Being elitist.
Why am I here again? Two days in a row! Hurrah LJ, there's just really something with you huh.
Nevertheless, I'm going to talk about Taylor Swift, and my burning distaste for our television here at home. Or the mp3-playing cellphones of my uncle's people.
See, I was never a hater. Well if you count that one period when I got super annoyed with my Facebook contacts just because all they talked about were of a bunch of Korean people I don't know and are just described as "hot" all the freaking time, then I guess I was. Or am. Believe me though, I have a fair share of Korean stuff I like too. Prime example? Joo Ji Hoo. I even remember his name! xD Also, Princess Hours, and nori! I've taken a liking to Park Yong Ha too, but then again he's dead now. And I just googled "korean actor suicide" for his name.
My problem these days, is certainly of a different kind. A far more serious one. For this, it's really just, you know, complete disinterest.
Whenever I hear songs from America, I shut my ears off. Or walk away, more like it. Some times I stay for a bit, trying, enduring, to listen and understand why everyone likes that song that has "baby" in it that it's being played for forever in every possible medium. Oh, every song has "baby" in it, yeah. So then I always lose and give up.
Then, the television. I can't seem to like anything on anymore. I really tried with the new drama starring John Lloyd Cruz, I really did. But it was such a Twilight rip-off *even cheaper and more terrible if that's even possible* that eventually ignoring its existence was inevitable.
What I can still watch, really, is the news. Just the news. And I irk away when the entertainment segment is up next.
This could really be just a matter of differing tastes and I'm blowing it all out of proportion. And yet, I feel sadness..
.. why does everyone like those sort of crap? Can't they realize that they're all just songs about heartbreak and getting one and having a blast, and more heartbreak, repeat a gazillion times!?
Are we still not free from those that colonized us from way back?
.. then it dawned on me. I like Japanese stuff.
