Heh. Yeah, I run into that a lot. And then of course there's the related "I like everything... as long as it has a beat that I can dance to". I hate that one. It like saying "I like everything... except for about 99% of all music ever made."

b)say the above and then go on to list a handful of current chart acts, and because one is emo and one is indie they say 'see, pretty diverse'.

Guilty. Read my introduction thread. I wasn't the smartest when I joined.

Yeah, I find that.

It does crack me up when noobs say they have diverse tastes. Have a look at my collection then lol Although that is elitist- fuck it!

I'm a noob and I would say I have diverse tastes. Although joining this forum has definately helped expand my tastes.

My biggest pet peeve is the standard 'rap isn't real music' statement that comes through every few weeks.

Many people at my school are really bad with that. More then half the people I have come across believe that rap isn't music. What really bothers me is people generalizing the whole genre with the whole "its only about sex, drugs, and gangsters" because the only rap/hip-hop they have most likely seen is the ****ty MTV stuff.

It pisses me off that some people thought Anteater and I were the same person.

Ugh that's another terrible one. Those are the people for whom music will never be anything more than a social accompaniment.

But the resemblance is striking!

I don't exactly lose sleep over it, but when people use this smiley;

I mean, it's not like it adds anything to a post. It's just completely pointless and annoying.

Yeah, MB has quite a few pointless smilies (the baseball, basketball and soccer ball all come to mind) and yet there's no puking smiley which I'd think would be much more useful, especially if, say, Limp Bizkit come up in conversation.

"Oh, Music Banter, it really pisses me off when people..."
...post duplicate threads.

Catch my drift?
