How can they even have the game after that?

Everything else will pale in comparison to the greatest performance of the national anthem in this countries long history.

Ariana Grande has an amazing voice.

Also, I understand that when you post pictures like that up of your body, you're opening yourself up to criticism, especially if you're a celebrity.

I also totally get that many people may not find her physically attractive.



I just hate the way it's expressed- it's so fucking demeaning. As a thin, flat woman, I'm tired of the vicious insults that insinuate that thin ladies (including myself) a) look like we're 12 year old girls, or b) 12 year old boys. It's just so incredibly immature. HAHA GUYS LOOK HOW CLEVER I AM INSULTING A SKINNY PERSON LIKE THAT! I'M SO EDGY AND ENLIGHTENED. YEAH! REALLY STICKING IT TO THE MAN / SOCIETY.
Okay, asshole.

If it's any consolation, I too find this obsession with oversized butts puzzling. I have no desire to be suffocated...

Opening Game?
But that was 5 months ago.

Or do you mean the Opening Game of the playoffs?

Personally, I don't think Ariana looks young because of her body but because of her face. Maybe the fact that she's a small person accentuates the impression, though. When I was around 22, I was mistaken for a fourteen year old.

Ariana has a 4 octave range, as claimed by many people who aren't neogaf posters.

She's about a note and a half short of four octaves live, though she could presumably go above what she's currently peaked at live. I don't think she has much potential for going lower, or at least it wouldn't sound good.

If were going for exciting then NBA should be the Nat pasttime.

But viewership and popularity wise, NFL is king.

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.
I don't particularly care for her, but that was much less self-indulgent than most renditions by pop stars. So, kudos for that.

I came in for naturals law, and I leave satisfied.
I don't know much about her vocal range. But it satisfies my niece so whatever.

She isn't Mariah in her prime, but she's better now *.*

Mariah's still a better technical singer, but Ariana's voice is in much better condition. I think it depends on whether Mariah is in good voice on a particular evening.

how are you, B!TCH? How is your day going, B!ITCH?
Out of curiosity, if a black person were to go into a thread about some black actor where a bunch of people were making racist comments referencing his/her skin color and a monkey, and that person said, "dude as a black person this is disrespectful wtf," would you also tell them to stop making everything about themselves?

Um... of all the examples you could have chosen to make your point, that's the one you chose...

Anyway to answer your question I don't see what being black has to do with finding something racist offensive, racism is offensive regardless of your own race so you don't have to point out your own race to justify being offended as if that somehow added to the credibility of your opinion.

You can make a perfectly valid argument about "skinny shaming" without mentioning anything about yourself - how about we just accept people as they are instead of making fun of the way they look? You strike me as someone who wants to get attention for who they are/how they look, hence the constant dropping of information about yourself when it's not necessarily relevant to the discussion.
 
Great pipes. She'll truly be something when she has some life experience to match it. Right now she's comes across as flat to me.

But I have faith.

Why doesn't someone just create an Ariana Grand OT? I see a thread about her at least three times a week.
