back.
I'm a Browncoat. I'm not a Whedonist/Whedonite. (Yes, there's a difference.)
I'm whatever odd word this fellow would call MK fen, and it is the only game-derived fandom for which I have ever felt a devotion comparable to the Trek thing.
It was really something awesome, recently. Boon was all "so this is canon" and MK fen cut eyes at him and more or less said "if it is, we walk" and now it's not canon.
Yeah. We scare our fandom's co-founder.
I think I'd care more about Shoryuken.com's opinion of us if their userbase were less fascinated with abortion-by-staircase. XD
