total reversal.  i won't discuss certain movies with certain people because i know they're not interested.  that's fine. 

i know a few people who will blatantly tell me they hate/like something and then when someone else asks them, they'll just agree with whatever they say regardless if it differs from what they told me.  ugh

sounds like my brother, aka "east coast rap just isn't good, in fact there are no good east coast producers. illmatic is ok. rakim can rap but he can't really really rap"

first his musical taste was dictated by what was popular, now he tries to prove how cool he is by listening to "underground" hip hop, ie dilated peoples and evidence  :lol

I was once asked by someone "do they play them on the radio?"  I said "not really" and they said "they can't be that good then"

smmfh

This is true, except for womenfolk.  They shouldn't be allowed to make decisions on things, because when they do dumb shit becomes popular like, you know, chick flicks.  Chick flicks.

i watch a lot of chick flicks.  But ya know, at least if someone asks I can admit I like it and defend my choices instead of following popular opinion.  Fuck, I hate people

music posers piss me off. i'm into underground backpacker stuff but it doesn't dictate my taste. if i hear a good song on the radio i won't deny it, and i won't hail shitty music as awesome just because it's not on the radio.

one of my friend's from school spends hours each day joining facebook groups dedicated to shitty artists (Soulja Boy, 50 Cent, etc) and telling everyone how shitty their taste is. i'm sorry but that's just childish and distinguished mentally-challenged. if someone likes Soulja Boy who cares

exactly!  as far as I'm concerned, everyone listens to some questionable music.

me: matchbox 20

but i'm secure enough that i like it for what it is and I don't give a fuck what people think.  and I also don't really care what other people listen to.

You guys should fuck each other while a chick flick plays in the background to the tune of 3AM.

While I'm glad he's not listening to say Lil Wayne, he has absolutely no interest in experiencing a wide variety of hip hop, starting with the classics. IMO he listens to hip hop mainly for the production and doesn't appreciate good rappin. But even that doesn't justify his hate for east coast production - he thinks DJ Babu is better than fucking DJ Premier. He says RZA doesn't know how to produce. He thinks HAVOK (Infamous era Havok) is average. Says Pete Rock is meh. He's a fucktard

To make matters worse, after I criticized him for only listening to rap music - he said he "didn't like guitars" - he became a Linkin Park fan and then defended himself by reminding me that I bought Hybrid Theory when it first came out  :-\

Clearly Mupepe wasn't talking about women when he said "someone".  If he had he would have used the correct term "something".
