i think what he's trying to say is that Brittney Spears may make her fans
think about boys, fashionable clothing and being popular but in terms of the
art itself, britney does not make you think... i mean if you told me you
liked listening to britney because it's just nice to listen to, i could
maybe respect that or at least not think you were nuts, but if you told me
you liked listening to britney because she really made you think about
things, i'd have to laugh..

it's not really ego-masturbatory, it's just a matter of taste..
i don't understand why it's wrong to simply say one thing is better.. if you
think sunnyday is better in all ways to britney spears, there is nothing
inherently wrong with saying that, i mean i know there are a million teenie
boppers who would argue that britney kicks sunnyday's ass but, i would just
say they're wrong and go on believing that my taste is music is far better..

becuase that's the effect it has on whoever says it and that's the only
thing one can go by..

yes, there are, and they'll listen to music that takes no thought.
