How do five extremely annoying guys walk? In One Direction.

I don't get why so many girls love One Direction so much. They're just five guys. Here's the all important question; can they really sing? And here's the all important answer; no, they cannot. Their voices are, let's face it, nothing special. There are singers out there with much, much better voices than the five members of One Direction put together. But of course, the music industry in the 21st Century is all about image right? But even then these five guys are nothing special. They are five average guys who auditioned for the Xfactor. Come on, they didn't even win! They're not exceptionally good singers and they are not exceptionally good looking. Someone who is exceptionally good looking? This guy;

I'm not saying that One Direction aren't nice guys, I can't really say that because I don't know them personally, but what annoys me is that almost every single girl in this universe is in love with One Direction. It's ridiculous! Girls crying because they can't get tickets to see One Direction, girls crying because they might never get to meet One Direction, girls crying because they won't ever be able to date a guy from One Direction while I'm laughing because you all need to get a life and have a reality check because there are people out there with no food, water, clothes or a home. Ok, so nearly every girl in this universe is in love with or has heard of One Direction. BUT, how many of you have heard of these people?;
Earnest Walton
Thomas Edison
Joseph Swan
Guido d'Arezzo
Martin Luther (not to be confused with Martin Luther King)

This is just a small list of some people who did some very important things that has made the world what it is today. Have you heard of ALL of them and can you remember what they did? No? Yet you know all the birth dates, favourite foods, favourite colours and names and surnames of the five members of One Direction? Shameful.
