Post your unpopular opinions

[Ruddboy Olaf 10,628]

If you sag your pants, you look like an idiot, pull your pants up! Do you know what that means? It came from prisons as a signal that your behind was available, literally! Its not cool, so don't embarrass yourself or your momma, and pull your pants up.

 

If you think you're gangster, you're not! (unless you're like old school gangster (think Capone, Bugsy Siegel types) Then you just might be, or at least have my respect)

These two! I could not agree more!

Gaming this time:

• I belive Xbox Live was good. Was I mean in 2005-09 becuase the avatars I had point to them. You could use them in Netlfix and use them in 1 vs 100 the game .
• Watch Netflix with your friends (a.k.a Netflix party mode) over the net(Xbox Live) was one of the single best ideas; removing it was one of Microsoft's greatest miskates with the Xbox 360
• 1 vs 100 was one of the best F2P games of all time 
• Indies>Tripe AAA Games
• The Far Cry games  are boring games to me

The WiiU looks like the best of the current gen consoles and the one I'll get first(tons of exclusives and the graphical power the Wii lacked)

 

Indie Games don't suck and I've played quite a few freeware titles that were really good.

 

Newgrounds isn't that bad if you know where to find the good stuff(Toss the Turtle is one of my favorite games on there)

 

The XboxOne is a trainwreck(it's being beat out by upper-entry level GPUs that came out six months after it launched and pretty lite budget PC builds can outdo it already)

I'm not really a fan of Gravity Falls. Honestly, I usually just get bored about halfway through each episode.

 

Nintendo making a new console and discontinuing the Wii U would be a terrible idea. Remember what happened when Sega did this?

 

DeviantART can be absolutely horrifying.

Opinions are cheap. Especially on the internet. Why? Because everyone is full of it. Not much left to do but pander if you want to your voice to sell. Enter the demagogue.

I hate it when anyone uses "master race" to show people what they like. It makes them look more stuck up and annoying, to be honest.

Agreed on this - it's nice for pretty pictures, but I have no idea how anyone has proper conversations/friendships on there, tbh. also, I hate the new layout because it insists on showing me ALL the weird cartoon porn my friends have favourited (not judging anyone, I don't care what you're into, I'd just rather not have to see it unless I choose to...)

 

I'd also add Tumblr to this...I used to be obsessed with it, but over time I've grown to really hate the fandom culture there. I consider myself a feminist and care about social justice issues IRL, of course, but so much of what I see on there is basically just an excuse to bully people for liking ~problematic~ shows/characters/whatever. I feel like some people have totally forgotten there's a difference between reality and fiction, so obviously if you like a bad fictional character you must 100% approve of their actions IRL -_-

and then of course there's the whole anti-brony thing - I fully admit that this may just be me being oversensitive, but I hate how it seems the only "acceptable" way to be an MLP fan on Tumblr is to constantly talk about how you're not a brony because bronies are The Worst (and anyone who does call themselves a brony is a terrible person and "stealing" MLP from little girls), etc. I know that the pony fandom is far from perfect and there are problems and unpleasant individuals within the community, but every fandom has those people. Some days it feels like it's hard to find a place where I can just enjoy the show (that I love in part because of its strong feminist messages) without either Tumblr "social justice"/anti-brony sentiment (and I do mean in the "ALL BRONIES ARE SCUM" rather than just "don't like/care about FiM or the fandom" sense) or guys people saying feminism is stupid because men and women are obviously totally equal now. It's hard out here for a bitch feminist pony fan who hates Tumblr, you guys

 

(that got unexpectedly personal, so another, unrelated point...)

 

While I don't think it will ever actually happen (sadly), the inclusion of a same-sex couple in MLP (or any kids' show) would in no way be "sexualising" the show any more than the existing straight couples. It's kinda ridiculous that people can claim not to be homophobic and yet be convinced that seeing any kind of same-sex romance would be incredibly damaging and traumatising for children, rather than helping to teach them that *gasp* non-straight people exist and are no different to anyone else.

 

[Luna the Great of all the Russias 2,976]

Not sure if I mentioned this before but I actually find stereotypical depictions much more humourous than offensive. This includes stereotypes of my ethnicity. Though I'm not sure if this is considered unpopular or is more guilty pleasure for many people.

 

I don't understand the concept of gay pride (or if there's a term for LGBTs in general). If it's about countering the hatred towards the group then I understand, but I don't understand why anyone would be proud of their sexuality by itself. I think there has been numerous occasions where people said they were proud to be gay (Tim Cook as one example) to which I would respond "why would people cares?" Don't be confused; have nothing against LGBT groups, more that I have no strong feelings either way and am not understanding the concept.

