What we like is being normal, doing regular Boston things.
Found the Neo burner account.

Yeah when someone says they listen to all the cool new music it usually means that this person just consumes different versions of the same bland indie band from 2006, whatever today's equivalents of Bon Iver or Mamford and Sons or Arctic Monkeys are.

What you said is "these pretentious hipsters with their deep cuts like the less popular MGMT records"

The point that others are making is that thinking yourself to be curios and having the capacity to explore new musical horizons while never going beyond the present moment of your own culture is pretty sad.

That said, I can understand why there would be no payoff for you to try to get into Stravinsky, The Marble Index or PIL: to be able to step outside the habitual categories in which you appreciate music, to suspend your prejudices about what is beautiful and allow for the possibility that the din and the racket and the wailing and the caterwauling you're hearing could even be pleasurable, you need some imagination. Respectfully, this doesn't seem to be your strong suit. Which is fine, we're all different. There should be basic incomprehension between you and Elph.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

Well that's what usually happens when you're trying to insult someone by resorting to generalizations: whoever else happens to be in the room becomes unintended collateral damage.

Also throwing around this type of statements about other people's musical taste makes you (i.e. me in this case) sound more judgmental than you really are, but what you're gonna do, never snipe at other people?
