      - I know Lily Allen is British... but Katy Perry seemed to have a similar M.O, only filthier. -- nm - secretslacker Jan 7, 19:17 7
        
        That's where the fun would come in. - the wrong element, bad guy Jan 7, 19:22
        
        his point is that Lily has mean things to say about everyone. -- nm - loosilu Jan 7, 19:20 5
        
        Not everyone (that I know of), but definitely Katy Perry. - the wrong element, bad guy Jan 7, 19:24 2
        
        she used to dump on Winehouse and Elton John. -- nm - loosilu Jan 7, 19:26 1
        
        I knew she made some drunken comments about Elton John. - the wrong element, bad guy Jan 7, 19:33
        
        Particularly Katy Perry though. She apparently *dun, dun, DUN* joined a couple "I hate Katy Perry" FB groups. Way to lash out there, Lily. nm - ralph wiggum Jan 7, 19:23 1
        
        I actually didn't know about that, but she's had that reputation for ages. in this case - loosilu Jan 7, 19:24

  - I thought she was from a certain island in Greece. -- nm - JaxSean Jan 7, 18:59
  - She has such a weird, foreign name. -- nm - mara Jan 7, 18:50 9
    - and speaks with such a strange unintelligible accent. -- nm - Reagen Jan 7, 18:52 8
      - and sings about themes the average american would find uninteresting. nm - Dignan Jan 7, 18:57 7
        
        singing about kissing a girl is interesting to most of the male poulation and even some of the female population. -- nm - Stacy Jan 7, 19:09 6
        
        I respectfully disagree, just for the sake of hilarity. nm - Dignan Jan 7, 19:12 5
        
        At least me can all agree about the name and accent. - the wrong element, bad guy Jan 7, 19:18
        
        It's funny that you're disagreeing respectfully.. you do know where you are, right? -- nm - secretslacker Jan 7, 19:18 1
        
        You have such a thinly veiled hostility for this community. I can't help but wonder why you keep coming back for more. and more. and more. nm - Dignan Jan 7, 19:23

        practically all the sushi places in SF have Korean chefs and are owned by Koareans, its not even authentic -- nm - Stacy Jan 7, 18:58 5
        
        just trust me, ok? the sushi in sf is way better than it is here. there is no comparison...nm - x Jan 7, 19:02 1
        
        fine I will have have to accept that, I really dont have much comparison since I have only had sushi in California and Japan. -- nm - Stacy Jan 7, 19:04
        
        Is the fish Korean? -- nm - Redmond Jan 7, 18:59 2

        Seven Moons! (6900 Post Rd, NK) -- nm - kelly Jan 7, 19:09
        
        The longer kelly has been friends with me, the greater the odds she's actually right about something. - TFox Jan 7, 19:09
        
        Interesting, and noted when I can go out again. Our favorite place lately has been Waterman Grille. - TFox Jan 7, 19:02 2
        
        yeah, i've heard good things about that place too. actually i found the chowhound thread where i read that haruki stuff.... - x Jan 7, 19:05 1
