You end up making enemies. I have enough people that dislike me as it is. I don't need to add more! I would love to say how much I seriously hate the Beatles and all music like it....but you know what? Saying so causes a shitstorm of epic, biblical porportions! And next thing you know, you are getting boycotted by people such as Squid. Who needs the grief? So in a nutshell, sometimes it is more "prudent" to sugarcoat how one feels, and even say something like "Oh, the beatles are not so bad, just not my favorite band", instead of what I want to say, which is "I would like to crush them because they killed Tiki and Lounge culture and replaced it with dirty, smelly, long haired hippies"!! See how that works? :) [ Edited by: lucas vigor 2011-12-28 14:51 ]
