Guilty pleasures are bullshit

June 11, 2015

“I don’t believe in guilty pleasures. If you fucking like something, like it. That’s what’s wrong with our generation: that residual punk rock guilt, like, “You’re not supposed to like that. That’s not fucking cool.” Don’t fucking think it’s not cool to like Britney Spears’ “Toxic.” It is cool to like Britney Spears’ “Toxic”! Why the fuck not? Fuck you! That’s who I am, goddamn it! That whole guilty pleasure thing is full of fucking shit.” – Dave Grohl

I love silly harem anime. The Replacements is one of my favorite movies. My iPod is full of peppy pop music, most of which is—you guessed it—in Japanese. I’ve read nearly every Star Wars book up to the end of the Yuuzhan Vong storyline, and I love Scrubs so much I even watched the crappy ninth season. So am I not cool?

Fuck you! That’s who I am! And I don’t feel guilty for a single one of them.
