I wish more people would just enjoy things that are objectively terrible. Like how I enjoy my Nickelback CD's. Yes they're douches but I like shitty post-grunge.

I always tell my friends "Do not kill the part of you that is cringe. Kill the part that cringes"
The specific term you’re looking for is
Not giving a Fuck.
Rolling away in my Heelys
I stopped giving a fuck way back when the choice was between that and killing myself.
That was the only way my nerdy girl self could live beyond 12 years old in the early 80s.
Went on to computer programming and, eventually, design.
Art can be hot fucking garbage in ways that are interesting and worth exploring
Sonichu comes to mind immediately
Oh gosh, lol
Sonichu has so much... Let's say intertextual baggage, that it, more than a lot of art, is inseparable from the, uh...art and art criticism, that it helped spawn.
Like, more than Sonichu itself, I think the 100 part Chris-chan documentary is more interesting as bad art. It comes out of this incredibly toxic online millieu of harassment and stalking, that ends up saying more about the community that birthed it, then it does about its nominal subject
The whole thing is wild. I went down a rabbit hole of sonichu and chris-chan for a solid two days when I found out about him.
Her*, (unless there's a Chris-chan detransition arc that I'm unaware of) but yeah it's a wild and honestly pretty sad story. Chris-chsn is obviously someone who needs a lot of help, but instead was serially harassed by the internet's weirdest little freaks
I had so much dolphin shit as a teenager
Did you have Ecco the Dolphin?
No, my parents believed video games were evil :(
Mine only thought games with guns were evil. Now I'm playing Resident Evil Requiem and I'm inventing new cuss words. You proud of me mom and dad?
What my girl tells me after sex
White Chicks (2004)
Most Jason Statham movies. Don't question the details just enjoy.
RWBY lol
Me and BSB/N'SYNC. 🤷
Jurassic World
What can I say? They made me root for the T. rex and raptors. How can I not enjoy that?
I'm surprised I'm not seeing anyone list StarWars.
Star Wars is responsible for 2 5/8 good movies.
Which of the first 6 are you leaving out because I think they’re all good. Episode 1 is a bit goofy but it’s still a good movie, if anything for the memes alone
1,2,3 and some of 6
Brother you’re just a hater 😂 2-5 are good movies. 1 is a great meme movie and 6 is ok, not bad by any means.
On rewatch I've found running subtitles makes Jar Jar 40% more intelligent. It also frames the galaxy as a more fun happy place. Until of course the phantom menace wins...
Me playing Pokemon
Why do people think this art is garbage?
Is it because it's ai?
Or because it was made by a wealthy trust fund woman high on cocaine?
Or because it's ai stolen from the efforts of a wealthy trust fund woman who made it when she was high on cocaine?
Been playing through the first Kingdom hearts game, God damn was is designed horribly but I've been having a lot of fun with my friend at least.
Crimson Desert.
I have never played a game like this. So much good, but the bad is so bad.
...is this a safe space for me to admit that sometimes I think objectively bad AI slop loops back around to hilarity?
I remember spamwatching those fake AGT transformation videos bc I liked the uncanny shocked faces and the transformations always looked so terrible lmao. Italian brainrot was funny too. I also remember this trend of AI kittens and babies doing this revving motorcycle dance trend which I thought was hilarious bc they aren't supposed to move like that
If AI content were more honest about itself, i.e. that you could tell at glance which was what, it wouldn't bother me nearly as much as it does. Most of the destructive power AI has is because it's so hard to tell.
There was some charm to Dall-e or whatever, even if it was a bad omen.
Before slop started ruining our life, I quite liked the absurdity of "we made ai watch 1000 hours of whatever and it wrote whatever" or people recreating "ai generated recipes".
Only later I realised that I actually liked it because it were people doing comedy, and ai has nothing to do with it. The same level of absurdity but actually generated doesn't do anything for me
