I only listen to subliminal trance hop house monkeycore. It's the pinnacle of music, which you obviously know nothing about. It's played best at 3000 BPM on a record player balanced on top of a chunk of diorite.

Alternative suggestion: "well that sure is a salient phenomenon" I also hate phrases that have their origin in Gamer Thrones like "bend the knee" or "winter is coming". Like ugh cut it out already

So that's my go-to answer. My reaction would be hesitant enthusiasm, like half of me would think they are just messing with me (which I guess they are), and the other half would be dying to finally get to talk about my secret love of country rap with somebody without a sense of shame.

I wonder if any of those people who used to go on YouTube comments and bleat about how they're only 13 but they listen to classic rock (like Papa Roach and Limp Bizkit and songs they heard in Guitar Hero) and they hate all pop music ever got over themselves. Do people still do that? I've had YouTube comments blocked for years at this point.

I still see stuff like "why don't they make real music anymore like led zeppelin, ...(lists dad's other favorite bands)?" etc all over any new song. A more modern version are the memes where it compares lyrics from like nicki minaj songs to the beatles or whatever side by side.

It was actually comments like those that prompted me to start blocking them rather than anything to do with politics or religion. Those people (still) need to get over themselves. Probably all think C.C. DeVille is a virtuoso guitarist or something. Apropos of nothing, I always thought this section on the Wikipedia page for the band Culture Club felt like it was written by one of those Classic Rock Teenagers who really likes Culture Club and was desperately trying to convince themselves and others that Culture Club is a rock band.

Country rap is amazing. It's fun as hell to listen to on long drives. But the scene itself is terrifying. Lots of juggalos gone country.

Yeah, it's the kind of thing where I'd only want to associate with people who don't take it too seriously, because it dives off very quick from relatively normal people to the juggalo-esque ones and people who you wouldn't be surprised were in the KKK. I just think it's fun to listen to, and even funnier to see topics such as having nowhere to spit your dip or driving trucks in the mud taken so seriously in the songs.

In the summertime When the weather is fine You can drink and drive And it's totally fine In the summertime We go drinking before driving all the time My favorite oldies are the ones that encourage practices we now recognise to be literally antisocial, and yes, I am aware that that isn't how the song goes and that they only make one mention of drunk driving in the lyrics, but it amuses me nonetheless. Also that song about a "friendly stranger in a black sedan | won't you hop inside my car" is hilarious." But for every word in the actual lyrics to that song, there is a "classic rock" song about statutory rape.

I imagine the guys in Greta Van Fleet or other throwback bands are still like that. You know, it's weird that I remember some of these things, but one example of such comments I really distinctly recall is this video where Ronnie James Dio was griping about how much he didn't like American Idol and the top-rated comment was something like, "He sounds like me arguing against Bieber!" What struck me about it was just, how do you "argue against" a pop star? It just seemed very silly to me. One good one was on a Duke Ellington video where one guy commented, "They don't make music like this any more," and someone chimed in with, "Yeah, because POP and RAP have RUINED everything and teenagers don't listen to REAL ROCK AND ROLL," (or something like that) to which the original guy said something like, "Rock and roll destroyed real music; I only listen to jazz and 20th century classical," which I think threw the second guy for a bit of a loop.  I've never heard anything by Greta Van Fleet. Honestly, if I want to listen to Led Zeppelin-type music I can just listen to Led Zeppelin. There are new bands playing retro music that I like, though (I like Vintage Trouble, Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night-Sweats, JD McPherson and some others).

It and "bend the knee" are pretty common in fantasy novels. Game of Thrones is more following the trend there rather than inventing or even popularising anything. Yes but as already said, it extremely noticeably only picked up widespread traction after GoT farted it out.

When I first heard of Game of Thrones, I thought "Yeah, I'll probably give it a watch." Then never got around to it. Then caught a glimpse of the scene where they're torturing a guy with a rat bucket and I noped the gently caress out and have no desire to watch the rest of the show. If I want violence, I'll watch some Fallout playthroughs. If I wanna slap my peen around, I'll watch some nice wholesome pornography. PHUO: Runny egg yolks are no bueno. If you really want runny yolks, here's one weird trick that chefs hate: loving drink the egg raw, don't gently caress around with fire and oil and pans.

Fans of Game of Thrones are like Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul/The Wire fans. Most of them refuse to accept you saying you think it's alright but aren't really into it, and will launch into a lecture on how you're supposed to watch it and pointing out all the ~symbolism~ you missed etc. I'm the guy who has seen it like 3 times and still doesn't know most of the non-primary character names or the backstories etc, I'm just in it for the medieval titties and whacking each other with swords, let me like it my own braindead way instead of acting like me liking it is somehow going to tarnish the reputation of your ~fandom~.
