In case you can't read that shoddy screen shot from a tumblr page:
Isn't it funny how must people don't know All The Things?
"They say things like, 'Oh is Sherlock doing another season?' and 'I heard it was coming back...sometime...' They ask things like 'Who's that guy in The Hobbit, he looks familiar...' and 'What kind of a name is Cumberbatch, anyway?'
They wonder about fannish movie trailers, when whatever trailer they're wondering about has been out for two weeks and has already been broken down frame by frame, turned into gif sets and generated four different memes.
They muse about possible storylines, when the episode synopses have been released for months and been endlessly analyzed, pontificated upon and worried over.
They don't know the names of the people playing the roles, when we have already viewed every single film in all of their backlists, know their birthday, where they're from and where they went to school and, of course, who they're dating.
They don't know the dates episodes will air, when we know literally the second how long it will be until airtime.
Who are these people and why don't they know what we know?
Because we? We are fandom. AND THEY ARE NOT."
