Re: Overrated/Underrated......
I can't agree with you more on both of these. Lil Wayne makes me wanna rip my ears off. I used to be able to tolerate him but now I just turn the station anytime one of his songs come on.
Lupe has always been and always will be underrated. Asked one of my clients if he liked Lupe Fiasco and he responds "Man he not even a real gangsta". Of course being a "gangsta" has everything to do with your ability to rap right?
Overrated: The Heisman Trophy
How many times has the BEST player in the country actually won the Heisman? Not too often in my opinion. I know this has been said plenty of times but the Heisman should be called the "best QB, RB or WR on a top 5 team" award.
Underrated: A good night's sleep
When I actually get an adequate amount of sleep, I feel great. But I usually go to sleep way to late and wake up in the morning feeling misreable cause I have to get ready for work and wish I could get more sleep.SimWorld NBA 2K19 Fictional Draft Classes

Re: Overrated/Underrated......
I have to plead the 5th on the Heisman trophy. I'll get back to you next year.
I kind of disagree with you on a good night's sleep as well. Just because no matter if I sleep 5 hours or 9 hours I still feel like **** in the morning.
Overrated: The Wii- It's fun when it's new. But, once the new wears off it's losses all of it luster and becomes a dust collector. 95% of the games offered on the Wii are for kids, moms or are "party games" so, I don't see how anyone could rate it above the PS3 or 360.
Underrated: Coke Zero: It taste just like Coke without the Calories.

Overrated: Tim Tebow.
Underrated: Ferrets, they are without a doubt the coolest animals in the world. Even cooler if you got one who is part Mink.Comment

Re: Overrated/Underrated......
Disagree with both.
Tebow may be a bust in the NFL, but he had a great college run.
Never had a ferret, but a friend had one and it just kept getting lost.
Overrated: Blu-Ray. DVD movies look good enough.
Underrated: Survivor. Original and best reality show, still running strong.Comment

Re: Overrated/Underrated......
Yeah, I agree with you on the blu ray thing. I already have like 600 dvds and don't plan on making to blu ray unless I'm forced to. I can't really speak on Survivor because I've never seen it even after all the years that it's been on the air.
Overrated: Cable
Other than the espn stations and cartoon network, there's really no need for the 50 gazillion stations that I have. And really I don't need cartoon network either cause I just buy the dvds for all of the shows that I like.
Underrated: Domino's Pizza
I used to hate Domino's Pizza. My boy brought some over the other day and I was just soooooo good. Maybe it's because I was really hungry and had not eaten all day, but I know I ate like 5 slices. I may even get some when I get off of work today.SimWorld NBA 2K19 Fictional Draft Classes

Disagree about Coke Zero. I was with you for bout a year but now I can just taste too big of a difference. Ain't nothin like the real thing. I refer to Classic as Coke Red and Zero as Coke Black. just fyi

Re: Overrated/Underrated......
Agreed. With NetFlix and a built-in web browser the PS3 can completely replace Comcast or DirecTV. Although we do pay the $8 a month for local channels on Comcast, mainly because it makes the internet cheaper.

Re: Overrated/Underrated......
Agreed. I've heard from most unbiased people that the movies were garbage. And when I mean unbiased, I mean viewers who aren't females too busy getting soaked over Robert Pattinson and shirtless SharkBoy to realize what an awful movie that was.
Before all this rock bull****, Lil Wayne was my favorite rapper. If he goes back to The Carter, The Carter II formula, maybe I'll change this opinion. But that's probably just wishful thinking.
Lupe is SO underrated. BBPD was imo, 2nd to the BP3 and right ahead of Relaspe: Refill last year. It took me a while to vibe with him, because I used to think he was just another tool skater dude.

