#in any case physically intimidating you over a comic book character is UNACCEPTABLE holy shit and trying to fuck with your job? yikes

I was in the military and had an (entirely silly and in no way serious) argument with a shipmate about Hal Jordan while waiting around for some range training. I fucking hate the guy, think he's a loser and that Guy Gardner, Jon Stewart, and Kyle Rayner ALL rank well above him- the head fuck-o at the training place took me out of the room and tried to intimidate me.... over a comic book character.... He also docked points off my pistol score. Some stans are just like that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Jesus Christ anon that is MUCH worse than arguing over a locket lmao I'm so sorry for your experience.

#esp as someone who kinda likes Hal Jordan. #in any case physically intimidating you over a comic book character is UNACCEPTABLE holy shit and trying to fuck with your job? yikes #I think that sometimes people just forget that these people do not exist. that if someone doesn't like the same thing as you...its fine #like I like Hal. but I am totally fine with you confiding in me that you hate him. that's fine. #you could come into my inbox and talk about why you don't like Tony Stark and while I wouldn't publish your message I'd be fine with you #you not having the same opinions as I do about comic book characters isn't going to piss me off. it's not that big of a deal. #take a breath. go outside. block me if you want. lets not go too crazy about *checks notes* literally a picture book #anyway thanks for confiding in my anon!! I appreciate that you are willing to share a story with me about your own experiences #and also allowing me to show by example the proper way to interact with someone who has a negative opinion of a character you like #unfortunately I'm starting to think Reed stans are just as bad as mcu Wanda stans #and the ones that have tried to interact with me really do not help those cases whatsoever #just....you could try....just.....being chill...the block button is right there... #if you don't wanna see what I'm saying. that is literally it's purpose. #anyway! love you anon see you later <3
