Yeah, but I would've liked for it to have been reasons like the plot was hokie or filled with holes or that I had seen it to its end and therefore deemed it irredeemable. Death by hype is embarrassing and not at all uncommon with me. It's why I no longer read Harry Potter, why I didn't watch Firefly while it aired, why I tune out on Bleach when the word is mentioned. It's not a Fandom thing either, when its own popularity strangles all interest I could have held onto. I'm just not interested in the competitive and small-minded nature it brings out in the common man. I'd rather watch porn anyway.
I guess, that's what celebrity is anyway. A big ol' magnifying glass to make society at its worse look glamorous and unattainable.
I can't stomach it.
I feel ill just thinking about it and I want to strangle my roommates.
