All these sucking threads suck

Saying that John Mellencamp sucks, or Areosmith sucks, or anybody really is really small-minded and shallow. These guys make music, they are classic artists who are a master of thier craft. There are millions upon millions of people out there who would disagree with you when you say so-and-so sucks.
The reason that they are big-time musicians is because they in fact, do not suck. They've made it. They made it before most of you were even born and you know why? Mostly because other people love them. Their music touches people. It makes them feel, it makes them rock out....whatever.
So you don't like 'em? Fine. You don't have to. But don't go around saying _______ sucks because I personally don't like them. That's such a turn off. It's just ignorant.
I was never a huge fan of Kelly Osbourne. I thought she was a spoiled little pop princess with a bad haircut riding daddy's wave. I never actually listened to her music or gave her the benefit of the doubt. This morning my neice was watching Much Music and there was an interview with Kelly Osbourne. Guess what? Turns out, she's actually very articulate, intelligent and appreciative of where she's at right now.
I judged a book by it's cover, and I was wrong.... imagine that.
Anyways, I think all these sucking threads suck, so if you guys want to talk about things that suck, go do it in OTD. The Pub does not suck, so let's hold ourselves to some kind of standard, eh?

We could go back and forth with verying opinions and reasons backing them up forever. One point where CherryBomb is dead on is that these threads really are more suited for otd.

Since when do talent and success have anything to do with each other?
Furthermore, since when does popularity equate to talent? Bush had over 50% of the popular vote last election, but he still sucks as a president.

You could even look at the little blurb under the pub where it says:

blinkidiot said: In order to even argue about this you'd have to create a definition of talent. Is it a majority rule or is it bands that you like that aren't popular?
Talent: the ability to do what you do well. Is it subjective? Sure, about as much as intelligence, but that doesn't mean it's not real.
Quote:
I've found that most people that say "They sold out" or "They suck now that they hit it big" are elitist snobs who just want to like a band that nobody else knows.
Who's saying that? I'm simply saying that there's no correlation between talent and success. There are plenty of talented acts that have succeeded, just as there are many talented acts that are on food stamps. All I'm saying is there's no connection between the two.

One of the things I love about coming to the Shroomery forums is that people are nice, do not judge other people or their tastes. I am with Cherrybomb on this one...you want to do that stuff perhaps you should go to another site...not just another forum. Perhaps the admin would agree. If not, I will find another place to go....cause this is the kind of stuff that is splashed all over the place on other sites and I have had my fill of it.

Just because this is the pub doesn't mean we don't have opinions. Yes I think John Mellencamp and Springsteen suck. I can only speak for myself when I say I'm judging THEM, not the people who happen to like them.
And Aerosmith rox.

The ironic thing about this post is that it's probably the suckiest one I've read in the pub in a long time. People have the right to say what they think sucks here in the pub. That's not breaking any rules. So anytime I wanna post something that carries negative conotations I have to do it in OTD? Umm sorry no.
