Anyways. This is a lame attempt to try and defend some music opinions I have, because I'm tired of people telling me how crappy my music is.
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Give me a better argument than "Down South Hillbilly Wanna Be Country Shit Music." Yes, you don't like listening to them, give me specific examples and I will awesomely say "Hey I respect that opinion." If you are trying to convince me that I'm a retard for listening to them, and you say "Because they are crappy southern rock hillbillys" please leave my sight, for you have failed horribly at debating your cause.
Guns N Roses - November Rain - You will never convince me that this song sucks. Stop trying. I don't care how much of a douche Axl is. If I'm at your house or something, change the song. If you're at my place and it's on, shut the fuck up or walk away.
Also honorable mentions are Mid Nineties Metallica, Old Korn, and Tool. Metallica changed their pace, it's not worth breaking shit over. Change happens. Get over it. The older Korn stuff I can still play. I don't like the last 10 years or so, but to each his own. And tool... I love tool. You can always tell the guy talking about how Tool sucks has never really listened to them. One of his buddies told him that tool sucks and hes just replaying the same message in his head to sound cool.
NOW! Flame me for my disgusting musical opinions. I'm sorry I like popular stuff!!! Elitists, tear me down!!!

Lynyrd Skynyrd fans can't spell Lynyrd Skynyrd.
I don't like them for the same reasons I don't like Steve Miller, Foreigner, Nickleback and the Black Eyed Peas. Because they suck.
Opinion not fact sir!
The fact is those hillybillys suck dick.
Allman Brothers so much > than Lynyrd Skynyrd it's not even funny. Also, that's too many Ys.
And didn't the esteemed Mr. K go see Foreigner? Or was it Journey? Fuck, I dunno, I know it was one of those lame 80s bands that love the cock.
I used to be really, really super ridiculously into Tool. But their latest album is super gay. It seems like they set out to parody themselves. That, or it just sucks.
It should be noted, Crack the Skye kinda sorta, if you squint, sounds like Tool would sound if they'd gone in a more metal direction after Opiate instead of the path of Proggy wankery (not that casting aspersions on Proggy wankery, I like Proggy wankery).
I would like to know the consensus on what is "sucking"
The Y's in their name? Their fanbase?
A chimp beating on some drums and a dog barking in a mic sucks.
Those guys could play/write/perform music at a very high level. True, some people don't like listening to them, but you guys aside, theres like 6000 times more people who say they hate Skynyrd because they've heard things EXACTLY like you say.
This happens all the time, and everytime I rationally think about the other persons arguments, they look like a fool. They suck because they have a bunch of Y's and their fanbase is redneck.
"Baseball sucks because it is slow paced"
I suspect the majority of the haters are "Tommy thinks it sucks, so its cool to think it sucks, they suck!!"
Look all I'm not going to change anyones mind, but people always want to argue and try to convince me that a band I've listened to since I could comprehend music sucks. Then they back it up with arguments like the ones before.
P.S. I love the Alman Brothers too, I don't see why it has to be one or the other. See: Metallica and Megadeth feuding fans.
Yea, I did name this post "This is futile."
My problem with them stems largely from being an elitist asshole. Also, I don't like many things that are popular. I become upset when things I like become popular.
I blame this on listening to too much punk growing up.
It is an irrational behavioral pattern and too late to correct it.
Enjoy whatever you enjoy. I tend not to believe in guilty pleasures. Probably because I'm so arrogant that I believe anything I like is good and anyone who disagrees is wrong.
Other items of note:
Disliking things because rednecks like them is a fairly useful pattern to apply. Not always but often.
Soccer sucks because it is slow.
Baseball is good despite being slow. Baseball being slow rarely bothers me. Too many timeouts and commercial breaks in football (or even worse the end of basketball games) drives me nuts. I don't know how to make this a rational pattern or reconcile why one is acceptable and the other(s) aren't. Inherent bias, I guess.
Also, soccer is for fags. I hate the flopping more than the pacing.
Probably more inconsistent rambling to follow later. I'm bored at work.
Baseball is good despite being slow.Yea, I honestly enjoy the anticipation. Like waiting on football plays.
You can think about stuff.
"Is he going to throw the slider?"
"It's 3-2, DON'T GET CAUGHT LOOKING ASSHOLE"
etc.
