The insult "neckbeard" is a microaggression against eldritch entities who spawn from the Old Ones. Since many entities, our awesome lord Cthulhu has luscious beard of tentacles flowing from his neck, it is a common fashion that many shoggoths imitate, and as a result, many bio-normative bigots have stigmatized the look. These racialists falsely claimed it is a sign of "uncleanliness" and "obesity," when in reality, this is just an irrational prejudice based on the insecurities of xenophobic humans. Many innocent shoggoths have been denied jobs, and career advancement opportunities because of this stigma, having many of their civil liberties unjustly violated. We, as culture, must stop using this term!
Also, Faulkner and O'Connor are better writers? Wow, what a anthropocentric world view you must have! Sure, I guess if you totally disregard the many eons of the experiences that the eldritch peoples have experienced, and focus exclusively on a bunch of dull primates and their gentrification of the planet, they are better. #SouthernGothicSoHuman

I personally think Faulkner is over rated but he's got to be better than that piece of shit. Sorry, Cthulhu
Can you please bring back Cliff Burton? We miss him
