Can I just say

(Anonymous) 2015-04-15 02:25 am (UTC)(link)
It's fucking ridiculous to me how many debates and protracted in nerd&fandom places on the Internet just boil down to high school bullshit. Not even indirectly. Just people explicitly bitching about The Cool Kids. Between goddamn adults who are trying to be taken seriously, as well. Just endlessly recapitulating high school turf wars. Grown-ass adults who are just completely unable to see the world in any other terms. Fucking absurd and depressing.

Yep, and this is why I barely associated with nerd/geek culture and fandom anymore. I just enjoy my stuff, quietly, without any of the middle school drama.

The same can be said for most work places as well. People talk about how their work place is "the absolute worst" because it's "just like high school", but I've come to see that most situations when it comes to a group of people, it becomes just like high school all over again. You have people aching for attention and wanting credibility for their opinions and ideas, especially once you get to know the people around you. Things like this makes me feel anti-social. I don't want to socialize with people if it just results into people picking cliques and wanting to be "more popular" than someone they don't like. I'll keep the small number friends I have and do whatever we do together as it is, even though we tend to not be in the same fandoms because I just can't deal with social status and all that crap. So much easier to be an outsider doing my own thing.

I'm just waiting for the MLP/Steven Universe fandoms to have a gang war.

I never got WHY anyone would want to stay in high school forever, seeing as I couldn't WAIT to get out of there.
