For me, if I ask for an unpopular opinion and you say something about pineapple on pizza I’m going to assume you have no personality.

    Clover lawns are pretty.

    Seems kinda unpopular based on just the sheer amount of pristine lawn grass there is. But is also so incredibly low stakes it’s boring

    The most boring, I dunno. My most boring unpopular opinion? Licorice is absolutely delicious.

    Also - music now is certainly as good as at any time in the past.

    “Marvel/DC movies BAD.”

    They’re products aimed at children with the intention of selling other related products. The fact that some biological adults love them excessively in certain communities/cultures says something about those groups, but doesn’t change the nature of the films themselves. What exactly did you expect?!

      Agree, and as an adult who enjoys comic book movies. I also like really good cinema. Liking good movies does not mean movies that aren’t winning Oscars are all bad. It means you’re just a gatekeeper.

      I can sit down and watch a movie like the Brutalist or the Whale absolutely lose my shit at them.

      But sometimes I don’t feel like being emotionally destroyed and just want good guys punching bad guys with predictable plot.

      Humans are complex and sometimes you may like one and other times the other, there is no “you can’t like X movie”. Only gatekeepers think that way.

        I agree to a great degree. And expectations should be adjusted accordingly. I remember having a great time watching Thor: Ragnarok, not because it was beautiful art that made me reflect and cry and whatnot but because it was fun! And not extremely dumb, lol, and that’s all we can ask from these movies. Rarely do people only enjoy things with a lot of depth and complexity, and even if you’re like that about movies, are you the same about music? Food? You’ve never enjoyed a greasy burger? So yeah there’s no need to hate on them, and no need to expect more from them either (but if it happens it’s always a nice surprise!). ✌️

      Hi,

      I’m only commenting to show something… Seconds ago I read a comment about Ukraine and pornography with which I completely disagreed. I left the thread, came here, read a comment I completely agree with.

      Both are made by the same commenter.

      See, we can agree on some things and disagree on others. There’s more than two personalities available.

      Maybe it’s just me, but I also find it weird to see adults with t-shirts or stickers on their cars of what are essentially kid’s shows and comics.

    Gravity Falls was kinda okay. I feel like it had more potential with how fun the characters were but then again it’s a Disney cartoon so there’s limitations

    I’m so sick of pretend pearl clutching over this non-issue. If you don’t like it, don’t eat it. If you do, that’s fine too.

    And for the record, my stance on pineapple on pizza is… drumroll

    Tap for spoiler

      Charred fresh pineapple is completely different than pale bland lumps from a can too. Hawaiian style pizza can be good but blandness is death.

        The one thing I tried on pizza that was unexpectedly gross to me was broccoli. I actually really enjoy broccoli but on a pizza it made the whole thing taste nasty.

        Breakfast pizza is amazing. Replace the tomato sauce with sausage gravy, sprinkle on the scrambled eggs, diced ham, and any other toppings of your choice, add the shredded cheese, and bake at 400F for 10-15 minutes (depending on your oven).

    That homelessness is a choice and the people sleeping on the ground and being nibbled on by rats are somehow gaming the system.

      I got hit with this by an elderly person one day. They went on about how there’s so much food out there that they could just forage for, but they choose to beg for it. I was working, so all I could do was smile and nod, but that smile was just frozen in place like a grimace.

      During this whole rant my boss and I kept glancing at each other like they were insane. I can’t remember the exact details, I cleansed my brain of that garbage, but there were a few times my boss’ eyes flashed and I thought he was going to flip out.

      They left like they were the avatar of mercy and understanding. I may have forgotten what they said exactly, but I’ll never forget how they looked, because that went right down in my mind under “people I’ll never become”. I mean… you have to actively try to become that ignorant, right?

      …Right?

        Remember that their generation were the same ones who beat black protestors and spit on drafted Vietnam vets. They’re also going to die off soon and the world will be better without them

      Even if people did choose to do so, it should be a huge red flag to happen then. If people would rather sleep on the street than participate in society, maybe shit is fucked up.

      Think that one, the opinion itself, varies in boring/interesting depending on where you live. Likewise varies in truthfulness.

    Responding to any kind of misfortune with “They deserved it.”

    eg. People struggling to pay their rent should have budgeted better. People whose uber eats wasn’t delivered shouldn’t have used uber eats. People with medical debt should’ve had health insurance. etc. etc.

        Popular is not the same thing as interesting. It’s boring in an ancient and odious way, but there is something interesting about how every time people bring it up they think they’re giving a hot take.

          I wasn’t talking about people bringing it up as a psychological theory, I was talking about people holding it as an actual belief.

          There are tons and tons of people who subscribe to it. It’s a pretty good hint as to why people support billionaires and villainize the poor.

      People killed by political violence

      Edit: I’m adding to the e.g’s because political violence is where I most commonly observe “they deserved it” remarks

      And so should the deadlier gun but at some point you risk becoming a danger. Ofc if you have no morals you won’t care but if you do, then you’ll think about it at least twice.

    I dunno. But my personal most boring unpopular opinion is that people care too much about “proper grammar” and shit, especially online. Originally they were all made to be guidelines, not rules; even capital letters were optional. Get creative with it. Fuck the rules… use ellipses, start with prepositions, have tiny or longer sentences, make it more interesting to read. Otherwise everything reads like it was written by ChatGPT
