I hate slapstick comedy, it is so boring, as bad as a comedian who thinks every other word in his/her routing has to be racey.

I only like Born in the USA and Pink Cadillac, was never into his music.

I saw him at Fenway Park years ago; one of the first rock concerts Fenway allowed, hard to get tickets, my Fiance, later ex DH got the tickets.

I can get into the spirit of it. It's just silly fun.

I don't care for any of the talk shows, but The View is the worst.

read & enjoyed 1984--the film was amazing as well

springsteen is not really a great " live " performer--much better to hear his work from the studio/cd

love zep and the beatles and have always loved the only other group that can equal/eclipse them--the beach boys

have never quite understood the madness surrounding all the harry potter series--for me, just a way overdone fairytale/kid's story

But Stevie Nicks and Carole King are on my can't sing worth a damn list, too!
(Carole...you're a great song writer! Give them to James Taylor to sing, and shut up already!)
Just my humble, unpopular opinion!

I feel that way about Willie Nelson. He writes good songs but someone else needs to sing it. He sings like he has a clothes pin on his nose.

born and raised in austin--heard willie/waylon for years--lord--for some reason my mother loved " blue eyes cryin' in the rain " and would play it over and over at times-- after two or three hearings was ready to break furniture/run through doors, etc.--he's a good writer/arranger but he IS NOT a singer--just like SRV, willie's strong suit has never been vocals

If I had to choose between watching Seinfeld and watching Friends...I might smash the TV.

Well, that's just wrong. The obvious choice is Friends - just in case you ever find yourself in that situation.
Seinfeld is clearly better written and more true to life than Friends. Who do you think you are?????

I don't know how many times I have to say this - I do not like my entertainment to be too realistic. There is too much reality in life.

And I LIKE Seinfeld, I would just never choose it over Friends.

Bruce Springsteen - I could take him or leave him.

And I HATE listening to Willie Nelson. Don't know why that connected for me in the loose association way.

I hate remakes of movies where the new director or writers try to "improve" things. If it needs to be improved, why is it worthy of a remake?

I also hated the re-releases of Star Wars Episodes IV, V, and VI after George Lucas "improved" them.

More like the vapors! And since I'm in my pj's, I can't clutch my pearls...

I love "Sara," by Stevie Nicks. Carole King just got inducted into the Kennedy Center. wink

Springsteen is a great musician.

A number of years back atbthe Grammys or some other awards show, an "all star" line up was supposed to sing don't stop believing. I can't remember them all, but Elton John was one, sting, lady gaga, Aretha, I think.

Anyway, most of them didn't even know the damn words. Springsteen came onstage and saved their butt--he played and sang it while they were up there mumbling through.

I love that song! Willie is not one of my favorite artists but I like him.

I pretty much can't stand anything playing on pop radio.

I don't know. DD listens to all the pop hits. I think there are a lot of great musicians like Sam Smith, Bruno Mars and on and on.

I'm not big on pop music either.

My apologies. I was attempting to be tongue-in-cheek on the assumption that "BARF!!!!!" was your real feelings on the movie, not that you knew "Barf" was a character.

I do know people that think "pray to the porcelain god" type of "BARF!!!!!" when that movie is mentioned.
