This so describes Trek fans...

...though it's an article about RPG fandom:

Killjoy cooking with the D&D crowd.

Sad but true.

It isn't a root beer float unless you use IBC Root Beer. I won't tolerate a root beer float with BARQ'S!!! IT MUST HAVE IBC!!!

 

[Philo]

Clearly, you meant A&W.

Why do you even post about root beer floats when you obviously hate them so much?

 

[Admiral Buzzkill]

In my day we drank Hires out of the bottle and we liked it that way!

Damn overindulged kids.

Posted: 12:15 a.m. by LordOrcus I'm so mad that there's a new edition of The Better Joy Cookbook out. They're messing with cooking canon, those greedy hacks! For five years now, my friends have been coming over for my eggplant Parmesan, and I'm not going to serve some new, reimagined version.

 

[Admiral Buzzkill]

I enjoyed the general complaints about the authors and publishers showing their greed by publishing updated cookbooks.

I had a problem with the macaroni and cheese guy. Making M&C with just cheddar is SO OLD!! You gotta get out of the stone age and use Colby too!

Making M&C with just cheddar is so outdated and cheesey.... I guess it was just a consequence of low budgets not being able to buy more than one type of cheese.

My brother was a dnd fiend. I never could get into it, it was like I was pretending to play some lame board game.

"To Serve Man" was a damn fine book.

Except for the chapter on clowns.

I bought two Emeril action figures. One to keep in it's original packaging so I can sell it on eBay 10 years from now and the other to "Bam!" with.

I've certainly seen this guy around here more than once:

Posted: 1:52 a.m. by IAmEd As I have pointed out MANY TIMES, several of these recipes contain raisins, and I, like most people, am ALLERGIC to raisins! And before you tell me to substitute dried cranberries, I will reiterate that I am discussing the recipes AS WRITTEN. I do not appreciate your ATTACKING ME with helpful suggestions!

Yeah, but no names, please.

Hehehe.

Sadly, I've seen fandoms that this fits even better with than Star Trek.

"I'm going to make my friends eat infinite oregano and they'll have to do it because the recipe says so! "

 

[poundpuppy29]

LOL

I am going to put this on gateworld for SG fans it could fit them too.

 

[Luke Lightsaber]

WHAT!! THIS RECIPIE HAS TOO MUCH CG IN IT!! IT'S NOT REAL!!! I CANT MAKE A RECIPIE WITH CG!! AAHHHHHH!!!!

 

[TrekNut87]

LMAO!!!! Hilarious! Made my day.

Well, I can see some similarities to the debates which can be found on many Trek forums or other forums about some special interest.

But I must also state that I do have a theory about the constant ridiculing and "geekifying" of Trek fans, RPG fans and other people with a certain interest. Maybe those who are "geekifying" and ridiculing those fans are envious because those fans have an interest and they have not?

Uh...no.
