What are the most "Over-rated" things in the world?

[Khephra]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

[lazarus]

1. lists

:evilgrin:

[tridim]

2. bah dum bump..

:)

[Khephra]

4. CA Couch spaces!

;-)

[lazarus]

5. It's now a futon

So you have no excuse. :P

[rot0r_head]

3. Three-way tie for first place

1. Bush's leadership
1. Those stupid people-mover things
1. The film "Forrest Gump"

[jdots]

6. Wine in a box

its so hard to get the straw to stay in it.

[orwell]

7. 5 Easy Pieces

Rove's "Genius"
Raygun's Foreign Policy
Bushies "Honesty"
Virginity
Tanqueray Gin

[WildEyedLiberal]

8. I was going to say Karl Rove

Ya beat me.

Honestly, I think he's just a dirty, foul little man who doesn't play by the rules. No genius necessary.

Also overrated: John McCain. If he were a real maverick, he wouldn't stump for the man who assassinated his character, and he wouldn't stab his friend John Kerry in the back.

[bloodyjack]

11. virginity??

don't know it till you try it, man.

[Dukakis88]

15. i am trying it... for the last 33 years

[MisterP]

32. this is MisterP's avatar speaking:

what's with all these virgins? I come out of the cave, and there they are, weeping damsels tied to trees. What are these villagers thinking?
Gotta go now, AHNULD is outside, wearing his chainmail loincloth, yelling about molesters or something else he does.

[utopian]

9. stuff

[BlueJazz]

10. 4/4 time

[FreedomFry]

25. Give me 6/8 any time!

[realisticphish]

29. definately

or 12/8. so long as i get triplets

:hippie: The Incorrigible Democrat

[vajraroshana]

31. LOL ...

I love Frank Zappa. He was brilliant at utilizing all kinds of incredibly difficult time signatures and used to poke fun at the 4/4 mentality of most rock and pop music; the nice thing is that when you hear some of his music it sounds so effortless and natural. Miles Davis was really good that way too.

[bettyellen]

12. that rosebud movie, what was it called?

:boring:

[Skarbrowe]

14. Citizen Kane?

Ya mean you don't like your camera angles all sideways and upside down? Or I am I way too old and rosebud means something entirely different???

[mr blur]

47. Sorry, not over-rated

Citizen Kane is a bone-fide masterpiece, just like people say. If there were artists like Welles working in America now then your film industry wouldn't be a laughing stock. On the other hand, here in the UK we can't really afford a film industry, so...

[bettyellen]

54. they have an excuse to be a laughing stock?

oh you're right, most movies are just not worth watching these days. i'm sorry, i didn't see citizen cane until i was maybe 24 or 25 and i had already seen probably every movie that ripped off stuff from wells, and lot of scorcese iamong others that i liked better and so i guess it just didn't enthrall me. i kept thinking about the saturday night live skit because chevy chase really did a good job as that old guy, and i don't know it just didn't grab me.
i don't want to start a fight but, it's no goodfellas.

[Dukakis88]

13. Adam Sandler, Krispy Kreme, SaturdayNightLive, rap, anime, tit implants...

...Old Navy, C.S.I., Starbucks, anything associated with Disney except Miramax, Stephen Spielberg, Stephen Soderbergh ("Traffic" was lousy), blow jobs (cunnilingus is the new blow job), computer animated special effects in cinema that everybody raves about but which look completely fake (see "Spider-Man"), non-Mexican new age food wrapped in tortillas, Botox, video games, P.T. Cruisers, P.F. Chang's Faux-Chinese Restaurants.

[Johnny 99]

16. Quentin Tarantino movies

There, I said it.

[Dukakis88]

17. TOTALLY! "Kill Bill" was less than two-dimensional -- 1.5 dimensional

[Arcturus]

18. The stratosphere is the most overrated of all spheres.

[Spider Jerusalem]

19. Alcohol.

Turns you into a belligerent moron or a weeping basket case; causes brain damage; in sufficient quantities causes blackouts and loss of bowel and bladder control. Yet is's not only socially acceptable but quite often celebrated. Personally, if I must alter my consciousness, I'd rather do so with cannabis, which has almost none of the nasty side effects of alcohol, and is, in general, a pretty benign substance, yet inexplicably remains illegal and demonised.

