...intentionally confusing.
I actually did not make a single comment about your original subject of TLC in any of my posts (I'm sure you won't go back and check, but I just thought I'd point this out nonetheless). Only the second sentence you wrote applies to me. The first half applies to somebody else, maybe Masterless again.
But as long as you brought it up: I don't think much of TLC videos to begin with (Left Eye and her "controversial" condom eyepatch from 1992's "Ain't Too Proud To Beg") and "No Scrubs" had a catchy beat to it that got old REAL fast, but most importantly... "No Scrubs'" lyrics are HIGHLY offensive to short men! Kids called me a scrub all the time because of my height. I don't care what they actually meant by scrubs in the song, the fact is, "scrubs" is a demeaning and vulgar phrase used to describe short men and people should be protesting it simply because of the term's use in the title! It's the same as saying "No Niggers" or "No Japs" or "No Gooks" in the title, then creating some alternate meaning of "niggers" or "japs" or "gooks" in the body in order to justify the use of the word! Frankly, I'm appalled and all of you should be as well! This is the most blatantly offensive song to short men since Randy Newman's "[We should just kill all of the] Short People"! (I'll ignore that "[Don't Want No] Short Short Man" song from 1994, because that was the EDITED version of that song-- the unedited version referred to something else, something I have no reason to be offended by! :) However, the EDITED version was obviously a bigger atrocity to short men than any other song before or since).
sincerely,

PS I'm sure I will remember who made "Short [Short] Man" just as soon as I hit the post button...RRRRRrrrrr
