Examples that come to mind:
- saying your favorite video game is Disco Elysium
- saying your favorite TV show is Star Trek DS9
The two rules are that:
- It has to be to do with a category that is socially acceptable to talk about with most people in a casual setting. So no politics or philosophy.
- Nothing too on the nose, ex, no "I love the music of the Red Army Choir" or something.
Elaine Marie Benes: Oh well nothing wrong with that. Gotta make those big bucks... money money money money money money money... ha ha ha ha ah... are you a communist?
Ned: Yes, as a matter of fact I am.
Elaine Marie Benes: Oh, ah! Oh! Wow! Whoa! A Commie! Wow, gee, man it must be a bummer for you guys, what with the fall of the Soviet empire and everything.
Ned: Yeah, well, we still got China, and Cuba.
Elaine Marie Benes: Yeah, but come on...
Ned: I know it's not the same.
Elaine Marie Benes: Well, you had a good run. What was it 75, 80 years? Wreaking havoc, making everybody nervous.
Ned: Yeah, we had a good run
you're missing the best exchange from that episode:
Elaine (gifting Ned a shirt, which he says is 'too fancy'): Just because you're a communist, does that mean you can't wear anything nice? You look like Trotsky
Ned (excitedly): Good!
