However, I wasn't sure that answering this question was a good idea. Kpopalypse blog has always been about teaching k-pop fans to think for themselves rather just go along what what's trendy or accept what some dickhead on the Internet spoonfeeds them, even if that dickhead is me. So rather than just answer these questions simply, I thought - why not give readers the tools to determine by themselves exactly how insane any given k-pop fandom is? Enter the Kpopalypse Fandom Insanity Scale!

16 points
You're such a sad, desperate psychotic fan that you're willing to lie about your fandom's virtues on a stupid Kpopalypse test just to feel better about yourself. Please answer the questions again, this time honestly.
17-20 points
Congratulations, your fandom is probably reasonably normal. If I were the supreme dictator of the planet, I may consider allowing your fandom to exist on some kind of limited basis with strict curfews.
21-25 points
Your fandom is potentially wasting oxygen that others could breathe. Consider leaving this group of crazies before you get sucked as deep down the rabbit-hole as they are.
26-30 points
How do you sleep at night, knowing that your fandom is this insane? Only with a body pillow of your idol, obviously. Seek professional medical attention.
31-35 points
Humanity didn't crawl out of the caves just for you to be part of a contingent of dickheads like this. How must your parents feel? You haven't stabbed them in a ritual sacrifice to oppa, have you?
36-40 points
How are you still even reading this far? Don't you have people to stalk?
41-48 points
There is no hope for you, your fandom or humanity in general. It doesn't matter what any of us say or do because we are all doomed. Might as well vote Trump 2016, fuck it.Now you know exactly how crazy your fandom is! Sweet dreams and stay safe until next post!
