I come here and see people hating on popular movies, TV shows, and music all the time. They're popular for a reason and usually that reason is because they are pretty damn good. Cmon guys, open your minds.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.

Because whether somethibg is good or not is not an objective term but rather one down to personal preference?

Pop music just annoys me something like 90% of the time.

Most mainstream movies just seem dumbed down and overly flashy.

the one true God is Doctor Doom and we should all be worshiping him.
Because, ironically enough, it's cool to hate cool things.

Because I like whatever the fuck I want and dislike whatever the fuck I want. It's popularity has nothing to do with it, but if it seems like I only hate popular things it's because most popular things are shit. Their popularity has nothing to do with it.

My stupidity is self evident.
The things which I like tend to fall outside those bounds while a lot of the things that I do not like are within them.

Excuse me, I'm full of dog poison
I learned a long time ago that popular doesn't always mean good.
That being said I do enjoy a lot of popular things.

Then you have the sperglords who hate popular things just to be special snowflakes.
There's a couple users on this website that forr this category.

The Walking Dead and Paranormal Activity are not good. Not at all.

Hating things that are popular efficiently allows you to feel superior to as many people as possible.  Hating on niche shit no one cares about would just be wasted effort.

You know that could easily be applied on the flipside right?

Funny though. Somebody called me a hipster once, for wanting to build my own house, on land that I own, out in a wilder spot away from people.

Some people do stray away from mainstream stuff for the sake of being contrary. Others do it because they want to. It all comes down to personal preference. And, likewise, just because it's mainstream, doesn't mean its good.

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.
The Walking Dead and Paranormal Activity are not good. Not at all.

I give you a -0/15. How does that feel, Susan?

Alternate explanation when people hate niche shit no one cares so they only react to popular things being hated.
