Plus, it's also 'nerdy' in the sense that you sort of have to have spent a lot of time on the Internet in order to hop on board with the storytelling. I've got a friend who likes fantastical, long, wacky stories, and I thought about telling her to read Homestuck. And then I realized she doesn't go online much, never uses IM, probably doesn't have any idea what a 'troll' is, and would get really bored slogging through hundreds of pages of chatlogs.

Sometimes you just want to read a straightforward novel, or a comic, or a play, or watch a show, or listen to music, and not try to wade your way through some out-there chimerical piece of work with its tentacles in all five and then some. I think Homestuck works best for people who are immersed in the onslaught of information that being on the Internet gets you. The constant jumping from thread to thread, & (somewhat) from medium to medium.

...errr, if that makes any sense. Wow I appear to want to blather on about this. Thus outing myself as the kind of colossal nerd who loves Homestuck, I guess. xD

I think this is the most coherent and understandable explanation for Homestuck and how it might or might not appeal to someone that I've ever read, don't feel bad. XD
