Jess: Were you a Faith No More fan?
Yours Truly: Okay, two things: 1) Nope, hated them and 2) You're not going to believe this but despite my hatred, "We Care a Lot" was stuck in my head just before.
Jess: Hated Faith No More. Huh.
YT: Well, perhaps hated is too strong a word... "Loathed with a fiery and intense passion" is more accurate.
Jess: Wow.
YT: Actually though, I only knew a couple of songs. The lead singer bugged me mostly. I didn't hate them. I just didn't see the point.
Jess: Huh.
YT: Are we no longer friends? Can we bridge this gap?
Jess: I think we'll be okay.
YT: I don't know. It's a wide chasm. Between this and my being okay with the David Matthews Band, I think we may have reached an impasse.
Jess: I just don't think I've ever met someone who actively disliked FNM. Of course, I also don't get what all the fuss about Radiohead is.
YT: Radiohead is a polarizing band. FNM is more of an annoying flash in the pan. I don't campaign against them. They haven't made my blog, unlike say, Hootie or The Goo Goo Dolls. The latter are my default shit bands.
Jess: Mine are DMB and Oasis.
YT: Sorry but Oasis is responsible for more than one snappy tune and I like them without apology. I also like that they spit and fight on stage.
Jess: It's okay. My hatred is irrational.
YT: You just don't like English people in general. You're an anti-Anglophile.
Jess: Hardly. I love the Brits.
YT: Your distaste of HP Sauce is a gateway hatred. It's seeped into people, bands and cities. In fact, you think Liverpool can suck it, don't you? You've punched people out for saying "spool of film" or "tin of mushy peas" and Typhoo tea makes you lose your shit. Crunchie bars outrage you. Don't even get you started on Tizer. Irn-Bru is for wankers, you say. And while we're on the subject, you firmly believe that only wankers actually say "wankers" or "sod off."
Jess: You are killing me.
YT: You're lucky I'm not, like, Polish or whatever because talking about kielbasa and pierogies just isn't as funny.
