I'll take that as a compliment!

I just finished watching Chicklet-teeth Underwood Ms. Redstate on the Billboard Music Awards singing some HEINOUS song with a horrible chorus and bridge consisting of like, four long American-Idol style notes. Hearing those unnecessary notes that in no way fit with the rest of the song reminded me of this 'lil blowout...American Idol Season 3's Diana Degarmo! What the cabinet loved about her was that no matter how horrible the criticism, she'd pipe back, "I'll take that as a compliment!". We extended the concept even further to her lackluster debut:

"Diana, your debut cd sucks and literally no one but your mother has bought it - and she got it in the 99-cent bin at Wal-Mart."

"Thanks - I'll take your complete lack of interest as a compliment!"

God bless 'er. Here's hoping that you never get jaded like us and you are able to maintain your relentless, crazed optimism.
