Metal. A lot of people kinda freak out when they hear you like metal of any kind. And not in a good way.

Donk is a 2nd or 3rd date kind of genre.

Some Baby Metal songs.

Demi Lovato's first album, Don't Forget. It absolutely slaps but it's difficult for me to talk about it.

Probably the cursed remixes on YouTube, they don't need to know how much of a banger beatswapped uptown funk is.

...every once in awhile i listen to top fourty countdowns from the mid-eighties, not necessarily because i enjoy the music, but because i'm mesmerised by the time-warp effect of revisiting period radio programs...

...i disliked a lot of the music then but i appreciated the shared cultural experience of legitimately popular broadcast media, and retrospectively it's a window into a world which no longer exists...

New Age. Lot of Jonn Serrie.

I don't know how she woud react to the entire ratchet & clank OST so I probably wouldn't show her this.

Snake River Conspiracy

Nah, I'm gonna own it because if they don't like KiNG MALA then they probably won't like being with me

My Chemical Romance โ€” the first two albums at least, wasn't a fan of "Black Parade"

Why isn't it just common practice to just use "they" instead the entirely cumbersome "he/her"?

Like it's just so much easier to type out and say, and it's just better to use regardless.

Love how the top comment doesn't even answer the question. But TIL, I guess. If I had known this option existed, I probably would have used it. I'm going to play the "not a native english speaker"-card on this one.

The fun part is that you'll have people complaining about it either way!

[โ€“] xmunk@sh.itjust.works 28 points 1 week ago

Yea, but the people who complain about "they" are assholes so we can safely ignore them.

Not only is it more readable and aesthetically-pleasing, singular "they" is more inclusive of people outside the gender binary!
