I *have* actually tried to get a local GM via one of those various gaming-specific meetup sites, but... well, suffice it to say that this is the GM who decided that my asking for a mystery game with small, local stakes instead of cosmic horror meant that I didn't appreciate the vastness and mystery of the universe and reject me on those grounds, in such a way as to make a third party say that she sounded like an actual Mythos cultist.

That's the GM version of my "Derek Laserface" player who always wants to run the same basic game. I've never really understood the desire to run cosmic horror games until you've played a lot of low stakes "My teeth are spying on me" games. There's no empathy with your character's privation from shared reality if you haven't established a sense of care about their world. @pteryx @Taskerland
