It's the same with many shows and movies, no? The Rebels in Star Wars, the freed humans in the Matrix (Agent Smith calls humans a virus, feeding on resources until there's nothing left, then moving on), etc. etc. - funny how that works...
The crew of Serenity never played at anything but the bad guys. They were thieves, pirates, scavengers and mercenaries. Cracked made a video as though it's some huge revelation that the crew was anything but the bad guys.
I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
