A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected]. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I'll go first. Mine is that I can't stand the Deadpool movies. They are self aware and self referential to an obnoxious degree. It's like being continually reminded that I am in a movie. I swear the success of that movie has directly lead to every blockbuster having to have a joke every 30 seconds

I do this same thing. It's there a name for it? Peer defiance?

Me too, when people recommend me tv shows.

On paper they're series that I would like, but the recommendations years old and I still haven't watched them.

I think it's just called you guys being contrarian

You could say this if I behaved that way with every recommendation, but it is how something is recommended that is the issue here. Context is key.

Demand avoidance is a thing, I specifically hate it when people are all “BRO, how have you not seen this, it’s the shit. YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOURE MISSING!” So I just stay away as a fuck you I guess.

I find the people who do the whole "how have you not seen [...]" Have not matured enough too have the awareness that other people have different life experiences. Lack of empathy.
