I actually had a very similar experience with reading Homestuck for the first time, though I was still a pretty "new" adult (19) when I did. Still, I think your analysis is on point.
being a homestuck fan is like being crucified for being right about everything. almost like some guy i know
this shit is a gross and messy solution to me just trying to make a distinction between my own stuff n other stuff but be niceys to me for now
wow i looked it up i dident even know the earhtbound romhack guy made a videogame
Hes Nasty
