I also frown at you for bitching so often about being frowned at.

It's either that or ignoring 9/10 of your replies to me. You're not making this easy!

I understand that you seem to have an OCD thing where the things that bug you really seem to bug you and you can't let them go, but you also seem unwilling to even try to counter this by keeping an open mind.

Maybe because Frownland's insistence that he knows what's going on in my mind better than I do annoys me so much that I'm just going to be stubborn about it out of spite.

Most people aren't aware of their own biases.

He tends to have that effect on you. Just try to ignore it and remember what you like and don't like. Don't let him stray you.

I've found very few things funny about him, but I'd say 98% of the time, Nea is literally the most unfunny person on this forum, and that includes you.

Case in point.

Why? Because he doesn't agree with you?

I don't know if I'm being too picky, but I feel like I'm giving things lots of chances and extra chances. And just reacting honestly on things I'm checking out. I don't know if I should talk more about what I like. I don't like being seen as "that guy who hates everything".

This is how I was for a while. You try to "fit in" by listening to the music they all think you should be/kissing the musical arses they kiss, but in the end it's wasted effort because they won't accept you any more for even trying. They'll kick you for not trying, and they'll kick you for trying and not getting it. Sometimes they'll even kick you for trying and getting it. Just not worth it. Be yourself, man, and **** the lot of them if they don't like it. That's how I manage to survive here.

He never does. Best to ignore him; he'll eventually get bored and wander away.

Me with Office Space. They just don't get it.

It is because Kiiii is generally humourless.

That's true, but I don't feel like I'm being unreasonable about, for example, progressive rock. I really am trying to just listen first, then save the reactions for later. If it isn't clicking, then I either need to return again some other time or to check out another band with a different sound. I don't think I can suddenly appreciate Yes just by thinking about their music differently, but maybe I'm wrong about that.

Nah it's fine. Just because I sometimes want to beat him over the head with a shovel, it doesn't mean I have anything against him.
