Why do we feel the need to have ‘favorites’

People often ask us “what is your favorite band”
“What is your favorite player”
“What is your favorite movie”
I just can’t help but wonder why there is such a societal need to have a favorite. Sometimes, we naturally do have a favorite. Sometimes we really don’t. Can’t we love something and appreciate something without having to rank it against everything else we’ve ever encountered?
I just feel like it’s intellectually dishonest sometimes

And sometimes we just overthink things too much

This is a really beta stance. There are winners and there are losers. Get over it.

That’s a fricking bullsit stance. Go tell Pyrrhus that and see what he says.

Those conversations usually center around figuring out someone's personality or trying to find common ground. They're basic conversation starters. No biggie.

He probably wouldn’t say anything because he’s been dead for thousands of years. That’s my favorite historical fact!

I don't feel a need to have favorites. I just have them. They simply are. I don't lose a moment of sleep over it.
