Of course.Howld on. Are you seriously suggesting people are wasting their time listening to music they don't actually like just to appear cool?
Does that sound likely to you?
It's absurd that you think this isn't a thing.It’s absoloutely absurd when you think about it
Of course.

Nee idea. Isn't the whole notion of hipsterism based on a the hipster liking something because it's deemed cool rather than because they genuinely like the thing?So do they only listen to the music they actually like in secret when no one else is around?

Yeah. I sit on the train with headphones in and listen to stuff that I don’t likeOf course.

That’s f***ing mental
To be honest, I think there's loads of absolute lads in skinny jeans, Gazelles, and Stone Island gear who listen to any old indie pop garbage despite not really liking it just so they can drink cans and shout the words in each other's faces - so I sorta get how you might have reached that daft conclusion.Nee idea.

I know a couple of lads who've pretended to like lasses and been in relationships with them for years and then turned out to be gay as fuck - i think if they can be so psychologically in denial it's not that much of a stretch to believe that people can convince themselves to think the Courteeners aren't absolutely hideous unlistenable shite. It's bizarre, but it does happen.To be honest, I think there's loads of absolute lads in skinny jeans, Gazelles, and Stone Island gear who listen to any old indie pop garbage despite not really liking it just so they can drink cans and shout the words in each other's faces - so I sorta get how you might have reached that daft conclusion.
Fell genuinely sorry for people who dont get the National, superb band and amazing live.
Was in the "they're just dull" camp for a long time, over a year of hearing Boxer still wondering wtf people were rambling on about and then it just clicked one day.

I see where you're coming from.
I've seen people who thought films were chod persevere with them until they like them.
If I don't like something I'll generally give it a watch or a listen and then not revisit it, unless I stumble across it on the telly or radio again by chance.
It seems these people are doing repeated viewings or listening to almost force themselves to like something.
Same with this whole gin gubbins. I recall my Mrs (no) actually saying years ago she can't stand the stuff. Lo and behold we now have a cupboard of the stuff.

I know, that's what I'm saying, I've seen it. It's a culture thing.I know a couple of lads who've pretended to like lasses and been in relationships with them for years and then turned out to be gay as fuck - i think if they can be so psychologically in denial it's not that much of a stretch to believe that people can convince themselves to think the Courteeners aren't absolutely hideous unlistenable shite.

Gin is a brilliant case in point. It's absurd that hardly any fucker bothered with it ten years ago and now even the Dolphin has probably got 231 different brands of the stuff.I see where you're coming from.
