overrated, not sucks:

1. Food? Uni. I love almost all kinds of sushi, but can't put this shit in my mouth, let alone pay $7.00 for the privilege.

2. Actor? Gene Hackman. He's played the same role 50 times. How hard can that be?

3. Band or Singer? U2. Since Boy and War I haven't seen it. It all sounds the same, and that sound is no great shakes, combined with Bono's petulant whining makes for a big "Huh?"

4. Law firm? Wilson Sonsini three years ago. They had hired so many warm bodies, lost many of their senior associates, and had so much work, that they were charging dot.bomb companies exorbitant rates to have a 2nd year fuck up the docs, while openly admitting that they knew it was going on and would fix any problems when that company had an equity event. Not to mention the conflicts of interest they regularly engaged in. But the local dot/bombs had to have the "prestige" of having the so-called "best."

5. Occupation? Male Porn Star. Most of the women are skanky. It has to be damn difficult to do with the people on the set, multiple takes, multiple scenes in a day, tough positions, no real connection with your "co-stars," and some activities that aren't what floats your boat. Plus, I suspect it affects your ability to have satisfying regular sex with a non-paid partner.

6. Movie? Star Wars. It is a glorified fairy tale/space western with wooden dialogue, outdated effects, an unbelievable plot and Carrie Fisher is not hot, yet her brother wants to fuck her.

7. Song? Anything by Marvin Gaye. Sure, he did some good stuff, but not the stark, raving, he was so wonderful crap that everybody feels they have to say now that he's dead.

8. TV Show (Reality or otherwise)? Anything some critic raves about on PBS There's a reason nobody will make the shit without a grant, no other station will air the shit, and why very few people watch it. More than likely the show is bad, stilted, condescending, or involves crappy music.

9. Article of clothing? Lingerie It is just in my way. Good looking stuff is better than granny panties or a stained bra, but still mostly irrelevant to me.

10. Sexual position or activity? Kissing It's like salad. It's fine and has its place, but its prefatory to the main course and is not a meal in itself. The time spent kissing before moving on to more satisfying acts should be no longer than it takes to eat a salad.
