A cult which believes negative attention is better than none. Going by blogs on this and the comments, it looks to become a source of amusement for people waiting in line.

Definition time with Suiseiten:

We shall examine Westboro Church this time. This phrase means "Drones that hate almost anything entertaining, new, fresh, or that questions their beliefs." This should not be confused for Fred Phelps. Though he is the present root to this phrase, he is moreso correlated to social intolerance and blasphemy in comparison to his drones.

Examples in sentence form:
Richard seems to complain a lot about homosexuality, psychiatry, pop culture conventions, and tends to quote everything from Levictus. Does he go to Westboro Church?

No, he's about 600 miles away from there, but with his charisma, I could see him becoming the next Fred Phelps.

Joel Watson, creator of the online strip Hijinks Ensue, is soliciting on Twitter for counterprotest signs for Comic-Con. Some of my favorites:

SUPERMAN DIED FOR YOUR SINS!

Repent, George Lucas! Repent!

NO BLOOD FOR ENERGON!

"For Jor-El so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son..."

THERE! ARE! FOUR! LIGHTS!

They should organize a zombie walk to eat their brains.
