Poll question: Which is More Offensive?
Edited on Fri Jan-16-09 05:56 PM by prodn2000
Which of these actions is more offensive?

Beyonce Knowles (and the rest of Destiny's Child) performing at the first Bush inaugural or "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)"?

:shrug:

1. I HATE that fucking song!
I'm vaguely offended by the lyrics, seems sexist that women only have sex to snag a guy into marriage. Unless Beyonce is a lot deeper than me and I'm misinterpreting things.

3.  I would have put "performance at asterisk's performance"
Edited on Fri Jan-16-09 06:05 PM by FarceOfNature
but that only happens once. That song happens every fucking day 10 times a day. :argh: Oh and I'm stealing your smiley.

On edit: I'm on a Spanish keyboard and don't know how to do asterisk :dunce:

12. Besides the refrain of Uh-oh-oh-ohs, I think you pretty much included all of the lyrics of that song
in your post.

:rofl:

13. Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It) is not music
It is an atrocity.

5. wait, she performed at Bush's inaugural too?
Edited on Fri Jan-16-09 06:37 PM by FarceOfNature
I'm confused. She's performing at Obama's too, which doesn't really make me like her more regardless.
