When I was a kid, I had "He-Man" action figures. My neighbor had "Blackstar" or whatever his name was. He-Man had his own cartoon, girlfriend, powerful sword, etc. So did Blackstar. I had He-Man and I thought He-Man was better so I was convinced I was the one having the most fun. He had Blackstar and he thought he was having more fun than I was. It was my mission to convince him that he was wrong to have fun with his toys. He should be jealous of me and my toys or buy the same toys I had. Anything less was just not right.
And it grew from there.
In my town, there are people that preferred Ford trucks to Chevy trucks. To me, it was dumb as hell. They were both just trucks. Ran on gas, had four tires, took you from here to there. Yet these assholes had a truck feud. We are no different. People are passionate about their choices for absolutely no reason.
