Re: overplayed and boring (Reply to this comment)

I second that. There are a few songs by them I like, but I wasn't all that impressed when everyone else went nuts about them and they played everything over and over.

Rumors-Lindsay Lohan: So the fact that Lindsay Lohan has a record deal, does that mean that if I show cleavage, dress like a slut, and can lip synch I can get one too? I just want to make sure before I have that sex change operation.

YES! Finally! It's so true! What is up with all these little girls suddenly turning into super mega star singers? Gee whiz. I thought it was great when Ashlee Simpson got busted on SNL. HAH!

Great review - tons of fun to read and I love how there was no holding back on anything. =D

While I don't seem to hate Kravitz's Lady as much as you, I can't help, every time I hear the song, thinking of the scene from Fargo with Mike Yanagita in the diner when he's choking back tears, saying "Oh Margie, you're such a super lady" with the thick Minnesotan accent...

overplayed and boring (Reply to this comment)

How could you have a "most overplayed" category without Maroon Five in it?! Keane is, indeed, extremely boring and whiny, but I like the Killers. "Somebody Told Me" is really fun. Nina Skye, Kevin Lyttle, Ashlee Simpson... *barf* What a crappy year for music.

I must protest... (Reply to this comment)

...your comment about R.E.M.'s album being overrated. After all, has it really gotten that many critical blowjobs?

I ask as one of the blow-job givers who has felt extremely lonely about his blow-job-giver-ness since said (totally unregretted, totally unapologetic) blow-job.

Maybe you thought it was a bad album. But certainly not over-rated.

(The Killers, on the other hand: definitely over-rated)

"Jessica looks sexy in lingerie, she looks sexy in a huge T-Shirt - no matter what, she looks sexy." That is just uncomfortably creepy.

The most disturbing thing to me was that whole purity ring dealie...

Joe gave her a "purity ring" when she was twelve, to be replaced by a wedding ring on her wedding day. It was to creepily urge her to remain a virgin. Says a Rolling Stone article: "'I told her that I would try my best to be the man in her life,' says Joe Simpson, in a cadence eerily similar to a marriage vow. 'That I would be her support and her security, that I would encourage her and worship her and fill her up until she found the man of her dreams.'

Ummm...oookaaaayyy....

that petey pablo song is called "freek-a-leek" unless there's another song where he just rattles off girls' names in the chorus. of course, with petey, that's quite possible.

great writeup.

Picturing you grabbing your damn sack and squeezing in order to hit those notes? Yeah, that's a VERY bad thing

Didn't Joe Simpson used to be a reverend or a deacon or something. Talking about your daughter in lingerie-how Christian that is...

...and wait a minute, Kevin Lyttle makes you think of me...and this is a bad thing? Matty Matty Matty. I'm disappointed.

:) Nice write up

Awesome write-up, and...


Creepy Manager of the Year: Can someone investigate Joe Simpson please? The way he talks about his daughters REALLY makes me wonder what type of relationship he wants to have with them.


YES! Quote from him I read recently (it went something like this, anyway): "Jessica looks sexy in lingerie, she looks sexy in a huge T-Shirt - no matter what, she looks sexy." That is just uncomfortably creepy.
