#19 - Disappointments of My Lifetime

Top 5: Disappointments of My Lifetime
  1. The Matrix Reloaded - Worst Sequel to a Quality Film
  2. Sea-Monkeys -Blatant False Advertising
  3. The Spaghetti Incident? - Worst Follow-up
  4. The Segway - Worst World Revolutionizing Invention
  5. Rafael Araujo - Biggest Disappointment of a Human
The Matrix Reloaded was sooooo bad. I remember while leaving the theater, people were knocking over garbage cans in disgust. Todd Chapman gave the movie screen the finger. Everyone went home angry and disapointed. Fuck the Matrix Reloaded...

Sea-Mokeys may be fond memories for some, but not for me. Brine shrimp? I want my scary little pink sea people with crowns!!

The Spaghetti Incident? was Guns N' Roses follow up to Use Your Illusion I & II. Back in the day, we were all GNR fans. Don't Cry, November Rain, Civil War, Live and Let Die, Yesterdays, Knockin on Heaven's Door, Get in the Ring, Estranged, You Could Be Mine... Use Your Illusion was one of the most important albums of the 90s. You can now buy The Spaghetti Incident for 1 cent on Ebay:

The Segway was supposed to be the next invention to change our world. Dean Kamen said this invention would revolutionize our lives. I can remember sitting in rez and guessing what "it" would be. A matter transporter? Food replicators? What did we get? A bunch of dorks on scooters.

Rafael Araujo: A terrible waste of a human, he was also a pretty crappy basketball player.
