I don’t get the adoration
I've gone through most of my adult life denying his talent (much like The Beagles) but that's just posturing really. He wrote some incredible songs, his skill was to take the bits he liked from artists on the bleeding edge and make them palatable for the masses.
He wrote killer rock'n'roll tunes but all he wanted was to be big on Broadway!!

Oh he could write some good songs..no doubt. Most top acts have about 3 really good songs he had 5-6 but at the same time there’s a total lack of humanity in his work

Add old as fuck musicians to my previous hate of middle aged musicians moaning about modern music.

The sound of children shrieking with joy when they're playing

Torturous. I’m certain we weren’t allowed to scream the way kids do these days. More than once I’ve thought something horrendous had happened in the park across the street, to discover it’s a 7 year old playing.

Party bags at kids parties. Thanks guys, but they really don’t need any more sugar or plastic tat.

My only pro is that they’re sometimes the only way we can leave happily. And she usually forgets about it so we get to eat the contents after she’s asleep

Sometimes you get cool stuff, but the sweets really bug me.
Tbf we're pretty militant about what sweets aren't allowed, but still. I do love the crafty things. We got a mould set with safety pins and magnets.

Anyway.
I fucking hate hip hop skits. Just generally, but really specificly at the beginning and end of tracks. Fuck off! I want to listen to the next song, not your weird fucking audio role play fantasy.
I've always found the intersection between US rappers and Public School's House Feasts really fucking weird in this regard. I guess they also share misogyny. In fact they probably share loads of other stuff too but I cba to compare and contrast.
I just wish Spotify would put some sort of toggle setting on it.

I tend to agree, but the Broke Phi Broke Skits 1-4 on Kanye West Late Registration are great!

I hate when they’re at the start of a song and not on a separate track. It’s not to bad when they’re at the end you you simply skip to next. The late 90s sex scene ones are the worst.

Had this exact discussion with a friend and created this rogue's gallery a while back:

Didn't you have a big showdown with the parents of luffguss, not so long ago? Just bants on that.

• #23523
I think there is a big difference between questioning some peoples attitudes towards their roles as parents and disliking the noise children make.

Next you'll be telling me you like dogs.

Fuckings dogs and fucking dog owners. I was out in the peaks with my kids today, had found a lovely beetle walking across a relatively high traffic area. Decided that I would move it for safety. Some fucking squash faced little prick of a dog decided that me kneeling down was a prompt for it to come over and jump up at me and start yapping and growling. Completely ineffectual owner giving it small with a very casual “come here mitzy” but no actual, you know, authority or control or results. And no apology either. Get your cunt animal away from me ffs. And if your little shit companion does give me grief then at least have the decency to apologise.
Further along the path and some little arsehole terrier is running around and barking at a horse and rider, obviously putting the fear into the horse. At least the owner had the decency to apologise, but FFS if you can’t control your pet then don’t let them off the lead. You’re literally endangering people with your inability to be responsible.
An hour later and I’m enjoying my pub lunch to a chorus of piercing barks because none of these arseholes have trained their cunt animals to keep their fucking yaps shut.
I used to like dogs but I’m increasingly of the mind that they should be banned.
Bowie produce a good double album's worth of decent songs. The trouble was he surrounded it by many album's worth of utter filler.
Let's Dance is easily his best album, and that's entirely because Nile Rodgers produced it.
