Flaming someone for doing something wildly stupid is one thing . . . flaming them for their musical tastes just because you don't share them is obnoxious junior- high-school peenboy behavior. You don't like Joy Division, New Order, Simple Minds, The Cure, and The Smiths? Fine. Send in your ballot voting for FZ, Cap'n B. and the Dead instead. If you're going to slag people who *do* like them, at least have the balls to give some sort of coherent reason why you don't. (Cute little SPY-Magazine-wannabe formulae don't cut it.) > Why does this guy like Kate Bush? Or does he? Gosh, I don't know. Why not ask him?
