Frownland has been on my case from almost day one, and still is. I try to be friendly but his snark just gets in the way every time. The best we can probably do is see each other at weddings and funerals, and the rest of the time avoid each other like the plague.
Thanks for the compliment, by the way.

I do that thing where I point out the flaws in his thinking.
I'm on everyone's case, you just give me a lot of files to work with.

I honestly don't see where it's any of your business how I think, but then, this is your world after all: you created it and we are all your slaves, so what do I know?

This is the problem though: you're not. There are people whom I assume you respect (Exo, Jansz, Batty to some extent) and whom you therefore leave alone. It's only the ones you "target", like me and Chula, that you concentrate on. I could literally say something you would snark me for, and Exo (for instance) could say the same thing and you would say nothing. You're not consistent, and that's what's so annoying. The word cherrypicking was invented for you.

I care because you're usually talking **** on good music when you're being all illogical and closed minded.

Relying on the nature of subjectivity instead of your own thoughts to justify your stances is objectively a weak cop out.

Actually, **** it, no: wall of text coming. Read or ignore as you wish, if the latter skip to the tealdear at the end, as if you needed to be told. I should make it clear this really has nothing to do with you being a mod, it's kind of to explain to the likes of Occult why I don't like you. Frownland, the problem I have with you is your arrogance, which is big enough to fill several galaxies. You don't seem to be able to comprehend the fact or allow for the possibility that though you may love artist A, someone else might not, and if this happens you automatically label them as either "not getting it", "lazy", "ignorant" or (my personal favourite) "having no taste." I've even tried: when I came back here in 2011 I still said stupid, ignorant things like "jazz is crap", "extreme metal is terrible" and "punk is just noise". Some of that I kind of still maintain, but I have taken the time and made the effort to at least explore these genres, even if minimally. Sometimes I've been surprised by what I found, often not, but I always allow that it's just "not for me", not that it's crap. Hell, I'm even giving hip-hop a fair shake through my new thread. You, though, decide that whatever I listen to is crap specifically because you don't like it. That should not matter. I won't like everything you like and vice versa, but I don't go out of my way to tell you how crap Shabazz Palaces or whatever is; I accept it's not for me, you enjoy it so good luck. I don't tell you you have terrible taste for enjoying something I don't. You though, do this all the time. Listen, you can hate Genesis and Marillion all you like, it's no skin off. But you should accept that I like them, and that does not make my taste inferior to yours. I even tried meeting you halfway on Beefheart, and all I got was "Oh you're only into the safe stuff". So I am. So what? It's almost as if you didn't want me to get into Beefheart (don't worry: I never really did) because that would remove one of the sticks you like to use to beat me with. Although you give the impression that you want me to be into the music you're into (to "improve my taste", as I'm sure you'd refer to it), when I do, you act all snarky (there's a surprise!) whether I like it or not. Like I said, it's as if you don't want your weapons taken away from you. You can have your music: I don't care. But when you accuse me of various things from being close-minded to having inferior, or no taste, just because I don't like your music, that's when I realise there really is no common ground between us, and never will be. tealdear: I don't like Frownland because he's arrogant and thinks his is the barometer of music taste.
