A friend of mine once told me about a metal group he heard online and really liked. Then he found out they were neo-nazis. He was sorely disappointed.
Things you liked... Until you found out what they really are

Snails. They were a delicacy to eat on New years when I was young, until I found out they were snails 
i couldn't touch em for a while, but they are good nonetheless

Out of curiosity, what did you think it was that would convince you Scientology was cool? First I heard of them was allegations of asshattery (so a word... shut up), so I am completely baffled by your post.Sarah Kerrigan said:
OT: Catholicism. No, I am not trolling. I was raised by a Protestant family and went to a Protestan primary school. I would only ever hear about Catholicism as the 'other' Christian religion. I didn't like my school, so I figured Catholics would have to be the cooler alternative, right? Nope.
Trans Siberian Orchestra's Sarajevo...until I found out it was based on a guy who used to play a cello in the middle of a warzone in the city of Sarajevo, now it's just kind of depressing.
GOOD SIR, HOW DARE YOU MOCK THE SACRED DOG?! HOW DARE YOU?!hurfdurp said:
Seriously though, I find myself liking Family guy less when it got to the point where it really became a liberal anti-relgion pot smoking soapbox.
I mostly share those beliefs, but it just became so over blown. To the point of being really really annoying even for fairly liberal people like myself, it was clogging up the actual funny stuff.
The newer episodes have sort of tainted the older ones in my eyes. Shame too.
Yeah, that was like the coolest dystopian reality game ever, and then I found out it was REAL. Are you kidding me?Sarah Kerrigan said:
Seriously, you people are too concerned with appearances, and your image. What the hell does it matter if someone's a hipster, or a vegan, or an artist's political or religious views, wether it's a writer or a musician or whatever. How does that affect your enjoyment of their works?
I agree, I'm always hearing people trashing Slipknot (the only band that I can think of as an example), but when I ask why they say "Well the musics okay, but they wear Masks!!!"...DuplicateValue said:
As for me, I once read a book series called Doom... It was an amazing series until the last book... Then I found out that it was religious... I'm not flaming on religion or anything but I mean EXTREMELY religious! In the beginning, they're shooting first and taking names second and then next thing you know, BAM! Super Religious...
Ruined it, it really did...
Rocky Mountain Oysters. Naturally, I thought it was seafood, but it is definitely not. I am embarrassed to say what it is because I, uh, accidentally swallowed some. But hey, it was pretty good. That's all that counts, doesn't it?

So is Ethen Suplee, Randy. But I have really mixed feelings about Jason Lee, I mean hes an ex pro skateboarder who has acted in some of my favorite things, Kevin Smith films in general and My Name is Earl. But then he goes and believes in the magical aliens that throw frozen people into volcanoes and now they all up are our grill, and we be like, yo back of dawg, I ain't hassling.NuclearPenguin said:
That rant really got away from me I'll admit, but I'm just trying to sex up Scientology.
This is how I felt about Rise Against. I just don't see how you can claim to be a rock band, which, you know generally involves drink, drugs, sex and rock and roll, and claim to be straightedge endorsing PETA members. If Lemmy said anything like that those warts on his face would have up and left years ago!Kevlar Eater said:

When i found out that most fruits are expanded and modified plant ovaries.
I thought Fallout 3 was cool, and then I got to the end.
I was so disappointed that I can't even take the game off the shelf anymore, it was ruined so badly.

Lots of things contain gelatin. Custard contains gelatin sometimes, some soaps aswell, I believe. Anyway, it's just using all the animal and not throwing bits away. Also, don't you have bones and skin ?JezebelinHell said:
OT : Creed, for being christian rock, and Mc Donalds, after a friend of mine when I was 8 told me his dad had seen a representative buying a ton of testicles to put in the burgers, which is'nt true (I hope), but the burger contains crap already so meh.
Yeah, they suck. Ender gets whiny and turns into a wimp. Go read Ender's Shadow, because Battle School and awesomely intelligent kids are what it's all about.Susano said:

Just keep enjoying the song, those douchebags probably didn't write it anyway.

That some of actors of Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back (one of my favorite movies of all time) were on cocaine during most of the Hoth shoots, and sometimes even of the "snow" was that. I refuse to support that movie ever again or even watch it. They want to mess up their lives, fine, but do it off the dang movie set so I can enjoy the movie at least.
I don't eat custard either actually. Nor do I make a habit of eating my own bones and skin... Just something wrong with that. Small amounts of gelatin are no big deal. It really is just the whole shiny, wiggly, jiggly gelatin desert sitting there looking so pretty and tempting that rolls my stomach.d4rkxy13x said:
Eh. If I like them, I like them. What they are doesn't change my opinion of them. Which is not to say original notions can't change. The first time I saw the word "Scientology", I assumed it was a church of science. The belief that empiricism and objective evaluation could provide meaning to your life? Sounds good, right? It also goes the other way. Chinese Democracy, for instance.
