This just made me think, since when do you need a reason to like something? Its not like enjoyment is always logical.
You don't need a reason to enjoy something. I enjoy things and can't fathom why, my logic tells me I should hate it.

But if you like something because ZOMG SO ORSUMMMMMM etc then you're a dick and you're making me hate whatever you're raving about. If you're just saying something is pretty cool and that's it then I'm down with that.

I just... idiots affect me far more than I should let them. (aimed at the context of my post, not you Croyles)
