Overrated

Green day; eyeliner; britney spears; anna nicole smith; borat; myspace tom; world of warcraft; horses; denim clothing; napoleon dynamite; both jakcass films; Ray Liotta

All good examples of this word. It means something that is popularized but really isn't all that great. i.e. my chemical romance.
I used my rational judgement and superior intellect to sift through a few things and find good examples of the word overrated.

Your mother is overrated.

Overrated

Something (Whether it be a Movie, Band, Song, etc.) that gets more credit and fame than it necessary. I find it sad when someone uses this website to trashtalk a band (Master Shake and GnR). It's even sadder when he and his friend are the only people to give his definition thumbs up.
Nirvana is an overrated band.
Gangsta Rap is an overrated music genre.
Master Shake is an overrated human being.

Here are some examples of things that AREN'T overrated:
Slash is NOT overrated.
Guns N' Roses are NOT overrated.

overrated

adj: said of a person, work of art, or phenomenon that recieves undeserved credit or popularity.

Note: lately, the word has been abused in popular culture to label something popular that the speaker simply dislikes or has an objection to on principle. Among fans of hip-hop, said speaker is often deemed a hater. In extreme cases, he/she is labeled a punk bitch.

Also note, there is no such thing as "overrated" in indie culture. When the word is uttered in the presence of an indie kid, it is often followed by disembodied moans and howls and said person melting like a snowball in Hell.
Person 1: Ke$ha is overrated.
Person 2: Amen to that.

Person 1: Lana del Rey is so overrated.
Person 2: U jelly?

Person 1: Jay-Z is so overrated.
Hip-hop fan: You betta shut the fuck up, jealous punk bitch hater!

Person 1: Dude, Radiohead is so overrated.
Indie kid: AHHHHHOOOOOOOOHBLAAAAAAH! I'm MEEEEELLLLTIIIING!

OverCraft

OverCraft is a mental problem in which you start to hate MineCraft due to playing it WAAAY too much. You simply do not enjoy playing MineCraft or do not find any joy in it. Most people who currently have this symptom got it once Beta started, and since the player base has gone down considerably.

Overdramaticalizing

OverDraught Protection

A system used between friends which simply allows someone who brought his/her own beer to a party, but has innocently consumed more than said person's normal maximum limit, to dip into his/her friends stash in order to keep the party rolling.

As with any such plan, there are rules:
1) Do not exercise the overdraught option if you showed up disturbingly understocked.
2) Overdraughting begins with the worst offered beer, then graduates upward based on the stock remaining and tolerance of the original suppliers.
3) Do not make this mistake again with the same amount of beer or you will obtain Mooch status and overdraught protection will be revoked for 1 calendar year.
"Hey Jorte, I notice that you are digging through the fridge for your 8th Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA, yet I see you only brought a 6 pack of Natural Light. WTF? Your breaking rules 1 and 2 of the OverDraught Protection plan brother!! "
