At Thanksgiving and Christmas, I lie and say that I've watched movies and shows that I haven't because I hate the way my cousin tries to convince me that I absolutely have to see them. I think I bullshit my way through the conversation pretty well, but it does make me feel like a coward.

A friend in college was obsessed with the Mortal Instruments books and begged me to read them. She let me borrow her copy of the series. I read detailed summaries of each book to discuss with her because I hated them so much. 😭

I don't think it's cowardice. Seems like a perfectly reasonable way to manage an annoying relative who would otherwise pester you about stuff and ruin your peace.

Not cowardice, because it is of absolutely no consequence. Save your brain cells for important issues.

I am petty enough that the more people either tell me I have to check out A Thing or even pull the "GASP! You haven't seen the thing/liked the thing?" the less I am willing to give it a try.

Which is why it took me until I was 29 to watch the original Star Wars movies. And also why I will never finish Psychonauts. Or play any of the other Yoko Taro games (I am a NieR: Automata hater.) Or play FF14 or, well, you get the gist.

I do something similar

(Anonymous) 2025-12-04 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
I don't usually lie and say I've seen them but I do lie and say things like "it's on my list" and "I can't wait to get a chance to watch them" knowing full well there is only like a 1% chance I'll get around to watching them. I like to tack on a "no spoilers!" to usher along the end of the conversation as a bonus.

I had a friend like this. She kept insisting I watch/read stuff she KNEW I hated the genre of because she was one of the types to think if SHE liked something, it was objectively great and everyone had to like them. I never indulged her even for show becuase that would have only encouraged her to keep doing it because she thought she'd been successful in converting me.
I don't really have any contact with her anymore (though not just because of this). I do understand this isn't really an easy option with family members.

I've done it all. Pretended to watch something I don't because I don't want to be pitched why I need to watch it. Lied that it's on my To Watch list. Lied that I'd never heard of the thing and respond with a hearty, "I'll have to watch it one day!"

Lately, my thing has been to be honest. I don't watch a lot of fictional media because my brain feels fried most times trying to watch that stuff. It makes me boring but I already feel bad that I can't focus on a show/movie so I'd rather be honest

The truth approach makes me feel like people actively avoid talking to me afterwards. Maybe I'm being sensitive because it hurts my feelings. But at the same time, saved myself from listening to someone pitch a show/movie I have no interest in.

Hrmmm....she was tough, yes, and did great fighting for her life, but I just can't be past her being dumb enough to actually go into an unmapped cave and TELL NO ONE AT ALL. Just...c'mon.

I'm really looking forward to Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.

(Although I can understand where the Snyderbros are coming from on being salty that canon didn't go the way they wanted it to, they've been so awful about Superman that I'm hoping the Supergirl movie is both very popular and pisses them off even more.)

Taylor Swift comes across as a petty mean girl to me. There's literally the song "Mean," written because a music critic dared to have an opinion about her. There's the way she won't let go of the Kim/Kanye feud, to the point of capitalizing KIM in a song title on an album in 2024. (Even though Kanye was the one who was really vile, she seems angrier at Kim - or perhaps she is afraid of poking the bear that is Kanye West?) There's the huge overreaction to Charli XCX, who wrote a song that referenced Taylor but was more about Charli's own insecurities. There's the way she put her music on streaming the day Katy Perry was releasing a new album. The petty, childish, mean girl tactics come across as very high school, teenage to me, and that's not flattering behavior from an adult.

I love Gowron's arc throughout Star Trek. We see him first in TNG as an idealistic outside, appalled by the insider corruption of the high council, and we see him rise as a bold new leader, sometimes inexperienced and outflanked, through being an experienced politician, becoming a true leader of his people, then his fall as the paranoia of power and the stress of war takes its toll, and finally his death as tragedy when he can no longer control his hubris by the end of DS9.

It is a complete character arc. It is brilliant. It makes me want a Star Trek:Klingons show, but focused on the Klingon politics.

I love to listen to stereotypical Vietnam-era rock music, and pretend I am a Space Marine, dropping from a Space Chopper onto Space Vietnam, and firing my Space Gun against the Space Trees.

I'm not dense enough IRL to be racist, glorify military, want to join, or ever support wars of invasion. I'm well aware real-life Vietnam was an utter hell for absolutely anyone that amounted for a painful chapter of history, and I am adamant in preferring to only enjoy fictional wars.

I just like pretending I am part of those fictional wars, and I haven't gotten to play TTRPGs that scratch that itch. Reason I'm addicted to Helldivers right now.

Have you made any new discoveries recently? Anything that you didn't know before that has peaked your interest?
