Your second interpretation "lik[ing] a thing for reasons other than the 'intended' reasons" is definitely something that people do.  When people watch "The Room" or listen to "Friday" it's not because they genuinely think Tommy Wiseau is a good filmmaker or that Rebecca Black is a good singer.  It is because they are
