It's like Breaking Bad. I didn't watch it until like five or six years after all the hype died down. I really enjoyed it, but on my own damned terms.

I’ll never understand this mindset. If something is good, of course people are gonna recommend it. Feels like people are just trying to be contrarian for the sake of it

And i still havent watched breaking bad because each person that goes "OMG YOU HAVE TO SEE IT!" adds another decade to when ill bother.

Its just so annoying, i hate hype.

Oh c'mon, just admit that you're not special and will probably like the thing other people like too. It's ok to humble yourself and join in with the crowd from time to time.

There was a few people pushing a very specific video game at me ages ago and it made me hate the game and never ever want to play it.

Then they did it again with a different game and I realized at least one of those people was just a pushy asshole.

Was OOP also a victim as a child of people telling them to do something popular then when they did it those same people were just like "shut the fuck up you're only doing it because it's popular nobody likes you"?
