Who has a belief absolutely no-one else shares.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

I have a theory that whatever you say, no matter how unusual, there will be someone else on DU who agrees. So, let's try to disprove this theory. I want to find someone who is completely alone in a belief.

I don't like the Grateful Dead. Anyone else?

On edit - Can't stand the Matrix movies much either.

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

1. I don't like Paul McCartney .

Nor do I hold the Pope as an important person .

[Fixated]

2. I don't like Jews

Just kidding!!!

[JohnKleeb]

19. asshole

You better be kidding and I am not even Jewish.
Now on Jews and stuff, you know how peeps speculate that the Jews are behind everything, I think its the WASPs.

[regnaD kciN]

117. But if "WASP" refers to Anglo-Saxons...

...and the belief of the Worldwide Church of God (that the British are the Lost Tribe of Israel -- I'm not making this up) is true, then WASPS are Jews! So, that means they're to blame anyway.

;-)

(But would that mean that anyone who opposes Bush can be labeled an "anti-Semite?")

:crazy:

[Fixated]

119. You've got to be kidding.

Please tell me you read more than subject lines.

[IronLionZion]

146. I think Democrats are the unpatriotic spawn of Satan

Calm down people, I'm just kidding!

[beyurslf]

3. Well I can take that one for you. Grateful Dead is not one of

my Favs either.

I dont have an opinion on Paul McCartney.

I can't stand Mel Gibson and Kevin Costner.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

5. Can't stand Gibson, ambivalent on Costner. n/t

[trotsky]

4. I hate the Wizard of Oz movie.

I'm not particularly crazy about the Grateful Dead, either. :)

[Screaming Lord Byron]

6. that's good. That might have legs, that one. n/t

[boxster]

8. Nope, sorry - my wife hates that movie.

[trotsky]

11. I'm not alone!!!

Whoopeee! :bounce:

[Intelsucks]

7. I always thought that the Grateful Dead was boring

so you are not alone in that one.:boring:

[TrogL]

9. I don't like the Grateful Dead

I can cope with their musical style. Others have done it better. I just wish they'd learn how to tune.

My turn.

All psychic events are synchronistic. This synchronicity has nothing to do with the quantum mechanics term of the same name. It occurs on a data layer.

[Unity]

16. Who's done it better in your opinion?

[ProfessorGAC]

133. In My Opinion, The List Would Be Too Long To Post Here

By decade, i could list at least 20 better bands. They're tedious, overwrought, and other than the original keyboardist, none of them were very good players. The "jams" are overly loose and usually sound like nobody is listening to anyone else, which means the jams aren't organic arrangements that take different avenues and set different moods. Rather, than became meandering, formless, shapeless models of mush.

Since there have been other jam bands, and other bands that didn't make a living on it but sure could do it, the list of bands that did it better would be hundreds long.

10. Half the population deserves half the representation

Women are not a special interest group anymore; we are half the population dammit. :mad:

If I were doing a 2,000+ year performance review of men in power; I'd fire them all for incompetence.

[Intelsucks]

12. George Bush is an excellent president and leader!

I win. game over. Just kidding.:P

[FreeperSlayer]

13. Mother Teresa was a fraud; Princess Di made me barf

I could never stand either of them.

[Endangered Specie]

23. I second that.

[dolgoruky]

29. Millions agree with you

[put out]

124. I think it's a shame

she couldn't use her own health care facilities when she was ill. Must have been saving all that room and stellar care for the poor people.

[slackmaster]

14. I like the one George's family had on Seinfeld

Contrived holiday tradition "Festivus" as an alternative to Christmas.

I saw that episode yesterday. IMO it's one of the best.

But personally, I think I and I alone should be allowed to do whatever I feel like.

[toddzilla]

20. time for the feats of strength!!

lol!!

I also believe that no matter how ugly a car is, or how putrid the color may be, someone will buy it.

[trotsky]

26. Don't forget the airing of grievances!

EVERY damn holiday should have time for that. Hurray Festivus!

[KCDem]

15. I believe Barbara Streisand and Bette Middler are the same person.

Seriously, ask my husband.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

17. That's a possible winner.

[Loonman]

18. Julia Roberts is a woofer

Totally unattractive.

[trotsky]

28. Sorry, Loonman, I agree with that.

Never did understand her fame.

[KCDem]

34. agreed

Maybe I'm just jealous that she's so famous, but that mouth! :puke:

[Loonman]

37. Guess I'm not the only one

....

[beyurslf]

55. KcDem

That's the strangest belief I have ever heard of.

How can they be? Bette's nose? Bab's nose? Bab's stange vibratto? Babs is taller, isn't she?

[KCDem]

92. I think the noses have something to do with it.

Maybe it's just that I don't like either, they're both of the same generation, and people who like one generally like the other. :shrug:

[Chef]

Julia

I agree. Plain homely. Also Cameron Diaz.

