lmao I'm not being a smartass duuuude it just doesn't really make sense. If you dislike something, you just dislike it. Now, if you said 'brokeback mountain' is overrated, THAT would be a prime example of the meaning. hehe

Wow giving me a lecture on what you think is the true meaning of overrated sure sounds like a smartass to me. Now should I look up the definition of a smartass for you?

smart-ass
n. Slang
A smart aleck.

smart al·eck
n. Informal
A person regarded as obnoxiously self-assertive.
An impudent person

smart aleck:

An impudent or obnoxiously self-assertive individual, a wise guy, as in New teachers often have a hard time coping with the smart alecks in their classes. This expression, dating from the mid-1800s, probably alluded to a person of this description who was named Alec or Alexander, but his identity has been lost.

Hmm, none of what I said applied to any of those, actually.

Cheers for Middle aged moms for the second week. Idol, Barry Manilow claims 1. Congrats to Heather Headley for an impressive album debut. And whose song 'in my mind' is stuck in my mind. Train's new CD looks to have debuted poorly, rounding out the top 10.

Congrats to Shakira, whose song after listening to 100000 times I still am not tired of. If I remember, this is Shakira's first US number one single? If that's true, congrats! The hip hop tune that everyone's jammin to is "Ridin'" and is rightfully at #2. It's just alright in my opinion. Nelly Furtado is scoring a huge comback with 'Promiscuous' at #3, which I believe was higher than "I'm Like A Bird" ever reached. Fort Minor's song drops to #6, that is a great song. Rihanna scores a double hitter with the infectious "SOS" dropping to #7 and the crap ballad "Unfaithful" rising to #9. And nobody can stop shaking to Sean Paul's "Temperature" at #10. I'm probably the only one but I think "Dani California" is onw of the worst songs the Red Hot Chili Peppers have ever done.

Dixie Chicks... ROCK ON. 2nd week topping the chart with probably their most critically praised album in a long time. Screw the hicks that hate them. That ever so popular (and tween loved) DCOM High School Musical still hits it off at #2. Phenomenon? Maybe they'll put the next one in the theatres? Carrie Underwood is high again, probably due to late American Idol fever. Angels & Airwaves at #12.. god I hate them. They areb probably the most ego inflated, pretentious band ever. "Our music is amazing" "It's better than anything out there" "The lyrics are god". Give me a break! Their music is so ordinary! And the lyrics so pretentious! I want to smash their music in pieces.

The top of the chart is the biggest no-brainer of the year. At #2 comes the sequel to one of the worst movies ever. Transamerica is at #8, which looks worth a rent.
