    Mischa Barton. I don't know why, but I don't care how much cellulite she has on her thighs or how many pointless direct-to-video movies she's in, she'll always be my Mealy.

    Gibson. For as much flak as they catch for anything and everything, I still don't care about any of it. As far as I'm concerned, they get a pass because, well, they're Gibson. If you want a Gibson, only a Gibson is a Gibson. If something there bothers you, vote with your wallet and get something else. Gibson isn't going to change just for you. Because they're Gibson. Even when they're made in China out of popsicle sticks and recycled tampon applicators, they'll still be Gibson. Sort of.

    Deceased celebrities. Probably time to get some new material, at that point. Find some new goofballs to riff on.

    Saturday Night Live. Don't like it? Don't watch it. However bad or good it is or isn't, those of us with no social lives need it. End of discussion.

    Pizza Hut. See Gibson, above.

    "Above Criticism"? Are you fer-effin'-real? We don't need to worry about that here- How about "beneath Contempt", is more like it.

    As opposed to when they're right?

    I dunno about anything being above criticism but there's a lot of stuff out there that's pointless to criticize because criticism isn't going to make anything better or change anyone's mind.

    On a serious note, are we referring to subjective things like art, or objective things that are actual facts? Both?

    It is possible that mankind is on the threshold of a golden age; but, if so, it will be necessary first to slay the dragon that guards the door, and this dragon is religion.

    But seriously...criticism and judgment are an incredibly important part of how animals survive and thrive. Unfortunately, the words can carry a bad connotation.

    Silly question. Few rational people will say that they hold things "above criticism". To do so indicates a belief in the perfection of something, and an unquestioned faith in that thing . . . no matter what the topic, it's possible to find something to dislike if you dig far enough and ask enough questions. Criticism isn't the negative that many people seem to believe it is though . . . criticism leads to questioning - the root of all knowledge.
