For many years, being a nerd or geek to me meant something special. Then all of a sudden being a nerd was cool. I thought, "Great, I guess this means the world would accept me more now and that I wouldn't have to hide my interests and hobbies in the closet any longer." But now that "Nerd" and "Geek" are far more cooler and into the pop culture lexicon as positives, I see more and more stupid fights break out between the nerd and geek community.
It's almost to the point where I can't reveal to Star Trek fans that I love Lord of the Rings and Star Wars too. I think the thing that tore it for me was when I saw a Trekkie get into a fist fight with a Furry at a comic convention one time.
Can't we all just get along? I mean it's time for nerds and geeks to unite and stop ourselves from becoming what we hate the most which was the higher status quo of jocks, rich folks that didn't earn their money or the beautiful model types that we couldn't have that taunted and teased us. We all need to ban together and fight this. Not just against what we fought against, but fight that inner hate within our circles. Can't we all just get along...
Haha, i got into lots of the "geek" franchises before I even knew about all the different communities that fought each other. And I used to think it was just rumors that people actually spent so much time arguing over which were better. I guess they do though...it's quite ridiculous really.

It's always cloudy except when you look into the past Sherlockian Hetalian Potter-head Hunger Games <3 Trekkie Star Wars LOZ Avatard History freak Yeah I'm a nerd.
really interesting comic talks about the reality of some fandoms that seems to happen especially on the internet, that is very typical and now I have much experience in that in comundades internet and that is very annoying often, plus I also what prejudice like the fans and it seems that thanks to these dumb fanboys and fan: S and also I sometimes consider myself a fan of otaku and other things without any extreme and all that good was good your comic.
Let them do what they want, whatever floats their boat. I'll go around and try the best of everything, I'm just not going to waste my time fighting about it.

Do yourself a savor, mbosn: NEVER get in touch with the "Touhou" fandom. Those people are CRAZY. They will destroy you over the pettiest of things.
