'I think the simple solution to the issues venin is having, would be for all reviews to contain "imo" whenever an opinion is being expressed. This way, all potential confusion can be avoided. I cannot envisage a reason why this shouldn't now be standard practice.'

i've had debates on here with people who think subjective opinions should be explicitly outlined as such. so you shouldn't say "this is the best album of the decade" but instead should say "this is my favourite album of the decade"



I can see what they mean but imo music is inherently subjective so you should take any statement of an album or band's quality as being subjective just by default

i think the disconnect comes when statements just read super judgmentally not just on the music but on the people consuming the music

it's one thing to simply say "this sucks" and it's a whole nother to say something like "this is an affront to good taste" which implies an indictment on every fan's taste if they like it, the latter just sorta feels like some dingbat walking into the room when you're watching a movie they hate and yelling "don't you know this sucks? stop having fun"

It doesnt work when you think your supreme opinion matters more than everyone and youre bothered by others just talking. Having to delcare your opinion is your opinion is kindergarten discourse and the way you showboat is a bit hypocritical. Music nazi.

The fact that this needs to be explained to people is tragic. I blame it on the gradual downfall of our public education systems.

Venin have you ever gone 5 minutes of your life without the creeping paranoia that you are somehow the epicentric victim of whatever is going on at any given time?

the tl;dr: like or dislike whatever, my opinion isn't worth more, it's the moment people start trying to indict others' tastes that it just gets tiring. i've gotten random ass comments on my last.fm shoutbox complaining that my taste sucks eventually that's just gotta be a nuisance for the person on the other end

"it's the moment people start trying to indict others' tastes that it just gets tiring at this point. i've gotten random ass comments on my last.fm shoutbox complaining that my taste sucks, it's all the same shit a different day"



And now you do the same, repeating history, instead of building a better tomorrow.

Is my exquisite taste really making you feel that inadequate about your own ratings?

idr what i said but i apologize, i did the same thing. last thing I recall is a singular radiohead fan went after a band i love for covering karma police so i got mad, that was wrong of me

just tired, all i wanted was my taste to be respected, yet i didn't treat others with the same grace

venin you should never care what anyone thinks about your taste. someone disses it, laugh it off and throw it right back at them
