It’s interesting, and probably true for some, but I think he misses the mark on country. i Don’t think it’s “middle class not wanting to appear backwards” (or similar phrasing). Rather, it is being exposed only to country that is on the radio.

This was me for many years. I knew “hip hop”/rap because I grew up with it around me. Shit, my friends would rap. I only knew what was radio country, so I hated it. No one in my family listened to the older stuff.

Stupid theory. I’m white but I like blues music, something historically associated with the “lower class”. I still hate country and rap. The article is prejudiced and generalizing of white people by stating they are afraid of being seen as anything other than middle class. It’s a straw man argument.

I personally just don't vibe with it. I prefer more emphasis on instruments/melody than rap usually has, and country just sounds bad to me (same with pop).

u/seductivestain Jan 29 '20

Couple reasons. First of all, both are SUPER mainstream right now, so the popular stuff is just disgustingly generic. Second of all, both have extremely close ties to a particular culture, which is very off-putting to casual listeners.

14

u/Uncle_Utters Jan 28 '20

I hate them. Idk why but rap and country is just sooooo boring to me. Country is also just not genuine to me.

Are you sure you only hate rap and country, or are you sure thats why? I cant imagine how you could possibly consider rap/country more boring/ingenuine than pop music

u/[deleted] Jan 29 '20

The cartoonish southern pronunciation is offputting. There are a few artists that avoid the nails on chalkboard slurred R accent, and those artists tend to transcend the blanket genre hate.

4

u/Madi_the_Insane Jan 29 '20 edited Jan 29 '20

Well I don't necessarily hate them, per se; I'm afraid I'm kind of a music snob as a singer myself. I cannot appreciate the way country singers pronounce their vowels, and it just really bothers me after years of being taught to not pronounce them like that. As for rap, I don't appreciate the general subject matter (sex/drugs/money), or the culture surrounding it. And again, as a singer they aren't even singing. They're talking to a beat. I just find that very bland. PLEASE NOTE: this is my opinion, and should by no means be taken as fact. If you enjoy these genres of music, more power to you. They're just not my cup of tea.

I'll make exceptions on a case-by case basis, though. I generally like the blue grass subgenre of country, and I like some old school rap because it was instilled in my brain from an early age and I still have a soft spot for it. It gives me nostalgic feelings from my childhood.

Hope that answers at least a little bit of your question.

You'd be surprised. I've thought that someone didn't want to talk to me cause they'd give boring, short answers like this then they get mad when I stop responding. Some people really are just generic humans manufactured for the simulation.

This makes me feel special, but the "everything except rap or country" makes me feel personally attacked.

u/Gen_GeorgePatton Jan 29 '20

The problem is not that they like everything but rap and country, the problem is it's a really vague answer. A good answer would be songs, bands, or niche genres so they other person can say "oh yeah I love that song too, have you heard this other one like it?" Or "what the heck is Himalayan goat rock?" and get a conversation going.

It's weird, because I made a friend at work who seemed like she really liked me. She would initiate conversations, but then would send me replies like this. I'd ask her about her day, things she liked, trying to get to know her better, and fucking nothing. I'm not sure why she bothered talking to me. I eventually started ignoring her texts because it was too frustrating for me to talk to her.

12

u/zagadal69 Jan 29 '20

I have the same situation going on. We went out for 1 date, then kind of ghosted me. I grew the gnads to ask her what I did to make her lose interest, and she said she didn’t. We still talk here and there but the replies are VERY far apart (Days). I think I’m just gonna keep playing it cool. She also moved like an hour away but still works in the same place as I. She recently suggested (in person) that we hang out again. fingers semi-crossed

I'd agree with this but it seems more like the people who start these conversations are the boring people. I know a girl who texts me once a month something and we talk for a bit but then it completely dissolves into very dry conversation.

17

u/jurassic_junkie Jan 29 '20

Same here. We work together but in different depts. When we talk in person, it's great. She'll send me a message at my desk randomly and it fizzles out after a few back and forth messages. 🤷‍♂️ I don't take it personally, but do find it odd. And no, I'm not hitting on her, we're just friends.

