    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.

    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
