That's fandom and RL for you both. (Ugh, Fred Phelps.) I know I'm guilty of highlighting batshittery myself. It's just... More newsworthy than 'hey, sane people exist too'? And I guess mocking it is my way of not wanting to stick sharp, pointy objects into my head over it.
Yes. Damn, that's the best description of it I've heard. I can never explain it properly to other people. I'm going to have to steal that one, hah.
