I joined in the SNES vs. Genesis era....problem?!

I was, I don't remember, 7 or so years old at the time? I do have a memory in which someone came over to my house, friend of my brother, 14 or so years old.

Me: Hey look, I just got an SNES! Final Fantasy 2 is so much fun!

Him: The SNES sucks, the Genesis is more powerful anyways.

Me: What's the Genesis?

Him: Sega's console.

Me: Who's Sega?

Him: You're dumb

And he walked off. That really hurt my feelings. The second I started gaming, I met my first fanboy. Of course, I went on to buy the Genesis, and even a bunch of other Sega consoles, even the freakin' Nomad. But that's my first experience with an irrational fanboy. I was very confused...
