Rudeness is subjective and specific to a particular relationship, though. And it is exacerbated by the fact that presumably most fandom interaction is written via online platforms. How is this friend supposed to know that the OP finds their response so horrible (since, in my experience, this sort of terminology is very common - to the point of meaninglessness - in fandom discourse) if OP doesn't say anything to them? Since we're now telling people how all friends should treat each other, shouldn't one of the pieces of advice be honest communication about hurt feelings?

Get into it, give it a chance, whatever phrase you want to use to indicate that a recommendation is considered or even followed up on -- how many hours of a person's limited time to consume entertainment should they give to something they're not interested in to be a "good" friend? Is one episode enough? A season? Does one draw the line at a 200-page book or a 400-page one? If they put it on their list but don't check it out within a month, have they committed a mortifying offense or should they have at least a year? IMO, it's as rude, if not more, to feel like your friends owe it to you to waste their time on something that holds no interest to them, just because you like it or because you gave one of their recs a chance.
