The Geek Heirarchy.

And I know this is funny, and it made me giggle, but it made me think about something more serious.

Why do some people think what we do is so damn strange? Why is it that if you can name the 1966 England World Cup winning squad it's a really cool thing to be able to do, but if you can name every actor who has ever played Dr Who, it's all "Back away! Unclean! Unclean!"

Personally, I think more people should write gay porn. After all, just think of all the wars that wouldn't start because people were too busy trying to get Wesley and Angel in bed together *grin*

Also, go and tell [livejournal.com profile] _green_ she has to write Angel/breast-implants!Wesley. But don't tell her I sent you.

Nope. People who can name anyone from the '66 squad are either old or sad. Or both, as I generously told my Dad a while back. Not that he knows about the slash, but he sure knows about the fannishness. I don't think they've ever quite got past the Horsegirls.

Hell, people who can still name more than one person from last year's rugby international squad are on my 'sad people' list.

Watch them, next time. One up their geekitude with something better. Watch them squirm and acknowledge that it's pretty sad, being an armchair ref.