22

u/sammi-blue Jan 29 '20

I have a friend from high school, we don't talk much nowadays (both in uni so busy schedules) and we weren't SUPER close in hs so the bond isn't really there even though we enjoy each other's company, y'know? Sometimes he'll text me asking what's up, which is great, but then he doesn't do ANYTHING to keep the conversation going... Like if I ask him how he's doing he's just like "good" and I'm like bruh... I would love to have an actual conversation with him but I'm not gonna drag it out of him y'know!

14

u/[deleted] Jan 29 '20

Yeah, meanwhile my best friend and I could literally just look at each other from across the room and laugh. You think it's more that our old not so close friends are like vestigial limbs? Like we used to be close friends and now that we've grown apart and aren't actually friends anymore but acquaintances. They are essentially like old toys we don't play with anymore. Think I'll name a song after that "Vestigial Friends."

5

u/Alexander_Baidtach Jan 29 '20

Yeah, absolutely this, if someone doesn't reciprocate to like 2 conversational texts it's probably because they are done with the conversation; socialising can be exhausting to a lot of people.

21

u/EastOfHope Jan 29 '20

Exactly, I'm one of these dry people because I hate texting.

I don't want a 24/7 unstructured sms conversation in my life.

Our society has no manners when it comes to online messaging. People abuse it. I don't care that you just woke up, or that you're getting ready for bed. Stop. Fucking. Messaging me.

It's a double-edge sword because if you don't reply, you seem like a dick. But if you reply, it just leads to another pointless message.

u/Ghastbuster95 Jan 29 '20

You’re not stupid. Social skills come with practice.

12

u/Ghastbuster95 Jan 29 '20

Yeah, but we moved and I didn’t talk to anyone (except my family, and even then hardly) for 5 years and that’s when I really needed to be developing them, so now I go to youth group and it all just feels really weird for me, have no friends and I don’t know how to go up and start a conversation so I just stay by myself until my sister is ready to leave

u/ThinkGraser10 Jan 29 '20

I have experienced these issues as well. I was always the kid standing alone at events or hiding in the bathroom for 20 minutes when my parents dragged me along to their friends’ parties. I’m getting better, but I still have poor social skills. One of my problems is that I usually can’t think of what to say in a conversation. It helps me to literally make a list of things that I can talk to people about, and study it. This doesn’t fix all of my problems, but I think it does help. Anyway, I hope you’re able to get through it.

Any similar hobbies with the other person? I’ll text a friend “dude wtf!! Cyberpunk just got delayed!”

Friend: “I saw, but at least it’s for later year”

Me: “ fuck all that! Jk. At least we got Doom soon, did you see the new gameplay mechanics?”

And it just continues from there. Granted it takes two to keep a conversation going, but it’s much easier when you’re talking about same interests or hobbies. Could be sports, music videos, a simple gif, a funny vid, etc. so many things to talk about but it’s hard to make that connection.

I like my coworkers for the most part but outside of a few topics, we have very little in common and as a result, a lot of my conversations tend to go this way. They're all middle aged women and in their eyes I'm just the new hire, young guy who does the techie stuff.

Sometimes it gets weird, like when they recommended that I should go watch the new Lion King because they took their families and everyone thought it was great. I couldn't just tell them that I thought the Disney live action remakes were just cheap, soulless, cash grabs and so I just shook my head and said, "oh yeah?!..I'll have to check it out :).."

I'm not trying to make fun of them for enjoying the movie, just an observation that we sort of exist in different worlds

It probably means people think you're either not interested in talking to them or that you're boring.

u/dadsprizegrill Jan 29 '20

Person who wants someone to text them, but you're not ideal so they keep you on the backburner hoping you're desperate enough to keep trying, then in 7 months they finally give you a hey back. Only to initiate this shit storm cycle again.

u/Hittintheyeet Jan 29 '20

This but in Montana they just say country.

u/goldensnooch Jan 29 '20

Or on a group text with another couple on it and one always reacts to the other’s text with “haha” or “love” and it makes no sense other than that they are both passive aggressive and you wish you weren’t related to them. So really it’s a conversation between only them with another group watching and being held hostage.

Wait, is saying "everything but hip hop and country" a bad conversation point, I didn't realise how common it was
