I know, but it’s about self-awareness isn’t it? They just assume everyone likes it.

I used to work with a guy who liked rock – like Deftones, Black Spiders, Samsara Blues Experiment, Pantera, etc. But then it became clear he was a Trump-supporting Brexit Tory wanker so we no longer talk.

You mean ATP?

This thread has spookily come to life. In the tea/coffee area just now, I just ended up chatting with a guy from another department who was wearing a Slint t-shirt. And it turns out that we have a non-work friend in common. The Slint guy is originally from Portugal so I asked him about some Portuguese bands, one of whom are friends of mine and also, it turns out, friends of his.

guy sat opposite me is really into music and is clearly desperate to chat about it with somebody, anybody. whenever he tries with me I immediately shut that shit down because I’m a terrible person and find it funny, even though it would probs be quite an enjoyable chat

Boy that sits next to me likes Leann Rimes. Fair enough but that seems to be all he likes. He’s in his 50’s

The Everlasting is a bit gorgeous.
