that's not what they said. they said they 'listen to everything' and 'don't have a favorite genre/band'. if you ask someone 'what's your favorite band' and their answer is 'i hate music', then yeah, you can't have a conversation, but if you were to ask me that (the i like a lot of things anon), i might answer 'well, i don't really have a favorite, but there's a lot of things i do like. what's your favorite?', because lbr here, most people ask things like that because they have something specific they want to talk about.

if asked for examples, i can and often do list off a bunch, but i've always hated any 'what's your favorite' questions, because i just don't have favorite out of things with huge pools to pick from. what's my favorite movie? i don't have one. i have a handful or more of ones i really like and can watch over and over again, but i don't have one or even two favorites.

that's not weird, btw. it's just different ways of processing things. i have friends that are like me, but i have ones who have very specific things they like. this is their favorite coffee, this is their favorite song, this is their favorite movie. and that's cool. but op started it in an inflammatory way to make not having one ring to rule them all sound like someone was too dumb to like something.
