Do you despise overrated things (in general)?
Most of the time I do.
I consider overrated subjective, so if I deem something overrated I dont like it.
>>> Sometimes..
some people are overrated..and yes i tend to despise them....:mad:
I try not to, cause I think that's retarded. Usually, though, things being overrated only affects my opinion of it if I already dislike it. I will start hating it more. :monster:
I don't enjoy something less because some people enjoy it more than I do, no. Of course, if I think that something is overrated, then by definition I won't like it as much as most others do.
I use that on a case by case basis.
Only if there's better underappreciated things that don't get credit because people are more concerned with what's "in". E.g. Ipods :p Hmm, can't think what else right now.
I usually don't think of them.
Fortunately, outside of that one thread, Dr Aum speaks with the same voice as Mr. MILF. :jess:Quote:

Not really. I just like it as much as I like it.:greenie:
I'm easily amused. Therefore, most things that are overrated end up being overrated by me. And so I despise very little, and almost nothing that is overrated.
i tend to buy into the overratedness...and then am underwhelmed...which irks me...but it's my own fault for being drawn in in the first place.
if I didn't like it to begin with, hearing about it all the time would make me hate it more due to being annoyed by it. If I did like it and it garnered more attention than it deserves, I just disagree. xD Just the way I am.
I like what I like and don't like what I don't like. I have no idea what something is over/underrated until some stranger comes up and tells me.
If I don't like something, immense popularity can drag me from disliking it to out and out hating it. Take Brokeback Mountain for example. If nobody had heard about it, I just wouldn't have liked it. However, people worship it, and that makes me wish Anus (or whatever his name was) had died violently.
I don't really care what other people think about anything. So.. no, I don't despise overrated things.
not really. i tend to like them, not like them, or not care at all.
I won't let popularity influence my opinions. If I like it, I like it. It's pretty simple. I couldn't really care less if Frank & Elsa didn't like what I like. If Pamela Anderson made a song that I liked, I wouldn't despise it just because she made it.
When it comes to stuff I personally find overrated, then I obviously don't like it, which is why I found it overrated in the first place.
But doesn't overrated really count as opinion anyway that is slowly leaning towards "despisition"?
Haha. Is despisition even a word? xD
No,I don't hate things because they are over-rated. That is stupid. So is the whole idea of something being over-rated. People only think things are over-rated because lots of other people like them, but they don't, or they don't like them as much. It is stupid. I hear all the time things like 'Oh my god, Greenday is so over-rated and gay.' Wow. Mature. You don't like it, and a lot of other people do, therefore it is over-rated. Stupidest thing I have ever heard of. Aside from those three other things. But yeah. Over-ratedness does not exist in my mind.
The only overrated thing I hate is Paris Hilton, but she's just dumb that's enough reason right there. I tend not to think anything as "overrated". I just think a lot of people like it or dislike it. I don't like people who judge things by it's popularity. If they like it because everyone likes, I don't like that. If they hate it because everyone likes, I don't like that. But then I find those who hate hypocrites because they end up like many others in being overrated poeple that hate it. All in all they just need to get over themselves
A couple of things. But I had a little moan about them in EoEo and I'm happy now
The Pacific Sea is overrated.Quote:
