List five things that people in your circle of friends or peer group are wild about, but you can’t really understand the fuss over. To use the words of Caesar (from History of the World Part I), “Nice. Nice. Not thrilling . . . but nice."

Here's my list of what I say is OK but my friends and peer group swear are AMAZING. in other words, 5 things that i think are completely overrated:

1) All Your Base Are Belong To Us.
for some reason this is a huge joke among some of my friends, who get gigantic kicks out of all the spin-offs, i.e., all your smurfs are belong to smurf.

2) Deuce Bigelow, Male Gigolo. and other Saturday Night Live-type movies.
they just are NOT funny. i'm sorry.

3) Fruit-y martninis or drinks.
ew. i think cosmopolitans are so nasty. and just because they were made famous by Sex and the City doesn't automatically make them delicious :)

4)iPods
i just don't think they are all that exciting. my sister in law hit the nail right on the head. When do i listen to music? when i'm in the car....so, i have no need for an ipod then, and when i'm exercising....and at the gym all the machines have tvs.

5) ER
i cannot bring myself to watch this show. it jumped the shark about 3 seasons ago when Mark Green died. it's SOOOO bad now. i'd so much rather take my medical drama watching elsewhere and watch Grey's Anatomy, because, well...Patrick Dempsey is delish.
