  • People or Things that Recieve too much Criticism

    A lot of things and people are criticized much more than they should be, and it really bothers me. It has become kind of cliche to crticize them, and it is really annoying.

    Here are some of them.

    Poland's army - It is not Poland's fault that it is a flat indefensible piece of land situated between the two (historically) most aggressive European countries.

    Britney Spears - It's really annoying that it's become "cool" for pre-teenage and teenage girls to criticize her. Just because her target audience is the 7-12 crowd doesn't mean that girls who want to act all grown-up should criticize her. (Especially the ones that listen to "Avril." At least Britney isn't a trend-hopper.)

    Modern Art - Yea, some stuff is unreasonable, but it annoys me when some people say "I can do that" when they see a work of art like this one (by Jackson Pollock)



    Yea, sure you can. If you made one like it, and then someone went around asking people which one was better, everyone would say the Pollock one was much better. It is simply much more cool-looking than one that a non-artist could make.

    I'll think of more later.

        Modern art might be better than what I could make, but I sure wouldn't hang a canvas that looked like paint spilled all over it on my wall.

            Britney Spears receives TOO MUCH criticism?!

            Are you mad?

            If I said one nasty thing about that no-talent skank every minute for the rest of my natural life, that would not even begin to approach "too much" criticism.

            Mayhaps she'll be wiped from the earth by bubonic plague or some other deliciously vile disease.

              It amuses me that when a piece of modern art like Pollock's gets sold for millions of dollars people always say "That's such a load of crap, I mean ... I COULD DO THAT!"

              Well - why the hell don't they? If I could produce art that would sell for millions of dollars then I'd stop *****ing and get painting.

                I hate to say it but it has become very passe to be anti-Bush. I dislike many of his policies but many of the lefties have been displaying an irrational hatred that borders upon the type the rightest had for Clinton.

                Can't they both just take a chill pill?

                    No, no. Plagues spread. And infect people. And that sort of thing.
                    Bush is something else. But a disaster nevertheless.

                      Me for defending what I stand for.
                      For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

                              I have a lot of respect for Britney because she puts up with the pseudo-punk people who badmouth her all the time. She's above that. She's not necessarily that talented for a singer (although my annoyance with the "I can do that" people still applies) but she does have the inegrity that the "anti-britneys" don't.

                              Odin and Oerdin in an argument is funny.
