I have a lot of pet peeves. If you don’t believe me, just as my wife who gets to hear every single one of them nearly on a daily basis. They all seem to revolve around idiot, self-absorbed people. You know the type, they think that either they’re God’s gift to the world or the 21st century reincarnation of Christ.
Now, I know that I’m not the smartest guy in the world. I’m also not the most humble. Yes, I admit that. But at least I have the common courtesy to allow people an opinion - especially if it doesn’t affect others.
Let me give you an example of some things that frustrate me to no end.
Say I’m talking to someone and I say “I like Falling Up” (Christian rock band). Now, realistically some should respond with “Yeah they’re awesome” or “Eh, not my cup of tea”. However, I’ve had so many people do things “Oh geez they suck!” indicated that it doesn’t matter if I like them or not, they just suck. It usually follows with an insult indicating that I have no taste or class.
Now, ok - so there are people who don’t like Falling Up. I personally can’t stand most classic rock (Doors, Beatles, Hendrix, etc). Not my style. But do I think they suck? Well, yes to me .. but I appreciate the fact that people like them. More power to them! But don’t say I’m stupid (or someone else) because I don’t agree with you.
Unless it’s a life issue - get over it. Don’t assume that your choices in music are the end all. Your views are not God’s views (unless they’re based on Scripture, then let’s talk).
