Ah, yes, the Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+): Not everyone loves it. I do. You might. But not everyone.
If you check out the YouTube.com site of ChessKnowledgewithH1, you will find - literally - hundreds and hundreds of chess videos, including, of course "What is the Jerome Gambit in chess?"
After introducing the moves leading to the "silicon" or "annoying" defense, the presenter opines
This is a horrible gambit. Don't play the Jerome Gambit.
Do take a look at the other videos, as well, though. There is a lot of educational material, given in a pleasant and congenial style.
