Genres and genetic mistakes (male ones)

Okay. The next time someone tells me I suck because I don't listen to the same music they do, I shall take a CD and shove it up their nose. I don't care if it won't fit. I will make it fit, even if I have to take a chainsaw to their nasal cavity.
Because honestly, I don't know what genre I listen to the most. I listen to whatever I like, and just because I don't like the same genre of music as one of my friends doesn't mean I need to convert them to whatever I'm currently in love with. I cannot instantly recognize David Bowie when I hear him, and I DON'T CARE. And all you David Bowie fans out there who are seething can just deal, because that isn't changing any time soon.
It's not that I don't like songs from genres I don't usually listen to--for example, a friend of mine introduced me to anti-folk music. While I don't think I'll be going to any concerts anytime soon, Kimya Dawson kicks ass, and you should listen to her at least once because it's sadly addicting.

But you'll notice that I will not call you a loser if you don't.

Of course, I have no way of knowing if you do, but this is getting off topic. Big surprise. So in another of my random topic jumps, I've realized that I don't care about a lot of things. I heard yesterday that there's a clique of guys who hate my guts, because apparently I act like I think I'm "better" than they are. And really, if they're desperate enough for bitchy gossip that they're bashing someone who has made almost NO contact with them, I am better than them. Sucks for them.
Still, I can't help but find it ridiculous. When I mock these boys, it is only to my close friends, and it's only because I have seen evidence of their stupidity in classes. They may have redeeming qualities...But I sure haven't seen any.
But dear readers, the next time you bash someone, try and do it intelligently (somehow, I don't think it's really possible for the boys in my story, seeing as they're the kind of kids who still laugh whenever someone says the word 'poop').

I think the hatred of you has less to do with your lofty attitude (even though you do act like you are above everyone, and, frankly, you are above most), but it is more of "hatred by association." Congrats! I don't think its a particularly great loss.

As for the rest of your post, I really am yearning for a coherent rant of some sort. I know that's an oxymoron, but you have so much wonderful anger to spout at each of these things I feel that by jumping from hatred to hatred you leave out wonderful bits of hate. Gah!

Mmm, agreed about the music thing. You like what you like, and to the rest you remain uneducated - not a crime. & the clique of guys (wow) who hate you for being above them (what!?) can and will burn in hell, and you will laugh. Done dealio.

Yah, I totally agree about the music thing- but for me that goes for tv shows and movies too. I know that 90% of mis amigos think that I'm a moron for watching the stuff that I watch but I LOVE IT and not because it's stupid and preppy and I find it hilarious, but I actually think that it's well written and I'm sticking to that. It's good stuff. So hah. You gave me a bout of strength. TO CHIPMUNKS EVERYWHERE! MAZEL TOV AND LECHEIEM.

(Happy 1st night of Channukah BTW)
