Beating the Skeleton of the Dead Horse, a Wank in Three Movements
punk_turtles posts to the YouThink.com forums, waxing poetic about Avril Lavigne:

"I suppose everyone is tired of reading post based on the pop princess, Avril Lavigne...Well, I was reading in what I think was Newsweek magazine, and there was an article based on Avril..Well, I was reading along, when I came across the part where they called her the anti-Britney.."

Apparently this is rather old news, as the first few commenters point out, which after a comment by jusork ("Criticizing an artist because their [sic] popular is the wrong way to judge an artist") turns into a pleasing diversion about lip gloss, and then Kareng steps in with the ill-fated caveat, "The joke is Avril."

Cue CRYN_OUT—"The joke is how jealous you are of her!"

Several people point out not only the dubious nature of Ms. Lavigne's "talents" (disclaimer: I know nothing about Avril and prefer it stay that way) but the fact that CRYN_OUT doesn't "have to diss people who DON'T like her."

CRYN_OUT (responding to asserations of Avril's lack of a good singing voice): "She doesn't lip synch and I can tell because the song has variations in it." I have no idea what that means.

It calms for a while and then more "haterz" chime in, with CRYN_OUT making a few feeble attempts to stick up for her fave ('cept for one attempt on page 5 where she bravely and courageously says "f*ck"! Twice!).

And punk_turtles was never heard from again. The end.

P.S. "And you're anti anything that is not Beatles or Eric Clapton, so it seems." And there's a problem with that how?

ETA: Thanks to ivorykisses for pointing this out.
