The Double Standard

ASK ME STUFF!!! http://formspring.me/shalepanther
So, I'm going to keep this vague, to avoid the drama, but, there is something that has to be said.
Tonight, i was talking to this person, and the conversation started with games, and ended in music.
By ending It kinda wend. him calling the Beatles and Greenday "Shit Bands" I said his stuff was noise, and he blocks me, and publicly blasts me on his journal!
Now at first, I was amused at how much of a drama queen he was being. I mean, this guy was one of the most offensive people I've talked to in a while. Faggot this, something is gay, nigger that...But.. Holy shit, i insulted his favorite band! I'm such a dickhead! That was the point it kinda pissed me off!
Now, I'll admit, sayng what i did was a dick thing to do. I am an artist, a Singer.. always have been. I LOVE music. And I respect anybody and everybodie's taste in music. Why? Cause My favorite music is constantly insulted. If you want to dis me over my music, feel free. I can give you more than enough ammo. My tiny mp3 collection includes Kanye West, Miley Cyrus, Michael Jackson, Lady Gaga, The Spice Girls, and Britney Spears. So.. there you go, have at it. Try and give me an insult I haven't heard. But I don't listen to an artist because it is or isn't real music, or because of genre, or because it's cool.. or whatever. I listen to what I like, cause I like it. And pretentious music fucknuts can kiss my ass. In my collection is also some Motzart, Moby, Prince, Elvis, Skindread, Clapton, Brother Ali and Carlos Santana. And that's just what I have in my collection. That's not everything I like.
But, what pissed me off was the Double standard! Can't eat your own cooking? And this has happened a lot, recently. People like that, really piss me off the most.

Also nothing wrong with your taste in music. Everyone has different tastes. Hell, even I like some of the B.Spears covers.
And i agree. Though he says he's not mad cause my tastes are different, it's cause i insulted his favorite bands. Still.
From the story is sounds like he bashed your taste in music then you retaliated in bashing his.. This of course causing the escalation of events and drama.
When things like this happen sometimes it is best to simply walk away. You never know what sets people off now a days and its better to just leave the situation before they really get out of hand.
Elanor Rigby and Nowhere Man are two of my favorite songs.
I liked Green Day more when I was younger, and I'll still sing along to some of their stuff, but they are lower on my list of likes.
On topic, just don't worry about it. Double standards are stupid and you shouldn't pay them any mind.
Bottom line, I don't see how I have hurt YOU. You blasted me on your journal, by name, called me a dickhead, and in my own journal called me scum. I didn't care as you used words like faggot and nigger that could have offended me.. Heck, I tried to make peace with you last night, but, well you blocked me. So I had a friend do it for me. In this journal, you can hide your comments and nobody will ever know or care that i'm talking about you personally.
If you're still mad at me, or still have a hate-on for me, then.. so be it. But I'm a nice person, and if you read the journal, you'd see that I'm respectful of people's taste in music. I respect people who respect me. If you really want to do away with the drama, a simple, honest apology goes a VERY long way with me.
Either way, it's up to you.
I wasn't the one offended, you were. You are more than welcome to express your musical opinions. People insult some of my favorite artists all the time. Friends, roommates, and so on. I grew a thick skin about that a long time ago.
You strike me as a straightforward, and open person, and I can respect that. But the point of this whole shitstorm, and.. well this journal post is. Don't dish it if you can't take it. You said one of my favorite bands was shit, I said one of your favorite bands was noise. Shrug it off and move on. I wasn't insulting you for liking them, And i didn't tell you not to listen to them.
As for deleting journals, I don't like to delete them. Only one person has ever gotten me to delete a journal, and that's because they were a very close friend of mine. Why do you want me to delete this journal? It's my view on situations like this. You aren't the first.. and won't be the last. I did post a fluff post to push this off my main page though, so nobody will really see this journal anymore.
And you really know me so well, after one conversation? Tell me, how have I been such a not nice person?
