OH FANDOM SECRETS-- and other things

[alwaysbeenasmiler]

I find it funny when people make secrets going "I CANNOT SEE WHY PEOPLE ARE OBSESSED WITH THIS THING, I THINK IT'S OKAY/CRAP BUT IT'S REALLY NO BIG DEAL'. Made a secret because people as a whole are really shitty and have blinders on when it comes to other people and likes/dislikes. There are many things that I CANNOT STAND. But I do not throw off the validity of them just because I do not like them, it just means that I probably won't ever talk to someone about it because I cannot stand the thing. Everyone should do what they like the best, and to hell with everyone else.

Made a secret because the person probably realizes that PEOPLE DO NOT CARE!

Do I have things I don't like? Of course! Who doesn't!

1.) Kingdom Hearts (the unholy marriage of squenix/disney-- and I neither like Sora, Riku, Kairi or Namine)
2.) The Walking Dead (Zombies are gross and disgusting, I have seen a few episodes and I just spent the entire time thinking that if the zombie apocalypse were to occur, you can just give me an ETHER SOAKED RAG PLEASE-- anything to take away the no doubt horrible smell away)
3.) Full Metal Alchemist (it wasn't the same for me when Hughes died-- he was my only reason for watching it)
4.) Transformers or Power Rangers (I shouldn't lump the two of them together but I do-- boyfriend loves Power Rangers though, but he went to see the movie without me... thank goodness! And Transformers was not my breakout into giant robots-- that was Xenogears)

Everyone is free to have likes and dislikes-- that is what makes people so fascinating, because they are all keyed up on different things-- what makes me enthusiastic, in another person it'd spur a sort of ambivalence, and vice versa)

On a RL note-- we are in the final stage of our home buying expirience, we should be closing on the 23rd, then the fun moving occurs and that is when I probably won't be online for a few weeks while Owen and I are getting everything ready for cohabitation. It's so exciting-- seller opted to make all the repairs we requested and it's gonna be so much fun! Woohoo! <3 But best part is that I'll be living with my best friend! (he'll have to drag me away from video games ever so often, but I think it'll be a fun expirience to live with Owen)

Music Meme!

Now, due to this meme-- y'all are gonna see how varied my music taste truly is

6. A Song that you like that has a positive message -

"You Belong to You" by Johnny Hates Jazz

Watch on YouTube

Okay, so I veered-- this should of been "A song that makes you want to dance" but all my music makes me want to dance, so I decided that this was when I make this meme my own. This is personalized so to speak. This album by Johnny Hates Jazz is their current one (I seriously didn't know that it existed until a few years ago). Then I heard Magnetized and fell in love. Now, Johnny Hates Jazz is known for their classic song, "Shattered Dreams" but the lead singer is a notorious anti-war, pro native american rights, but I didn't quite realize what a feminist he was until I heard this song, but it makes so much sense-- this song is pretty much about how a woman doesn't belong to a man, no matter the relationship-- be it marriage or anything else. That love should be a guiding light, and freely given between both parties-- I have never heard such a positive message from a male singer, definitely a song that is worth the listening to!

I'm with you on the secrets. Most people are not crappy about if they don't like something you like. I generally just ignore things I don't like or have no interest in.
My husband likes the Walking Dead and I will watch it if I'm in the room, but I'm usually doing other things. I find it boring actually and 90% of the characters insufferable. Still, a lot of my friends like it and I don't give them crap about it. To each his own.

Good luck with your closing! Hope it goes smoothly for you.

Ah, I can understand what you mean by that. We all have things we either like or dislike for various reasons, and in the case of someone who really likes something I have no interest in...I am simply respectful and polite by not really discussing the topic with them, instead of trying to break them down in an argument or something. Everyone's opinions vary, and throwing off the validity of something just because you happen to not care for it is a strange concept to me. Even if I am not the biggest fan of something, I can usually acknowledge and understand why it is something that someone else might like and care for in their own way. :) I couldn't help but nod my head in agreement with your thoughts on the matter. :D

I wish you all the best with the closing and moving in to your new home with Owen! ♥

That song has a wonderfully positive message to it! Thank you for sharing it with us! ♥

Yeah, there's nothing wrong with people being into other things you aren't interested in. I don't see why people sometimes flip out about it. Sometimes I'll tease Doug about things (all in good fun), but he's perfectly allowed to love Dr. Who, vintage Matchbox cars, and pinball. Meanwhile, I like my vintage Pyrex, reality cooking shows, and vintage swung vases.

Congrats on being so close to closing on the home! Yay!
