You bring up a valid point. Maybe Serloco is a magician who has an appreciation for mainstream content. Maybe he's just a farmer or truck driver. He did say he was a horticulturist. I think you're using stereotypes from myths like the Lady in the Lake that is somewhat applied differently in our day and age (no wifi was available in the middle of a huge lake).
Why can't magicians have primitive tastes? Their level of normal is centered around metaphysics. The intangible. It's practically expected that they would find fascination in rubber duckies and overall be easily entertained by the activities of muggles.
I like that song.
I see no obvious reason why not. *Exploring* "The Habitual Assemblage Point" or whatever you call it seems like a 100% valid thing to do, but as a general rule if the goal is to *break free of the HAP*, listening to the same music everyone else does and watching youtube videos with 3,000,0000+ views just seems like a weird way of going about that
I thought the HAP was based on individual habits, not the collective habit.
I'm quite fond of "I'm Sexy and I Know It". I think these are known as simple pleasures.
