I don’t know what else to say! What is way overrated to you that makes you sometimes feel weird for your different feelings about it?
Mine: Scotch, any and all sitcoms, laying out by a pool in Las Vegas in 120 degrees, So You Think You Can Dance?, Seinfeld,
Bunco, asparagus.

Texting. I really don’t get it. People do it like it’s an emergency, that’s all I see people do everywhere. Or going on Facebook on your smartphone. Jesus fucking Christ, the site isn’t that great. Can’t people wait until they get home? Not that it ruins my life, but I completely fail to see the appeal.
And cable TV. How the fuck can people sit through commercials for hours on end is beyond me.
@Symbeline : texting like it’s an emergency, that’s great haha. Maybe I’ll use that the next time I have to shame my students.
Gossip. Mindless chatter. It really does make me hate some very nice people =/
@bookish1 I’ll trade you some grits for a nice, juicy steak and a cruise!
What is a raised donut ? I’ve heard of glazed donuts.
@Symbeline This is how I get through commercials on cable TV. I record every show that I want to see, and watch it later so that I can fast-forward through the commercials. Or I can watch something on “on-demand” without commercials. Or I watch NetFlix. So I don’t understand – how do non-cable TV people do it?
DVD box sets of stuff I like.
Oh, so you are talking about TV and not just cable TV, right?
@picante I agree with convertables. There never seems to be a time when they are enjoyable. Always either too hot or too cold outside, or raining. Not to mention the wind tying your hair in knots. And the rag top always wears out before the car does.
I am sure they are lovely on a warm summer night, though. That is why I opted for a moon roof.
