    Probably the cursed remixes on YouTube, they don’t need to know how much of a banger beatswapped uptown funk is.

    My Chemical Romance — the first two albums at least, wasn’t a fan of “Black Parade”

    …every once in awhile i listen to top fourty countdowns from the mid-eighties, not necessarily because i enjoy the music, but because i’m mesmerised by the time-warp effect of revisiting period radio programs…

    …i disliked a lot of the music then but i appreciated the shared cultural experience of legitimately popular broadcast media, and retrospectively it’s a window into a world which no longer exists…

    None!

    There should be no guilty pleasures in music. Especially dating. It’s much more attractive to have a wide range of tastes and be comfortable with what you like.

    Why isn’t it just common practice to just use “they” instead the entirely cumbersome “he/her”?

    Like it’s just so much easier to type out and say, and it’s just better to use regardless.

      Love how the top comment doesn’t even answer the question. But TIL, I guess. If I had known this option existed, I probably would have used it. I’m going to play the “not a native english speaker”-card on this one.

      Not only is it more readable and aesthetically-pleasing, singular “they” is more inclusive of people outside the gender binary!

      The fun part is that you’ll have people complaining about it either way!

        I was taught this very aggressively in school, but it turns out that it’s just not true and there’s a long history of singular they.

        My friend forgot their umbrella at the office.

        They nervously answered the phone.

        They’re a lazy motherfucker.

        I gave my friend a hug and wished them a speedy recovery.

        Any of those sound unusual, or like they’re referring to more than one person?

        It doesn’t though. They has been used for singular without knowing the gender for a long time.

    Doesn’t exist. I tell them what I like. If they can’t handle the truth then it wouldn’t work anyway.

    I also don’t have guilty pleasures. I enjoy things.
