Kids like this whom I've known tended to spend a lot of time in their rooms, smoking pot and reading too much into prog-rock lyrics. When the decades-spanning career of Rush draws to a close, I suspect the ranks of Randfandom will similarly diminish.

Trash Rand all you want ... but trash Rush, now you've gone way too far!

Sic transit gloria mundi.

In my limited experience, using Latin phrases in a post tends to appeal to a certain type of suburban blowhard -- the kind of person who honestly believes he dated cheerleaders and was really cool.

Guilty as charged. I am in fact a suburban blowhard.

While I wasn't cool, I was fairly popular -- for whatever that's worth. (And I really did date cheerleaders.) To deny these objective facts is to deny reality. A thing is what it is.
