    None!

    There should be no guilty pleasures in music. Especially dating. It’s much more attractive to have a wide range of tastes and be comfortable with what you like.

    Doesn’t exist. I tell them what I like. If they can’t handle the truth then it wouldn’t work anyway.

    I also don’t have guilty pleasures. I enjoy things.

    Why isn’t it just common practice jmto just use “they” instead the entirely cumbersome “he/her”?

    Like it’s just so much easier to type out and say, and it’s just better to use regardless.

      Love how the top comment doesn’t even answer the question. But TIL, I guess. If I had known this option existed, I probably would have used it. I’m going to play the “not a native english speaker”-card on this one.

      Not only is it more readable and aesthetically-pleasing, singular “they” is more inclusive of people outside the gender binary!

      The fun part is that you’ll have people complaining about it either way!

        My friend forgot their umbrella at the office.

        They nervously answered the phone.

        They’re a lazy motherfucker.

        I gave my friend a hug and wished them a speedy recovery.

        Any of those sound unusual, or like they’re referring to more than one person?

        It doesn’t though. They has been used for singular without knowing the gender for a long time.

    So I put my hands up. They’re playin’ my song, the butterflies fly away. I’m noddin’ my head like, yeah. Movin’ my hips like, yeah. I got my hands up, they’re playin’ my song. They know I’m gonna be okay. Yeah, it’s a party in the U.S.A. Yeah, it’s a party in the U.S.A.

      I bought a Front242 CD from a record shop once, got home to find out the staff had grabbed Steely Dan CD an put that in the case accidentally. (The days before tamper proof display adapters, where the media was stored behind the counter)

    Sonic the Hedgehog soundtracks, specifically the songs with vocals. Haven’t kept up with the series in a while but my playlist has songs from everything from Sonic CD to Sonic and the Black Knight. I’m sure some of it is actually good music and some I only like because it reminds me of Sonic.

    I guess it’ll take a few more dates before I show her What I’m Made of…

      If I have to hate a reasonably decent pop rock band to earn points I shouldn’t even be on the date.

        I don’t have a baseline when it comes to pop songs. Also, I have never been on a date anyways. So, it’s all good.

      I’m personally not a fan of most of their albums, but I have to say that put on a great live show. They started as a cover band and last I saw them, they did a bunch of covers of 70-80s rock, all of which were very well done.