Re: Overrated/Underrated......
Apparently Domino's changed their pizza recipe recently to make the sauce sweeter, the crust garlic-infused, and to change the cheese slightly. So that might be why you liked it so much more recently.
Agreed totally on both... I really like BBCA's cooking shows especially.. much better than the American counterparts.
Overrated: White meat chicken -- it's the go-to food for most of America and is basically tasteless unless it's fried or loaded to the gills with spices (i.e. chicken curry)... Dark meat chicken at least has some taste to it, but people who eat white meat chicken only or eat chicken for health reasons are ****ing up. Pork tenderloin is just as healthy as white meat chicken but actually has its own taste. Eat vegetarian if you want to eat "healthy", skip the genetically-modified super-breasted chickens that comprise 95% of the poultry production in the United States.
Underrated: Lamb... nobody ever eats lamb unless they're at a Greek or Middle Eastern restaurant. Yeah it has more saturated fat than beef, but if you want TASTE, go with lamb for the best burgers you've ever had. And the vast majority of lamb is produced in America (the rest is generally from New Zealand), so your carbon/locavore footprint is a little smaller than buying most fish, pork, beef, and chicken... Also, lamb isn't a big enough food product in the US to be factory farmed to the extent that other meats are, so you're more likely to have humanely-raised and healthy lamb than basically any other meat.Last edited by Stumbleweed; 01-04-2010, 07:05 PM.Send your Midnight Release weirdo pics/videos to my new website: http://www.peopleofmidnightreleases.com!Comment

Re: Overrated/Underrated......
Damn I'm a little behind, I can't agree with cable being overrated I love all my channels, well not all, but most of the hd ones.
Dominoes- That's what I though Sapp when I first tried Dominoes!! I though it sucked, then my friend ordered some the other day for 5 bucks, so I tried it again, and damn it was actually good, you can tell they changed their recipe.
A good night sleep- is very underrated, it's so important to get a good night's rest, and yet I never do thanks to Cable,girls, and PS3 lol.
Just for the record I don't hate Weezy, He's got some real fire, but at the same time he's mainstream now, and he's lost his roots and luster. And it annoys me how many people play his songs, or tell me he's the best ever, even "he thinks he is", and in reality he's not even in the top 20. Lupe did a song called "Yoga Flame", which has the same beat as Weezy's "Fireman" and if you really listen to it open minded, Lupe kills Weezy's version. Ouch...
Selflessness and intelligence really are vastly underrated, which is sad. Good call Ehh
Haha I can't comment on your post Stumble, I'm not really a eating guru or have that much knowledge about the food I eat, which in hindsight isn't really that good, come to think about it.
Overrated- Acting hard and tough, yet most people act that way to hide their insecurity.
Underrated- Being real, everything is politically correct nowaday's.Comment

Re: Overrated/Underrated......
WOW. You are so on point with it, it's ridiculous. Wayne's all commercial and mainstream now, and he's appealing to a certain demographic. I'm sure most of you could figure out what demographic that would be. (Hint: All this rock bs)
Wayne has creative flow, but he can't tell a story like Em or create those type of metaphors you don't catch by listening to the song once or twice like Lupe. He has those cute little one liners like, "B**** I'm the bomb like tick, tick." I hate how he has to change the pronunciation of words to get it to rhyme. And for some reason, **** like this makes him so popular. But keep in mind that the same people claiming Wayne is the best think rappers like mainstream Gucci Mane are good. You play "Yoga Flame" at most parties, and people will get excited thinking it's "Fireman", then they're like, "wtf is this?!" But play "Got Money" or "Wasted", and people are going to lose their mind.
Yeah, I thought Fireman (and The Drought is Over 4) was the last of Wayne's best work, but Lupe murdered Yoga Flame.

Re: Overrated/Underrated......
That's exactly right, Weezy appeals to the young people, I hear it all the time; "Man he goes hard" when all he does is create punch lines, which anyone can do if they really tried. Society tells the young people he's the best. Weezy is God, He's the hardest rapper in the game. And of course you reel in the young people with his stuff. I tmakes me sick to my stomach I knew a girl that named her son Carter, Apparently Weezy is already a LegendWOW. You are so on point with it, it's ridiculous.

Lil Wayne is what every other rapper is right now, sick beats to get you pumped, all style no substance, most songs get OT or just throw in some punch lines. Lupe is a thinker, a real dude, he cares about the world and what goes on around him, and to learn. Every other rapper is about the bling, the money, the hoes. All style, no substance.
This is getting a little long and OT, so I am going to wrap it up. Problem is people look up to Weezy and these rappers now a day's, and it influences alot of their actions. And that's comical, because the more you listen to the lyrics in all honesty, it ain't real good, nothing really positive in there, except "get me me" Unfortunately that's what it is. I'm no gonna lie I listen to Weezy to get me pumped up to play ball or work out, but lyrically all style no substance.Comment
