Yes. Not getting laid is much less overrated, not at all probably.

Being overrated is overrated.

The word 'overrated' is overrated. I prefer to just say something sucks.

Those aren't synonyms though.

Works for me though, since I only ever say something is overrated if I don't like it at all
So I should just cut the crap and say it straight.

Not really. Something can suck and nobody likes it, but being overrated means a lot of people (too many, probably) do like it, but you don't. So you could say for instance, Metallica is overrated but Brian Jones and His One Other Band Member Band suck. Nobody is likely to know who Jones is, and so he can't be overrated.
