I’m a fan of Saga, The Walking Dead, The Hunger Games, The Lunar Chronicles, Outlander, Timeless, Game of Thrones (sometimes), Twilight (occasionally), Steven Universe, Gravity Falls, Avatar: The Last Airbender/Legend Of Korra, and a bunch of other stuff. Carrie White and Bree Tanner deserved better.

Me watching AMC’s TWD fall to pieces knowing the comics have Maggie and happiness, Rick alive, Carl being a leader and not dead, Sophia, Michonne’s child, Buttons the Horse out there somewhere, 4K Jesus, Negan and an interesting character arc, Magna/Yumiko, a Eugene that doesn’t piss me off, and also Dirtyl not being in sight:

How could you forget Princess???

Because I’m a fool

Look at her

Cool cutie

Why did they take this part out Wtf is up with show!Maggie

Show!Maggie is (at this point) a straight up bitch

Yeah like I can understand her pain but maybe if the show writers hadn't screwed up so many key points of All Out War, the plot could have played out so much better and the characterization wouldn't be so out of whack

You hear all these “you’re not a real fan unless” and it lists a hundred things, but I met a dude today who saw my Deadpool pin and asked what my favorite story arc was, and I explained that while I loved Deadpool, I was new to Marvel (I only really got into it a year and a half ago) and hadn’t been able to find a lot of the comics. Instead of making a face or a derogatory comment, he just offered to send me all the stuff he had. That is a true fan.

I told the guy at the comic shop when I went in for Black Widow that I’d seen a few Harley Quinn panels on Tumblr and thought it looked badass but didn’t know where to start because my entire involvement in DC fandom was watching the Batman cartoon as a kid. This guy sitting at one of the tables playing Yu-Gi-Oh, wearing a comic shirt and carrying a definitely-hardcore-fan amount of swag, spins around and goes “dude! You’ve never read DC? Check out the back issues wall. They’ve got all kinds of Harley Quinn.” He then proceeded to explain how “New 52″ was a spinoff, and had some split opinions in the fandom, but either continuity is good as long as you pick one and stay with it so you don’t get mixed on what’s going on. 

True fans love to see other people loving the stuff they love.

See how easy it is to be “that cool person who helped me get into X” instead of “that asshole who made me feel bad for not knowing everything about X”?

IT’S NOT EVEN DIFFICULT TO NOT BE A SHITLORD. YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE. And you never had one.

A while back, I was at a comic book store looking for the next Walking Dead volume and this boy and his brother were there and he was like "what are you looking for?" And I told him I was really into The Walking Dead, and I was worried he might make fun of me but he was just like "cool me too!" And we discussed the season finale that was premiering that night and what number issue we were up to and see this is how we should treat each other, not acting superior for being a "bigger fan" or whatever but welcoming each other in the community because that's much better
