I don't mean every round. I'm talking about when the Weakest Link gods are smiting your ass.

The Pretenders are awful. Not Garbage awful…. but pretty damn close.

This was Annie Lennox's former band right?

I guess every band has its detractors but I've never known anyone to refer to Pretenders as awful.  Interesting.
I just figure some bands work for me and some don't.  But I don't trash any music by referring to it as "bad" or "awful" (although it might sound awful to my ears).  If someone out there loves it, and it makes them feel good, then it's good.  In fact, I don't believe in "bad" music, just music I like, and music I don't care for. 

You have a politically correct way of saying a band is awful. You soften the language to not offend anybody. 

If I offend anyone tough titties. The Pretenders are awful to me. I mean Weezer awful.

Oh come on man, you must know by now I say what I mean.  I have been saying this about music for years and I would not change my wording.  I do not refer to any music as "bad music".  Music has never robbed me.  It has never punched me out.  It has never restricted my movement.  For every piece of music I don't care for, there is someone out there that loves it.  That's the beauty of music.  Music is goodness.  There is no "bad" music.  I stand by my words!

And no, you did not offend me.  What's the deal here anyway?  Why so defensive and why so on the attack?  WTF. man?  Seriously, come on.  We're just having fun here.

The Imagine Dragons injure my soul. 

Your choice.

I am having fun! I didn’t say you changed your tune. I’ve seen you say the same thing before and as long as you have been saying it, I take the position that it’s a politically correct way for you to say a band is awful. If you say there is no bad music only music you don’t care for, no fan of the band will get offended. It’s fine… nothing wrong with that. 
I look at it differently. I believe there is bad music and in fact, there is awful music that I cannot listen to. I also accept that many people enjoy what I deem bad or awful music. There are also bad and awful movies, tv shows, artwork, hockey jerseys, golf shirts, breath and chocolate. I use language to describe MY position. 

There really is no “deal” here. The entire thread is about expressing opinion. People can’t believe (for some unknown reason) that I think the Pretenders are awful. 

I am also a safety consultant who always tries to steer clear of using soft language when describing potential injuries so it is habit forming. For example, pinch points softens the potential severity of injury when it could be a crush-point or sever-point. Anyways, I digress. 

As for thinking the Pretenders are "awful"- that just illustrates that we all hear differently.  I can't understand how some people like Kanye West so much.  Different ears, different brains, that's all.  It's all...dare I say it?... good.

I will say a ritualistic prayer for you, light a candle, and appeal to the gods for you.

That, or have a beer and put on some Dream Syndicate.

Your choice.

Looks like were talking potatos or potatoes.  No worries.  I just found it amusing to be referred to as being politically correct regarding music- which I assume you understand is not the case.  When you say "bad music", you mean music you can't stand to listen to.  I get that and there surely is music I don't like.  I just don't think of it as bad music.  So we're not so far off.  A bit maybe, but not a huge deal.

Lol you two crazy kids.

One uses deft dialogue to describe their thoughts and the other is blunt and crass.  Both get their point across just in a different way.

And for the record Modeski Martin and Wood are awful…
