No. I don't have to be Oscar Wilde to know you're spouting desperate bullshit when you use that.

Now, I wouldn't say that to your sister, as she might get mad, but that's what I would say in real life.

What do you think would happen if BP had said "We'd like to see you do better"?

Well... it's fair enough, you probably can't do better. She likes what she likes, who are you to tell her any different? You have your opinion, she has hers.

That's an example of the Tu Quoque(sp?) fallacy, meaning "You too".
Essentially, just because you can't do better does not excuse them from being awful too.
So no, it's a very poor argument.
You are correct, sir! I'm surprised only one person has tried bringing in logical fallacies to this. I consider being able to identify logical fallacies [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallacy] very useful in a debate. Also: link to Tu Quoque [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tu_quoque]

I'll try to remember this in case anyone tries to use a Tu Quoque attack against me, thanks.

No, and that's why we can criticize athletes who are far better than us. The difference between them and us is I'm not paid tons of money to not be good enough.

The same applies to musicians, actors, directors, writers and game developers.

Your sister is stupid. If I were you, I'd be checking your gene pool for any turds that may be sloshing around.

1: likes Justin Bieber
2: can't argue for shit
3: can't take criticism

I'm sure she has an iPhone and watches MTV, as well, eh?
