Oh boy, I read through this thread and I needed a drink. Non-alcoholic, obviously.
Let's see here.
There's...
Naruto. This link sums it up pretty well.
MLP. As much as I love the show and certain parts of the fandom
hi /mlp/!, it's not the greatest ♥♥♥♥ ever. There's a good few flaws and bad episodes and let's not even get started on Equestria Girls. Then there's the other parts of the fandom, a good example being /r/mylittlepony which are so cancerous it's not even funny.
Minecraft. Used to love it, can barely stand it anymore. It's such a shallow game, with a few games that outperform it (Terraria springs to mind straight away), yet it's so hyped up and eaten up by 11 year-olds who have played only a few other games. Let's not mention the amount of LPs and music videos on YouTube. It's an alright game with mods and plugins, but
it shouldn't need those.
Hunger Games. The books are good, but the movies are eh (from what I've seen of them). Then there's the huge fanbase who barely read anything and think it's the greatest ♥♥♥♥ ever.
A lot of music artists, good examples being Nirvana, Linkin Park, Nickelback, Green Day, One Direction, PSY, Katy Perry, One Direction and Justin Bieber. Some of those artists are OK, but the others are pretty bad and don't deserve that large a fanbase.
reddit. No, recycling your epic memes
xD from other sites does not make you funny, it makes you ♥♥♥♥ at creating OC. Come up with something good. The exception to reddit is a few subreddits that know that the memes spammed around the rest of the site aren't funny. This website is overrated as a whole and really isn't that good considering there's a few other sites that produce quality content.
CoD. Everything before and up to Modern Warfare was alright, but otherwise it's not that good and I can't understand why there's that many people who love it.
Social media. It's alright for catching up with people, but... eh. Not keen on it.
The Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park and the like. The Simpsons was alright up until season ~8, then came all the guest stars and ♥♥♥♥ which dragged down the show as a whole. I wonder how people still like it. The other shows that are similar to it feel like poorly constructed black comedy that tries to cram as many bad jokes in as possible (there's much better ways to do black comedy, seriously to anyone who finds these shows go lurk 4chan sometime, preferably not /b/ and you'll end up finding better stuff there) and fails hilariously at it. Can't get around the fact that a lot of people still like these mediocre shows.
There we go, my opinions on what I think is overrated. Have fun dissecting them.
Seriously though that argument up there was pretty bad
