Yeah, because it's impossible to just not like that kind of music...

Clicking on that link implies supporting Lady Gaga in some fashion, so yeahno.

You're missing a great Command and Conquer reference.

I'm not watching that piece of crap to look for it, so enlighten me.

[General Battuta]

You're intrigued, I can telllllllll

[Snail]

Battuta, you facetious bastard!

I've never played them, so it'd be lost on me anyway.

And seriously, pop music as a whole sucks ass, but Gaga's version of it is like suckage squared.

Lady Gaga is amazing and everyone who doesn't think so is just insecure in his masculinity.

+1

She's so awesome she even makes AvP into a worthwhile game

So, you are feminist to the point of calling anything not female a misogynist, but a bimbo who runs around effectively naked in order to sell more records is OK?

Wasn't she nearly killed in a wardrobe malfunction a couple of weeks back?

It seems like you can't even finish a sentence without being a retard.

I'm guessing you have no appreciation of classical statues. Those darn things all take their clothes off to get good spots in museums.

Also, you do the red text thing by typing 'backslash me', like /me is showing Liberator how to do this.

* General Battuta sayeth 'behold!'

I imagine that once you get over your terror of sex you will be more relaxed about such things.

[Mongoose]

Is it wrong to be terrified of sex with Lady Gaga?

[General Battuta]

Not at all. Part of her charm is that she's so darn creepy.

[Bob-san]

Is it wrong to be terrified of sex with Lady Gaga?

Now one point to be made is that, when I at least listen to music, I don't stare at a picture of the "artist" or "artists". That could get rather gay rather quickly.

And as for Lady Gaga not being that hot? Not everyone likes bleach blondes with more makeup than common sense. And I'm terrified of the idea of having sex with Lady Gaga. It's not a question of which STD I'd get... it's a question of which STD would I NOT get!!

[Mongoose]

I'm just envisioning her moaning, "OOH LAA OOH LAA LAA LAA LAA LAAAAAA!"

*shudder*

[Ford Prefect]

I think her persona has an appeal similar to those of a lot of the glam rock and Europop musicians she consciously borrows from. I don't really listen to her music (or most of her influences either) but the whole aesthetic universe she's assembled carries a colorful kind of allure.

[General Battuta]

Her suggestion is that the only reason Gaga's music should frighten you (rather than inspiring, say, a cordial 'not for me') is that you are afraid of sex and female sexuality because you can't possess it or master it.

Thus the tendency to assess her by her sexuality and then demean it as meaningless, since women are judged by how desirable they are (a trait she is happy to satirize at some length.)

[iamzack]

No, it's because of exactly what he said. "You're such a feminist you call everything not female a misogynist." It's just a retarded ****ing thing to say.

[General Battuta]

That too.

There is the question, though, of why a nearly naked woman who does not appear to be bothered by such nearly naked state inspires such terror.

She was a Catholic schoolgirl and apparently very studious. I didn't pay the slightest bit of attention to her until she started causing such an uproar, and was pleased to discover her music was both hilarious and self-aware.

And she's cool enough to either directly or through her creative team put Command and Conquer, Star Wars, and Dune references in her music videos. That's pretty badass.
