They don’t think they’re smarter than fans of other sitcoms.
They know they are.
Lovers of “Community” — back tonight (8 p.m., KSNV-TV, Channel 3) after a three-month hiatus — can be insufferable, tweeting #sixseasonsandamovie while yammering about paintball, blanket forts and a monkey named Annie’s Boobs.

For everyone else — that roughly 1 percent of you — there’s “Community.”
