23. Hated It

Sun Feb 8, 2026, 10:01 PM

Feb 8

I mostly listened to see what all the hype was about with Bad Bunny. I’m still wondering. Whatever that was, it wasn’t singing. And I found the gratuitous crotch grabbing and macho posturing really offensive. I’m glad other people enjoyed it, but that is not my cup of tea. Oh well, so much for the valentines.
