This is me (and a lot of other folks, I imagine) in just about every belief system, political affiliation, and social movement I've ever found myself allied with.

And that's why I'm a different brand of Catholic. Well put, Kevin!

After spending innumerable hours on Reddit, I find myself greatly disappointed that I can't upvote comments on DeviantArt.

And then I remembered Llamas.

Aaaaaaagh I'm scared of reddit. And 4chan. And most of those sites Β 

I've heard horror stories from my peers and from around the internet. As it is I've barely grazed the surface of tumblr- I'm scared that I'll find something really dark. As it is my dash is constantly filled with guro...

NomadicShade In reply to RoseSerpenthelm [2013-09-26 02:43:24 +0000 UTC]

The way I see it, 4chan is a bunch of assholes and a good lot of decent folk. Tumblr... everyone's either high or jacked up on caffeine, mostly art and fandoms. Reddit is your welcoming, anti-troll community, with a hand in pretty much everything.

And I tend to stay away from the guro myself xD

I should check out reddit some day... Maybe. Once I get over my cyber-paranoia

Wait, wait... This implies then that you and the people like you devote time and effort into figuring out what you think and believe for /yourself,/ rather than conform yourself to fit under the confines of a pre-approved societal label. I dunno, man... That seems like a lot of work, and more than a little scary. And how will people like governments and organizations be able to conveniently classify you into social groups, income brackets, and target audiences? Most people /like/ to be catered and pandered to, you know. Deviants like you upset the established, comfortable order for the rest of us. By the way, this offends me, so you should all stop talking about it so that I don't need to devote any energy in coming up with a reasonable counter-argument.

Seriously though, an excellent comic. It also rather cheers me up how many people relate to this. Come, we must unite as the free-thinkers of society! Those who will not be herded into boxes! Anyone who agrees with me gets a t-shirt and a cookie!

When it comes to faith, take it with a grain of salt. Because no matter who/what you worship/study, there is someone who thinks you're wrong for doing so.
