Okay, better example of stupid things being enjoyable: Some people like My Little Pony. :ghost:

It has characters that are mostly believable if they're not the main character of the episode (in which case they're bumbling morons who can't see through their own pupils), an amazing soundtrack, and purty colors. :V

I watch it mostly because I'm intrigued to see where the writers go with the whole "friendship conquers all" trope. :monkey: And for the soundtrack.

P.S. It's got a good soundtrack.

My point is made. :) Even though some people may think something is stupid, it doesn't mean it's actually stupid, nor does it mean that everyone will think it's stupid. Some people may actually find it fun, or take pleasure in the fact that it's silly and nonsensical. I'm sure you've met plenty of people that think MLP is garbage, but that doesn't make it so, or keep you from enjoying it. :)

Yeah, I got your point. :ghost:

I have. Oddly, it's not based on disapproval of the plot, characters, visuals, soundtrack, or anything else. They didn't even bother analyzing it based on their personal preferences. Rather, their dislike has invariably stemmed from the social stigma attached to the show. It's very very "uncool" to be a MLP fan in the majority of circles, it seems. :problem:

Of course. It goes against the standard "macho/manly" traditions of society. "Pink is a girl color" "only girls carry purses" "guys never cry" etc. Naturally, it's shunned. Personally, I gave it a shot and just couldn't really get into it after a few episodes. It just... wasn't for me. :eh: I just didn't find it interesting.

Only clicked the first link, but I'm pretty sure that doesn't qualify as manly in the same way that yaoi characters don't classify as straight. :ghost:

Buff!Rarity's tea drinking method is probably one of the manliest things possible, what are you on about :ghost:

I wonder if I could write one of those autoreplacement plugins for my web browser to replace "the game" with something less "the game"-ey. :ghost:
Although I must be careful to replace it with something that will not remind me of "the game." :think:
