Taking Sides: Gomez Vs Britney Spears

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

Oh man do Gomez suck. They suck big! Worst band ever, possibly. Britney, on the other hand, has done some top pop tunes - so fecking catchy you'll be humming them in your sleep...

"Lucky", "Stronger", "Oops I did it Again"... you can't go wrong with them. I got the "Oops I did it Again" CD second hand and whilst I've only given it a whirl a coupla times, I just know that if I ever have the party to end all parties it will have the dust blown off.

But who would party to Gomez? God these guys suck. Britney wins!

This is one of the threads where whomever Britney's competition is wins by default.

So does Britney win?

― CRW (CRW), Tuesday, 4 May 2004 00:58 (twenty-one years ago)

Since Britney is one of the most putrid recording artists of all time, I think she begins this competition in the negative and only threatens victory when competing against Third Eye Blind

― edward o (edwardo), Tuesday, 4 May 2004 02:32 (twenty-one years ago)

Baby One More Time: sensational singles
Oops! I Did It Again: as above, but with better album tracks
Britney: the singles are the worst songs on it - Anticipating should have eaten the world. Good B-sides too.
In The Zone: bizarrely endearing scatter-shot, gets better every listen

― edward o (edwardo), Tuesday, 4 May 2004 02:36 (twenty-one years ago)

gomez > Spears
don't want to sound like a cliche, but the girl is the least entertaining/interesting pop star in my mind. I don't find her attractive, I don't like her music. I'll readily admit guilty pleasures of hundreds of other pop stars, but Britney doesn't do it for me.

Ditto. Everyone who has taken the students' side appear to be existing in some bizarre parallel dimension where shit is good. FFS THEY WENT TO MANCHESTER FOR A PISSUP AND STOLE A TRAFFIC CONE or something AND THEN WROTE A SONG ABOUT IT, AND RELEASED IT AS A SINGLE. AND YOU'RE DEFENDING THEM

― DJ Mencap (DJ Mencap), Tuesday, 4 May 2004 08:11 (twenty-one years ago)

The song w/ the Ying Yang twins BEST be her next single. This new one sucks.

― djdee2005, Tuesday, 4 May 2004 08:16 (twenty-one years ago)

No, her next single is supposed to be Breathe On Me, and then The Wanking Song as the fifth. Foolish lass that she is ignoring the mighty Brave New Girl.

― edward o (edwardo), Tuesday, 4 May 2004 08:28 (twenty-one years ago)

Is calling 'Slave 4 U' one of the worst things on the 3rd album a higher endorsement of the rest of it? B/c 'Slave' is one of the best songs of the decade.

I'm hardly one that goes throwing my credentials around because there are people out there much more qualified than I and I don't believe in it anyway. But when provoked, it's pretty dumb to accuse me of doing that.

Somehow, my abilitees did enable me to read that.
Did anyone other than uh not know that I was taking the piss out of the passage above?

WHO DARES CHALLENGE THE MIGHTY TWARM!?

― TWARM!! (Øystein H-O), Tuesday, 4 May 2004 19:13 (twenty-one years ago)

Title: Bread Machine Potato Bread

1 sm Potato, peeled and halved
3 tb Vegetable oil
2 tb Granulated sugar
1 1/2 ts Salt
3 c All-purpose flour
1 1/2 ts Quick-rising dry yeast (or
-1 1/4 tsp. bread machine yeast)

In saucepan of boiling salted water, cook potato for 10 to 15 minutes or until tender; drain, reserving 3/4 cup cooking water. Mash potato well to make 1/2 cup. Let potato and cooking liquid cool to room temperature.

Remove baking pan from large (1 1/2 to 2 lb.) bread machine. Add to pan (in order) cooking water, oil, sugar, salt, mashed potato and flour. Sprinkle yeast over top, making sure yeast does not touch water mixture.

According to manufacturer's instructions, choose cycle appropriate to nonsweet-or nonfresh-milk bread. When baked, immediately remove pan from machine; shake loaf from pan. Let cool completely on rack.

Makes 1 loaf from pan, 12 slices.

Thanks: "If I tell you that the blood is going to drip from his eyes, then you'd better bring your handkerchief so you can dip it into the blood." Man, sometimes my ad-libs are even better than the script. "Bring your handkerchief." I'm glad I saved the tape of that one.
