I have a friend that when we were teenagers he would ak me if I had heard "this" band. If I said yes they were ok at best or just plain horrible. If I said No then they were the GOAT.
When I was 12 a friend of mine gave me Led Zeppelin I-IV on tapes she dubbed from her dad's records. Naturally, they blew my impressionable pre-teen mind, and I became the biggest Led Zeppelin fan of all time. In other words, an insufferable douche. I felt the need to constantly talk about Zeppelin, lecture people how great they were, and of course, heap disdain on any peers who had not heard of them or had but did not consider them to be the GOAT band. I felt and incredible urge to lord my Zeppelin fandom over others, including other Zeppelin fans. See, some of them claimed to be fans, and yet they did not listen to Zeppelin every single day like I did. That's because they weren't really fans whereas I was. Totally.
