Shouldn’t it be the other way around? I was very ashamed of liking Avril Lavigne, today I blast that banger whenever I feel like it 😎

Jaywarbs,

I was watching fireworks last week, and this little girl said, “Avril Lavigne completes this!” and started singing Complicated. She was so excited!

So many artists growing up I was told it was shameful to listen to, but now fuck all of that. Gonna go listen to some avril myself!

Well it used to be slipknot/KoRn/Limp Bizkit etc etc, but now nu metal is cool with all the zoomers, so I’m no longer embarrassed of being a nu metal kid. It’s been pretty cool to reconnect with that stuff without fear! Tbh there are a lot of KoRn tracks that slap, and you can hear their influence in a lot of the underground metal music I listen to. The band chat pile that’s pretty popular right now cites KoRn as an influence. Limp Bizkit is still preeeeeetty fuckin bad though. I fuck with some tracks off of 3 Dollar Bill Y’all$, but so much of it is just corny as hell. System of a Down was always considered dope so they don’t count

KoRn was my favorite band as a teen!

still enjoy their music even though I don’t seek out nu-metal as much as I used to

ARE YOU READY??!!

Hahaha Ive had Blind stuck in my head for like 3 days. I stopped listening to them when I was still in highschool but have dabbled in the past year or two and it’s such a good nostalgia hit

HobbitFoot,

Outside of Limp Bizkit, it isn’t all that bad.

Even with Limp Bizkit, you just have to accept that they are angry brats.

Chat Pile has been my newest obsession! Hope to catch their show sometime soon

I got to see them perform with Lingua Ignota, weirdest combo ever.

andrew,

Loved this stuff back in the day as well. I still do. I got to see Slipknot live at a festival a few years back and they put on one of the more impressive shows I’ve seen.

Nice, good to know they’ve still got it. I got to see them once waaaay back, like 2004 or something for the Subliminal Verses tour I believe.

NuMetal may be cool among my generation, but Limp Bizkit has never been cool. They’re impressive in how uncool they manage to make everything look

Hahaha damn you roasted them so hard. True I guess I don’t see too many people repping them, I just know they played Madison Square Garden with Scowl, though, so I assumed it’s what you whippersnappers are into

ThisIsNecessary,

I just saw Korn live for the first time last year and it was a great show. They played a lot of their old stuff and really made me appreciate some of the early albums again. Don’t care for their new music much, but then again and don’t like most new music. I prefer stuff I already know. Must be an age thing.

RedditRefugeeTom, in what band/song are you kinda ashamed you listening to as a kid?

Simple Plan. They had some popular songs, but looking back, their lyrics were/are cringy. But on the upswing, they had good intention in them.

EtnaAtsume,

Oh NO. I recognized the name even and was like “I know that song…don’t I?”

Ugh. Yeah. I do.

TedZanzibar, in What's something you'd change in men's fashion, given the chance?

Hats. It used to be that people wouldn’t be seen dead outside without a hat but these days, unless you’re a big fan of baseball hats, your options are sorely limited.

As a man with a increasingly shiny dome, I wish this was the case. Until then I will endeavor with my unfashionable Tilley wide brim hat.

gimlithepirate,

Tilley FTW.

I live in the desert, they are common even if unfashionable lol.

Agreed! I wanna try wearing a ivay cap or bowler hat but the problem is, I’m 24 not 84 so I think id get alot of stares.

Ranjeliq, in Is it normal for a person to "feel" less as they get older?
@Ranjeliq@programming.dev avatar

I understand what you mean, I have the same feeling - everything is a but less vivid now.

I am no expert, but my guess that is happening because you have much more experience with the world now. As we age, the number of things that will be completely new to us becomes smaller and smaller. We just have more experience, and even if we haven’t seen/felt/heard something particular, chances are, that your brain still won’t be completely surprised - it will be able to find some experiences that you have which are close to that new thing.

But when you are a kid - there is a whole world of things you didn’t experience at all or didn’t experience enough to understand fully. That’s why everything was so vivid - there was a lot of “truly” new experiences.

AngrilyEatingMuffins, in what band/song are you kinda ashamed you listening to as a kid?

my first CD was N'Sync...

I remember bringing it into school for like a show and tell or something.

My music teacher paused for a bit after it was over and said, "well, they certainly were in sync" lol
