That doesn't mean that you have to be opposed to seeing/playing/reading things that you have not yet seen/played/read or heard about before, which is the position you seem to carry with you on a constant basis. If someone tells me about something new [or even something very old] and this is something that this person is excited about and they go on to say great things about it, I take a little bit of my time to found out about it and look for excerpts if it's a book, or samples if its a CD, or some reviews if it's a movie. After doing that, and finding that this is something that may interest me, I go out and purchase said item. Then I watch/read/listen to it to find if it is as good as I have been lead to believe. If it's not, "Oh well!", but if it is, then I am happy that I have found something new that I like.
Not you, though! You seem incredibly, STAUNCHLY, opposed to finding out about new things that have not, as yet, being experienced by you and any encouragement to do so by other members is met by a wall that only gets stronger and higher everytime someone puts for words of praise for said item! I just really do not understand such a position, which seems to be, in sentence form, "the only goods things are the things I have already experienced and anything I have not experienced is not worth experiencing". Makes no sense to me.
