Some people take it way too seriously and end up alienating potential audiences.
Just look at Rick and morty. It’s a decent comedy if you’re into crass humor. I’ll admit I have seen most seasons. But you’ll never see me wearing merch because I simply don’t want to be associated with the crowd who scream at fast food employees over meme sauce. I happily wear my live long and prosper shirt or the Mando shorts my wife bought me though.
Some fandoms just take a little more digging to find the super shitty people.
I’m using my phone data because my internet got turned off today, I haven’t eaten since lunch yesterday (mostly depression, not lack of food in the place), my wife is angry about money because I still haven’t found a job, my plans for the holidays are all but gone, and I have no medications or therapists available in the next 6months to help.
I usually enjoy TPM memes but this just isn’t it.
I do now realize what community I’m in, though. I wish you well.
“Have you tried just listening to what she’s quacking about? Or do you just tune it out.
It’s a marriage, Bro, you need to listen as much as you talk. Communicate. Hear what’s bothering her and you might be surprised how easy it is.
If you don’t, we’ll I guess your goose is cooked.”
I have my own pair of leggings because they’re comfy AF and if anyone wants to talk shit about that, two things: A, my wife bought them for me and that makes them EXTRA special, and 2: fuck off randy, the only reason you’re so butt hurt is because your massive insecurities prevent your ass from being caressed by a cloud.
