Sarah Palin. Stupid and an enormous ego. ---

> [@CT\_Damsel](#): > > [Highly Sensitive People](http://www.webmd.com/balance/features/are-you-too-sensitive) The woman “Mary” described in the article does not strike me as having any kind of disorder other than being a passive-aggressive manipulator. ISTM, from my casual reading, that the only reason “Mary” was friends with the essayist was because she wanted an “in” at 60 Minutes. Any way, getting back on topic: the Black-Eyed Peas Gwen Stefani everyone on any of the “Real Housewives” shows or the “A-List” (my apt.-mate watches ALL of those shows, and I have to leave the room when the TV is on. Ahh!) ---

UGH! (and this goes for the Kardashians, double.) Nancy Grace and that shrieky Latina woman, I forget her name, that’s on before her. ---

Agreeing with Nick Cage and Sarah Palin. And just about anyone who has a show on E! (except Joel McHale on The Soup, because The Soup is awesome). Whenever I see commercials for these shows, my response is always “who the fuck are you and why are you on my TV?” Actually, that’s why I like The Soup. It gives me a reason not to watch trashy TV. ---

> [@IvoryTowerDenizen](#): > > Joan Cusack. She spoils for me just about any movie she’s in. > > Not sure why, but I just can’t stand her. +1 I’m convinced that there is a clause in John Cusack’s film contracts which stipulates a role (doesn’t matter how big or small) for her. While I guess it is nice that he’s looking out for / taking care of his sister, she is still one of the most talentless actresses out there. ---

> [@Maiira](#): > > Agreeing with Nick Cage and Sarah Palin. Sarah Palin’s a given. But I used to like Nicholas Cage. His earlier work was phenomenal – _Valley Girl_, _Rumblefish_, _Moonstruck_. Perfect in _Leaving Las Vegas_.Then he decided to branch off into this indy artiste shtick that smply falls flat. ---

There are days when I would happily blow up all television transmitters _Fight Club_-style, just to rid the world of reality television, insipid commentary and ADHD news channels. The sacrifice of a few good shows would be worth it. But then the stupidity would just find a home somewhere else and it would start all over again, so instead I resign myself to the decline of Western civilization. ---

Martin Lawrence. Perhaps it’s a cultural thing, but I find the movies he does to be low-brow, sophomoric, full of tired jokes, and not at all funny. ETA: His stand-up isn’t funny, either. ---

The new Carrot Top (post-steroids). Gingers should not be that brown. Humans should not be that obnoxiously muscled or botoxed (what are you compensating for, dude?). I never liked his comedy act per se, but even as obnoxious as the old normal white Carrot Top was, the new brown bulging skybrowed Carrot Top is way, way worse. ---
