does anyone else secretly have that “i liked it before it was cool” complex but wont admit it

it’s more along the lines of “you guys were fucking making fun of me for liking this before it was cool” kinda complex

Also a “I super excitedly tried to show this to you years ago and you brushed it off and now you think you introduced it to me and that is infuriating” kinda complex

Welcome to part of why I no longer speak to one of my Ex-roommates (amongst other things).

I have a very specific case of this called “I spent my teenage years desperately trying to interest my mother in fantasy novels so we’d have them as a shared interest and she always refused to read them because the character names were too weird, so I tried to get her to read Game of Thrones, which had more recognisable names and was also excellent, only then she said the books were too long, so when it was first adapted to TV I suggested she give it a try that way, and she STILL said no, so I gave up, but THEN a friend’s daughter told her about Game of Thrones and suddenly she started watching it, got really hooked, and Skyped me to ask, in completely oblivious tones, if I’d ever heard of it before, and to this day she claims to have no memory of my telling her about it for LITERAL YEARS before then”
