1 year agoIt could be the most action-packed insane book but if the person in question’s preference is, say, romance they’re still gonna find it boring!
Boring doesn’t inherently mean it needs to be more exciting, it means “more things that interest me need to be happening”!
Oops, sorry if I missed that point lol!
Yeah, I’m often in awe of the same! But people are truly so complex and different, it makes sense. Saw a post on a different sub that was discussing the importance of acknowledging the difference between “I liked it” and “it’s good” in terms of media. Too many people jump to “it’s bad bc I don’t like it”. But it’s completely possible to like something that was objectively done in a technically bad/low effort kinda way and vice-versa. “Boring” and “I hate it” do feel like cop out comments but sometimes I can’t help but sympathize bc they might not be entirely able to verbalize what they like or don’t like. 🤷🏽♀️
