Though mediocrity is perhaps a kindness for Carter.

(I'm kind of bitter about this right now, so forgive me for the overly-localized reference. You could probably extrapolate it to newspapers in general.)
Um, yeah, the Trib completely blows. The business section is nearly useless.
OCS and I are proclaiming, with varying degrees of vehemence directly correlated with who is ahead on tonight's drinking, that this thread has gone from excellent mediocrity (the Corolla...we up til recently owned one and I was all, hey! and then I was all, yeah...) to displays of unadulterated shit (Mich Ultra?!? Thomas Kinkade, Painter of Shite?).

But Kinkade is a perfectly cromulent painter.Spoiler (mouseover to read):

Yeah, I kinda waffled on whether or not to include him. I decided he qualified due to his utter insipidness.Quote:

I'm strangely fascinated by shows like that, that are on forever, but you never watch them and you never encounter anyone else who ever mentions watching them.Quote:

Agree. I blame myself. Mediocrity is actually much harder to finger than real crap. I submit this:Quote:

(I just reread "Painter of Shite." Don't know how I missed it. Made me puke up Diet Coke. My mother is heavily invested, literally, in the Painter of Light.)
Oh man, that Russell Stover Valentine's Sampler embodies the very soul of this thread. Nicely played.
Also, NCIS is a really good example of reaching for the middle rung. The uber-formulaic character profiles, and the tired, "aren't we having fun" witty banter are incredibly uninspired. Yet, the show somehow doesn't actually suck.
Hmm. That looks like something that was once nice rendered lame by inept remodeling.
I've always been amused by Denny's gluing the word "diner" under their name.
Does that really conjure up a better image of the joint? I still imagine waddling seniors tethered to oxygen tanks and wielding dollar-store tip calculators asking a lot of questions about the soup.
That's at 3:00PM. At 3:00AM, it's a bunch of drunk people recently ejected at last call, dropping Grand Slam debris into their laps. Equally offputting and sad. :)Quote:

Oooh, Necco wafers. Give me the mediocre black ones.

I like Barq's, too. Hmm. I must be in the wrong thread.

Possibly well intentioned, this became a muddle of navel gazing and under achievement:
Musically, I always thought this song was more interesting than the atrocious faux-gospel-pop of "We Are The World" (it was written by Lionel Ritchie and Michael Jackson, and it shows), but lyrically, it's awful, and a lot of the singers are no bueno.
Wow, now that's mediocre. ^^^
