Nice to know that mid-lockdown I can still have the experience of an overconfident man I don‘t know bellowing his opinions in my ear. I was hoping for insightful cultural criticism and got purple prose, a lot of ‘ooh aren‘t I clever‘ and a 10 page essay on why Lady Gaga isn‘t real music. The fact it has good goodreads reviews genuinely confuses me.

alisonrose I‘m sure TONS of Gaga‘s fans read that essay and went WAIT THIS RANDOM MAN IS RIGHT AND I HAVE BEEN WRONG IN MY ENJOYMENT ALL THIS TIME!!!!!!!!!! 4y
Emilymdxn @alisonrose hahahahaha. Imagine listening to music, not enjoying it, and thinking ‘the world needs to know my reasons for this‘ 4y
alisonrose @Emilymdxn BEHOLD! A MAN HAS ARRIVED TO SHARE HIS MANLY VIEW! 4y
