Black olives are a lot tastier than green olives.
The only tobacco worth smoking comes in the form of expensive south American cigars.

Stephen Hawking is massively "overrated" ( man, I hate that word).
Perfectly built/proportionate male body is more visually attractive than that of female ( 0% gay here)
Probably been said here, but Jackson's LOTR movies, are, eh?, more a spectacular mediocrity. I think Hobbit movies, kind of showed this.
We're 100% living in age of Idiocracy.
Most rpg stories are actually of poor quality, next to adventure games.

He's a brilliant physicist, one of the greatest minds of that field and all of human history. If you're saying beyond that, and on the scope of information beyond his expertise, I'd say you have a better point. Dr. Michio Kaku for example has a tendency to say a lot of stupid stuff pertaining to information outside his area of expertise. Not everything, mind you, but he's had his moments of 'foot-in-mouth' syndrome. It's possible, though I think it depends on how you tone a body. I think a toned athletic female body with smaller, rounder breasts is ideal. I see what you're getting at though. I have a friend who lives the 'Peter Jackson' way, as I call it, telling me how he loves LOTR, the Star Trek reboot movies, etc. and insists that puts him on the same level as the people who can differentiate all eras of Quenta and Sindarin linguistics, or the people who know the finer points of legality/acceptability of Trill Re-association. I just faintly smile and nod my head condescendingly. I'm with you on this point. Worst of all? The Star Wars fans. Everyone talks about how they love Star Wars now. What do I do? I remember when I got ridiculed in school for reading Star Wars novels. And now, I'm so much of a fan that I quit the franchise after Disney nuked the EU. I've come full-circle. Yes and no - yes, given the general trend of many who slump backwards socially and societally as our civilization moves forward, but no in the number of people who are becoming more vocal and invested in social growth and development than ever before. Nothing embodies this more than BioWare games, to be honest.

Most rpg stories are actually of poor quality, next to adventure games. 1) I agree 2) Think the perfect form for each is as attractive as the other. 3) Disagree, I think they were really good and did a far better job than I thought possible of capturing, looks, moods and such. Hobbit was a tier below the LOTR series though. 4) I agree 5) Not sure what to think on the on the last one and tough to compare because the design of games tends to put shackles on genres.

Perfectly built/proportionate male body is more visually attractive than that of female ( 0% gay here) Personally I don't think any male body is visually more attractive than any female body. Then again my personal definition of a 'perfectly built/proportionate' female body has generous hips/round butt/thick thighs and C-cup-or-less boobs. Most men don't meet those 'requirements' at all. But that's just my opinion. And I'm like 13% gay here...

That was like reading my own thoughts. I sympathize, and find myself in a similar place. When I talk about Tom Bombadil and the River Daughter, and get looked at like an idiot making stuff up, I want to drown them. I just walk away... And don't get me started on Star Wars. The truth is, I work in Film. I will eventually work with Abrams, and I will likely get fired from that show almost immediately as I will express my displeasure with Mr. Jar Jar and his molestation of both Trek and Star Wars. God dammit.

Beards are gross. They're public hair on your face and they're bacteria/fungus factories. With proper grooming it is clean without food or bacteria.
Are beards good for your health?
"In this study, published in the Journal of Hospital Infection, they swabbed the faces of 408 hospital staff with and without facial hair...
Well, the researchers were surprised to find that it was the clean-shaven staff, and not the beardies, who were more likely to be carrying something unpleasant on their faces.
The beardless group were more than three times as likely to be harbouring a species known as methicillin-resistant staph aureus on their freshly shaven cheeks. MRSA is a particularly common and troublesome source of hospital-acquired infections because it is resistant to so many of our current antibiotics..."
I love my beard. Anyone who tells me to shave it can kiss my ass.

A good rump is a thing of beauty, be it male or female. A beard is a bunch of scraggly pubes. There is no call for them in polite society. A beautifully waxed handlebar mustache, sure.

I could grow a good beard but as a practical and not superficial man I don't grow one because they are hot, itchy, sweaty and horribly unpractical in sports / at work. Suffering just for looks is not manly, its only dumb.

I wonder if the same applies to 'other places' where hair naturally grows... I could grow a good beard but as a practical and not superficial man I don't grow one because they are hot, itchy, sweaty and horribly unpractical in sports / at work. Suffering just for looks is not manly, its only dumb. To each his/her own ofcourse To each his/her own ofcourse. Personally, when I shave my beard off, I just hate the feeling: the dry/rubber skin, the itchy stubs after half a day which feel like sanding paper, not to mention the lack of hair to stroke through when I try to look smart. Also the wife apparently likes it. But yeah a beard and/or moustache is not for everyone.

Transcended OneI never completely shave my beard off because I do not want to irritate my facial skin on a daily basis, I use a hair trimmer on its lowest setting, it leaves like a very very short stubble. (about 1 millimeter or so) and keeps the skin perfectly intact. Also saves me the troubles of shaving foam and its several times quicker. Shave smart.

Well a soft stubbled face is more "masculin" than a clean shaven one. The time of the subway-sexuals is slightly in the past nowadays. Then again: saying a stubble is more masculin than a babyfaced look can be considered sexist these days. Because of transgenders/asexuals/whatever...

I don't know, I think beards can be quite dignified when groomed properly. I for one have been told I have an excellent beard when I grow one.
