Dragkonias: makes sense to me. That's exactly what I hate about fandoms; I can't tell you how many creative works I've discovered (webcomics, games, etc) only to see the demands/anger from the fan base against the creator and realize that a 'deeper connection' to the work was not in the cards for me. I don't understand why people spend time spewing anger at someone they claim to admire.
Notch's post where he basically says, "I was just doing things that were fun to me, fuck all you people who tried to turn me into a political movement" is amazing.
The fact that someone upthread compares Notch selling the game to selling his soul to the devil, i.e. the most fundamentally horrible thing you can do and clearly something the poster takes personally, makes this just amazing.
What is this I don't even.

Comics like this make me wonder about the living arrangements of these characters. I mean, both Tycho and Gabe have wives and kids in the comics (just like real life), so I would assume they live in separate homes. Most of the time, the comics support that assumption. But a comic like this just makes me think how weird it would be if I was over at my best friend's house while he's lying in bed and trying to sleep.
(I'm not pondering this in any serious way....just thought I'd comment on it.)
"It's just as I've always said. We are being digested by an amoral universe."
I'm with Tycho on this one, though in my case 'the ritual' is simply where I buy a huge plot of land, build a neighborhood on it, invite all my friends to live within walking distance, and put a big building in the middle of the circle of homes in which we may all be entertained together, in any imaginable way.

My... my god...
I thought these moments were lost in time, like tears in the rain...
your = belonging to you
their = belonging to them
there = not here
they're = they are
