Ex. Not for me but for someone…
Not judging at all… but a thought did occur to me today: For each and every pop culture icon or ritual that I loathe there’s someone (or more accurately millions of some-ones) who loves them or it. I’m almost 100% sure that at some point in my life I was that person, until I got too cool for the school. Oh it’s not that it’s an all or nothing proposition for me… there are a few things in the current zeitgeist that I enjoy. I have to temper those likes for perspective though, because what’s in the current convo really isn’t for me. It’s for someone, else.
