  1. After reading these replies, it turns out that this is way more common than I realized. Yeah, there's the few who said that it's a dumb thing to do, but there's a significant group here who said that they end up disliking something simply because someone they don't like happens to like or love it. Perhaps maybe it's a thing of "I don't like him, so he's wrong about everything, so everything he likes must automatically be terrible, including something I once loved."

     

    Well, I tend to do this almost every minute of the day. It's gotten to the point where I'll check social media and such to see what else they like and dislike, and then sort my interests and such based on these. Either that, or have the mindset to abandon EVERYTHING I once loved and then create stuff myself.

     

    Things I now hate because of other people:

     

    Banjo-Kazooie

    The Sonic Franchise

    Modding

    Linkin Park

    Alice in Chains

    Practically any popular video game

    Any opinions they have

     

    That's the tip of the iceberg. Heck, I'd go as far to say that I'd change my ORIENTATION to have less in common with these people.

  2. Well, I'm not necessarily talking about hating something simply because other people like it. I'm talking about disliking things that are enjoyed by people you personally don't like. Let's say there's someone you got in a fight with or something, and you both hate each other. Then you find out that they like something that you do, and you dislike it so you have less association with that person. It's alright if someone I'm alright with enjoys something I also enjoy. That's perfectly fine. It's enemies that I hate having the same interests I do, mainly because I want to have less in common with them. I can't even watch Markiplier or listen to Alice in Chains because of this reason. :P

  3. Actually, my viewpoints have changed on the franchise. There's only two or three games that I truly enjoy. That is, Sonic Unleashed HD and Sonic '06. The rest of them? I think they're way too easy. Sonic Unleashed HD is probably my favorite video game of all time, believe it or not. Sonic '06 is actually quite fun to play, despite the glitches and long loading times. Other than that, I think the franchise is basically... well, dead. :P

  4. I can't think of anything where my opinion is influence by someone I dislike enjoying something.

     

    I'm guessing it's for specific people. Maybe it's because they feel as if it's a personal thing? I do this thing where I begin to turn against something that certain people enjoy. Like the song. However, if someone I dislike were to tell me that a particular song is terrible, then I'd actually feel RELIEVED that they don't like it. I don't know why I do this, but I just do. :P

  5. I wouldn't call me "huge", but back in the 90'I have played all the 3 classic games on Sega Genesis a lot. Since didn't own a console after the original Playstation, I didn't play any of the modern games when they came out. Last year I have played on PC both Adventure titles and Generations, though I still have to beat the last one :P

     

    Back in the 90's I have also watched both classic cartoons, and Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog was my favorite, which is curious since most people usually prefer the Saturday Morning one :D. Back then, I have also read a couple of issues of the comics by Archie, which I enjoyed.

     

    I have started reading again the Archie comics a little over two years ago, and currently it is the only Sonic media I consistently follow. It has my favorite portrayal of the characters, head writer Ian Flynn is a big Sonic fan since the earliest days of the franchise and he is great with capturing the essence of the characters and merging the game "lore" (or lack thereof) into a consistent and compelling narrative :)

     

    You're here too, Sunwalker? Cool! :D

  6. I think it works with songs or whatever as well.

     

    Let's say you LOVE a song to death. Then let's say that someone that you practically DESPISE also loves that very same song. The main question is, does the fact that he loves the same somewhat muddle my taste for the song? To me, it somewhat does. If that particular person is a massive **** to me, the fact that he enjoys the song will probably remain in my mind whenever I hear it. So that song I love is now associated with his jerkiness, somewhat souring it. lol

  7. My Favourite Mane 6 Pony: Pinkie Pie

    How did you find MLP Forums?: Google Search


    How you became a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic: Rooster Teeth
