I hate people that feel personally attacked when you express your own opinion about music. Like, this chick was gettin' on me because I said that I love Kanye West. She was all, "I don't like him. He's weird and his ego's too big." So I tried to say the nicest remark I could to this uppity girl: "Yeah, but does that mean his music's bad?" She didn't say anything

People...

Nice wink :D

But see? This is my point: I am completely okay with your opinion! It's yours and you're entitled to it. I can't tell you how many people I've seen get all up-in-arms someone else around them disagreed with their musical tastes. Funny thing is that usually the ones freaking out are the ones with horrible taste

You should see the arguments I have over rap music with my friends. It grows and grows to yelling but its funny because I just antagonize it :lol:

Oh god, I can only imagine. Rap seems to be the most intense genre when it comes to difference of opinion, man. Remember East vs West? People got killed! :D

Don't listen to those ignorant fools JohnBaxterly. Everyone likes different things and that's perfectly fine. I happen to love Kayne West's fine pieces of composition and I'm not ashamed to say it.

I mean, how can someone listen to this song and not love it?

See, this is where most arguments start: You're stating your opinion as a fact (I do realize you're not being serious), so I question its relevance, you'll be insulted, I'll explain that you don't know what you're talking about, and you'll probably throw the insult right back at me.
This is why I try very hard to make it clear that my opinion on these things is subjective. But still, I get into a lot of fights about musical preferences… I guess it's just one of those topics people love fighting about.

Deus Ex HR leaked. I normally don't do this... but I checked it out and it's pretty awesome. Runs like crap on my PC though, but oh well!
