Things that are overrated

#1

Could be anything.

 

Here are a few for me.

 

Bruce Springsteen. I like Born to Run. Glory Days is alright if you need a good song to pitch in slow motion to. But how do you have a 40 year career, be worth hundreds of millions of dollars and have every song sound the same? Good work if you can get it.

 

Chipotle. The chain restaurant, not the pepper. It's fine if you need a quick lunch. But I am not waiting 30 minutes in line for what is a mere step or two above Taco Bell quality. And they charge what...$2-$3 more for chips and salsa? Nah thanks.

 

Craft beers. Maybe I have an unrefined pallett. Maybe I just was not meant to be a beer snob. Maybe I should try harder to be a hipster. I think most the craft beers I have tried suck. Most taste like crap. And they cost twice as much (if not more) than beer I can pick up at Publix. You can keep your craft beer, horn-rimmed glasses and general contempt for anything popular. I'll keep my water down Americna lager, contact lenses and enjoy the day.

 

What say you?

Actually I take this back.  Though I generally don't agree that domestic macro is as good, I do think craft beer is a bit overrated in general.

There are some wines I like on occasion, but mostly I find them bitter.

What I want to know is why a person who polishes off a bottle of wine a day is considered cultured, but if someone else drinks the same amount of alcohol in the form of beer they're considered low brow lushes.

Most QB's in the draft, actually most players in the draft.

 

Also, most Qb's in the NFL, but that's because they were overrated in the draft.

Anything in entertainment that has a mainstream fallowing.  Everytime I here about any popular musician,people say how talented they are.  THey're beautiful people and that's about it.  Can they hold anything against real musicians who worked there whole lives to dedicate theselves to something other than being famous.  Yes Biance is a perfect example.  Same goes with the movies of our time. LOTR is a great example.  AS  are the actors.  Everyone tells me how "talented" Jennifer Lawrence is.  IS she as talented as Maryl Streep?  No.  Never will be.  Is she hot?  Yes. 

 

Pretty much everyone who is famous now is hot.  Is that just a coincidence?  They're not overated at being hot, but they are overrated in terms of talent.

What say you?
 

On craft beer, they have more alcohol then your cheaper beers.  And yes, you have an unrefined pallet.

 

Moe's:  I've gone there 3 times and every time I went it was just as bad as before.  I kept thinking maybe I just had a bad experience.  Yuck.

 

gators:  Way overrated last year.

 

Watermelon:  Yeah, I must be the only one.
