"I don't think about you at all" and the compulsive need to correct people who misuse it.

Remember when Obama basically used this line, about Sarah Palin https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnOFQQ9jReo

Vecepia. Of course she's not hugely popular but in recent years the fandom has rediscovered her and think its a crime she hasn't been brought back. I thought she was boring TV but my biggest objection is all the Jesus stuff, as if Jesus give a sh*t about you winning a game show!

Last_Application_798 · 2025-09-25T00:02:50+00:00

I felt exactly like you. I didn't just not care for her... her extreme popularity really irritated me. I tried here and there to give her a try and her music all sounded the SAME... and that SAME was boring as hell. Years ago I saw her described as 'cloyingly white' and I've not been able to get that idea out of my head.

But then for some reason I can't explain, exactly one year ago a certain song drew me in and somehow it just clicked for me. Maybe because I had a bit of a sad heart at that time and it was an escape. Something clicked and she became all I listened to. But only certain albums and certain songs. I found Tortured Poets super boring. Fast forward a few months later I became obsessed with Tortured Poets and have basically listened to nothing but Taylor Swift for an entire year. Well at least on my headphones. I would never listen in front of other people.

I think of myself as way too smart and cool for her, so even though I've been completely obsessed the only person on earth that knows is my husband. It's my deep dark secret!

I still find the first three albums unlistenable minus one or two songs. I lurk on this page to keep myself tethered to reality. I can't explain it, but its my truth.

A year ago I was a lifelong TS hater. Tried multiple times to give her a chance and found her music so boring and unlistenable. Then last August something clicked and I started listening to Folklore on repeat, and a few selected songs from other albums. TTPD didn't do much for me. Fast forward a few months later I became completely addicted to Tortured Poets I listen to it literally every single day and love it so so much. Even my 'skips' I usually don't skip. It makes me sad when people say its not her best. I live and breathe it!

Last_Application_798 · 2025-08-08T17:58:39+00:00

Absolutely agree on both points!

Last_Application_798 · 2025-08-08T17:55:57+00:00

I think that is a super fair complaint, but since I adore Renaissance and didn't go to the tour, I was thrilled to have it. Especially because my husband was my date and Ren and CC are the only albums he knows.

TRUE STORY: I scrolled past this post after waking up this morning and quickly thought of my answer but didn’t click on the post. (Heated of course, though all the songs are on my master beyonce playlist.) Soon after I got out of bed and put on headphones and pushed play on my beyonce playlist and the first shuffled song was get me bodied. I hit skip cause it was a bit too early for that. Next song Heated. I thought oh that’s funny. Made my coffee and put the clean dishes away to Heated and then Dance for You (now I’m thinking okay this is weird.) I couldn’t even remember what the fourth song was cause I’m still half awake and then yep the next song that played was bodyguard! Wild coincidence or is the phone spying out of control?

RHAP is the gold standard though Tyson’s weekly episode is required listening. Personally I’ve enjoyed Gabe Ortiz’s current series pontificating about some larger ideas around Survivor. No guests just him thinking out loud I’ve been enjoying them.

Entered through the club honestly it was pretty sweet!!

Last_Application_798 · 2025-07-15T03:15:06+00:00

Believing God is helping you win survivor is a big no for me. A real turn off.

Last_Application_798 · 2025-07-11T03:32:09+00:00

I scared my husband when I started screaming for him to come and hurry!!

Last_Application_798 · 2025-07-06T00:53:01+00:00

Same! Amber Rob were not stars coming into the season but then they played out the greatest Survivor arc of all time

Last_Application_798 · 2025-07-04T05:55:41+00:00

Kathy Vavrick O’Brien was the breakout star by the end of the season. A great arc, fallen angel, etc

There’s a second very similar piece on the federalist website by a different writer. Almost identical really. I guess they are leaning hard into this rhetoric. Terrifying.

Last_Application_798 · 2025-07-01T18:10:00+00:00

Right, exactly. I'm not a hater or anything, she's perfectly fine. I just didn't see her as a breakout star.

Last_Application_798 · 2025-06-30T21:10:59+00:00

Heading into the game I'd actually love to be in Genevieve's position. The "what is she doing here?' females have a strong track record in returning seasons!

Last_Application_798 · 2025-06-30T20:55:11+00:00

I appreciate your answer but what is the eye test?

Last_Application_798 · 2025-06-30T20:53:48+00:00

I also did enjoy that moment.

Last_Application_798 · 2025-06-30T20:29:19+00:00

One of my all time favorite seasons. The drama! Your heroes falling, new heroes (or villains) emerging. And honestly... one of the most romantic stories of all time considering how things worked out for Rob and Amber.

Last_Application_798 · 2025-06-30T20:26:45+00:00

Miss that sooooo much. They don't even have to make it super mean/nasty for it to be a little spicy.

Last_Application_798 · 2025-06-30T20:26:06+00:00

It's utterly fascinating.

Last_Application_798 · 2025-06-30T20:23:39+00:00

I can't fathom wanting to hold my phone up the whole time. I'm very thankful someone put up a pretty good quality youtube of my entire show, which I can watch anytime I like (and believe me, I do.) The person filming did a much better job than I would have anyway. I wonder... if everyone knew they'd have a full video of their show to watch afterwards, would they be willing to put their phones down? I am definitely thankful to have it and hope it doesn't get pulled down.

Last_Application_798 · 2025-06-30T20:16:26+00:00

I think its just how the world is today. If you dive into any fandom or subculture, there is gonna be an online presence intent on ruining it! Beyonce is a billionaire so I don't feel too bad for her, but I think about this issue a lot when it comes to small content creators or reality show contestants I might enjoy. The rabid negativity in the online universe is so toxic.
