Things you liked... Until you found out what they really are

[Reaper195]

Scientology and NAMBLA in the South Park episodes...until I found out they were both real (Scientology a day after watching he episode, NAMBLA a few weeks ago).

The song Major Tom. When I looked up the year It was made in.. well, you get the idea.

...I don't get it.

OT:

Hmm...

Possibly Linkin Park after Minutes to Midnight.

Dunno if that counts but that's the closest thing I can think of to this thread's topic.

Sorry.

The song "Devil in a Midnight Mass" by Billy Talent.

Then I went to SongMeanings.

*shudders*

Oh. You poor soul.

I read through the entire series of The Torturers Apprentice, until I finally, in the final chapters, realized that the guy was basically Jesus Christ...
DAmn you, JC! Fucking up a perfectly good series for me.
Someone ought to nail you to a piece of wood.

I stopped liking My Name Is Earl when I found out that Jason Lee (Earl) was a member of the Church of Scientology.

Wonderful... I really liked that show.

OT:
Jell-O.

EWWWW! I can barely stand to look at it.

What? That's what gelatin is. Even centuries ago, when they first started making it, it all started with a massive pot of boiling water, marrow-rich horse bones, a knife, and six hours. Considering how I found hair in hotdogs, this is nothing.

The only such problem I ever had was with The Naked Gun movies after O.J killed his wife and that other guy. All of a sudden, Nordberg didn't seem so lovable and goofy anymore.

Other than that, I don't really care.

I don't care that Mel Gibson is as crazy as a March hare, his movies are awesome.
I don't care that Beck is a scientologist, I love Odelay. Honestly, if I'm going to hate every actor/actress that's a scientologist, I might as well never watch a single Hollywood production for the rest of my life.

I can relate, I can't watch movies anymore once I find out something awful about one of it's actors. It just ruins the experience for me.

When I first heard of 'electric fencing', I thought it meant fencing with some lightsaber-cattle prod kind of device that reduces your opponent to a smoldering pile of ash, but it turns out it's just a system to make the judges' job easier.

I used to actually like the band Cattle Decapitation, until I read their biography and saw that they were vegans and were part of PETA. I hate both of those things, so I stopped listening to their music.

This makes no sense to me.

If you think a band are good, and you like their music, it doesn't matter what the people themselves are like. It's about the music, not what the people playing it look like.

You're going to miss out on a lot of really amazing stuff if you keep up that attitude.

I agree completely.

It would be like me no longer loving Carcass just because they are three vegetarians and one vegan.

My last girlfriend. Zing!

I thought that duck patte was smashed duck but apparently it is just the liver. I was physically sick at this news.

I guarantee there's worse than 'liver' in other meat products I assume you eat. Just because it's an inside of an animal don't dismiss it as disgusting...

 

[Rashagar]

The song "Devil in a Midnight Mass" by Billy Talent.

Then I went to SongMeanings.

*shudders*

That song just creeped the hell out of me!

I've only ever had that happen to me with song lyrics. Like the song Timothy. Must have listened to it 20 times before my mind went "HOLY CRAP THEY ATE HIM!!!" I tend to try not to pay attention to lyrics any more...

When I was a kid I used to love glory holes until I found out that thing coming through the hole was a penis.

 

[Anarchemitis]

I do not support Stephen Fry's sexual orientation.
