I'm glad that's died.

It did?

Oh, it will resurrect I'm sure at some point.

Because I want to let everybody knows that Shakira is not a genius, and that she is not the best rock en español artist ever. She is not, not, not.

And I'd have to agree with you on that one.

Everyone knows it's Aterciopelados!

Certain people, like analytic and/or anal-retentive (not to mention internet-addicted) geeks such as myself, just like to bitch on the occasion. And most of the time, when we bitch, it's not like we truly, madly, deeply (no corny Savage Garden pun intended) feel what we're saying... we're just what you'd call casually bitching and expressing our opinions, and having fun in doing so, especially when we gather other people's opinions regarding the subject. I honestly don't see the problem.

And why do some so-called fans of an artist stick around if they're not fans of most, if not all, of what the artist does or puts out today? A lot of the time, it's because they're simply being objective and having faith in the artist, believing they can do better, moreso if they're a huge fan of the artist's work during his/her prime (such as with me and Prince).

Of course it is!

I agree with this. It is "ok" not to like an artist and say so. People shouldn't worry so much about "hurting" another's feelings for not agreeing with them. For example, I don't feel like I should always have to keep my mouth shut when I don't like an artist. It's just an opinion. But at least I try to explain WHY I might not like someone, and not just state something stupid like "They suck ass!" and leave it at that.

I do however think that when people start singling out certain people ALL the time for whoever (whomever? ) they happen to love, berating them for it, and just not letting it rest, that it gets a bit tired. (just speaking from experience here )

I used to bitch a lot more about artists I could not stand, but now I just tend to ignore threads about them instead. It's just a waste of time.

Then again, I never really was one to post much just to make fun of another's tastes. Except perhaps to laugh at oh, say, thesexofit for loving Joey Lawrence for example. I just can't help myself sometimes. It's only human.

minneapolisgenius said:

Yeah, I must admit: That's where I draw the line as well.

minneapolisgenius said:

Are you criticizing my standard response?

Hell y'all, sometimes it's just fun to watch rabid fans freak the fuck OUT b/c you've said something about their beloved idol

Dunno why people take some of this shit so seriously. At the end of the day everybody's got their 2 cents - drop your change & keep it movin'

CalhounSq said:

Yes. Yes I was.




Actually, I didn't think specifically about one particular orger, but now that you mention it.....



oh, but it's true that sometimes some "artists" really DO just suck ass, and that's all that can be said.

Why the hell shouldn't I click on them?

If it's an artist that I could take or leave or someone whose music I simply don't care for, I usually don't even click on the thread. However, if it's an artist that I truly can't stand, of course I'm going to voice an opinion. Duh....that's what you do when you don't like someone.....you talk about them.....and you talk about them really bad.
