As
@BlueSharkTV implies, Nolan literally seems to tie some of his self-worth to how "Popular" or "Good" the things he likes is. Take this Twitter post from two days ago as an example.
>Nolan is PROUD to call Avatar the Last Airbender his favorite show
Nevermind the fact this nigga is nearly 2 decades behind the times with ATLA, why in the fuck would he get a sense of PRIDE from liking a show. He had literally nothing to do with its creation. He just sat on a fucking couch widemouthed like a fucking Soyjak CONSOOOOOMING the (admittedly amazing) product.
You can literally extrapolate this out to explain many of Nolan's behavior. It's fucking cringe as hell, and I hate using that term.
Also, I would be lying if I didn't say with it being the year since I blasted his penis off that I wasn't tempted to cowtip slightly his Twitter account. Forgive me if I do it gents.
