Dr Strangelovecraft, at first I read that as "CROATIAN!"

Actually the best sweet tea in the South is made by this Mexican restaurant I go to like three times a week. It's a scientific fact.
Big Fish was filmed in and around my hometown. Most of the actors (with the exception of Steve Buscemi) were kind of douchebags to the people around town. The only enjoyment I got out of that movie was seeing people I knew as extras and locations I was familiar with being shown in a movie. other than that, the…
God dammit Anna Paquin needs to be hit in the face for her godawful Southern "accent". I wish people would quit fucking casting her as Southern characters, her voice as Rogue made me cringe in every scene of X-men. Other than that one horrible flaw, I think she's a pretty good actress.
Hello Dali, I'm surprised he didn't get punched in the face. Maybe it was our fake politeness that protected him. I think it's pretty funny when people come here from the North and are completely condescending to Southerners and everyone is so polite in return, and as soon as they leave the room the conversation…
Wow, after all the derogatory comments about the South I've read on these comment boards, it's surprising to find that I'm not the only Southerner here.
Yeah, it's just like saying in that you don't like the Beatles in that it's so universally beloved that expressing your personal negative opinion about it is seen as blasphemy by those who can't understand why someone wouldn't like something so sacred to them. (I love the Beatles, by the way.) And guess what? It's…
Lurker, I don't "hate" Seinfeld (some parts are pretty funny to me), but like I said before, I don't like its overwhelming unpleasantness. But who the fuck said anything about not liking Seinfeld because it's popular?
Oh God, I went through that whiny emo Smashing Pumpkins phase too! I was 12-13, and if I could travel back in time I'd slap my tween self in the face. Sometime before I hit 14, I woke up one morning and suddenly could not stand to listen to one more second of that asshole's nasally voice.
My fiance watches Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm on DVD all the time, and while I can take small doses of both, it's not funny to me after a few minutes and I just end up having to leave the room. I just get tired of constantly seeing people thrown into miserable, awkward situations. The whole Larry David style…
For me it's Natalie Portman, Jude Law, Kirsten Dunst, and especially Ellen Page. Ellen Page just seems so fucking smug all of the time, both onscreen and off. As for Natalie portman, I think she's a pretty good actress, she just also seems to me to be very smug and self satisfied.
I never saw it so much as "mocking" as "a seasoned music business pro telling it like it is to people with overly inflated egos".
Santos, over here we call that a "sausage in the mouth". Or, actually, just a "sausage".
I think he's a great songwriter, but his singing sometimes gets on my nerves, and whenever he whips out that fucking abrasive harmonica I instantly change the track.
I WON'T GO WHEELCHAIR!!
Nice to see some love for Sports Night. I have such fond memories of that show. I wonder if it's out on dvd?
Actually my post was directed mainly toward the douchiness of idiotking's comment, but I'm glad you don't mind me not liking them. And yeah, they're good musicians with an original sound, but it's just a sound that I (and many many other people) do not like.
They're a band full of really excellent musicians who, in my opinion, sound fucking terrible together. Is it really so hard to swallow the fact that a lot of people just don't like DMB because of the way they SOUND? Sure, their fans are mostly douchebags, but it doesn't have any influence over the fact that the…
