I detest pop music also… but just a little word of advice… If you’re going to complain about something, try using proper grammar. “Destroy”, not Distroy, Capitalize your I’s, Yes, I know, its hard to believe, but there IS an “e” at the end of “please”, And remember, punctualization(wrong word, oh well) is your friend. 🙂 ---

**kplmonkeypants** , sweetie, the only point that comes across when you _don’t_ use proper gramm **a** r and spelling and when you use “umm” as every other word in your sentences (I mean, you’re typing, for goodness’ sakes, you don’t need to use pause fillers), at least on this board, is that you’re lazy and stupid. Not a good impression to give, really. People tend to disregard people who make no effort to make their posts coherent English. And as for the OP… guess what, a whole lot of people actually _like_ pop music. It’s “pop” music because it’s **pop** ular. So if you don’t like it, that’s your opinion, and nobody’s forcing you to listen to it. If that’s all that’s on the radio, then don’t listen to the damn radio, turn it off, play a CD of something you do like. Go outside and get some fresh air or something. So quit yer whining, it’s not like anybody’s duct-taping you to a chair and playing O-Town at volume 11 in your ears. ---

Well, that’s what happens when you listen to the radio: you hear bad music. Turn it off and put in one of your own tapes or CDs. ---

Semi-literate posters, what the fuck? I think they should be called “Roasters” because they deserve to be broiled in their own pit threads. Wow their language makes them seem like they have no brain and very very moronic. Could someone please destroy these nitwits and make the bleeding of my eyes stop? ---

But your sig is a Godsmack song, man! Not only that, but a Godsmack song that was in that movie! You know, the one with the wrestler. Whatever. You’re not allowed to complain about pop music unless your CD collection is composed of bands that no one except you has heard of. Kids these days, what are they thinking! And there’s nothing wrong with being effeminate. Yum, effeminate boys in make up rock my world. :wally :smack: :dubious: [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/pop-music/165724.md?page=2)
