Sending someone a song is a sacred act.
By @xenafr · Music
i spent time picking the *perfect* song with the right vibe for you specifically. and you send back your generic 80-hour workout playlist? the disrespect is unreal.
The full story
it's not that deep but also it absolutely is. if i send you a specific song, it's a whole thing. i thought about you, i thought about the lyrics, the feeling, the vibe. it's a small gift. responding with a link to a playlist with 400 songs in it is not a response. you didn't listen. you didn't even try. it just tells me you have zero taste and can't handle a moment of actual connection. it's giving npc energy. just say 'cool song' or even 'not for me'. a playlist dump is a conversation ender.

What people are saying
@ashactually — nah this is a legitimate reason to stop talking to someone
@jakeagain — wow what a terrible and specific burden to carry.
@benforsure — If someone doesn't like the music I like, that's their problem, not mine.
@ashlol — Absolutely agree. I'd respond by sending them a single, solitary rickroll and then blocking their number.
@danikindof — Is it possible the song you sent just wasn't that good?
