1. Justin Timbertwit - you've had your 15 minutes, now crawl back into whatever hole in the ground you came from and stay there, you stupid, backstabbing, attention-seeking slut.
2. The NME - all you do is big up shit bands and start either ignoring or slagging off good ones after supporting them for a while. Go the way of Select and fuck off if you're going to get on like that!
3. The Strokes - I'm so fed up with you it's not funny. You're a bunch of total fakers who're only in the music game for the money. I've got a fiver on you splitting by mid-November and if it happens, I'll throw a party. (Note: all NOOL'ers are invited!)

Underrated:

1. Italy - one of the most beautiful places to go for a holiday.
2. Galaxy chocolate - if there's chocolate in heaven, I want it to taste like this. Mmmmm. *licks lips*
3. New Order - forgotten by most of the population of the UK, yet still relevant today.

RE: The Strokes. Shelley you must be the only person who doesnt know they are spoilt rich kids who are only in it for the music!

I happen to agree w/ you on all accounts except for the 'Freedom' Toast; when it's fresh, it can't be beat. Also the stuffed 'freedom' toast at IHOP is tasty.

It's always amusing to see the local frat boys with their shopping carts full of those cheap things, no doubt ready to charm their dates for their evening with their sophisticated tastes. For the record, I do like those thing though.....:)

Between my roommates and I we have Digiornos, some generic Costtco french bread pizza, some mini cheese pizzas from Trader Joe's, umm some pepperoni pizza hot pockets, and then the rest of the freezer has frozen Mexican food and other flavors of Hot Pockets.

As lousy as they are, they cook fast, there's very little chance of food poisoning, and once you get over the faint aroma of death, it kinda grows on you :barf: :D

Nah, they're pretty good for el cheapo pizza, when you're not wealthy enough to afford a Dominoes or Little Caesar's

BTW, not to get :topic: , but the worst pizza I ever had was from this place right next door to W-D. It tasted like you'd expect generic-brand tomato paste (not sauce, past) to, and the slices were thinner than the carboard box it came in. That place didn't last......

What's a W-D? Is that Winn-Dixie?

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. Please explain. Is it a BM reference?

Ha ha! Very good, very funny!

overrated: The Critic underrated: Duckman

Nice avatar on your part Tristan, I seriously thought about using him instead of MXC, and the blurb below would've said "What the HELL you starin' at" . Another seriously funny show that makes it worth the while when I actually get up early on Saturday and see that it's playing on Comedy Central (sometimes, at any rate). I find myself repeating this exchange between Bernice and Duckman "Duckman, I feel like a new woman" "So do I Bernice, but I'm about 10 bucks short"

Don't know if you've seen it, but there is another petition at the petitiononline site where a quite a number of fans have opined that this show needs to be released on DVD. Number 3261 here......

I want Duckman!!!!!!

I wasn't aware of the petition, thanks for the link.

to throw everyone off in their overrated/underrated decisions:
