I hate that old, tired ass Facebook meme that compares Run The World (Girls) to Bohemian Rhapsody. Like, not only is it a nonsensical comparison for a multitude of reasons, but the meme is plain incorrect on some parts.
They compare RTW's hook to the entirety of BR's lyrics. Most of the numerous writers and producers on RTW were credited because of the original sample, and it implies that a song with so many collaborators can't be as good as a song that has only one writer or producer. And really, every member of Queen should have an official credit to their name for that song. It's comparing a 2010 pop-R&B song to a 70's rock suite. Neither of these songs are in the same genre, same lane, or try to achieve the same goals or reactions from their respective audiences.
The meme only exists to attempt to discredit Bey as an artist, or to say that she's untalented. Maybe people, some of my friends in fact, have dared to call her untalented and cited this ****ing meme as some sort of proof. Look, you don't have to like Beyoncé as a person or an artist. However, to call her untalented is extremely ignorant and simply a lie. I can say that I don't listen to Queen, and I can't stand Bohemian Rhapsody after too many theatre after-parties. But I won't deny Queen and Freddie Mercury's extreme talent and legacy, because that would be ignorant of me.
In summation, put some respek in Beyoncé's name, goddammit. And say no to Facebook memes.

The fact that people dismiss anime before even giving it a chance. It really pisses me off. Like, do I look like a FOOL? If I'm so interested in it obviously there's something good about it to have caught my interest. Then they have the nerve to say "oh but it looks like a cartoon isn't that for kids" while watching ****ing Teen Wolf on their parent's LQ dell pc's. Like...ok I'm not seeing the correlation..? So just because something is animated ... it's for kids? Like..have you watched South Park? The Simpsons? Family Guy? Use your head pls you dumb bitch.
