How would you overrate it on a scale of 9 to 10 ?

When I feel that something is considerered by people to be better than it actually is, I say it is overrated. I don't use it in any other circumstance. This is pretty straightforward.

this post is overrated  my problem with the word "overrated" is that one can't always determine what the sayer means, it could mean that they enjoy it but not as much as others, or it could be an indirect way of saying "you're bad for liking this". However, daily usage almost guarantees extra indie points

I can't get over your overreaction to the use of the word overrated. Get over it already ... That & the use of the word fanboy. Do fanmen exist ? fangals, fanwomen ? I've heard of fan dancers, fan dangos, & fan-atic (though I never found one upstairs there). Or dissonant ? WHy not datsonnant ? Avant-Garde ? Who's bringing up the rear ? Do you find Avant-Garde hard on your (r)ear ? You best not use the word best ! And why doesn't the whole world spell favourite with a "U" ? That's my favourite way to spell ! Did it go missing when it crossed the U.S. border ? And if you cross a U.S. border collie with a , with a, with a .... dang, I can't think of anything !!!!

There are lots of bands or albums that I like, but also find overrated. Usually it's an album that most reviewers label 'a masterpiece', but I think it's just 'pretty good'. It has nothing to do with hating anything, it just depends on the situation. I can see how you would think that though, because some of the reviews lean that way.

Ever find that the use of the term "overrated" in regards to a group or album usually is an attempt by the person to say that they "hate" said group or album, without actually saying so ?
