Okay this isn't a roleplay discussion, but this is something I'm very happy about. No one in my friend group/ people I know like or knows what Jekyll and Hyde is. But when I was in Art Club today, a friend of a friend of mine knew what Jekyll and Hyde was! I was so happy! I found fellow Jekyll and Hyde fan! I also recommended to her Glass Scientists and Search for Henry Jekyll. But I'm finally not the only one! Cause before the only fans I knew of where here on the internet. So I am really happy I finally found someone else to talk to about Jekyll and Hyde!!!

(Well we only talked about the musical, since we got on to the topic of songs, I assume she discovered it through the musical soundtrack than did research or bought the book)

(That's cool! I was just wondering, since whenever I meet anyone new, I tend to quiz them on all topics related to Jekyll and Hyde. ^-^')

(Huh, I think I've been guilty of that myself. I like to try and educate people in the lore of J&H if they're interested. If not, I try and keep it brief.)

(Not in my area, and I've learned not to really hope for much in the past. So that way when they aren't met they don't come crashing down and cause you pain. Well than... I got depressing in about two swings of Hyde's umbrella. I just imagined Hyde whistling swinging a bloody umbrella while walking.)

I can imagine him doing it. Perhaps with luck, we'll see that soon! :D)

...how on earth do you manage to hang out with people who don't know what Jekyll and Hyde is. Isn't that. You know. Common knowledge. That's like saying that they don't know what Moby Dick is. Don't they teach you this stuff at school??

I don't know about the schools you've been to but my school system hasn't had us read Jekyll and Hyde. I'm afraid most only know the very basics of Jekyll being Hyde (at least with people I've talked to).

Okay, so we didn't read the book in class either, but we did have several lessons going over the gist of the major literary classics.

Oh wow, lucky. I haven't had any lessons like that, unless you count Shakespeare and To Kill A Mockingbird.

Well, a few more than that, I simply have a terrible memory and can't remember them all... We used to get to pick a book out from a list of books.

I wish I had that, that would be awesome instead of reading the same books that every other school reads.

It was a rather cleverly condensed process. Out teacher gave us a list of world classics, everyone got to pick a book (each one only once, of course), and then everyone would read their own book and make a presentation. So instead of everyone having to read 20 books, everyone read one, and heard enough about the others to know what happened, what it was about, and why it was important enough to consider a classic.
And we had a few lessons going over literary history where no-one read the actual books but they were covered in our text book.

I think most people know the basics. Like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde were the same person as it's part of pop-culture but I don't think a lot of people read it as it isn't mandatory for school curriculum [at least not here]. On the flip side there's a difference between fandom and general knowledge so there's that to take into account to.
Normally I just get by with summering everything and getting people hooked onto TRPS through my retelling or just throw TGS at them and hiding the link to the website in the library's copy of The Strange Case. XD

Covert advertising through library books! Very clever XD 
I really hope you rope someone into the comments one day.
I think I'll try that too.

Funny you should say that! But at the moment I'm trying to do just that! XD
I honestly don't know if it worked but I do know that I slipped a sticky note with the website in the book! ;P

Some of them do but don't care about it. Not anymore, not to many people know what Jekyll and Hyde are anymore. They don't mention or teach it in school, they just mention it in the few movies that have it. I came across it through otherwise, than I hopped deep in to the Jekyll and Hyde trash can.
