Haley and the Cult Members
A cult following is a group of fans who are highly dedicated to a specific area of culture. A film, book, musical artist, television series, or video game, among other things, will be said to have a cult following when it has a small but very passionate fan base. A common component of cult followings is the emotional attachment fans have with the object of the cult following, often identifying themselves and other fans as members of a community. Cult followings are also commonly associated with niche markets. Cult media are often associated with underground culture, and are considered too eccentric, bizarre, controversial or anti-establishment to be appreciated by the general public.

So, guys, has Haley achieved/achieving cult status? I'm just wondering if it's a good thing or not.

Dude WTF You have, to answer that your self. Is Haley all that Wikipedia says about cults?  in my younger years middle 20s I was in a cult, and you knew you were in it. Almost impossible to leave. You can say whatever you want about being a fan maybe overzealous a little,IMO this is not a cult.

The cult thing Mr. Midnight Tears.
Twin Peaks, Community, Rob Zombie, David Lynch and Jeff Buckley are cult favorites.

RE: Haley and the Cult Members
I can say I accidentally referred to Haley as "my friend Haley who put out this awesome CD" once....  Yeah, I don't know if she'd consider herself a friend....yet.
