Totally love TTS. I am very excited that they started their 3rd season.
I just can't wait for the next installment of a Tale of Two Brothers. Vulkan has quickly become my favorite Primarch in the show.

I am quite invested in Kitten, and that is a sign of a great writer. The whole story is very interesting and I want to see some Abby in it.
It's all rather silly and some just can't understand why that's funny. IMO, those people can't laugh at themselves.

Sternguard though, those guys are all about kicking ass. They'd chew bubble gum as well, but bubble gum is heretical. Only tau chew gum. |

TTS isn't for me, but I don't have a problem with it. The 40k fandom is utterly obnoxious for regurgitating memes and chortling out the same "HERESY BLAM" "LE NO ARM FAILBADDON XD" tripe though, particularly when any other fandom would've overused an in-joke for maybe a couple of months and then dropped it whilst in 40k they persist for years if not decades. It does lead to a lot of times when people take those memes and gospel and given how often I see TTS unironically linked to people as a 'good' source of 40k lore to newcomers genuinely surprises me. Now before the smug righteous brigade jump down my throat and snort one another's echo, I'd say there's definitely a difference between "let other people enjoy things" and how beyond obnoxious 40k gets for nerds unfunnily inserting regurgitated catchphrase memes into every other discussion. Ever been on a Discord for 40k? Yeah, then you'll know what I'm on about and that feeds into said lore perceptions where more than a few people think 'armless Failbaddon' was an actual thing.

Not liking tired memes? HERESY! *BLAM*

See that stuff above? Completely true. All of it, every single word. Stands to reason. |

You don't even need to go to Discord, they've utterly taken over the GW Facebook pages. For example, GW can't post a single Dark Angels mention without the whole thing becoming "HurrDurr nice Chaos models" vomit or the past month where they literally couldn't post anything without a ton of "But Saga of the Beast?" garbage.

I thought the video was amusingly insightful.
