The Shower Thought of November 29, 2014

(not sure how to start this but) This was on the topic of "weebs". idk it kinda irked me being called "filthy weeb trash". I used to just brush it off because, whatever, I've been called a weeb before and for reasons I can understand. I watch anime, I talk about it at times, and I've been practicing drawing it for years now. But this is the first time I've been called filthy weeb trash. I almost considered changing my lifestyle.

But this where it my thought comes in. I know it was just a small comment made online but I've been thinking about it ever since. Now I understand why people try not associate with the anime genre. They don't want to seem belittled by the people who believe that they're too good for it. And I can't blame them. After watching what everyone else has gone through they'd rather not have to go through the same thing and decid to stay away from it. (and this can go for many other things, too) 

But I've been into anime for as long as I can remember. I started watching Yu-Gi-Oh and all the other animes aired on Saturday and Sunday cartoons. Then I went into Pokemon. But theres different types of anime. After watching Spirited Away I got hooked on movies produced by Studio Ghibli. They make amazing movies that really stick with you and make you want to be a child again. 

I won't try to change anyone's mind or convince anyone of anything. Its just a thought. I'm open to discuss this with anyone who has the time.

P.S.
Requesting an apology from the person who did call me filthy weeb thrash.
