Is it a weird guilt thing?
I hated that song when the programme was new, but now I feel guilty about it, because someone was trying their best, and they wrote, re-wrote, edited and worked on that song and for every instrument and vocal, someone practised and practised and performed, and even if it wasn’t quite to my taste, it doesn’t mean it was bad, and I picture them still crying themselves to sleep at night, twenty years later, going “everyone hates the song I did for Star Trek Enterprise and now I hate myself”, so I make sure to watch the full intro so I don’t hurt their feelings.
That’s what everyone else does too, right?
Me “Hi, is that, umm… Phones, number four, uhhhh?”
Phones4u “Haha, yes, but It’s pronounced ‘Phones For You’”
Me “Oh, it’s it a wrong number? I’ve got it written down here, it’s a number four, not a word ‘for’ f-o-r, and it’s not the word ‘you’, but just a letter U on its own, which is pronounced ‘uh’”
Phones4u “yes, that’s how we write it”
Me “Why? Why didn’t you do it properly? It’s just like that argument with the 90s boyband Fiveive all over again.”
Etc etc
