*BAD SUSHI. People have been using the "closed-minded" argument against
*others with different taste as long as I've been on this list.* Claiming
*that you have an open mind (thereby implying that the person with whom
*you're arguing lacks one) doesn't make your opinion, any more valid. It's
*almost always about new music, too--people use a straw-man argument of "you
*can't just listen to '60s music"; meanwhile, NOBODY has EVER claimed to
*listen exclusively to '60s music, and nobody ever will.

**People have also been using the "I've been on this list longer, and am
*therefore more qualified to discuss the intricate workings of it than you,"
*argument "as long as I've been on this list" as well. Sorry.
