First off, let me say that I'm perfectly aware that nobody's posted here for years, that the half of the people on here are probably gone by now...that this may not be the right place to post this...
BUT
Lord, please answer me one question. Why is everyone so down on Poodle Hat ???
On every single individual song discussion, there is SOMEBODY--often 3 or four people--saying that they don't like this song, it's way below par, it's immature....
Well, although I am probably no longer in the minority, let me just say that I liked PH. I didn't even expect to like it. At the time I was not the rabid fan I am now. But I liked it. GiF was amazing. I don't think anyone else on the face of the earth could have done that as well as Al. I was screaming with joy the first time I heard it. No, literally. Just for the record, I do not think it was a below par ALbum. Just GiF and TD make it so amazingly awesome that all of Chuck Norris's fans would not even begin to protest its awesomeness. Pardon me, I'm sugar- and caffeine-high. I desperately need to get some sleep. And it's hard to sleep standing on this soapbox.

Well, 5 people out of over 2,000 registered members hardly counts as "everybody". Yes, a few people thought ACS was a little immature, because of the first segment of it. I like the song, and I like PH as well. I'm sure there were more positives about PH than you're saying.
4 words that Al said to me that blew me away:
"How's Problem Child doing?" - 7/12/11
So awesome!

Yes... but then Al proved he could be more clever than that in the other two verses. I think he did constipated as the first one cause if he didn't, so many people would be like "Man, he missed the most obvious one!"algonacchick @ May 24 2006, 05:05 PM wrote: Yes, a few people thought ACS was a little immature, because of the first segment of it.

"Everybody" was figurative. And I didn't say it was the same five people. Can't remember if it was, but if it was a different five for every song, that's sixty people. Besides, however overtired I was at the time, which was a lot, I do recall mentioning that it was silly and most of the people I objected to hadn't posted in years. I was just a little mad that there were enough party poopers on every single topic to bring the general tone of approval for PH down.
So, forgive me if I sound hasty and misinformed. Please?

Ok, I'll forgive you. These might have still been first impressions. Some people didn't get PH right away. You will find that most of us do like it. Some of the songs had to grow on people. I don't think there were 60 people that didn't like PH, or thought it was below par. I certainly don't think that.
Every single forum? I'm in this one, and it's the only one of it's kind that I know of.
And yes, Dingo, you're right about the other two verses, although I thought the first one was funny, anyway.

Thanks
. I should have said topic. Sorry. Will change it.
BTW, I thought most of it was first impressions. I knew the topic was AGES old. But they were saying some pretty nasty stuff about the last 5 songs on PH..."worst ever parody," "I hated that", etc.
