Well, in light of your post, ignorance is only one side of the issue. You don't come off as a know-it-all prick. You just like things. I have seen some know-it-all pricks, and by god some even have the nasally-irritating voice. I'll paint you a lovely scenario.verdant monkai said:Poke
It's an anime convention, late at night, and a couple of my friends are known for their hijinx and shenaniggans in Anime Fight Club, the humorous discussion panel of who - from various games, comics, anime, etc. - would win in a fight, using all of their resources, no help from outsiders. Most cases, this is gloriously funny, and making the guys almost die laughing usually constitutes a win.
However, the latest one had a guy in there that was this sort of loud-mouth twit. (BTW: He's an Escapist, so I HOPE YOU SEE THIS!) Nasally voice, calling out when other people want to talk, never shutting up, irritating the panelists, making no sense, and he was right behind me too. When I had had enough, I cited arguments against whoever he was rooting for on grounds of his inability to be quiet, and the guys LIKED IT. And then, when I really got mad, I threatened to beat him in front of everyone...which somebody shook my hand for.
There is a kind of geek-out that just is not appropriate even for a roomful of them. Moderation in all things. And speaking of mods, I hope you guys don't take personally that I described an Escapist off-forum in such a manner, but the guy had it coming and you will be happy to know that I don't look at all members in quite that light.
