I am one of the handful of people in the world who cannot stand Rush. (I also do not care for Pink Floyd, but that is another matter altogether.) I don’t know what it is about Rush, but every older gamer… no, every older geek seems to love them. If you have ever played at an older gamer’s house, you know exactly what I’m talking about.

Hey, it's a new month, and that means a new vote incentive! You know the drill: if KT is in the top 100 of Top Web Comics or the #1 spot at Photo Web Comics, there will be a bonus comic on Monday, June 29.

Funny, I've only played at a couple older gamers' places, and they were both all about Flogging Molly. ...maybe it's the "geek" part that adds in the Rush element?

I think it's a combination of geek and age. If the gamer is in their 50's, they always seem to be Rush fans.

Is the cat a cat-phone, or is it a cat X3

I have to say, I'm an early-twenties geek and I love Rush, along with several younger-geek friends, so maybe it's not just an age phenomenon. :) On the other hand, I don't like listening to Pink Floyd. I always skip those songs on Pandora. Music taste is just strange and random sometimes.

I have geek gamer friends in their twenties who adore Rush. I'm more of a book geek, though, so I don't get the ZOMGRUSH! thing. ;)

I liked Rush up tp 2112 then not so much.I think they like to relive the heady days of their youth.

I'll listen to Rush if one of their songs is playing on the radio..I'll change the station if Pink Floyd comes on.

Has the kitty been hardwired into the phone system?

I never heard Rush, but I have heard Pink Floyd.

Also, the cat is a Littlest Pet Shop one, right? It looks almost identical to my cat (irl, yes).

I don't exactly hate Rush, but I don't like them either. I'm sort of ambivalent towards them. I kind of feel like I'd like them if I listened to them a bit more.

As for not liking Floyd... weirdo! However, I'll act like I didn't read that if you happen to like Led Zeppelin.

Seriously, though, I know people who hate every band/genre of music I like, so I've stopped being annoyed by it. (But when I was 15-16, I was the kind who'd get into arguments over what music was good.)

I do like Zep, although not as much as I did when I was a teenager. Over the years, Robert Plant has started to wear on me. (Ditto with David Lee Roth. Didn't mind him at all as a kid!)

But Floyd, man... Pink Floyd has exactly two good songs. Dude.

(I also argued a lot about music. Still trying to break the habit!)
