From my perspective, he's a hyped up talentless eejit who believes in his own hype. A waste of space and he invites derision. He's made a lot of money, granted, but so do pron stars. Sooner gone, sooner forgotten - just like what's his name.

There are some large threads on the forum recently hating on Justin Bieber. Some food for thought: * If you don't like his music, don't listen to it. * Just because he looks different than you doesn't mean you have to call him a girl. Remember, if you're reading this, you're in IT and you're probably weird, and probably awkward. * (For Parents) Remember what its like when somebody picks on your kid... * If he is retiring from music, I'm personally jealous! He got in, made tons of money and can now do whatever he wants. The rest of us will continue going to work. Hogan

Crappy advice. "If you can't stand the threads on biba, don't read them." Are we only entitled to comment positively? Or are we actually still allowed an opinion?

The thing that makes him look different is the fact that he looks like one. If there is a similarity, people will point it out.

Sure - did you see my red stapler by the way? I can't find it since they moved my office into the basement.

..is part of biology. You can't eliminate nature, only nurture it.
"But then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didnt bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and its not okay because if they take my stapler then Ill, Ill, Ill set the building on fire..."

It is not particularly him, or his music making me upset. It is the fact that he (and whole bunch of todays "musicians", "artist" or whatever they should be called) think that they can do everything they want just because they got a lot of money. I can forgive teenagers throwing eggs at someones house, but this is definately something a 20 year old isn't supposed to do. The same goes for spraying a wall because the nearby restaurant didn't give him "any crayons while waiting for dinner". And if someone like that (Goes for all the pricks, not only Bieber) becomes someone teenagers look up to I am not wondering why todays teenagers became what they are today. Bruce Springsteen came from a working ghetto, made it to the top but was never involved in a scandal (apart from the divorce from his 1st wife). The same goes for The Gaslight Anthem, Bryan Adams and many more. Don't tell me that it is hard to live a reasonable lifestyle.

Do we actually need a reason? I think not.

That's what I tell people who complain about politicians and how screwed up the country is. People are screwed up by nature. If you have a government of the people, by the people and for the people, by definition you've pretty much guaranteed that you'll have a screwed up government. :-D

Exactly. It's the people that don't run for office that I would actually vote for. :) So, on a side note, when do we start the take-over? Oh wait... ;) Marc

I don't hate him. I do however hate the fact our society rewards him with riches while nurses, school teachers and others who contribute so much more to society than he does are ignored. If he retires and uses his riches for the greater good (think Bill Gates foundation) I will respect him.

This isn't about what Justin thinks of your statements. Its about respecting others around you. I learned this the hard way... I was quite down on President George W. Bush when he was in office and after. I happen to be a fan of the current US president. That being said, others around me say many hateful things about a man I respect. While they have a right to their own opinion, I'm not a fan of it. More importantly, I realized how I may have made others feel when I was down on President Bush. Learning respect for others even when you disagree with them. Its one thing to make factual statements about aspects of his music, its another to declare it cr@p because you don't enjoy it. I'm not saying a better person, but I'm always trying to become a better person. Hogan
