Rap music....is a form of music people listen to. It was more catchy 30 years ago, and more fun, so on the rare occasion I do listen to rap I'll seek some older stuff.
Country Music is still popular to this day for not changing too much, not giving too much to trends, while it has some (autotune country is pure shit, sorry I can't say anything positive about it). I can see why since it's mainly stayed the same (Tho I know like every genre, older country is real country and whatever out now isn't) I do like the older stuff too that had more twang.
While I don't have much interest in watching AEW, I think its great they exist and wrestling is always better when there is some form of competition. Do I criticize them? Yes but only because I think they hold themselves back and they could grow even more fans, but then they do have their core fans which is good as well.

I can't stand Hulk Hogan but I could watch his WrestleMania 4 and Yappapi Strap Match promos all day. Metallica's St. Anger is bad but in the same way that The Room is bad. It's fascinatingly terrible as opposed to Load and Reload which were just boring terrible. Jimmy Fallon's probably one of my least favorite SNL cast members (at least among the ones people actually remember) but he was always funny on Celebrity Jeopardy sketches. Likewise. Terry Bollea is total garbage but I’ll admit Hollywood Hogan was one of the all time great chickenshit heel characters.

I liked the scene in The Rise of Skywalker where thousands of different spaceships arrived to take on the Emperor and the Final Order. It was moving to see the entire galaxy rise up against the bad guys.
I appreciate WWE's commitment to Roman Reigns and the Bloodline and how they've managed to keep the story as over with as many people as they have for so long.
I thought the scenes in Batman v Superman where Clark Kent is pursuing the Bat story and interviewing regular people in Gotham about it were charming and very fitting for Clark. I wanted to see more of Clark being Clark (shame the scenes were cut from the theatrical version though.)
I listen more or less exclusively to music that has a lot of guitars in it, but I can appreciate the skill and talent required to write and perform a lot of rap music. Choosing the right words, the right sounds, and the right rhythms is more difficult than the best rappers make it seem.

Iron Blooded Orphans has issues, and probably would have been served well by being a shorter series, but it has a lot of great designs and cool elements to it. I wouldn't necessarily say I dislike it, as I don't, I just find it to be something of a disappointment.

It was moving to see the entire galaxy rise up against the bad guys. The sheer scale of that scene is pretty impressive, too, on top of all the different cameos and easter eggs in the fleet.
Continuing with The Rise of Skywalker, it and its supplementary material reintroduced a lot of Sith Lords from Legends continuity back into the new canon, like Revan, Naga Sadow, Andeddu, Tenebrous, Desolous, and Phobos.

AEW has gotten guys some chances that they wouldn't with Vince running WWE.
Led Zeppelin has had a strong effect on hard rock and heavy metal.
Rage Against The Machine at least isn't Five Finger Death Punch. Which is the ONLY good thing I will ever say about RATM as I otherwise have nothing but utter hatred towards them.

I used to despise country music. It still isn't my favorite genre but I can respect it. Maybe it depends on the artist. However, I would probably listen to the likes of Loretta Lynn, Patsy Cline, George Strait, etc. before I would listen to acts from the past two or three decades.

Lots of places sell cheap shawarma around here. Most of the time it's oily garbage. Ground meat that's heated in a rice cooker. Ask for cheese and you get a stick of unmelted processed cheese.
Very few places have those vertical spits where the shawarma is cooked and they slice pieces off.
If I can say one compliment for the cheap shawarma is that they usually come as buy 1 take 1 free.

Broccoli looks like little trees and it makes me think there are tiny little magical vegetable people who farm vast broccoli forests and cut down all the broccoli stocks and haul them to the grocery store in miniature flying logging trucks and there are probably a portion of the populace who protest about all of the broccoli forests getting chopped down so they picket at the forests with tiny signs and cauliflower is the kind of thing except nobody cares about the cauliflower forests because its either broccoli or cauliflower and these tiny little activists only have so much time in their short vegetable land days and nights maybe after they take care of all the broccoli they can do something about the cauliflower and then there is romanesco which is like the marijuana of the little vegetable people world.

I'm in the same boat, I have gotten a bit around on country music. I could find like maybe a few decent tunes from recentish years but I put on a reg country radio station, it gets old within 2 or 3 songs fast. But old stuff like the ones you mentions, Waylon Jennings, the Highwaymen, others, and certainly when it leans more into southern rock like Ozark Mountain Daredevils and such.

Winter is cold. It’s dark. I get seasonal depression. I break my back shoveling my car out of the snow. And it seems to last longer each year. But at least there is the occasional snow day.

CM Punk is a good on the mic.
Florida has an interesting environment and wildlife.
In the Air tonight by Phil Collins is a cool song(though I'm more indifferent then disliking towards Phil collins)
Ghostface occasionally falling while chasing his targets is the most consistently funny things in the Scream movies.
Rural towns don't have as much traffic, making it easier to go for walks around town.
I like The kill by 3O seconds to mars.
Anasui's stand looks cool.
Throwing people through stuff in the minority report game is fun.
The Yu-Gi-Oh card game has a lot of cool looking card art.
I like Red Son and some of the Ultimate Marvel stuff by Mark Millar.

Ed Sheeran writes songs that make a lot of money. Good for him.

Mushrooms are useful and serve a necessary ecological function.
I don't wanna eat them, but I acknowledge that they serve a purpose. Unlike wasps. F*** wasps.

Sailor Moon DiC dub maybe corny, but you could tell that they were having fun doing it. I still call them by their english names.

I was foolish enough to delve into watching every episode of WWF wrestling during the New Generation Era. Viewers beware, you're gonna find yourself trudging through a lot of shite, because that era was pure bum.
BUT, I will say there are some gems in that era that are definitely worth checking out.
