Top Ten Overrated Things

Here is another top ten list from Mildlymiffed.com
Because here, we (I) can't get enough of them. It was a wise man, whose name I forget, who said, "The human being differs from lesser animals by it's penchant for top ten lists."

I feel that there are certain things that are prevalent in our culture that makes large numbers of people go all gaga and leaves the rest of us feeling that we should really be playing catch-up. There are also, other things, that small groups of people cannot shut up about, despite the rest of us telling them to do so. This list is a combination of the those two things. I give you the Mildly Miffed Top Ten list of of the Most Overrated Things on Earth. Hopefully, you will learn to be as content with their existence (and popularity) as I have learned to be.


10: Maddox                       (Not the Best Page in the Universe despite the misleading title)
9: Mocking Hipsters        (I was doing this back when everyone else was still making fun of Emos.)
8: Mad Men                       (I’m glad the Emmy’s finally figured out this one.)
7: Dating                              (It’s too stressful. I’m just doing it to prove I am not antisocial.)
6: Fantasy Football          (I like fantasy, I like football, but I just don’t think this combination is optimal.)
5: Wedding Traditions    (By all means, get married, but can we skip the chicken dance?)
4: The Grammar Police  (You understood me. Stop being a jerk. It doesn’t make you appear smarter.)
3: Bacon                               (It’s not the culinary answer to everything! Grow up, people.)
2: Getting Drunk               (OK, why would I want to impair my reasoning and motor skills?)
1: Country Music              (I have no reason to apologize.)

By the way, there is one item on this list that I actually do really like. I just feel that it is not worthy of the worship our society gives it. Also, there is one item on this that would appear in direct contradiction to my Top Ten List of the Best Things in All of Creation. I might post that later, but I am afraid everyone would question my sanity if I did.
