Well, in a lot of cases I'm not particularly interested in discussing media criticism.
Mostly, though, there was a period of my life where I was the guy who thought less of people because they listened to music I considered shitty. I sort of had an epiphany when I realized that I couldn't really defend some of the music I listen to, but I liked it anyway, at which point it became obvious to me that people who judge others based on music preference, of all things, are insufferable pricks.
At that point, I was still interacting with (mostly on the internet) people who did that, to the extent where most of the time when someone criticized some kind of music, they were being a massive douchebag about it.
That's when I left the Adult Swim message boards, pretty much. :P
In any case, I now enjoy an extremely wide variety of music, movies, and books that other people consider shitty or mediocre or what have you. My problem is when people express their opinion in objective terms, like "X music sucks" or "Y movie is the worst shit to ever be shit out of a butt". I'm a lot less sensitive about people who say "I don't really like X" or "Y isn't really for me", because it implies an understanding that their opinion is something personal and not some objective truth.
The problem is that on the internet, people use "X is shitty" all the time. Most of the time I'm able to contain my irritation, since I know that most people don't mean it that way, but I'm only human and sometimes I let my annoyance get the best of me.
For the record, though, if any of you really do believe that enjoying certain bands legitimately makes someone a worse person, you're an insufferable silly goose.
Background bit number two: I go to school in Blacksburg, which is very cold and windy right now (the temperature is mildly unusual, but the city's windier than fucking Chicago). If you're not wearing a closed coat, you're going to get cold very fast.
Anyway, today I got a large slice of pizza in a cardboard to-go container, and ate about half of it before choir. I was trying to zip up my coat before I went outside, but I was walking with people and I didn't want to leave them, so I couldn't put my pizza down. Soon enough, we got outside, and I commented to Paige that having her hair down suited her (she usually wears a semi-ponytail). That progressed into an ordinary conversation, and after a couple of times breaking off in mid-sentence because of a sudden gust of freezing wind on my torso and/or hands, I decided to put the pizza box in my mouth and finally zip up my damn coat. Paige said that I looked silly like that, and I cracked up, saying (through the box) "Oh, really, I thought this was normal!" We both started laughing really hard and saying things like "I see it all the time!", though it took me only a couple dozen seconds to zip up. Then I said "I'm using it as a fashion accessory, it's all the rage" which set off another bout of laughter (though we never really stopped laughing after I started). Then, alas, she went to her dorm, and I continued to mine.
This is almost as bad as Than's 80s chats.
Actually that would make a perfect birthday gift for some of my friends.
I guess my habits are beauteous perfection.
Chevy Chase did!
The asshole half of me says that I can't excrete my bodily fluids when and where ever I want so why should a woman.
The reasonable half of me says that titties aren't always a sexual thing and I tend to not be fascinated by children sucking on a knob so it wouldn't bother me.
Guess it depends on if I've had my coffee or not.
I don't know you well but it would still suck to lose you.
30s.

Oh noooooo not smoke in their eyes oooooooh noooooooooooo
Well that's what addicts do. Also the various anti-MJ movies also tended to love the idea that if you gave a black man some weed, he'd turn into a violent rapist. I'm not sure I've ever met a stoner who had the motivation to become violent let alone the effort needed to become a proper rapist.
I also love how there is a syringe there. Like, were people shooting weed back in the day?

Ahaha that is great.
it's weird you're saying all this when I installed it because of you
it's like you knew the right answer but didn't know why
anyway yeah I have never had a virus problem, even going months without any antivirus, but I have MSE now and it's nice.
Man, you can't hate on the posters I've been posting. They're great.
Your package is on an ADVENTURE!
Coming this Fall from Pixar!
We've had that happen with some shipments. Always worth a laugh.
I've found the same thing with it. Thing put Norton to shame.
Someone help me for reals. I am not going to call the judge any homosexual euphemism.
Nevermind that it only started to lightly snow a half an hour ago and they usually deliver around 4PM. The entire day was clear.
I wish I could shoot up Lust. Bet that totally gets you off.
All slicked back tooth-hairs and swimming while flexing.
you fucker
I need to rescue my bong. we always kept it in my uncle's attic because it was the safest place, but he passed away a few months ago and it's just been up there all alone ever since.

just make sure there are no pets in the house.
My mind is a conduit for Truth. It passes into my mind and inhabits it.
I think I'll save A Serious Man for solo viewing.
Or, as Pony has proven, large stuffed animals.
Look I'm not going to respond this kind of fishing.
If you need help use google.

does that hurt
Well it's not going to be laugh out loud uproarious or anything.
Jennifer Body's will TRY to be that, but it's hit or miss.