[Zuni]

75. what?

Cameron diaz is gorgeous!

[trotsky]

127. Ugh, yeah!

Cameron Diaz is nothing at all to look at. Julia Roberts, at least I can see why people *might* find her attractive, even if I don't. But Diaz? Sorry.

[JohnKleeb]

21. well

You know how some really idiotic people believe the Jews are behind everything, I think WASPs are.

[Goldmund]

27. haha yeah you and..

...about a thousand other people I know.

[JohnKleeb]

38. really

I thought I was crazy. I think they are behind everything because simply put look at our presidents and their names and backgrounds and shit.

[Loonman]

22. Most PETA people wear leather shoes

It's true.

[SoCalDem]

24. I believe that I should be a multi-millionaire

but since that has never happened, apparently no one else in the universe shares my belief :(

[kcwayne]

32. You were a millionaire in 1999

if you counted your money in Thai Bhats.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

25. I think Atlantis will be found below Antartica.

[AlienGirl]

60. It will!!

And it will actually be a spaaceship that shape-changing space dragons used to get to Earth, carrying colonies of proto-human servants and a large number of ratlike creatures. Some very bad guys will try to steal it for themselves, but a team comprised of a crazy blind mage, a rat shaman, a clone, and a cyberzombie will help the Children of Einstein (human who moved to Mars in the 1940s) save it! This will happen in 2063.

I know this because it's exactly what happened in our last Shadowrun game. Freaky, huh?

Tucker

[Robroy]

30. John Wayne...

was a sissy.

I don't like Paul Newman or Gregory Peck, or baseball or apple pie.

[Goldmund]

33. I agree

actually, I don't even know the rules of baseball.

[smirkymonkey]

105. You don't like Gregory Peck??

I loved him, but I agree with you on the rest.

[frylock]

31. don't like the dead or matrix movies..

my brutha!! I'm with you on both counts!!

[underpants]

35. Stipe and Bono used to communicate/dis each other in songs

No not like some secret tongue but their aldums in the 80's had lyrics that seemed to go together. I understand that they are fairly good friends so maybe that was going on....or maybe it's just what I heard in the REM songs.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

39. I thought it was Stipe and Morrisey?

[Screaming Lord Byron]

42. I have a strong inexplicable loathing of Belgium. Anyone else? n/t

[CanuckAmok]

71. Yeah, like, everybody in France and Germany!

Sorry, Byron, try again...

[Screaming Lord Byron]

I harbour ill feelings for Australia. Hah!

[Kellanved]

110. I confess

That's actually true.

[Robb]

74. Ha! You and most of the Netherlands! n/t

[Zuni]

78. They shouldn't be a country

In reality it just a line on the map. One half are French people and the other half are dutchmen and germans.

It is an anamoly.

I hate Luxemborg too.

[underpants]

43. I didn't listen to much of the Smiths

a mistake I have now discovered. I dunno could be.

[Lisa0825]

48. That angry underwear sig really freaks me out...

I hope this fear won't end up expressing itself in bad ways when I see an actual pair of tighties.

[underpants]

67. Ha!

Oh I'll leave that joke in the bag.

Welcome to DU :hi:

[CanuckAmok]

76. at least Underpants' posts are always "brief" n/t

85. GROOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNN

You only see Tricky Dick once every six months because he finally had the big one and his ticker gave out about a year into the * admin. They only have the technology to animate him every so often for the big fundraisers...

[eileen_d]

41. I have never seen the following movies

1) Titanic
2) All things Matrix
3) Pretty Woman
4) As Good As It Gets

I'm sure someone on DU shares at least one with me; don't know about all four.

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

45. I share some

I can't bear watching " Titanic" , and never saw " As Good As It Gets " .

[kitkatrose]

145. I've never seen Pretty Woman

and I've never heard of As Good As It Gets.

[Blade]

46. I too dislike the Grateful Dead and the Matix movies...

I also HATE hotdogs and tofu.

On edit: I've never seen Titanic. :) yay me!

I also believe that the govt. is doing a "Weekend at Bernie's" thing with Cheney.

[smirkymonkey]

109. I agree w/ you on the Cheney thing...

I really do - thought I was the only one. And, I think shrub and pickles are GOP robots, who are operated by the neo-cons through a v-chip planted in their..um...heads.

47. I get major wood fantasizing about Barbara Bush

132. I Concur! Most Overrated Tripe EVER!

[Blade]

56. Couple of other beliefs:

I believe the flu shots are some sick governmental experiment.

I believe that chocolate is overrated.

[Loonman]

57. 200 Cigarettes was the worst ensemble cast movie ever made

How you can manage to crap up a movie about New Years Eve with Elvis Costello in it is beyond me.

