Walt Disney was the greatest creative genius of the 20th century. Firefly is boring, uninspired, derivative crap, and it deserved to be cancelled. ---

Entirely subjective, and I will never be convinced otherwise: Motorhead and Neil Young are incredibly talented, valid, and good, while Nickelback and (…can’t remember their name, those Arms Wide Open jackasses…) suck to unheard of degrees of sucktitude, and will never be worthy of my attention. I’m 100% correct about that. Anyone that disagrees is wrong. ---

The Three Stooges are funnier than the Marx Brothers. _Big Bang Theory_ is the most wretched atrocity ever to be foisted on an innocent public. Deep Purple’s _Who Do We Think We Are!_ is a better album than _Machine Head_. Mr. Pibb is better than Dr. Pepper. ---

> [@deltasigma](#): > > I don’t understand the chocolate fetish. Apparently it has drug-like affect on a lot of people and I’m envious of that. I’ve bought 80%+ cocoa solids Lindt chocolate and it’s very tasty but I don’t notice any particular psychotropic effects from it. I know it has PEA (phenethylamine) which a precursor to various chemicals and neurotransmitters, I think, and I don’t expect to get a buzz from it but I never notice feeling any different. I guess I just don’t have the right metabolism for it - which would definitely explain my strange response to other psychotropics like certain medications I suppose. I just like the way it tastes. ---

The bassoon is the most haunting of all musical instruments. Charlie Chaplin was funnier, more physically perfect in execution, and even more capable of capturing pathos, than Buster Keaton. In 500 years, Charles Schulz will be the only comic strip artist anyone can name. ---

> [@Roland\_Orzabal](#): > > _Office Space_ is a steaming pile of shit. For one thing, it’s not a comedy, it’s a heist movie with an occasional ham-fisted “joke”. For another, its creator had about as much knowledge of what makes corporate life farcical as the _Idiocracy_ guy did about what makes morons moronic (…what’s that you say? Aaah, it all makes sense now), meaning what few jokes were there — on a subject that should provide ample fodder for [decades of parody](http://www.dilbert.com) let alone 90 minutes worth of gags — fall flat on their face due to imbecilic setups. > > I grant that the printer scene makes a valiant attempt to redeem the film, but around the tenth “LOL the Indian guy is Indian and also Michael Bolton is not a very popular artist” joke, even that falls woefully short. I would say it _wouldn’t_ have worked but for the Stephen Root character, Milton (the mousy, put-upon guy who only wants his stapler and a little space to work). I still to this day can’t see birthday cake being divvied up without thinking _there’s a very bad cake-to-person ratio…_ ---

Ke$ha is the greatest singer of all time. CHiPs is the greatest TV show ever, and Beavis and Butt-head is the funniest. ---

> [@YoungKusher](#): > > No where in the title does it say you are provided immunity from other opinions on the same matter. And just to be clear, I’m not butt-hurt. I’m not offended. I am dumbfounded! I wouldn’t have said anything other than, “I disagree,” if you had said simply, “baseball is better than football.” But I felt obligated to address your audacious claims against football! I suppose it seems to be your way, detract from the opposition rather than simply advocate your own position. An inferior and counter-productive technique generally used by people who can’t support their own claims. Let’s just agree to disagree. Unfortunately, this isn’t the board for debates. The average footbal game features 11 minutes of action and over 100 commercials.

Michael Jordan is a sociopath. Craig Ehlo was fouled before Jordan took “The Shot”. The Cavs should’ve been up 3 at that point. Jeff Maier should’ve been called for fan interference during Red Sox/Yankees playoffs of 1996. The ball should’ve been called an out instead of a home run. The “Tuck Rule” game call was bogus. Brady fumbled because the ball was cold and slick due to the snow. ---
