    If she were a boy I'd still roide the arse off her.

    Beyonce FTW.

    Pissing standing up is overrated.

    Meatloafs new song says he'd do anything for love, but he wouldn't do that. However, he neglects to tell us what "that" is. It's one rule for faded rock stars and another for the rest of us.

    Depends on what you're standing on.

    Thats because most Americans on account of having an illicit relationship with food now have a bastard lovechild called obesity, as a result their haven't seen wee willy winky for years. It's easier for them to just sit and pi$$.

    Actually, he explained that. The lyric is: 'But I'll never forget the way you feel right now, oh no, no way, and I would do anything for love but I won't do that."

    Say that when you're miles away from the nearest toilet and you have to hover above the ground magically and you can't shake.

    I feel bad for women who need to take a piss. At least they're fearless when it comes to taking a shit in a public toilet. Then again, women probably don't piss on the seat.

    Dear miss Beyonce (if that is your real name),

    We get it, men suck...oh oh oh oh oh oh oh. We really regret it and should have married you oh oh oh oh oh oh. Life just isn't that tough for us as it is for the average bunny boiler oh oh oh oh oh oh...high pitched vocal riff...bum wiggle.

    Sincerely,

    Agreed. If I may be serious for a moment, that song is utterly reprehensible sexist, misandrist drivel.

    She's hot though. Even if she's not someone's type that hardly makes her ugly...

    I disagree, two people that i genuinely find so unattractive that i consider them to be ugly are her and Jennifer Lopez.

    Just something about them i want to slap.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,051 ✭✭✭winston82


    So if beyone was naked in front of you, you would still think she was fugly and wouldn't roide her? I doubt that. They only thing i'd slap would be her arse..

    Oh right, now i get it. When someone that i consider ugly is naked, because they are naked and female i am supposed to think they are hot?

    Or is it that i am supposed to think they are hot because you do?

    If i found either of them in front of me nekkid i would assume two things.

    1) I'm having a nightmare, better dream me up an axe and get to work.
    or
    2) I am having a really bad trip, a few less micrograms next time!

    Agreed. I think it's refreshing when guys don't drool over the usual generic suspects.
    At the same time though, I've no time for people saying "so and so is pug-ugly" as if it's a definitive statement, just because they don't personally fancy them. Not directing that at you, Dragan, just saying it general.

    Look, this thread is getting really confusing with Dragan and Dudess posting back and forth.

    Like, I was thinking, how does Dudess know who Nas is? Isn't she the mod of Alternative/Indie?

    Nope, wouldn't touch her with a barge pole as the saying goes.

    Give me someone like Katie Melua who can actually sing, pick up an instrument and entertain people for hours on end - without having strip an show body parts, shake her ass and other things besides actually displaying real talent!

    American over-hyped talentless twats, the lot of them. Useless dumbed down brain fodder for the masses.

    I'm not a fan of Beyonce's music, but if you think she can't sing then you've clearly never heard her before.

    ''Popular'' doesn't necessarily mean ''talentless''.

    So talent is a factor? if Katie Melua couldn't sing, dance or play an instrument she wouldn't get to touch off your barge pole?

    I've heard her sing and once I heard her (multiple times - against my will) I came to the same conclusion as before. She's a one trick pony.
    Every subsequent song just ends up boring and flatless.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    Doesn't mean she can't sing. She has a fantastic voice.

    Beyonce's new song "if i were a boy

    How in ****s name can you call this song new....?
    its been out about 4/5 months....unless you live in a cave.

    Well, to be honest, if I am going to pay a large amount of hard earned cash for concert tickets, I at least want to see natural musical talent, not natural skin and bones!
    If I wanted to see something in a skimpy outfit shaking it's ass at me, I'd go to a genuine strip bar. Not go to a politically correct lesser show with a one trick pony prancing about on a stage so that some can get their sexual kicks.

    As for Katie Melua touching my barge pole - that don't enter the equation.
    I regard talent as a skill - not because I get a turn on just from seeing her.

    Well now, thats just a fantastic leap of logic there Watson, it really is.

    I would be more of a Monica Belluci, Framke Jansen kind of guy myself.

    But no, you are right, because i don't like two of the same women as you then i must like all the women you don't. You sir, are some kind of idiot savaunt, i swear.

    @ Dudess, whilst i understand where you are coming from Dudess the simple fact of the matter is the pictures of them would be avoided, if they were ( hypothetically as i don't watch it ) on the tv i would switch it over. I find them past the point of not being attractive and towards the point of being a turn off, hence i consider them to be ugly in my opinion, the same way as i am sure I am ugly in the opinion of a fair few people. Just the way life is, i don't need to sit here and tow the line of "everyone is beautiful" because not everybody is.

    As for his voice, it's ****ing fantastic and the singer in me wishes to god she would start working with some decent producers and writers.

    Nope, roid rage is when i don't respond at all because i have thrown my laptop through the window, stipped to my undies and the followed it out to hunt for human flesh. :D

    As for the whole "It's not new song" thing, i hadn't even heard of it. The whole not listening to the radio or watching MTV to protect myself from terrible music thing i guess.

    So, like Charles Manson says* "If i haven't seen it, it's new to me!"

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,213 ✭✭✭SoWatchaWant


    Yep, Beyoncé's song is sexist drivel, and the same thing directed at women would not be tolerated, and rightly so. Not that the song bothers me, it says more about Beyoncé than it does about men.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,051 ✭✭✭winston82


    so the thread title should be 'Beyonce's 3 month and 14 day old song "if i were a boy"?

    You know what's worse than Beyonce's "If I Were A Boy"?
    Beyonce's "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)".

    They make me want to tear down radio stations with my bare hands.

    No no, that's not what I'm saying - my comment wasn't directed at you specifically anyway. What I mean is, if a person finds someone unattractive then they find them unattractive. If they find them ugly, then that's their personal view. However, some people seem to think their view on attractiveness/unattractiveness is the definitive one - that if they personally find, e.g. Katie Holmes ugly then that means she's definitely ugly, no two ways about it. But it's subjective.

    I don't go by the cliché that "everyone is beautiful" either but I do think most of the time beauty or ugliness is subjective... and occasionally there are times when both are objective.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,606 ✭✭✭Jumpy


    Pfft, what a 'heartbreaking' piece of trash. If she really wanted to be a boy then I would explain exactly how difficult it is to take a dump with morning woody.

    Is she trying to say being a man/boy/manboy is easy? For Shaaaaame.
