Ewwww, clinical psychologists are totally......not rated by anyone. Huh? 
Star Wars was over-rated. Can't stand any of the films.

The movie "no country for old men" WHY did people like that so much?
I think Jessica Alba is over rated. Angelina Jolie too.
Oh, and SSRIs.

Jessica Alba is NOT overrated. Sorry. We're going to have a whole litter of babies together, and nothing is going to stop us!!! (Except maybe the police and a restraining order)
I'd settle for Charlize Theron though.

Friends (the show, not real life friends...)
Citizen Kane - yeah, I know it's innovative and all, but it also puts me to sleep
Cell phones/Blackberries/(gasp)iPhone - seriously...are you THAT important that you need to be connected 24/7? Unless you're a doctor or in law enforcement, the answer is no. Whatever seems sooooo pressing that you must interrupt your dinner or whatever to answer it can wait until the morning. Put the email down and, I don't know, interact with your friends/family!! [/rant]
Basketball (especially the NBA) - Oh look, see the tall guy dunk. Again. Ad nauseum. Yawn.
Soccer (excuse me...football) - He's got the ball! He's moving across the midline! He's almost to the penalty area! Oh..he lost the ball. (repeat again, and again, and again until...) He shoots! Way over the net. Goal kick. Then go back to the beginning. I'm sorry, but when you can count the number of SHOTS on one hand, the sport sucks. IMO, the only thing this sport was good for was that the Canadians saw it, made several improvements, and invented hockey.
Literature and those who teach it - not reading mind you, but high-filutant "why did the author make her dress red?" literature that English PhDs feel the need to analyze for us uninformed dullards. If I want to read Jane Eyre, let me. Let me make my own conclusions. Don't make me read it and then tell me what it all means.

I hate to put a damper on an otherwise amusing thread . . . but you believe that Hitler had a greater influence after his death than during his lifetime? And you presumably feel the same way about Stalin? I don't even know how to respond to that . . .
Agreed.
Nope, I can't stand it either.
For some reason though, I do like Curb Your Enthusiasm. Weird.
HAHA, It's funny cause its true.
They should really rename it "Watching paint dry".
Whatever, you're just jealous because you don't have an iPhone.
Ok, I'm with you on that one. Throw in American football too though. With the exception of hockey, all sports are complete and utter bollocks. If you want to go outside and play football then great. Go get some exercise. But sitting on the couch and watching other people play a game? Waste of time. Being a 'fan'? Having a 'team'? Mornic. The guys in my office talk incessantly about sports, like it's the only thing they care about, and it drives me completely mad. Get a life!!
For movies Gladiator (because it sucks) and Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (because it wasn't anything like the book) immediately come to mind.
All Rap is overrated
The music is stupid.
"To the window.... to the wall" or "lean back lean back" or "shake it like a saltsaker" they say the stupidest things over and over again, and yeah people may like it but it's not going to change the music industry

Soccer (someone poke me if I doze off, okay?)
Rugby (*snore*)
Tennis (zzzzz ::huh? wh'appen?:: zzzzz)
Cricket (now completely comatose - I've managed to fall asleep whilst PLAYING Cricket. Watching it is instant coma).
And no, I do not dislike team sports, I just dislike OUR team sports here in good ol' Blighty. Gimme NFL or Ice Hockey and I'll pay attention =]

I'm with you there. Take the same 3-4 electronic beats and mix them up, two or at best three chords, and some inane lyrics and you have your average rap song.
Perhaps...I do have a cell phone though and I hate it. And I'd much rather have an iPod Touch than an iPhone anyway (I don't have either because a) I can't afford it right now and b) I already have the aforementioned cell phone and an iPod).
Ahh, see, I'm definitely a fan of American football. I don't mind people who get into sports, as long as they aren't a**holes about it. And it's far more exciting than 99% of the other stuff on TV, so if I'm going to plunk my butt down in front of a screen for a while, I'd rather watch sports than the reality show du jour.
