Truly, the most manchildren-filled of all my nerdy fannish entertainments ~

More so than video games? Or is gaming of all stripes lumped together?

Dude, you've seen the edition wars. You've seen the "OSR".

Do you really need to ask that question?

Just making sure. I know the Rockman fandom is batshit, for example, but you see more of that in action than I do.

Yeh, but there's batshit and then there's the all-pervading shoggothian madness and bile that is tabletop gamers.

Consider the freakout over those handful of paragraphs in the new Player's Handbook. Or how the fuckwits that stan for Mage: the Ascension are still fighting a deranged edition war over a decade since A:tAsc was ended as a line altogether.

Or my constant reports of despair from Exaltedland to the point that I, literally, have the well so poisoned that I can hardly stand to take a book off the shelf let alone read a page or two.

Yes, you're right. *pinches nose, rubs face, screams into hands* I try to block that shit, sometimes, in an effort to get it to roll off me. (Which we both know doesn't work.)

Clearly the counterattack will need to be as wtf as possible while pronking around Faerun and thumbing noses at the anal-retentive groggies over on Candlekeep ~

Man I wish Candlekeep hadn't fallen so deeply into the mire of ECCCCHH that it did. :/

Yeah, let's have fun and change continuity and flout canonical events. BOOYAH!
