Gaiman and Whedon Discuss the Rise of the Geek

CABridges writes "In a lengthy Time Magazine interview, Neil Gaiman ("Sandman," "American Gods") and Joss Whedon ("Buffy the Vampire Slayer," "Firefly") talk about their audience. Gaiman: "Mostly they're people. They're us. That's what they look like." Whedon: "They're a lot more attractive than I am, actually, which kind of disturbs and upsets me." Both men, known for their cult-favorite creations, have movies debuting this Friday. For Gaiman it's MirrorMask, for Whedon it's Serenity."

    You're hanging out w/ the wrong people. Do you choose your friends on the basis of whether they like your wallet bulge? I dont know about you but i'd like my friends to hang out w/ me because of who I am not, not because of the number of rounds I buy. Correspondingly, if your SO likes your $$ more than you, howtf do you think thats going to turn out?