Unwatchable.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

58. No. The Anniversary Party is worse. n/t

[skypilot]

100. Yeah, and what was the deal with...

...that one dude calling Jennifer Beals a c*unt during a game of charades? Charades, for Christ's sake!

[Screaming Lord Byron]

103. I have tried too hard to excise the movie from my memory to answer that!

[CanuckAmok]

64. Moreso than, say, "Straight to Hell"?

Which, curiously, also starred Elvis Costello...

[Speck Tater]

89. The only good thing about 200 cigs was...

... Kate Hudson's performance. The rest was crap. Although Christina Ricci's accent was entertaining.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

59. I also believe Hitler was in the possession of the Spear of Destiny

and other arcane occult artifacts.

[AlienGirl]

97. But only one Ball of Destiny?

Sorry, that was bad. But I couldn't resist!

[carolinayellowdog]

61. I believe in the sock monster

112. But

If there were Underwear Gnomes, wouldn't one of tem have stolen underpants' sigline by now?

[prole_for_peace]

62. i don't like the Dead or the Beatles.

i don't like Wizard of Oz, Alice in Wonderland.

my boyfriend says i think i am smarter than anyone else.

i voted for jerry brown in the democratic primary years ago.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

63. don't like the Beatles. That might be the one.

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

66. I don't like the Beatles either .

Highly overrated .

The Beatles are the sine qua non of all that came after.

65. As a Democrat alone in Freeper Country.....

[CanuckAmok]

68. I believe...

Okay, I have GOT to stop reading "Breakfast of Champions!"

[LanternWaste]

69. Never trust anyone under 30...

Never trust anyone under 30...

I mean, c'mon...why would you even consider it in the first place?

70. I believe in the Raelians

and am a member of the raelian movement.

No just kidding, but I know a girl who really wants to join them and go to their compound. Really.

[underpants]

72. HEre's one:I think Sandra Levy is living in the apartment next to us

I like our neighbor a lot (except for letting her cat out) but she does look a lot like the photos I've seen. She moved in just about the time that Levy disappeared, we can't figure out what she does for a living, and she always has a different guys coming by-nothing bad it's just that they all have the same general description and have that "agent look".

I don't mean the disrespect the dead it's just a running uh joke with me and my wife (who thinks I am crazy).

[Kamika]

73. I enjoyed the postman

There you have it.

Oh and waterworld wasn't that bad!

Ditto on the Dead. Meh.
Julia Roberts is scary-looking.

Beat that, Nanaimoan!

[CanuckAmok]

87. Damn! I don't know what they got for making "The Avengers",

but it should have started with a life sentence!

[mobuto]

111. Worst movie ever made?

I've never seen a movie audience as angry as when I watched the Avengers. The projectionist narrowly avoided a lynch mob.

[Atman]

148. I liked Joe vs. The Volcano

I've never met anyone who didn't laugh at me when I admit that.

I think the natives dressed in Orange Crush cans chanting Have Nagila was one of the funniest damn things I've seen.

Oh, do I get to pick two?

I think Janneane Garafolo is HOT, even if I can't spell her name.

[Blade]

83. I believe Ann Coulter is the sexiest female alive!

jk. :)

[Kamika]

90. i party, seriously agree

Ok she is not the sexiest woman alive, but I mean she's not the monster we sometimes make her out to be..

Altough her hands are seriously freaking me out

[Blade]

94. Yes she is...

she's gross, she's sickly thin, and she's manly. Her hands, voicebox, and face all freak me out...

[Speck Tater]

84. We are all ALIENS!

We are so technically and scientifically advanced that our life became infinitely boring; nothing new to learn, nothing new to do.

So we invented a total-immersion virtual reality video game called "Earthlife" and when we jack into the game we forget who we really are for the duration of the game, and role-play at being members of a mythical race of beings called "humans". And when we "die", as a human character, we "wake up" back in our real reality and realize who we actually are and that it was all just a game.

Then, after a break to hang out with our friends, we dive back into the game to role-play another human character for 80 or 100 years or so. (Which is the blink of an eye to immortal aliens like us.)

91. I think that Prince regent Phillip of UK massacred thousands of Greeks

Also, I don't like bright, sunny, airy rooms - I like dim, cozy, candlelit rooms.

104. I truly believe that when we sleep...

...we sometimes see OTHER peoples' dreams. I've had dreams that I've felt really had NOTHING to do with me.

[gate of the sun]

129. hey that could be

true.

[Blade]

106. I seriously...

believe I'm one of the very few people here who absolutely positively can't stand Monty Python. Whenever I see that sh!t, it's like I don't get it.

108. You are not alone.

That is some of the most dreary shit I've ever seen. I don't get it either.

