I don't want to talk about someone's mother. I mainly just wanted to stick up for Napolean Dynamite. I actually am impressed by his family's choices. My parents never have and never would watch any of that stuff. Sorry, Matt. But you are still wrong about Napolean Dynamite.

Oasis. First album "Hey, this is pretty damn fun!", second album "Some of this still rocks out pretty well", thereafter "I want my money back!" on down to the point now where I actively hate them and even use them as an all-purpose excuse for holding the U.K. in contempt when such an excuse is needed.
