I can't believe no one voted for 'dreamers and outcasts...'. Come one, one can't be more of a social outcast with tastes like mine:

- Prog rock: This is absolutly THE MOST despised and unfashionable music today. Hell, even the Easter processional marches from Seville are more widely accepted.

- Pre-Raphalites: Please, can someone tell me a most unfashinable pictorial school nowadays?

- Fantasy: This is one of a hell o a cynical era. Fantasy worshippers must take shelter in the company of nerds... because we are usually nerds.

At least, I usually like mainstream movies above all... what makes me a social outcast in my work, a tv channel full of people with a taste for terrible irani films about people doing nothing...

Their answer?

"Then we must assume it is a masterpiece out of sync with the time we live in!"

Peace.

A brilliant quote, and utterly true.

Just a bunch of people who prefer certain types of music.

Any age group, although the older set are more protective because of all the years of progressive rock bashing by the so-called music critics following their shallow trendy waves through the years.

Probably a strange mixture of all these possibilities

How to chose ??

Regarding my own anatomy (a kind of trilobite from the Lower Cambrian) I vote for the last option

Anyway, the best poll of ever
