  8. I still enjoy the songs of #RolfHarris, despite his being a walking anus of a human being. I continue to think #HouseOf Cards was a masterwork of political satire, despite Spacey's personal flaws. I continue to appreciate the sentiment of #MichaelJackson songs like 'Black or White', even though his music isn't really my speed, regardless of the crimes he's accused of.
