Do we prefer to love or hate?

People are just more likely to complain about something than praise it. A couple of examples,

-BBCs letters page (145) - most letters compain about something.
-Sports Phone Shows (Radio or TV) - most people complain about results/performance/not spending enough on transfers/ref decisions etc.

Yo, AUKN.

I saw Glee Live last night and **** loved it.

I will see Transformers 3 soon and want to gouge my eyes out.

I'm undeniably complex like that. It's easier to pick apart and criticise where things go slightly wrong, too.

Why go see a film that you know will make you want to gouge your eyes out =S
 
Because I can then argue with my friends about my superior taste in film. I'm also of the belief you can't hate something until you experience it yourself.

Oh shi-! Seriously? Was it actually awesome?
I was kind of dreading it going in, and the audience were a really strange assortment of people but as soon as they started with "Don't Stop Believing" I was so so so sold. They are phenomenal, all of them. They done a few really funny skits, too. (AND GWYNETH PALTROW AS HOLLY HOLLIDAY TURNED UP AND SANG CEE LO GREEN!) I have my problems with the show and its writing but you're really missing out if you don't appreciate the talent those guys have. Seeing it in that context, it kind of made it all make sense. Thousands of people, for so many nights, all in love with this one thing. Truly phenomenal.

/Glee. Reviewed.

Did they sing their cover of "Friday"? It's the only cover that actually sounds better by them than by the original artist.
Lol, I thought so too. Didn't do Justin Bieber "Baby" either. The opening-act mocked 'Friday' though so that's something!
