The revenge is bad, China and it's carrier, Riots in England, some baby seals getting blown up, and anything related to Israel thread have all been far too negative lately, you damned keyboard smacking emos. I'm here to balance things out!

And god help you if you cop-out with a Damned by Faint Praise. They need to be something you normally dislike for one reason or another, and the purpose is to look the other way and list something you genuinely like about whatever it is you hate!

Let me start with 2....

  • Religion* : Catholic School Girls. I was going to say Naughty Nuns, except I can't think of any in Real Life. Also, while certain religion are notable for suppressing artistic freedom, at the same time, it's also inspired a lot of art...or atleast the suppression of art pushed some artists to go out of their way to make more art as a sign of rebellion. Either way, religion managed to spawn a lot of art, and gave use Catholic Schoolgirls.

  • Rap* : Movies with rap in them gives us some of the funniest Nostalgia Critic episodes...also, this "epic" rap battle between a cat and a dog is nothing short of...entertaining.

And....go!

PS - why don't Naughty Nuns exist in Real Life?


And to make things less predictable, if you talk about a country you hate, don't go the obvious route*

ooooo this reminds me.

Conservatives: They're generally pro-death penalty and support more severe penalties on criminals who did especially severe crimes.

Liberals: They don't place as much value in religion. They're often more pro-homosexual rights, and they're often nicer to other countries. And they realize that victimless crimes aren't crimes at all most the time.

Why yes...I do hate both sides of the political spectrum.

The Catholic Church actually kept the small amount of European literature and sciences alive during the "dark ages" and medieval ages. Although it was nothing compared to Muslim science, it was the intellectual heart of Europe for quite some time.

  • Liberals...I admit it, some liberalism and progressivism is necesary in order to advance in social issues (gender rights, race equality, etc...)

  • Sarah Palin...is hot [lol]

  • Mormons may be annoying but you never find a mormon in jail, a mormon using drugs, a mormon involved in criminal acts...in my country, THAT'S really something.

When that protestor threw his shoe at Dubya and he dodged despite being caught completely off-guard, that was pretty badass.

(Psh, politicians are easy. I'm going to take one of the HARD ones!)

Pedophiles often rationalize their psychological dysfunction by idealizing children as innocent and pure. This seems indicative of a concept of inner purity that they wish to attain for themselves but are too weak-willed to live up to.

That's right, I went there. Pedos are woobies.

Furthermore, I think Guantanamo must be destroyed.

I'll admit, guns are hella fun to use in videogames, and it can be immensely satisfying to blitz through a crowd of literally hundreds of random enemies with a minigun or such like, exterminating each and every single one of them.

Brussel sprouts are nutricious.

Mormon missionaries, though annoying when I have to get up and put on pants to answer the door, are unfailingly kind and polite, and usually willing to help out with minor stuff if you express an interest in their church.

People who blast their super-bass rap loud enough to hear them from a block away deserve my thanks, because I have never, ever been pulled over (or even talked to) by a police officer if they are within ear-shot.
