You got that right.

I found a forum dedicated to occult study, and most of the postings were obviously written by people living in their mom's basement. There was a high level of melodrama, and a pack/clique mentality. I also noticed a definite high-schoolesque pecking order, and some of the threads gave it away.

"does anybody have a spell for acne??"
"I think my BF is cheating. I need a potion"
etc.
