Or do you just feel superior because you did things when they weren't cool? Following the trend is cooler and makes you a hole lot better socially. Talking about dub while it is cool is when it's best to talk about it obviously, the rest of the time noone knows what you're on about and you have to explain it to them. Because when something becomes "cool" it often just ruins it. Like the WoW community, or certain other games where they start to cater to the casuals and sort of sell out, it also happened with CoD. Then there are games like Halo where the community is just so bad and you get called a faggot all the time because every 13 year old has it. Basically when something becomes popular it often just moves away from what it was and towards mainstream middle ground. If that makes any sense  | ||

I didn't play a tank then either, it was just something decent people knew because you didn't want a windowlicker tank in your PUG. | ||

oh wait... It's not cool. :C Ummm, besides that, I may have been about a week ahead of the curve for Friday, but I didn't really like that, so thats out too. Baseball I've played since I was a kid, but that was cool 150 fucking years ago. I guess I can't say I liked anything before it was cool :D | ||

I'm like bitch please, I read the manga 5 months ago and predicted that it was good enough to become an anime based on my "stock-exchange-esque" forecasting of the climate of the Anime community and their demands in regards to supply..... psh these noobie anime fans. It takes intelligence to make good predictions and analysis, and when they come true it means that you're a legit anime freak. Here, BOKU WA TOMODACHI GA SUKUNAI will become an anime. I hate how what I've said is true because it makes me feel like a hipster when I'm just a crazy fanatic =_=.... which are both bad... not to mention its obnoxious fml | ||

I just had a major hipster period when that Rebecca Black video came out with the song Friday. I watched it when it had like 200,000 views or something like that and then when everyone asked me about that song I couldn't stop the urge to scream I SAW IT FIRST. Guess I am a Youtube hipster... Not proud of it | ||

I said "sadface" before it was cool. | ||

I was into electronic music (the breakbeat parents of dubstep, in fact) before dubstep existed. So what? Somebody was into it before I was too. And someone before them. Timeline doesn't really mean shit. I think that your real complaint is that some people are bandwagoners. And I feel your outrage. Bandwagoning is the single most destructive cultural phenomena with regards to spoiling wonderful things that I love. I'm sure far more articulate people could write whole essays describing why bandwagoning is so destructive, but for whatever reason, they take something good, dumb it down, remove it's uniqueness, import their trashiness, and then leave it to die when they find the next craze. You have no idea how angry I am that all of the drum and bass production crews around here started throwing dubstep shows instead of dnb so they can cash in on the fucked up 18 year old shithead demographic. And the bandwagoning phenomena has literally destroyed every mmo since wow. Gajillion Wow players join, bitch about the game sucking, go back to wow, game collapses. | ||
