Me: “I like the bands Korn and Slipknot. I am also a fan of Metallica.”

Metal Elitist: “Theres no way you like that mallcore bullshit! All they do is sing about angst and dress like rappers! How could you possibly want to listen to a song where a man expresses his emotions? Poser!” *recommends you a black metal band that makes songs about killing minorities*
