Simple enough question, I think.
However, someone who was clearly a Nintendo Fanboy came along and called me a Cricket Fanboy. I argued that his statement was a complete nonsense because cricket was a sport and not a game, book, TV series, or film. He countered that fanboyism could be applied to anything you have obsessive interest or knowledge in. I then suggested that would make there a lot of fanboys in the world. Fans of Football (either soccer or the American variety), Rugby, cricket, baseball, playing or spectating, all could then by his reasoning, be legitimately be deemed fanboys.
I then asked him if he would dare go in a pub or bar and say that.
He told me not to be so stupid.
