;_; Not al clubs are like that. I run the club at 
our school, which I started for the specific 
purpose of sharing anime, this hobby I love, with 
other members of the school. I especially love 
showing non-commercialized anime, as it just 
brings more variety into the club, showing things 
that don't come right off the shelf. I admit, I 
do scoff at TV dubbed anime, but not because I 
think I'm better as much as I just -hate- the way 
things are torn apart. If it wan't for kids in 
the first place, I don't think they should -make- 
it a kids show. 

But anyway, my point is, I don't look down on any 
members of my club, as they are all there for a 
certain reason...to enjoy anime. Most of them 
aren't hardcore, and some of them are, and we all 
co-exist peacefully...mainly because if someone 
gets too rowdy I smack them and say "I CAN'T 
HEAR!" That usually shuts 'em up ^^

I dunno, I kinda feel, if someone wants to be 
immersed in a world like that....who am I to take 
that from them? It gives them a sense of 
community and belonging, and even if the rest of 
us may think it creepy, none of us have the right 
to take that away from them. 

Eeeep. I started this out as a simple little 
shout-out for clubs, and stood on a total 
soapbox. Gomen! But you get my point ^^
