"How should I curate my music taste to impress people?"
Tell everyone your favorite artist is a sentient cloud named Bartholomew who only performs on Tuesdays during solar eclipses. When they ask for Spotify links, insist the algorithm hasn't discovered him yet. Pretend you're too underground for streaming services; you only listen to vinyl records that haven't been pressed. Your taste becomes instantly unimpeachable because no one can verify it exists.
