What kind of music can you just not stand to listen to?

Twangy, pandering, generic, drivel that passes for popular country music. The kind that features singers singing words that glorify anti-intellectualism and talk about "good ol' boys" and equate "simplicity" with "honesty," and pronounce those words improperly. The kind of country without soul, the kind of country you hear on the radio blaring out of pickup trucks with those despicable decals of Bill Watterson's Calvin character peeing on something. The kind of country music that plays at bars and makes girls in low-cut shirts and pink cowboy hats go nuts. I absolutely can not stand it.

Ask me anything
