Please don't kill me, but I absolutely HATE Adele's music. Ugh. I don't understand why she's popular! The sound of her voice reminds me of a yowling cat in heat.

I'm with you on that! I can't get her at all.

Please don't kill me, but... I agree with Christopher Titus: "Lady Gaga is proof that David Bowie raped Carol Burnett." Not only does she look like something out of a C-grade broadway show, but her songs are not worthy of the bargain bin at the local dollar store. I hate the fact that "Weird Al" has become a fan of hers - I don't need parodies of songs that don't want to hear in any form. What is this, MST3K making fun of bad media?

Second, Rihanna needs to disappear off the planet. If I see another one of her interviews for that stupid Battleship movie, I'm gonna scream; The same goes for walking into a store and hearing her destroy the radio even more than it already is. I didn't know the word "Umbrella" had FOURTEEN syllables! When Mel Tillis sang, he did a great job of hiding the fact that he stuttered, but Rihanna has made it into an intentional insult (since she doesn't naturally stutter). That girl is not pretty - she's bug-eyed with the voice of an over-stressed Mexican woman; I've got friends who sound a lot like her in their normal speech (though more intelligent).

I honestly haven't had the spare time to even download it yet, much less devote enough time to start playing such an epic game.

Please don't hate me, but I hate it when people use the word "epic" and don't mean "something in verse dealing with heroes or war".

But I do that... albeit, rarely... but I do... (in much the way that you yourself use "totes" and "onoes", milady).

We started translating Homer today.

I get Damar's My Little Pony issue. And I'll add to it this: I pity these kids today. If it's not Disney's Stitch licking boogers from his nose, it's Spongebob showing his disgusting, hairy butt for no reason, or any of Disney's current "all parents are morons to be ignored" attitude strewn throughout each and every show - cartoon or live action. The days of DuckTales, Wuzzles, Kissyfur, the Get Along Gang, Snorks, and Gummibears showing adults as wise and worthy of attention are gone. If not for Jakers!, the whole world would be without parent-supporting shows, from what I'm seeing. That also applies to sitcoms. If Everybody Loves Raymond doesn't scream, "All adults are complete idiots!!", I don't know what does.

I'd just like to point out: Some parents are morons to be ignored to avoid head esplosions.

Oh, Homer and his rosey-fingered Dawn...

I remember when I took a literature course (for fun and to round out certain electives) and it was awful and we had to read the Odyssey, so I sat down and started reading it on Perseus Tufts instead.

Related to a few posts back:

I can't stand Pixar. I've never liked any of their movies, and I have been forced to see most of them.

And I swear it's not a bias thing. I went into Meet the Robinsons thinking it was a Pixar film and fully admitting that I thought it was cute and amusing, only to find out that it was a straight-up Disney film. I've just never liked anything Pixar made. Blegh.

Is liking Pixar taboo?

I love them!

Rosella · « **Reply #228 on:** May 15, 2012, 12:42:16 PM »

Right, everyone does. That's why I'm saying I don't like them in this thread.

Aaaaar.

You mean this?

Precisely.

I agree with Dawson about Rihanna. Some of her music earlier in her 'career' was tolerable but not so much now. And the gangsta thing she's trying to pull now... no. I'm not a fan.

Haids1987 · « **Reply #233 on:** May 15, 2012, 09:44:27 PM »

I hate Rihanna. I think I said that on the very first page of this thread, but all in all I can't stand her. And OF COURSE, I realize that I don't know her as a person blah blah blah blah, but I hate her music and I REALLY don't like her persona as a celebrity.

On a related note, I hate Nicki Minaj (sp?) also. She's just a freak. She has no identity of her own; she's a complete ripoff of Lady Perry, or Katy Gaga, whichever you prefer. And all of her stupid voices she puts on?! I'd rather listen to my brother's cringe-inducing redition of "Unbreak My Heart" on repeat for a day.

And people act like Ms. Minaj is so original. Please, Lil Kim has the outrageous costumes rapper girl going for her way back in the 90s. (Anyone remember the '99 Vma number where one part was completely cut out and one of her bosoms was only covered with a purple stud?)

Please don't kill me, but I think it's kind of disgusting that everyone has orange skin.

I read this on Pinterest: "There's a difference between being tan and looking like you rolled in a bag of Doritos."

writerlove · « **Reply #237 on:** May 16, 2012, 08:41:44 AM »

There is a huge difference. I don't understand tanning. At all. Does it look attractive? Yes. But why risk possibly getting skin cancer for the sake of vanity?

People have done much stupider things in the name of beauty.

Skin cream used to contain lead, arsenic and mercury.