I gave up on tumblr. I just couldn't get back into it. I ran into a ton of issues with people I no longer wish to associate with.

I also hated the bull they'd throw at straights, acting like they're the scum of the earth and the only people that matter are gays, lesbian, asexuals, aromantics, everyone but bis and straights. Bis which is my sexuality not like that matters were rarely included in pride posts and it frustrated me. Yes it would be nice if asexuals, aromantics, pansexuals and all of them like that were recognized but for s---s sake they needed to stop being a---es towards heteroes. They're not all horrible people. Same goes for cisgenders being treated like s---t. It was disgusting. Along with men being even lower scum then straights especially hetero cis gendered white males. I don't see why it automatically makes them s----y people. They could do something really inspiring but if they are every one of those things it still won't matter. They're still scum on those peoples eyes. Ugh.

To the guy who said that bullying makes you stronger:

 

You know what bullying got me? Crippling social anxiety that makes it near impossible to interact with other people without being afraid of them. It made it a struggle to get emotionally close to anyone. That shit didn't make me stronger.

 

 

 

Anyway:

 

-I don't really care what happens after we die. That's not to say that I'm not a little curious, but I figure I'll find out eventually.

-Superman is really boring

-it's hard to take anything that happens in comic books seriously, because nobody ever stays dead. Who cares if Captain America gets sniped, he'll be back next month.

[Moved to Elsewhere 11,331]

Wait, someone said bullying makes you stronger? 

 

Now what about all the bully victims who got so emotionally hurt, they committed suicide over it? Huh, is bullying making them stronger there? And what about all the bullying victims who resorted to irrational violence due to bullying? That's not mentally stronger.

Personally there's nothing wrong with stereotypes as long as their done without malintent and are just being poked at for good fun. Being Mexican, I love the stereotype that Mexicans love Telenovelas(Hispanic Soap Operas) especially considering I grew up in a household where my mom or sister would always have that on, or her friends would always have one on the TV in their houses.

[baba_booey 4,302]

Apple Family Reunion isn't underrated. I've only seen about 3 other people dislike it and it feels that most other people think it's Applejack's best episode (which I highly disagree with.) My problems with that episode was that it felt like Baby Cakes, and there wasn't really much of a plot in it, at least in my views.

[Fishy Stick 7,571]

Well one is that Gary's Mod is really boring, there's no objective. I guess that's just my game preference though.

[Fricklefrackle 184]

Hipsters.

All those galaxy things with either The Simpsons or other stuff in it.

>>even though i have a galaxy background, it doesn't have anything in it its bjoetiefoel<<

I like troll songs.

I like The Sims 4.

I didn't give a crap if the toddlers or pools were gone.

I still don't get the Harlem Shake, like, defuq do you do, random things, wow, good for yew.

I actually hate horses in real life, everybody likes them in my class.

I'm scared of clowns.

I hate Taylor Swift, not her songs.

I hate dark chocolate.

The Olympics are stupid.

I hate my mother language.

I want to be the opposite gender sometimes.

 

that's not even everything, this is just what i came up with.

You know why Sega died?

 

Scrapping consoles.

I Wish Steam Made CS games free

TF2 is getting more boring to play.

The best episode for me in MLP is Season 1 episode 1

Obama is one of the most abhorrent presidents.

EVER.

[Hidey 2,836]

Mine would be that I don't care what anyone does as long as everyone involved is consenting and what they're doing doesn't cause real harm. I don't have any "moral" to deny anyone anything.

[baba_booey 4,302]

Considering I've seen about a thousand comments (on this and other websites) saying otherwise,

 

..Barack Obama isn't that bad of a president..

 

And I'm not even super political.

I've got more:

- Asexuality (lack of sexual attraction) should be considered a sexual orientation and not a mental illness. I don't even label myself sexually.

- Depopulation/population control is wrong and it's sad that some people can think of such thing

- The corporate media is useless

-I only like the winter Olympics, summer ones are a bit dull

-Soccer is more exciting than Football (Though I don't really watch any sports)

-While the LoTR movies are some of my favorites, I hate the books so much that I couldn't even get passed the first one.

-The Hobbit movies are bad.

-Cloud Atlas (if anyone even saw it) wasn't confusing at all

-Drive got fucking robbed in the Oscars. It at LEAST deserved a nomination.
