Dude, like what you like. Fuck the fallacious appeals to shame from others.

Circa 1988 I was sitting in the high school cafeteria listening to very early techno on my big fat Walkman knockoff and obnoxiously large headphones. Acquaintance rolls up to me and says "Lemme listen." I hand him the headphones. "This is good but I could, like, only listen to this in a club." My response? "Your loss."

Years later, I discover Deadmau5, and then the whole electronic music scene that I had been blissfully listening to for years without giving a fuck ex-fucking-splodes. I could not believe it.

Just like what you like and fuck haters.

Amen. Recently bought a car that came with XM Sirius, and I've rediscovered a lot of old hip hop from the late 80s and early 90s. Nothing like pulling up to an intersection blaring Jump Around or Fresh Prince (before he "became" Will Smith lol)