[HEyHEY]

20. You gossss sumin ta say buster!

[Skittles]

44. I will take a stoned person over a drunk any day

ANY day

[Nordic]

21. anal sex

I never really understood the attraction.

I'm a guy, by the way

[LibLover]

33. Ever see "Taxicab Confessions"?

Some said he guy got raped by a guy who was "well endowed", and he had to wear diapers because it never closed up right.

I'm too tiny a girl. Even a guy hung like a squirrel would hurt my little butt!

[Dukakis88]

35. Awww...

"Even a guy hung like a squirrel would hurt my little butt!"

Anal sex has never sounded so cute and adorable!

[LibLover]

36. Um.... Thanks?

:spank:

[Nordic]

41. everybody has an asshole. What's so special?

that's the way I look at it. I'm a guy and I have an asshole, what's so great about an asshole?

I like all the stuff that I don't have. Like boobs and, well, all that other great female stuff.

[Dukakis88]

48. Hmm...

"I like all the stuff that I don't have. Like boobs and, well, all that other great female stuff."

Like the Lifetime Network?

[Dukakis88]

50. Sorry, I was picturing a cute little squirrel trying to mount a tiny butt.

And it sounded cute.

[Cats Against Frist]

57. No -- that's a good one, and almost a standard in porn/erotica now

right along with the obligatory girl-on-girl scene.

I'm not saying it's bad. Just overrated.

[HEyHEY]

22. Pop culture

[JSJ]

23. material possesions

[camero]

24. Golf

The guy in the plaid knickers is going to hit it again.

[faithnotgreed]

27. its hard to pick just one thing, but golf is definitely up there. way high

[bettyellen]

55. i concur. do you concur?

[LSdemocrat]

26. Nirvana, the music group

[mvd]

28. Critics

BTW, I think Nirvana deserves their praise and like some of pop culture.

[Nordic]

30. actors

In my business I work with actors and they're about the last people whose opinions I want to hear about.

Yet they're all over the fucking place, being put in the spotlight and being asked their opinions on things.

Some of them are fine people, but they're just ACTORS for cryin' out loud.

[LibLover]

34. Ben Affleck

How that no-talent profit sucking turd gets work in Hollywood I'll never know.

[kermujin]

38. how about keanu reeves?

eeeeerg. could you BE any worse?!

oh. and the grateful dead.

[lady raven]

49. I Reeeeeallly like Ben

But I'll be honest: If a piece of paper were better at acting, I'd still love him. It's purely superficial. Don't tell my husband!

[maveric]

37. AOL

[mcerise]

39. love

as potrayed by the chick-flick industry

[Robeson]

40. New Wave Music

[wickerwoman]

42. Mayonaisse?

I can't think of many things less appetizing than glops of mayo all over perfectly good food AND it's fattening.

[Skittles]

43. SPORTS

I mean, come on - it really is just a game; the hero status attained by these overpaid assholes is too much.

[Nag Champa]

45. The Brown Acid

But it's your trip, so be my guest.

[ghostsofgiants]

46. iPods

Overpriced and underfeatured.

[Dukakis88]

51. Totally. Who wants a walkman with a battery that costs $$$ to replace.

[Whoa_Nelly]

52. Sex

but I only say that since haven't had any or met anyone in over three years that I would have sex with. Once I get some it ain't gonna be overrated anymore...lol

[Nikia]

59. I think it seems more overrated once you do it often

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy sex. It just doesn't seem as big of a deal when you can do it almost anytime you want as opposed to when you are anticipating it when you haven't done it in a long time.

[SarahB]

53. marriage

[Cats Against Frist]

56. Boyfriends & "They Might Be Giants"

[qnr]

58. Nuclear power plants... or maybe cellphones... it's a toss-up

[vixengrl]

60. The movie "Titanic."

SUV's. Consensus reality. Britney Spears--dancing. Madonna--singing. Jim Carrey. Radiohead.

(I must now chant the IMHO...IMHO...IMHO....)
