aren't a fan of music

Do you just hate fun, like as a rule?


tbh, music and sports were always two things I was just never able to get into either.

As someone who was like that, but only as a child, I strongly recommend you actually look for good examples of these instead of basing everything on the awful, heavily-commercialised versions. Sport and music at the very heart of them are directly appealing to humanity, you just need to find the ones that appeal to you.


It's not based on mass market or commercialized versions of those things, it's just nothing does it for me (more importantly, the issue of popular media, a *lot* of popular media is broadly appealing; there are plenty of films I like that most other people like). I pretended to like things as a kid, but sports bored the hell out of me and music just never did anything for me (other than the occasional show tune). When it comes to listening, I'd rather have talk radio or something else on. Instead of sports, I'd rather watch film, tv, etc.

While in theory there could be a music out there that might appeal to me (since, although I've heard a lot of music over the years, there's likely tons I haven't), there are only a certain number of sports and none of them have really worked. Even MMA I can't watch that long and I only care about the matches themselves.

Likewise, there are a lot of things which do interest me -- and are equally important within human society -- that most people don't care about, such as history.

Why do people who HATE driving insist on getting themselves jobs required to drive in such large numbers people want self driving cars and take away the pleasure of driving from the rest of us?


Because people have relatively little choice in who's hiring, especially when your work is more specialized. The only people who can just work anywhere are guys in low-wage, menial positions.

And, in general, human drivers are more dangerous and less reliable than machines.
