    Stop ruining the word "Fan"

    Stop ruining the word "Fan"

    I had a lot of trouble titling this episode. Here's the thing, just cuz you like something doesn't make you a fan of it, and I'm not trying to gatekeep here, but you degrade a fandom when you dilute the meaning of the word fan. Real fans of Parks and rec are not just now realizing that tick tocks use of "Don't be suspicious" comes from that show. Other people might just now be realizing it, but fans of that show recognized it when they heard it! If you say "potatoes" around a Tolkien fan, They will immediately think of samwise gamgee, regardless of the context in which you are speaking about said potatoes! Why? Because they're a fan. Just like Parks and Rec fans know "don't be suspicious".

    8 - Storming the Capitol

    8 - Storming the Capitol

    WARNING: I AM SORRY FOR THE YELLING!
    Yesterday, something egregious happened. And I'm very confused about it specific part of it: Why the heck weren't the police more violent?
    I don't want violence to be their default, but when they get attacked ,they have every right to fight back. And I think that if they have done that differently than they did, then yesterday would have been much less of a problem.

    7 - Walmart Credit Card from Capital One

    I'm upset with Capital One right now about a poor customer service experience with them regarding my Walmart credit card.
    The experience isn't just the phone call, but the thing that led to the phone call too puts a bad taste in my mouth.
