I am. I think she's great.

And You?

Well stated.  +1

@wesheadley 

Thanks for the "new" music suggestions.  I've created an "AudioGon" playlist on Tidal and added these.  Hopefully, something there will resemble something like Carol King, Supertramp, and America tossed into a blender?

Personally, I think if somebody likes it, it's good, even if it's just good for that one person. Can't negate somebody else's experience.... 

@tylermunns look, I'm not arguing that we as a society are attracted by the superficial and hollow (and yes, I do lisyen to swift and have seen a few shows), but again, labeling her fans as vapid is snobbery at its finest. 

 

Are you without fault? Do you have no superficial and shallow interests? If not, you must be a total bore to hang out with. 

@simao I said the music was vapid. If you want to take that personally and take it as though I'm saying YOU are vapid, I have no control over that, that's on you.

I watch "Farting Preacher" videos on YouTube very often.  
Is that "shallow" enough for you?

It seems odd to me that you would describe as "boring" the hypothetical person who eschews superficial and shallow things (presumably in favor of exciting/interesting/smart things). I find stupid, trite, cliche-mongering things to be, at best, boring. At worst, a punishing experience.  

Different strokes, I guess.
