I always thought that was on purpose though. She had good points, but she WAS a sanctimonious little shit. It's been a little while since I saw the show, so this is from memory, but latter seasons I recall did have her slowly growing out of it and/or learning to see differing perspective from others, if not at least better understand what she believes in and why.

It always seemed to me that their fans and the British press think Oasis are more popular and influential than they really are. They were never a big deal to anyone outside the UK and it’s probably even odds that the only song most people know is Wonderwall. That and they have the absolute worst hairstyles ever.

[(Anonymous)]

I thought it was by design. I never watched though because she gave off extreme “not like other girls” vibes. She really seemed to go out of her way to not fit in and then act like she was glad she didn’t fit in but also appearing to desperately want to fit in. Maybe that was just how she came off in the commercials though.

I hate when antagonists just say something racist/sexist/whatever one time and it's never brought up again. It's the laziest way to get the audience to hate them, or to be edgy and get away with it. We get it, they're a bad person, the whole everything else they do makes that obvious. No need to have them drop a slur.

Types and compatibility?

[(Anonymous)]

Has anyone noticed that the concepts of 'having a type' and 'compatibility' in relationships seem to be disappearing?

The whole 'nice guy' thing has been around for a while. Girls always pass over the Nice Guy and date bad guys! The implication seems to be that if they were smart and decent, Girls (who of course have a goal of getting into a relationship with a man) would just look at the first Nice man who shows interest in her, realize that he's Nice and a Man, and hand herself over for sex/marriage/reproduction. But they don't, so they must be dating Bad men.

To me there are so many more things that are important if you want a long term relationship than just 'are they nice or not'. Like:
- do you want children or not, and are they on the same page?
- if you both do want children, who is going to be the primary caretaker? Is one person going to stay home, or are both parents going to work? How will you educate them (Public schools? Private schools? Homeschooling?)? Do you believe in corporal punishment? If your kid is gay/trans, will you accept them or kick them out of the house?
- are you religious or not, and are your religious beliefs or lack thereof compatible with the other person's?
- are your values compatible?
- is your sexuality compatible (for example, does one person have a much higher sex drive than the other? Does one person have a fetish or kink that the other person finds off putting?)

Then there's physical types. I know conventional beauty standards are a thing, but people still have different preferences. But there's always some guy insisting that you could find a Nice man if you didn't expect every man to be 6'11 or whatever.
I had a friend who was really into bearded men, and I can't stand full beards.
I've seen a guy who I would consider ugly basically assuming that women who looked at him were attracted to him, and posting memes where men who looked just like him (big, muscular, bald, bearded) were always the Hot guys that women loved compared to any other type of guy. This guy was not my type at all, but I know some people would find hm physically attractive.

--also a lazy way to make an otherwise sympathetic antagonist disliked by people. I can tell whenever someone says "I liked that villain and thought they were interesting but then they turned out to be a racist so fuck them" because of a single instance that didn't otherwise affect their character at all. Good job falling for shitty manipulative tell-don't-show writing, my guy.

[(Anonymous)]

They DO have shitty hairstyles!

Their top five songs (Champagne Supernova, Don't Look Back In Anger, Wonderwall, etc.) all sound the same. Whiny.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, this was absolutely the point. She wasn't right about everything and sometimes her actions or words led to outcomes she really didn't want.

[(Anonymous)]

They're huge here in Australia. Which is unfortunate since I hate them.

[(Anonymous)]

...clam chowder?

[(Anonymous)]

What kind of small town shows without huge body counts are there these days?

Re: Types and compatibility?

[(Anonymous)]

You're right.

It's only "nice guy" incels, not actually nice guys, who post that sort of thing, but they're LOUD.

There is actually a lid for most kettles. I don't like beards either, but for some, no beard is the dealbreaker. I don't care for tattoos, but some people love them. I would never want to date a "bad boy" or risktaker/criminal type; I like bookish academic types and I don't care if they are muscular; skinny is fine, don't care.

I do think that there are, in a rough sense...leagues, though, and a lot of these guys refuse to accept that going to the gym isn't going to make you handsome and charismatic, just fitter. It's not going to help a very unattractive face. If you look at every couple you know, most people are with someone who's generally about as attractive as they are.
