Worst human characteristics
Envy
Petulance
Self loathing
Narrow mindedness
Unreliability
These are the worst you can come up with? Jeez.. I know I am guilty of 4/5, probably 5/5. I would even go as far and say that every person in the world is guilty of narrow mindedness and envy at one point in their lifes.

1. Being in your 20s
These are usually things that make me feel happy, with the exception of porn and social media, which if anything just leave me feel drained (
)
I wonder now: Do you watch sad films / listen to sad music because you like feeling sad? Or do you resonate with the person creating it? Personally I think melancholy is the most beautiful of emotions so I revel in it whenever possible. Self-loathing can be very cathartic at times, but can also be the opposite.
Honestly, existential dread is something that hasn't hit me in a long time, if anything what bothers me most in life is that my ambition soars high while my willpower does not keep up. But I would suppose everyone has that feeling, some stronger and some weaker. After all, if we could all just "go out and DO IT" then there would not be a billion dollar industry for self-help books
Its funny how the same things manage to evoke opposing feelings in people. Sometimes I wonder if I dont "really enjoy" music like low or authors like pessoa, because enjoying their art makes me feel happy. My reaction seems inappropriate somehow.
However there is some music I can just be sad to. I call this kind of genre breakup-core. Band name is as fitting as it gets.
Personal favorite: 2. You Won't Meet A Girl Sat In Your Room Listening To Music (But Some Songs Can Still Give You Butterflies)
The thing most deeper fans of rap don't understand: a Tribe Called Quest is some of the least musicallly accessible in the genre.
Dude, my 6 year old cousins vibe out to "Push it Along" or "Bonita Applebum". In terms of accessibility I would say almost everyone can enjoy the instrumentals for what they are.
This however has little to do with contrarians patting themselves on the back for not liking something, which is just childish posturing that I only normally see in 15-year old metal and classic rock fans
