How could I make fun of kids that listened to Outkast?

I remember making fun of the kids that listened to Outkast back in highschool but now I listened to their new album and think that it's incredible... Ever do that - totally mock and hate something without experiencing it first?

90% of people do.

89.999999999% still do after experiencing something they liked but originally flamed.

I mock things without experiencing them all the time. That's most of the fun of it. Overtime I'm finely honing my mocking skills to increase accuracy. Indeed, to claim that mocking something without experiencing it is not fair is just not true!

I see no need to kick them while they're down.

Ever listen to their stuff? Maybe you should check out a few songs before knocking them

I was just making the obvious joke

The fact that you can admit you were wrong is pretty big. I used to pass judgement on things before I really knew anything about them (People, Apple computers, etc). Then I decided, instead of being ignornant, that I would go out and educate myself. I found that, in a lot of instances, I was wrong.

You know, I used to bash apples as well but now I own a G4 rig that I love (panther rocks!).. I think that part of growing older is admitting that you're ignorant about some things.. Like Thai food

meh. why bother with accuracy? if you do that, you lose hyperbole.

Or jumping on the bandwagon everyone else is.

Ouch - there is a difference between admitting that you're wrong, and then actually becoming wrong as you have done to buy a G4!
