I grew up in the dawn of the video game avatar era, and I still can NOT for the life of me understand the childlike attachment to everything about these 0-dimensional sales tools that they just fucking fill in the blanks about and then defend their dreams about someone else's creation and waste so much time, brainpower, electrical energy and rendering power on such meaningless bullshit instead of making their situations or GodBear forbid the world a better place.
There's a difference between having a hobby and turning it into a life centerpiece. Even someone who absolutely, positively, cares everything about their hobby will not become a lolcow as long as they remember the basics - to not let it utterly dominate their entire life. When that simple line is abandoned, one is inviting the Lolcow in.
