I was in court all morning, so this post was much delayed.
Given the context of the delay, I'm asking you to be the judge... what music do you judge people for listening to/liking? Both favorable and unfavorable. This could be fun, right?
For example, I judge people for listening to Christmas music too early, and then turning it off immediately after Christmas too. Or I judge them harshly for liking "Last Christmas" at all. There are non-Christmas examples too, I suppose. Stop hassling me.
Or you don't really have to do this if you don't want. You could just drop a list. I'm not one to judge.
This tops joe's tag from yesterday: 88 vs 79 characters.
Hopefully this doesn't start an arms race.
Well, this ain't a scene...

4. A typo on the band's name just gave me a great idea for an all-female BOA tribute band (as if there's a market for that).
I think I could listen to Rick Beato videos on Youtube all day...
I'd probably slightly judge someone if they told me they're into the "Bro"-country or whatever from a few years ago (is that still a thing?). "Big fan of that Nelly crossover."
Stuff like this:
But I dunno, we all have our reasons, histories, etc. There's layers to everything, and anything I haven't gotten into might have its features that I've dismissed.
I'm on the record for being very judgey when Corn had Ace of Base on his Friday list.
An I think I'm on the record as saying there's one AoB song that shouldn't be judged.
My recent background music has been a station based on The Interrupters. Judge away, but it's awesome.
