I survived the shopping trip, came home and found I'd been asked by

_bettina_ to rant about people that don't like Chris, and you know I can do that in a very concise way.

People who don't like Chris are FRELLING INSANE!

However, I shall elaborate.

See I can't understand how anyone couldn't like him. The man is gorgeous, he's sex on legs, totally hot, breath takenly beautiful and if you can't see that you're obviously not looking hard enough. It's not hard, take a moment and look at him, look at his eyes. Tell me they're not beautiful. Tell me! You can't can you, and you know why? Because they are beautiful! In fact everything about him is beautiful, his face, his hair, his pointy ears, his lips, his goatee and man, don't get me started on people that don't like the horns or his old hair cuts because you know what? Who cares if they're different to the norm? What the fuck is normal anyway?

Which is another thing, and man this is the one thing guaranteed to set me off. He's put on weight. SO FUCKING WHAT! How dare people think that's a reason to dislike him? How dare they?! I'm spluttering with rage just thinking that anyone would chose to dislike him because of that. He's not perfect, no one is perfect. If you're an Nsync fan how can you sit and say that you don't like one of the members because he's fat? For one thing HE'S NOT FAT! For fuck's sake, he's heavier now than he was back then but all that does is make him real. He's not an artificial perfect popstar groomed to an inch of his life and made to tow the bullshit pr line. When I have the misfortune to wander somewhere where some idiotic wanker says they doesn't like Chris because he's fat I want to reach through the screen grab their stupid looking teenie head and beat it off the wall. Then do it again just for the sake of it.

Then there's the people who don't like him because he's childish and goes too far sometimes. For fucks sake. Do you really think that's all he is? The 'crazy one' the joker, a one dimensional cardboard cutout. Are you that stupid that you'll judge on an image shaped by pr spin? Look past the surface for once, see the man who cares deeply, the man who doesn't spend every moment of his life laughing and playing jokes. The man who works bloody hard to do something he loves. Go on look, except I know you won't. You'll just keep believing what you're told. Reading the same lies over and over again because you're too lazy to look past the image and stupid enough to believe what you're told. Admit it, you believe the Creation Myth don't you? You can probably even do the hand movements and diagram to accompany it. Loser.

More generally, people who don't like him because he's in a boyband. Get over yourselves. Chris can sing, he can sing beautifully and if all you haters can't see beyond the boyband label I pity you. I pity you because you're so afraid of being seen as uncool that you'll never know how talented he is.You can sit there listening to your indie music or whatever crap the so called cool kids listen to these days and mock him for being in a boyband but all you're doing is showing what a sad pathetic person you are. Someone who wouldn't know an independent thought even if it hit you in the head and yelled, 'hi, I'm an independent thought.

I could go on and on, but I'll sum up with this. If you don't like Chris you're clearly insane, and he's NOT FUCKING FAT!!!!!!!

PS, non ranty. Mouse, I have the stories and will upload when I've had my shower :)

*hugs* Thanks Terri.

(are you on msn? the university server firewall doesn't even let me use aim express, the wanker.)

Thank you!

For the compliment and agreeing :)

Why thank you :)

I.LOVE.YOU.TOO!

We all love Chris :D

Thank you!

I know exactly what you mean. I'm not blind to the fact he's put on weight, it's just the snide comments about him being fat that annoy the hell out of me because he's not at all. He's not skinny but he's not fat either.

Chris and Lance love, it's a wonderful thing :)

And the thing is? I've always gone after the different. ALWAYS. a-ha was never big here (only when Take on Me was released). Did that matter to me? No. I faithfully bought their other albums when they were released, whether they got radio play or not (Hell, I still do!). There's others (RObbie Williams, who never really did much here, Espen Lind, etc). I just always go for that. It's uber sexy to me. Why? Dunno. Maybe because, at least in Chris's case, it says a lot about him. He doesn't care. He did it his way, not the pretty boy, "correct" way. Says a lot about him and inner strength.

*sigh* Is it my turn for a rant? ;-)

I'm not, sorry :(

damn.

we'll find someway somehow though. :)

I get that people are shallow, I'm shallow myself sometimes. What I don't get is people not liking him anymore or making snide comments because he put on weight. He's still the same Chris.

Chris and Lance love, it's a wonderful thing :)

Indeed! :-D

Wow, that's one hell of a good rant, sis, you rock! You rock even more that you're actually the first one who really wrote something ranty. I've seen this meme being played by several people and it was sorta disappointed because the responses really three lines long and there was no passion - a rant needs to be passionate! Or else it's not a rant *pout* And your response? Is the best *eg*

And yay, our archive will come back to life! *bounce*

WORD, Sister.

Seriously--I agree with everything you said. And most especially about the people who are dissing him for his weight. Grrrrrrrrrr. Makes me want to hurt people a really lot.

A *really* lot.

Bravo!

*applauds*

I agree with everything you said, except for one (becauseidontlikefacialhairandithinkhesgorgeouswithoutit). But yeah, it pisses me off when anyone says they don't like any other person because of their weight, or height, or ethnic background or whatever. People are people. I thought he was adorable in the pictures from fall 2003. He's gorgeous no matter what he weighs. He's. Just. Gorgeous! He is totally sex on legs!

*humps Chris' leg*

And OMG how sweet and caring is this guy! I loved the story someone posted a month or so back that Chris was in a toy store buying toys to donate to kids. Not that he sent money, not that he sent some hired assistant to go buy things, Chris himself was in a store picking stuff out to give to charity for kids. I love him for those things he does.

*humps Chris' other leg*

But, but, but... surely there aren't any people, who don't like AJ.

*frets* Don't burst my bubble.

The shocker is the fact that there are people that think JC is stupid and flighty.

*kicks them*

I don't even know, what JC is, but he is adorable. I like JC best.
If, you know, there weren't any Backstreet Boys or Joey. Musn't forget about the Joey.

Oh, and for the record: Joey isn't fat either.
So, and now I have strayed far from any AJ or Chris related topic. But I feel better. *nods*

And AJ's not fat either! *fumes* I can't believe the Backstreet teenies sometimes.

Somehow, I have a feeling that stupid and flighty are the LAST things JC is. grrrrrrrrrr

Wordy McWORD!

Chris has always been and always will be number one. So. Much. LOVE.

I bow down to you for this rant. I'm so sick of hearing people tell me Chris is fat or ugly. The man is absolutely beautiful and anyone who thinks he's nothing more then a joker has obviously never looked into his eyes and seen the depth there.

*blink*

AJ? Fat? What?

*headdesk*

He is not fat! He is beeeeyewTfull! (beatiful.) *g* I think both Chris and JC are tied for me. There's just so many things about Chris that just... ugh, I don't see how people say he's ugly or the one dimensional jokester. Chrissssss... *goes off to swoon*

So like - I ~~kinda~~ like the bigger (and the only reason I say bigger is - cause I don't think he's fat but dude he's not the stick he once was - thank gods) Chris better. And also, yeah, what you said. :)

*points at icon*

As much as I can agree with you, and use the same logic on anybody who doesn't like AJ, Justin, JC or any of the sparklikes, I should probably never get you mad EVER. Period.

meep!

Thank you!

There's so many things I've wanted to say, about the weight thing especially. I just hate that because he's put weight on and isn't the stick he used to be there's comments about how fat he is, and he's really not.

I agree, rants do have to be about passion or they're not rants, just statements really.

When I saw what Bettina had asked for I had the perfect excuse for a rant I've had inside for a while. I may have to do it more often ;)

Our archive is totally coming back to life! *bounces with you*
