Well the comments have basically answered my question. For the most part rather than bring up alternatives everyone is criticizing me for not conforming. I guess I have my answer, go with the herd or be ostracized. Which has been my exp.


You're actually being a massive asshole about it, which is why you're being ostracized.

If you weren't condescending to people that enjoy donuts, maybe you'd get a warmer response.

I'm not trying to be mean to you or "dunk" on you or whatever, I'm legitimately trying to explain why people are reacting to you the way they are.


Nah man he's right.


Even if he was, being correct wouldn’t make the condescension cool.


I did not read it as condecending. I read it as someone who's frustrated.
