      because being excited about a new hobby isnt cool. actually starting a new hobby is an insult to all the people who’d been real fans of the hobby before you. this is the internet.

        If anyone likes what I like then it’s my duty to ruin it for them by making a hostile environment where it’s no longer fun.

        I don’t have hobbies because I want to enjoy them, only to feel superior to others.

      Because „being asshole because of phone“ is soooooo 2010 and gatekeeping normally doesn’t feel good enough anymore.
