I don't understand the attraction
Smaug says: Ricky Gervais. Lesbian pr0n. Going into a crowded bar, purely because it's crowded. All these things seem to be popular with everybody else, but I just can't work out why. What leaves you cold just as much as it turns everyone else on?

I don't understand...
Why is everyone so obsessed with these little things?
Ok, I can rant with the best of them, I spend at least half of my waking hours whinging about something or another, don't get me wrong.
But what I don't understand is that a lot of people on here seem to be totally predjudiced and blinkered to a lot of things. A lot of people are saying "If you do xxx, you are a chav/stupid/a twat etc.", with no exceptions.
So, even if I'm a nice, well rounded, intelligent person who helps orphans on my days off and saves lickle bunnies by night - if I occasionally eat a crispy pancake, read a shit magazine, express a dislike for a certain type of food or laugh at the wrong person, I'm a chav and a twat?
(Not that this is ACTUALLY what I'm like, but you get the idea)
What intrigues me even more is that the people posting stuff like this also say how much they hate other forms of discrimination.
Just saying.

I have a theory
It goes like this;
Everyone has a certain number of things they like, be it hobbies, music, food tastes, whatever.
Some people can appreciate WHY they like these things, and can thus appreciate why other people differ in their interests.
However there is a group of people who aren't completely at ease with their choice. Maybe they didn't weigh all the pro's and con's before deciding on a type of car, maybe they only like a certain type of music because of peer pressure/it's what they first heard.
I don't believe they are often even aware that their lifestyle choices aren't perfect. I do believe that they will snipe at anything else though to try to reaffirm that what they do is the best/correct.
Insecurities. They'll deny it because they won't look inwards enough to see it's true.
Either that or they're just twats.
