Re: Things That Are Overrated
How can the Olson twins be overrated? Everyone* despises them.

So you're a mormon, or something?
I bet you're very bored? Although you're probably very stupid as you have no quals, so it's harder to be bored, if you're stupid.
Me? I like smart lezzas who are up for getting hammered and having a one off hetroshag.

they, along with razorlight and a few others, represent some hyped yet good bands from a period of hyped but utter shit bands. I'd say it would be a more reasonable comment generally if the original comment was Arists of 90+, but its still true on balance for the smaller period.

THEN THEY ARE BI SEXUALS.....
When will people learn to differentiate bi sexual women from true lesbians.
Trust me true lesbians are overrated(they are usually total mental **** ups who will not relate well to someone of the opposite gender or will not relate well to society in general).
As for Qualifications being overrated, I'm referring to the fact that many degree's and Higher National Diploma's out there in the UK at least are total fudge courses that lead to sweet FA career wise and you would of done better working the two years and working up from scratch etc.
Anyway this is about OVERRATEDNESS
I didn't say they weren't good I'm just saying todays society worships them too much with hype.
For instance alcohol is ok but it isn't the be all and end all of your social life.
Nor is clubbing in fact there are plenty other things just as good......
Learn to INTERPRET.

Lesbians are overrated cause people are always thinking of bisexuals when they think lesbian.
Gambling is overrated cause the house wins..... and it also a bit of a statement on society imo.
Alcohol is overrated, too much hype and focus around it, at most it can be a catalyst but it is not like essential especially if you aren't a ****ing pleb that needs to be drunk to be interesting.

We are talking about overrating, anything since 2003 has been praised as the new beatles and bigger than jesus, good AND bad bands.
They then proceed to get overplayed at an obsessive compulsive level of airplay until you want to shoot every mother****er in the god damn band.
