Agreed - I keep meeting people at gigs who don't know what "employed" means. |

Anecdotal evidence doesn't really count for shit. All of the people I've known who are really into metal are neither lazy nor chronically unemployed. I don't really think that proves shit about shit. The problem here is that these terms like 'hard working' are not even defined. What is the definition of 'hard working' that these people are going on? If it's supposed to mean something like 'materialistic ambitions' then it's really not a negative thing to not be hard working as far as I'm concerned. There's a difference between that and actually working hard at shit that matters. I suspect I could be considered not hard working simply because I've been making the same amount of money for the past 6 years but that doesn't mean I'm not hard working in every sense. I'm just not working harder than I need to sustain myself. Just because somebody is not trying to get promoted so they can buy more useless plastic shit doesn't mean they're lazy. I'd really like to see what is meant by this notion of 'hard working'. Yeah, if this post is completely retarded please understand that I've had many beers in the past few hours.

Kind of... But not really. I kind of have slightly low self esteem but I'm not normally at ease. It's just base figures & of course it doesn't apply to everyone. The big thing that I thought was true was that pop fans are not creative, generally of course. |

What about people like me who really do enjoy nearly all forms of music? :<
Not country though.
Fuck country.

It depends on the country for me. Some is real shit, but some of the more alternative stuff my sister listens to is good.

I feel like most people who say they listen to everything except 1 genre, either don't really listen to everything, or are judging the genre based on shitty popular bands and haven't actually taken the time to explore it and find the talent in it.

Me too. I try not to say I hate a genre. Because with a lot of styles I don't like I'm just too lazy to find the good stuff in it.
