Do you have any friends who make fun of your different taste in things?

I understand that things like this are pretty common, but i'm talking about the ones who just won't let it go and aren't afraid to let you know that what you like is complete garbage to them.

Like just recently when I purchased a Linkin Park cd, he just gave me a blank stare and asked me if I was serious, and then he just shook his head and said I was becoming a sell out. He listens to nothing but rap, let me add.

No, because my friends know I have awesome taste and would look like enormous fools if they criticised it.

Er, well, besides the general insults me and my friends throw at eachother, no, there isnt anything nobody will let go of. Sounds like your friend is an ass though, imo.

Not really, when we insult each other we're just messing around. It never gets too nasty.

Yeah. My friends do that all the time. But we're called individuals for a reason.
I just shrug it off and laugh with them.
Safely knowing in my mind that I'll one day kill them all :)

No I don't have any friends called andy. OHOHOHOH HOW WITTY AM I?

But seriously so what? just becuase your friends doesn't mean you have to like exactly the same things. I have friends like that but I respect that they don't like the music I listen to and them that I turn my nose up at what they like. we have some common songs and artists that we like so we focus on them rather than what we disagree on. Just ignore them and make a few jokes about it yourself.

Just in a joking around manner. For myself and my friends it is just joking around. If it were not joking they would not be my friends. I don't have time to bother with people who seriously get hung up on what I buy or do.

Not really friends, but family members. I can't listen to blues or classical around them because they start acting as if I was gay or something. (I'm not) So I just listen to some Metal, turn it up as loud as I can and annoy the hell out of them. My friends don't care what I listen to.

My other cousin keeps acting like I don't listen to rap anymore and tells me that I've "changed" everytime I listen to rock.

Yes, but it's never anything I'm that passionate about. As many have mentioned music, none of my friends would go much further than that. I'm sure it's incredibly hard to find even a small group of people that like every little thing I do...in fact, that'd creep me out.

It's not just music, it's my other firends, movies, and the type of girls I like as well.

I know he isn't joking around as well since i've known him for 10 years now.

For types of girls.. You like what you like, am I right? If they think your tastes are wierd tell them to bug off because if you like what you see not what they see thats all that matters.

They do sometimes, but they don't push it far enough to the point where they get me frustrated.
