Hardly. If you feel the need to try and make yourself "Oh-so-condescending" with your "witty and well thought out" smartassy posts because everyone here annoys you with their "rabid inconsistent" remarks, why the hell do you come here? Are you that in need of self assurance or just that bored? Seems a little pathetic to me. Anyhoo, I stand by my earlier remarks. ICP, Twiztid, Avril Lavigne, Ashlee Simpson, Evanescence, and all these other bands are doing something right if they have flocks of loyal fans buying their music and products. I still hate them with an unbridled passion, however, IMO, it would be pointless to just up and say that they suck instead of just simply saying that I cant stand them.

I asked you where your "Doing something right." logic was, since it appeared to have vanished, and you retorted by calling me an anti-social crybaby, yet somehow I'M the one with the problem? Not too up on the logic front are you?
You have a problem with saying bands and "artists" suck, I don't. Therein lies the difference. Then again, I'll change my name to Violent AC before I ever take a Cannibal Corpse fan's view on artistry seriously. It's your right to like them, of course, and music TASTE is entirely subjective, but you still choose to openly like Cannibal Corpse, it's your cross to bear. If someone here said "I LOVE CRADLE OF FILTH!", Backfire would attempt to shit on them, and has done. Just like I would do with the "artists" you mentioned.
Back to topic, though: It doesn't take talent for ICP to do what you said, but by your rationale they should deserve credit for doing something right.
It's still retarded logic, or lack thereof, but at least stick to it, buddy.
