Slavery and fascism aren't art forms, so you're shooting yourself in the apple with an orange by trotting those out.
Nickelback may not be good to you or I, but to a lot of people they are. I have no right to tell people who honestly enjoy them that what they are enjoying is, by some invisible empiric law, "shit".
You're an elitist too.
parm:
Nickelback are shit, though.
Jackie Blue:
I perceive Nickelback to be shit.
That does not mean they are shit.
Some people perceive Nickelback to be good.
That does not mean they have shit taste.
It just means they like something I don't.
Why is this so hard to accept.

These people are wrong, just like the people who think Diablo 2 is "not all that good".
Also, people on the internet are really easy to wind up.
Jackie Blue:
I'm not wound up in the slightest. Just being precise.
edit: It's one thing to say "I don't like Diablo 2." It's quite another to say that a game with such lasting appeal to so many people is "not good" because it is provably good to a large number of people.
No matter what you like, a lot of people will think it's shit. No matter what you think is shit, some number (possibly a lot) of people will like it. This is why art is different from science.
