And when will people realize music is a subjective experience and just because you like something doesn't mean everybody else will like it. What made me make this thread is a situation that happened in park couple of days ago.

5 days ago in park 3 of those "im so hard cause I listen to black/death metal" pussies with long girly hair walked up to me and my friend and started bull****ting us cause I was having Limp Bizkit t-shirt and my friend was having SlipKnot t-shirt. One of them had "Mayhem" t, another "Deicide" and third one wasn't wearing a shirt of a band. "Deicide" guy came up to me and said "Limp Bizkit is for ***gots and Durst sucks listen to some real metal". I said :"What, like some girly long-haired wanna-be-hard emo pussies nobody knows or cares about "? He got pissed off and started talking how they sing about death and torture and are so badass and NOT emo, I started laughing and said "woow you must be so hardcore then, means you are a real badass and you kill and torture people right?" He had no answer to that but then he spoke again changing the subject, saying "Limp Bizkit has rap influences, meaning you like Soulja Boy and Lil Wayne too ha? And you think they're harder yeah?". I replied:"dude, get your facts straight Soulja Boy and Lil Wayne are **** and not rap, REAL rap is stuff like Tupac, Eminem, Eazy E etc and FYI at least most real rappers are from hood/ghetto and they've seen more violence and death than you and most other poserish sub-urban wanna-be-hard bands you listen to have". Then he, having no more arguments said "get off the swing", I said "no we were here first", he replies "why don't you go listen to your terrible douchebag music, douchebag" I said "why don't go you suck satan's cock?", then he lost control and tried to hit me(which is a bad idea since I go to gym regularly and train kickboxing), I dodged his punch and elbowed him in mouth, breaking some of his teeth and making him bleed hard also knocking him onto the ground. My friend also got ready for a fight, but other 2 of his friends ran away while he tried to get up while screaming" PLEASE LEAVE ME ALONE PLEASE", I let him go, then he got up, pulled himself together and ran away too.

Me and my friend discussed it and we are wondering a couple of things.

First of all, how much of a stuck up, complexed, narrow-minded whiny insecure **** do you have to be to bother somebody because he listens to a different music genre than you?

Second, how can you think that listening to a certain type of music can make you hard? It won't make your muscles stronger, it won't give you fighting skills, it won't make you braver, so stop being delusional and get back to real world, if you wanna be hard you gotta do some hard physical and mental training, not act like a stuck up conservative elitist bitch. For ****S sake, my dad, retired badass police officer who has seen more violence and death and been in more fights than all death/metal band members together(not that 0 is hard to beat LOL) listens to our country's classic rock bands(which aren't aggressive at all)

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against people listening to that kind of music - everybody is free to do as he wants as long as he doesn't endanger other's freedom. That means if you want to think you are hardcore, sure go ahead, THINK it but to say **** in my face is a threat to my freedom and somebody may knock the **** out of you if you do it while not hiding behind the screen.

Third, how can HE call ME a douchebag? I mean from the whole situation and who provoked who I think we can clearly see he is a douchebag, but is he really that blind/stupid that he thinks he was right?

Fourgth, why do you think they even walked up to us, did they really think they can kick our asses? Admittedly, the "Deicide" guy who attacked me was a bit bigger than me, but mostly cause of his fat, he wasn't very muscly and by his movements I don't think he ever trained any martial art

So, what's your opinion on this whole situation? I shared this story with people in my class, ofc rap listeners were delighted but why did some metal heads got hurt? I mean, I wouldn't EVER attack somebody for their music taste, I was the ATTACKED ONE and some took me for a villain