I've read a few works of fiction and I just don't get it. I'll just wait for everything ever written to come out on DVD and watch the special features for background. :dunce:

114. My dad hates all fiction passionately.

It's lucky he doesn't live in the US under a fictional president. He'd go nuts!

115. I don't understand why the move "A Beautiful Mind" won awards.

I rented it and fell asleep before the end. Boring!!!!

[salinen]

121. I believe that one of my sperm

118. I liked "The Cable Guy"! Better yet...I wish the "angel" never saved...

...George Bailey in "It's a Wonderful Life" because it's a crapiful movie.

[Zuni]

140. I love the Cable Guy

I think the movie is hilarious

[terrya]

120. Julia Roberts is a no talent hack.

Why is this woman popular? She wasn't any great shakes in "Erin Brockavich", which she won the Best Actress Oscar for. Hell, I could have donned a wig, a fake pair of boobs, and done a better acting job than she did.

Julia Roberts is nothing special.

There, I said it! :-)

123. I do . . .

130. The Poles fought well in WWII

The whole charging tanks with horses and lances thing is pure bullshit.

They inflicted more casualties on the Nazis than all of the Scandavian countries combined.

They fought longer than most of the other invaded nations.

The Polish pilots were instrumental in the Battles of Britian and they were betrayed in post-war period.

I am not BTW polish at all.

However, these are provable facts.

The Poles were occupied first by the Germans and then the Soviets. Both talk crap about their performance during the war. Occupied people always get the short stick.

Nasty stuff.

[Screaming Lord Byron]

131. Sorry. I happen to agree with that. n/t

[ACK]

135. Damn you mean that the truth means something?

In the way people perceive history!?!

I thought only a few historians of the era actually knew this secret.

Even they do not mention it much.

It reminds me of the whole "debate" about ancient Egyptians being black.

Most historians shrugged and went, "No shit".

[Screaming Lord Byron]

136. Where I grew up in Scotland, there were thousands of Polish veterans

who had settled there after the war. That's where I got my info from, so I may be biased.

[ACK]

143. Don't think you are biased... Battle of Britian ... Poles instrumental

The Poles by the Brit's own admittance were instrumental in the Battle of Britian.

There is a statue somewhere in Britian. A friend that I knew (from Manchester) had a dad who fought or flew beside them. Something about them saving his life or being his big friend. Anyway, they would also stop at this statue beside the highway to pay tribute to these guys.

[ProfessorGAC]

137. Means Something To Me!

I agree with you original statement, too! That was a tougher fight for the Nazi's than they got out of Norway or France.

It wasn't Britain or the Soviets, but it wasn't that easy. Our own forces, in Iraq, both times, made the Poland/Nazi confrontation look like the Hunrded Years War by comparison.

And, yeah the truth matters. To me, history is supposed to be what actually happened.

141. The Poles fought well

with their meager resources in 1939, and as part of the UK army in the Polish Corps.

139. I think Jack Kerouac owes his popularity,

in no small part, to the fact that his first and last names rhyme. I really believe this. Everything else being the same, if his name were, say, Jack Porter, or Jack Elmendorf, probably no one today would have heard of him.

[alphafemale]

144. "Friends" was always a boring show that annoyed me.

I tried to watch it. I tried to "fit in."
yuck

[RandomKoolzip]

147. I don't like Prince.

Never did. I think his famous "musicianship" is overrated, his deliberate misspellings annoying, His songwriting weak, and frankly I hold him personally responsible for that horrid shitty "synth"-like drum sound we had to suffer through all through the 80's. Listen to most pop music before "1999" and "Purple Rain" and you'll hear full-bodied, breathy, natural drum sound...then compare it to Prince's brittle, artificial drums on "When Doves Cry..." Terrible. IMHO, the guy is all image, barely any talent. He's a sad cartoon.

Prince's true legacy will be that of introducing the very worst production aspects of the "New Wave" (tinny drums, dinky synth parts, pinched sound overall) to the Pop Mainstream, giving it an R&B slickness, and destroying the sound of Rock in the Mainstream throughout the 80's, or, at least giving Rock an innappropriate chrome sheen it did not warrant. He gave critical and commercial crediblity to SynthPop, for which I cannot forgive him.

I never liked that dude.

[catzies]

149. Jerry Seinfeld. Can't stand him, or that show of his everybody loves.

Oh, and I guess "Everybody Loves Raymond" except ME. :eyes:

150. I believe the reduction of the Morse requirement will KILL Ham Radio

They've dropped the requirement to a miserable FIVE words per minute ( I tested at TWENTY!) and the bands already sound like a virtual "Green Room" for the Gush Pfleghmball show.

When they do away with Morse in toto, as is expected by 2005, I predict that the Amateur airwaves will make CB of the 70's sound civilized.
