Millions disagreed with you, which of course means nothing more than everybody’s tasters are different. 🙂

“In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida”

That’s a common mispronunciation of “In-A-Gadda-Da-This”.

Millions perhaps agree with me. What is this? Mob think. That’s a liberal notion.

This contestant didn’t know the word declension to a crappy song from 1983. Forty years ago.

Pat sajak kindly asked social media denizens to consider the pressure these people are under

I still can’t figure that one out, and I’ve tried to sing it 100s of times!

“Game shows seem to get more ridiculous over time.”


Isn’t that the truth!? Jeopardy with their trans gender,
same sex partners as contestants. FREAK ME OUT! Had these ‘folks’ been
seen on Let’s Make A Deal, might have been a bit more understanding.

Obviously not. I believe I am the only one that brought up the fact that millions disagree with you that it was a crappy song. But I then further added, that fact means nothing more than everyone's tasters are different. I was not trying to demean your tastes, nor was I trying to change your opinion, I was merely pointing out that your opinion neither rules nor should it be dismissed.

I'm sure millions most likely do agree with you, and perhaps billions never heard the song.

You provided us with your opinion, and I, in return, provided my opinion. Apparently you are incapable of hearing someone else's opinion that disagrees with your opinion. That my FRiend, sounds more like the liberal (leftist) mindset of today's world. I merely provided a factoid.

Read my post #59 where I give my opinion of why this contestant most likely missed what was clearly written on the board, and stated what he thought the word was. If he thought the word was these, it is hardly likely that he hated the song, for I doubt he would have said these instead of this. Most would have no clue what the lyrics might be in the first place with regards to a song they hated.

But, honestly, you need to chill, for I did offer up a smile with my statement. Perhaps you do not know what a smile indicates? It indicates that someone is playing with you, not being critical of you.

...It doesn’t seem grammatically correct does it. “Dreams” plural, “this” singular...

"The shirts in my closet are made of cloth" seems to be grammatically correct but mixes singular and plural. Or "The chairs in my house are made of wood."

I always thought the lyric was "Sweet dreams are made of these" as well.

Then again, for years, I thought the lyric in the Toto song "Africa" went "There's nothing that a hundred men on Mars could ever do" so what do I know?

I’d call grandma when W of F was on so we could play together. I had cable but she was on antenna. She never figured out I saw the answer a few seconds before she did. Guess I should feel bad.
