Oh, please, “geek” or “nerd” ACCORDING TO WHOM?

As if flashing a Rolex or driving a Porsche is any different. That collecting anything is in inverse proportion to “sex acquired” is another stupid myth the mass herd-mind has seen fit to snigger and fart about. The very same dips who ridicule your monster nostalgia are the ones who seem to go berserk decorating their lawns come Xmas, or paint their bodies and become frothing morons at Super Bowl time. Women who own cats are unilaterally disqualified from criticizing anyone’s monster jones. Instead of models or posters they collect tumors, infantile relationships, beer cans, crippling debt and surly offspring. Our culture (if it deserves to be called that) has terminally confused “childish” with “child-LIKE,” allowing feckless gasbags to indiscriminately christen some stuff as cool and some other stuff as not, when it’s ALL consumer-culture fallout. Point being: if it makes you feel good, collect it, display it, enjoy it, and pack it away when it doesn’t make you feel good anymore.

Yes, there are people in the world who simply, desperately need to get laid in order to become reasonably socialized.

Yes, some of those people are old monster movie fans.

BUT THIS IS NOT A SYLLOGISM.

The “Precious Moments” sub-discussion raises another interesting issue: Collections of thimbles, Keane paintings, tourist magnets, shot glasses, Laura Ashley floral patterns, overpriced wine, reeking cigars, and all manner of bad kitsch and tchotchkes are okay in this context, but throw in a monster mask or a movie poster and you suddenly become a leper?

Trend-whores and people who lead generally joyless lives love to snipe at your “childish little obsessions” because they are so dead inside that nothing makes them feel good unless it makes someone else feel bad. If such b.s. ever had anything to do with getting laid, why, I’d still be a virgin.

Hmm. Let me think about that a moment.

Nope. The naysayers are completely full of brown spam, and I’m living proof.
