The Stealth Hippopotamus: Yeah but what do I need to do to get into Taylor Swift.

Earplugs and a blindfold?

I can't possibly find what people see in her.

FriarReb98: The Stealth Hippopotamus: Yeah but what do I need to do to get into Taylor Swift.

So you're saying you want a song about yourself sung by every 11-15 year old girl in suburbia and played in Kohl's, JC Penney AND Walmart?

I do! I want to see the soccer moms in Kohl's go nuts when they hear the verse about my huge cock.

Chloroform and a rag?

"How to get into a Taylor Swift"

Apparently, Alabama needs to beat LSU this weekend...



/That picture will never get old
//unless I see her bare pussy and tits

ArkAngel: The guy seems to be making a big deal about the rider, but I don't see anything on it as much of a big deal. It seems to be basic food and drinks, nothing too fancy.

I believe that's the point.

Somewhere in Tennessee a Cracker Barrel is missing its hostess.



Taylor Swift in 20 years....

ROLL TIDE ROLL

Too bad they don't play this weekend.

I guess we have to hope that pic was "taken" the first week in November 2009.

That, and not the most obvious shoop job in history.

Taylor Shift had the original Tea Party.

/A bunch of crazy screaming delusional people were invited to her Tea party, which was the criteria of the foundation of the current Koch bros Tea Party.

That is a kickass blog, friends. Check out some of the other articles on there.

/no, i DON'T write for it.

It reads less like the outrageous demands of a huge music superstar and more like 'could you guys do my grocery shopping, please?' The most demanding thing there is that if there happens to be a Starbucks, have a couple cups and a pumpkin loaf to her bus by 11 AM.)

well, all right. She gets a pass from me for everything from now on.

kwame: Scottybobotty: /no talent ass clown...

Well, let's see. She can sing better than you, write better songs than you, play more instruments than you, make more money than you. And I'm betting more people like her than you.

Must have just a touch of it.

None of the above would be true except the last two. She really is farking horrible at what she does. Fortunately for her, there's a huge number of people out there with no musical taste or discernment whatsoever, who can readily be conned by the advertising departments of the major labels.

Good to know that you're here to bring musical soap to the Great Unwashed.

I do. Yay, I finally managed to score a green for my own blog!

Do not ask how many attempts it took.

forgotmydamnusername: She really is farking horrible at what she does

Actually, she's very successful at what she does.

Quality is a matter of opinion. Music, as defined, really doesn't have much of a criteria. Enough people find her pleasant enough to warrant calling it "good" music. Really that's all it boils down to. Sure, you can hold her to some fabricated technical scale, but at the end of the day, what does that technical scale really mean if it flies in the face of millions of fan's support?

Humor us. What musician/singers are not farking horrible at what they do?
Difficulty: Your qualifications?

That's the thing. She connects with her fans.

Note in the lyrics to her songs, especially on Speak Now, that she doesn't like to go right out and name anyone that she's talking about. (Except John Mayer, but there she hid it in 'Dear John', which can mean something else entirely.) She generalizes the subject matter, changing it from something totally about her into something that her fanbase is much more likely to find some sort of personal relation. And she doesn't really like to name names either; she'll leave a bunch of clues but leave you to be the one to yell out the answer. Otherwise, you ask her, any given song is just about "a boy".

"This song is about Kanye West" = song fans can't relate to
"This song is about a boy" = song fans can relate to

And no, she doesn't have the strongest voice in the world. What she is good at is making that voice do exactly what she needs it to do at any given moment. It's like drifting an Oldsmobile. (Let's not go crazy and say 'ice cream truck' or something; the voice isn't THAT bad.)

forgotmydamnusername: forgotmydamnusername: She really is farking horrible at what she does.

The mere fact that she sells out entire stadiums and concert venues (sometimes within hours) shows that she is doing something right in her job as an entertainer. Of her singing: of course it's not the best singing out there. There are plenty people in the world who have more talent than her who are not getting the recognition they deserve (JoJo anyone?). The unique thing about Taylor Swift is that she is the antithesis to everything else out there. You have the crazy Lady Gaga, the rebellious Katy Perry, the slutty Disney cast-offs (Miley Cyrus, etc..) and finally you have Taylor Swift, the sweet innocent girl next door that us grown women once were before the real world got to us and killed off our dreams of finding Prince Charming and living happily ever after. Her songs are from simpler, dreamy times that remind us of how it was to be a little girl with fantastic dreams and innocent thoughts. I think that is her major appeal- that she can touch and inspire people with her innocence and relatability just like Lady Gaga can get people's attention by her racy lyrics and bizarre wardrobe. In fact when she was first starting out they were trying to pass her off as the next Britney Spears complete with skimpy outfits. Thank goodness they decided to head down the good girl route, or else I'd have to settle for Miley Cyrus as a role model for my daughters.

Fortunately for her, there's a huge number of people out there with no musical taste or discernment whatsoever, who can readily be conned by the advertising departments of the major labels.

Not true. They market her exactly the way she is. Remember that mother who was pissed when she took her daughters to a Taylor Swift concert hoping for a feminist Girl-Power event only to be greeted by a sweet country bumpkin in a pretty dress cooing about the boys who broke her heart? Most, if not all of Taylor's fans know who she is and what her music is about and the few who get conned out of their cash are the ones who aren't paying attention to the way Taylor is marketed.

if the after party involves my penus and her mowf... This would be relevant to my interests.

however. this article was not the answer.

I am conflicted as to whether I want to fark her or take her to my leader.

Don't limit yourself. It's possible to do both.

Too much talking, not enough pictures

YOU WILL NEED: tons of glowsticks; human body wrapped in duct tape; cow

Heck, I got most of those things in my truck right now and I can get a cow.

She could do with a hairstyle change. That icky sprayed into place looking wave thing over her left eye can be repulsive. It doesn't even go completely away when she's dressed up(ie your pic).

And a sammige or three. As that picture show's, her upper arms look deathly skinny.

I'd like it better freshly off of her, probably in a pile on my bedroom floor.

"It's fine to talk about love publicly. But I think when you talk about virginity and sex publicly, people just automatically picture you naked. And as much as I can prevent people picturing me naked, I'm going to." -Taylor, back in 2009

So, yeah, good luck with that, omega.

I picture her naked quite often, actually.

Listen, I'm not much of a fan, but if you can't recognize that she's a terrific songwriter, then there's something wrong with YOU. Don't get your panties in a bunch because she writes things that teenaged girls experience. SHE IS A TEENAGED GIRL. It doesn't change the fact that the songs are great, it just means that you can't relate.

Let's put it this way. While researching TFA, I found there were some guys at Auburn that made this website called "A Hug From Taylor Swift". The mission: exactly that. Get a hug from Taylor.

Taylor found the site.

Then this happened.

There are pics of her with her hair straightened and I think she looks 100 times better than the wavey stuff
