calling just about any form of art pretentious is a knee-jerk reactionary response to having no better or remotely substantive basis upon which to accredit one’s distaste.

I was gonna say that. Like I agree with what Johnny said but I think in most scenarios people call things pretentious because it's a convenient way to insult something they don't like and make it look like there's something the artists are actually doing wrong instead of a subjective gripe

'calling just about any form of art pretentious is a knee-jerk reactionary response to having no better or remotely substantive basis upon which to accredit one’s distaste.'


i can understand where you are coming from, but this a bit hyperbolic. you can call art pretentious without it being a knee jerk reactionary response. and i can understand that if someone doesnt communicate their specific gripes, it makes it seem as if they are having a knee jert reactionary response.

i just think its a bit silly if someone goes 'i find this pretentious' and someone elses response is 'wow knee jerk much, you must not have any substantive criticism'.

maybe they just dont feel like explaining themselves? maybe theyre lazy? maybe theyre shitposting

i get that you like this, but honestly theres something about the vocals and lyrics that just dont sit well with me and smack of self importance

that was your second mistake



your first was saying you're proud of your pie chart and not insecure about it like me and then in your next comment trying to justify it as being reflective of your taste as a teenager which you've since outgrown

mort has excellent taste in genres that most serious fans on this site have godawful taste in
colton has awful taste in genres so basic that he might as well be harassing strangers in coffee shops over them instead of strangers online
choose ur fighter
