Young adults should show proper deference to adults old enough to be their parents.

If the swifties get wind of EdnaMode's post they might take down the entire forum

That actually occurred to me as well.

I'd love to see them try 😁😁
I never look back, darling. It distracts from the now.

Citizen Kane is very much overrated.

People are nuts for buying coffee at Starbucks — save your money and brew it at home!

Disco is a great musical genre.

Quote from: marshwiggle on September 26, 2023, 07:35:30 AMNew covers of old songs in a different style are almost always a travesty.

Mashups are generally even worse.

In general agreement, but let me introduce you to Richard Cheese: https://youtu.be/C7CBcc2rwkM.

You may be living even more dangerously for expressing that one than EdnaMode is....

Agreed with MarathonRunner about coffee.  That stuff's nasty.
To us a child is born, to us a son is given
And the government will rest upon his shoulders;
And he will be called Wonderful, Counselor,
The Mighty God, the Everlasting Father,
The prince of Peace.
Of his government and peace there will be no end.

Not interested in seeing bands perform that were performing back before the current hot acts were even born.

This thought put me on a search for the old Bloom County strip from 1982 when the Rolling Stones came to town. "These schmoes look like they are 40 years old!"

The Princess Bride. I don't dislike it--I think it's a pleasant time-filler, but I don't think it's, well, great.

There is no difference between "good" Mexican food and "bad" Mexican food.

The only role Jack Nicholson ever played was Jack Nicholson.

Rap/Hip Hop is only bad poetry spoken rapidly.

Hilary Clinton is the best president America never had.

I had no, NO idea who this person, Taylor Swift, was until all the recent brou-ha-ha.  But, then, I was paying attention to the final concerts of the Emerson Quartet.  Silly me.

Quote from: mythbuster on September 27, 2023, 12:58:08 PMThere really are stupid questions.

Just before I gave a big presentation, one of my supervisors once reminded me that "there are no stupid questions, only stupid answers."


For my part, I don't care for Neil Gaiman's adult writing. And I think that Blood Meridian was pretentious twaddle, and desperately boring.
I know it's a genus.

Linkedin is the most toxic social media site.

Twitter has been lame for a decade and it is no worse (or better) under Musk than it was in the years before he took over.

The Exorcist is a good movie, but not a scary one.

Actually, now that I think about it, Bon Jovi is the worst band of all time. 
Come, fill the Cup, and in the fire of Spring
Your Winter-garment of Repentance fling:
The Bird of Time has but a little way
To flutter--and the Bird is on the Wing.

Since a significant chunk of Christian rock is composed of Bon Jovi clones, I'm not sure how that can possibly be true.

Watching sports is boring and a huge waste of time and energy.

Perhaps I will find a little more support for this on this forum, but this one has plagued me my whole life.  I recall so many times people ask if you like hockey, football, etc., and are kind of shocked when I say no.  Then, when they continue to ask what sport I follow and the look I get when I tell them none...

I just don't understand the fascination.
