Like for example, how someone thinks because you work in IT you can fix their TV, or how if you’re into music you must be able to play any random instrument.

I just like hearing pros rant about about their very niche problems.

    I know things are beginning to change a bit on this topic, but one of mine is that you can’t just casually enjoy anime. Some people seem to think the moment you accidentally see a dragon ball episode that you suddenly turn into davido kun, or regularly glaze one of your 100 half naked figurines of characters that are obviously not meant to look like adults. There can definitely be weird stuff in some of them, but if you can accept the cultural differences in humor, some of the stories are genuinely great. I don’t even watch it much anymore, but it’s sad to me that so many people miss out on such great content just because they’re a little closed minded.

      I’ve known so many people who are so into anime, and every now and then I give anime a shot bc they keep harping on about show x or y. 9/10 are just so full of cringy sexually repressed representations of women/girls and interactions with them that no quality of other storyline could make up for it. Other times, the ‘fan service’ is more manageable. This real, personal experience definitely taints how I initially perceive anyone who brings up anime.
