A fair to average actor who made 3 movies then fatally wrecked his car. One of the original causes of "the deader he gets, the better he was" myth.
Forever young.

Live fast, die young, leave a pretty corpse.

Rebel Without a Cause is pretty damn good but I think his legacy is mostly about just how good he would’ve been had he been alive longer.

I'm not sure that is considered overrated as opposed to simply fkn annoying. I hate morning people. I get up at 6 am for work and prefer not to speak for a couple of hours. My wife is ALWAYS SINGING something while getting ready for work, and it bugs the shit out of me, but I know what battles to pick. People who start right in at work before I even get to my office deserve to be punched. I need to ease into the morning, or I'm stressed out and pissed the rest of the day.
You’re going to love retirement.

Woke up this morning cup of coffee in hand turn on tv to watch my morning sports talk show.

And realized oh it’s Sunday.

Life is like VH’s Beautiful Girls lyrics.

Cell phones/mobile devices, yes they are convenient for a lot of things, but I don't get people (like my wife and daughters.....) who are glued to them 24/7.

Whether it be the films or the books, ya'll are some pretentious asshats when it comes to Hobbits.

People not from the southern states or black using the word y'all

People love saying this word but it sounds awful if you are not from the southern states/black. Stop saying it!

It comes from the internet. I hate it, too. Dumb little white girls think they sound fierce when they throw out some y’alls because they saw some black people on Twitter do it. Awful.

James Dean would've ended up with a Jefferson, not a Peg Bundy.

SAME!
My BFF and her daughter moved to Texas a few years ago.
My daughter and I met them for a New Orleans vacation in 2021, and both of them were y'all this and y'all that, the whole time. They had been in TX for about 5 minutes at that point.
I speak to them on the phone regularly, neither one of the say "y'all" ever.
They are both white, SoCal born and raised.
When I visit them in TX, there is none of that, no Southern accent at all.
Super weird!

Yeah, but I guess it could become part of the lexicon. Like people who say "LOL" or "OMG" or shit like that.

As I said in another thread, bitching about too many people filming at shows is overrated.

I love good quality videos of live shows on youtube way more than I dislike seeing screens up everywhere.

Nothing wrong with that. I just don't get Crashdiet, which is probably the biggest of the Swedish cosplay bands. To me, they look stupid, they sound fake, and everything about them just goes right over my head. But people absolutely love them.

I have seen Sebastian 5 times over the years! Ton of funny bits. The older stuff is better. The last show was kind of so so. I just love all the Italian stuff because I can relate to that with my family. I will see him again in November.

Dice, as in Andrew Clay. I never thought the guy was remotely funny. He was a foul mouthed third generation ripoff/caricature of a 50's greaser by way of Arthur Fonzarelli and Danny Zuko. I didn't get it when I was 17 and I don't get it now when guys like Bill Burr give him so much love. Everything I've ever seen him screams of hack. He's not just unfunny he seems like he's insufferable. I did see him get his head bashed in on a TV show once (I won't say which one to avoid spoilers) and I damn near jumped up and cheered.

Agreed here. HCSS don't have any songs that stand out. Crashdiet are better live and have a few good songs, but their bass player is a nationalist politician (SD)
For good Swedish glam/sleaze, try Straight Up, Swedish Erot!ca and Kingpin - the pre Shotgun Messiah band.

All of those Swedish hair metal bands who dress like they went to a Party City/Spirit Halloween store and bought generic "hair rocker" costumes. They all come across as so fake and try-hard, to me.

Thanks for explaining that. I was thinking it was bands that are known to drug chicks backstage.

I get the appeal of sports but I DON'T get the tribalism. "We" did this last weekend, "you" suck (said to a follower of another team), etc. You’re not on the field / track / court / whatever. You just watched some other people who were. Or maybe you didn't even watch, just saw the result later.

It's just a game. The same people and teams play each other year in, year out. Just enjoy their skills. Music fans mostly grow out of the tribal mindset once they pass puberty and enjoy different bands and genres. (Kisstards are one obvious exception). With sports teams, somehow it's a requirement that for your entire life you have to stay a fan only of the team that you picked when you were 7, and hate and disparage every other team.
I don’t get the appeal at all. Shit looks stupid.
Live everyone else here, I’m pushing 50, and I’ve never watch a football, basketball, or any other sports game in my life.
Sports looks to me like shit I did when I was a little kid, but I grew up.
Have no desire to watch grown men play those same kids games.
