My own denials of rationality.

Errr...
Animes?!
Also, I share a very similar hatred of "niggas". My and a debate colleague of mine (he's black, btw) discussed race and I told him that I just couldn't stand niggas. Before he could kill me, I explained, and he shared a similar attitude.
You come damn close to 50/50ing me, as in I hold to half of your ideas and think the rest are just garbage.
For example, I love Japan and have recently taken a liking to FF games, but was never a hardcire fan.

JAPANIMATIONS. XD

The FF games, to me, are absolute crap. An RPG is more than the gameplay, it's the story, and their stories are never anything very unique, interesting, or provocative in any way. Lots of it is just bubbleheaded bipolar nonsense. FF7 was fun, but I wouldn't even rank it in my Top 10 Games of All Time, or anywhere near it; it's GOOD. But it's NOT worth the adulation it receives. Now, anime...different story. It's a dime a dozen and most of the time the entire dozen will be absolute crap. There's little effort put into it, the voice acting sucks regardless of the language and the characters always make me want to slap them with a baseball bat. Japan...trust me, you may THINK it's awesome...which leads me to believe you haven't gone there for an extended period of time. *lol* I went there for two weeks with high expectations, but I didn't stick to the tourist traps, Immersed myself into the culture as much as I possibly could. And I did not like what I saw. It was like going to Las Vegas, and instead ending up in Topeka, Kansas. If you are not Japanese, you are "gaijin;" alien, foreigner, and the word isn't spoken so much as spat at you. Japan MAY be a nice place to visit as a tourist...but if I'm going for the tourism...why wouldn't I just stop in, say, Hawaii? At least the natives there are pretty cool, laid back, and welcoming, the beaches are GORGEOUS, and the islands are beautiful.

And the hula dancers are something to drool all over, too.
