Oh sorry, I forgot that you know everything.
So the other day, I was listening to music and someone mentioned that the band was “musical wallpaper” or some pretentious bullshit. It got me thinking that I fucking hate music snobs. This incident wasn’t really a big deal, but this is something that has been pissing me off for a good 10 years. These people think that they have some divine musical knowledge and it is there duty to make people listen to their classic rock, or Dave Matthews Band or Techno, or some type of shit that you clearly don’t want to. On top of that, they feel that they have to show you the errors of your way listening to what you want to. It’s like this guy in Target trying to share his “I Love Jesus, America and George Bush, but Fags should die” religion with me while I’m trying to buy a fucking towel. Leave me the fuck alone with that shit.
They all might have a little different type of music that they preach, but their techniques are all the same. It maybe Phish The Doors or some other shit you have to smoke weed to like. Or techno or house, or some other type of electronic music that you will most likely mistakenly call techno and have to be on ecstasy to like. Or some super alt band that no one has heard of, that they like primarily because no one has heard of them. You know what, dick; if they were good, other people would have heard of them. Now I don’t care what people listen to, I also know people want to share what they like with others. That’s just being nice. Thanks Ryan for giving me the Wolfmother CD. But, If I don’t like what you are playing, that’s gotta be fucking cool with you. Don’t say, “you just don’t understand it” or “pay attention to the drums” or “You should get high. You would love this if you were baked”
If I have to be fucking high to like music, then I probably don’t like it. It’s like an ugly girl; if you have to get drunk to hook up with her then you probably don’t really like her either.
These guys use the techniques they teach you about in DARE. They peer pressure. “Dude, everyone likes Dave Matthews Band!” or “the cool kids listen to DJ Girl I went to High School with.” They will gang up on you and all demand that the 4-hour trip to Pullman will be all Jack Johnson. Parents need to be worried about these fuckers. No one tried to pressure me into doing coke or heroin but they sure as hell tried to get me listen to G. Love and Special Sauce.
Jason Wakefield is currently listening to James Blunt. Who by the way, according to a friends blog, is the one of the most annoying people to listen to.
In a related note, People who wear striped shirts do not like it when you put ABBA on the Jukebox.
