Things you like but "shouldn't"

Like people say they're bad all the time (or seem to) but you don't care.

My inexplicable fondness for Cow and Chicken comes to mind. Somehow the art style is like candy to me, at least, even though later on the humor got real repetitive and it's doubtful it was really good in the first place.

    I like K-On! And don't care who knows!

    I liked the show as a kid, but probably wouldn't be so stoked about it now. Although, I'm sure there are a few gags I'll always find kind of funny.

    I don't think I was ever crazy about the art style, though.
  • AnonusAnonus
    Seeing any art of it that's exaggerated as a still picture doesn't work. It looks better in motion

    You can change. You can.
    I hate the idea that you shouldn't like things.

    But I admit I sometimes get the feeling that I like some things that I shouldn't like, but I think it's mostly cause I think they don't match up with my (normal) tastes.

    @Anny. It stems from a self-righteous attitude that perpetuates itself at times.

    ^^ I sometimes get the feeling, more with sitcoms and romances than anything else.

    Nothing wrong with liking something.

    Oh I agree but sometimes I feel bad for liking things I rationally think are crap. It's not rational but hey.

    You know, instead of saying it's Irrational that you like something, why don't you examine why you like it, y'know, rationally?

    Cuz when I do, I realise that I shouldn't like it, leading to our current conundrum.

    Generally it's something like 'it's got lots of action and hot girls and cheesy one liners.'

    @Juan. Fuck your "shouldn't", fuck it.

    you got me?

    @Malk. Still nothing wrong for liking somethng because it has something that appeals to you.

    It makes me feel dumb, though... >_>

    @Malk, that's all you then, you're the one that feels enjoying something is degrading to your intelligence.
  • MillerCrossMillerCross

    Fuck you shouldn't, fuck it.
    you got me?

    It's not a "Shouldn't" as in "I shouldn't do these things" so much as in "Weird, the key shouldn't be there. No bother" you know?

    It's not something that bothers me and annoys me. I'm OK with liking things I normally don't like. I just feel weirded out by it.

    I opened saying it was irrational and I try not to do it, you know....

    It's a Jewish guilt thing.

    I think the line of thought is

    - I like X
    - X promotes value Y or sees value in Z
    - By liking X, I associate myself with Y and Z

    @Alex, that sounds too Rational for this thread.

    I also hate myself for enjoying a couple Katy Perry songs and Smallville, though the latter was more like a heroin addiction.

    I like the Confederate flag.

    The Confederates promoted racism and saw value in whiny bitchfits.

    By liking the Confederate flag, I associate myself with racism and whiny bitchfits.

    Eh, feeling guilt for liking things is silly, but it happens anyways due to moral values, social pressures, cultural expectations, etc.
