let me do the serving of the cunt.

Hate-watching is a pastime; it brings you joy and makes you laugh. It’s simple entertainment. You spend half an hour making fun of it on social media and go on with your day.  For me, The Idol was the pinnacle of that.

Suffer-watching is self-torture. You make long threads and think pieces about a show you claim doesn’t interest you. You go on and on trying to diminish the fun of other people for enjoying it. You turn fandom spaces into cesspools of hate whenever someone disagrees with you. Every day. For weeks. It makes you repetitive and boring. Why? Is it worth it?

I promise you there’s so much out there. So many TV shows, movies, and books to consume and have fun. Why spend so much time complaining about something that clearly makes you unhappy? And judging people for loving it?
