Oh, and here’s one more:
Civilization: Call to Power is far more engaging and playable than Sid’s Alpha Centauri.

I think the Lord of the Rings series is long and boring.
I thought Napoleon Dynamite was funny, I don’t care what anyone else says.
Hayden Christensen did the last half of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith really, really well.
Sum 41 and all bands like it suck ass.
Classic or not I don’t think *To Kill a Mockingbird * was that great.
Dandelion Wine was the most boring and utterly pointless book I have read.
Brad Pitt isn’t good looking at all.
I’ll add more to that: Ray Bradbury as a whole isn’t even a very good writer. The second half of Farenheit 451 was rather boring and stupid.
Bob/Jack/Dave FM is the best radio station format EVER!
Babies are ugly.
Children are annoying and sticky.
The Beatles are great, but not as “OMG!!!11eleven” as people make them out to be.
It shows that Charles Dickens was paid by the word.
Emo is dreck.
Playing lead guitar isn’t the be all and end all of being in a band. Neither is being a lead singer.
Jennifer Aniston’s nose bothers me.
Geeks are hotter than pretty muscle men.
Alex Trebek looked better with his moustache.
I don’t like Ken Jennings.
Most of what passes for internet humor (like Flash movies and stuff) sucks.
Anime sucks. End of story.
American commercial television is better than most movies.
Bob Dylan has a haunting evocative beautiful voice.
Bob Dylan has a voice only a mother could love. He’s been phoning in his shows now for about 20 years so the only "haunting’ element might be the ghost of what he once was.
Most current fiction is pointless, unquotable self-abuse, written for people who would be better off spending the money on psychotherapy.
Most science fiction is comic books in search of art, written for people who feel out of place in reality but lack the imagination to create their own.
Most so-called indie rock is that in lack-of-major-label-affiliation only.
Not only is 90% of everything crap, 89% of it isn’t even honest crap.
I’m starting to think that Jesus had mental health issues. More later if I ever pick up and understand a bible again. Don’t hold your breath.
One more: Stargate SG1 is better than any of the new Star Treks.
This really is the Kali Yuga.
With Neil Patrick Harris? Me too.
Homestarrunner / Strongbad is one of the least funniest things on the web.
Current or original? I think she looks better post-rhinoplasty.

I could, and, God willing, will, happily go the rest of my life without hearing another song by Bob Marley, Jimmy Buffet or the Grateful Dead.
Got some more!
Alternative medicine doesn’t work, but the placebo effect is the most powerful force known to mankind.
Avebury is much more impressive than Stonehenge.
Virginia Woolf is often practically unreadable, and Bloomsbury in general is massively overrated.
Come to that, the Modernists were a load of idiotic fascists too; the Victorians were far more open to change and social improvement.
Ewan McGregor, Hugh Grant, Tobey Maguire, and Benicio Del Toroare painfully ugly, and I wouldn’t touch them even if they were my only means of fulfilling some latent, as of yet undiscovered, fantasy about sleeping with someone, anyone, famous. (and Hugh is a terrible actor to boot)
The phrase “Literary Fiction” means “has a lot of lyrical descriptions of setting that take up endless pages so we can see the author’s extensive vocabulary and skill at creating needlessly complex sentences…at the sacrifice of things like character development and plot.” Writing books ought to be about storytelling not smug intellectual masturbation.
There are a lot of talentless people who have managed to get recording contracts. Why would I ever watch a TV show featuring people who aren’t even as talented?
Boogeyman is the scariest movie to come out in the last five years.
Both.
Well, I’m not sure. Whatever type of nose she had while she was on Friends.
The Pyramids at Giza, and a mess of other Egyptian stuff is not especially large nor especially impressive. A modern shopping mall has a larger footprint. A modern office block has more height.
Sure, I understand it before the discovery on the rainbow and so had only crude stone power tools, but still, it is not that visually impressive. Sorry.
– I also think that Starship Troopers was a good movie (on many levels.) I think we can officially call it non-heretical now
– Alien:Resurrection was the second best movie of the series, after Aliens.
– I never liked Semisonic. Back in the day, I never liked Trip Shakespeare.
– Stone Temple Pilots songs work on many levels.
– The Promise Rings last album is a masterpiece.
– Ditto Second Coming by the Stone Roses (oddly enough both have a retro-70s sound to them.)
– Ummagumma doesn’t suck (but it is Pink Floyd’s worst album…hmmm, come to think of it, that would be Saucerful of Secrets :o)
– Sisters of Mercy are Goth. (although not quite As Fuck.)
– The Beatles weren’t better songwriters than they were singers. Their playing AND songs don’t work when they do covers, or when someone covers them. I have never heard a good Beatles cover. (Unlike some entries here, I find the opinion that they were mainly good songwriters the “Common Wisdom.”)
