Post your unpopular opinions

[Moved to Elsewhere 11,331]

Interesting.

Do you think religion as a whole is evil?

Or just religious extremism?

No, in the post I was just stating examples of common opinion I see on this thread. I don't actually have those opinions.

I dislike overglorification of features of consoles. In fact, it's one of the main reasons why I think the 7th and 8ths gens are the worst gaming gens so far. I mean, it's nice to have features, but when game companies try to make it the #1 priority, it's kind of stupid. Which is also one of the reasons why I'm not a big fan of the Xbox One at all. Basically, I want a game console, not a DVR or Blu-Ray player.

 

What if I like FPS games and side-scrolling platformers? even though the latter is actually my favorite gaming genre

I like both genres pretty well. (On Steam, I just bought five side-scrolling platformers.)

The point I was trying to make was that when someone says the 90s were better because they werent flooded with FPS games even though, if you think about it, a big majority of 90s/80s games are side-scrolling platformers.

Either that, or a fighting game that tries to compete with Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat.

 

Also, I enjoy the story of FNAF more than the game itself.

Well ok.

Good cause those are some of the opinions on this thread that get really annoying.

If you're an anarchist or a communist, you're an incredibly naive person.

[iDeltaVelocity 110]

Most activists, especially social media activists, are just lazy and ignorant nowadays. I hate the ones that act like they care about a cause they claim to support, but in reality, they're just doing it to look like they care when they have next to no idea what they're going on about. 

 

To me, Democrats are no different than Republicans. 

 

Jar Jar Binks is awesome (rare to see a Jar Jar fan, isn't it?)

In the internet side of 2014, gamergate was the worst thing to happen this year

 

Anita Sarkeesian's instant thoughts on Bayonetta 2 being nothing but male fan service and female discrimination was the idiotic idea of 2014

 

I don't trust craigslist for buying or selling, as my family and the news has shown me why it's very risky and dangerous to do so

 

Despite my great appreciation and thoughts on my favorite characters like rarity or sayaka miki, I don't classify them as my waifus, I become a big fan of how adorable and great they are at best

Patriotism does not define person. It does not mean someone is good or intelligent. It means someone likes country he lives in and nothing else. Judging people over patriotism is beyond stupid. 

 

I think that by torturing muslims we are no better than IS. By taking their solutions we just become a copy of them.

 

I think that capital punishment is wrong unless it's used against people who committed genocide or numerous murders. 

 

Pedophilia is not a sexual intercourse with a minor. It is desire to have one. And not everyone with such desire does fullfil it. It is a sickness that can be cured. People who suffer from it should get support UNLESS they already attempted to molest kid. 

 

Many politicians and institutions don't understand, what tolerance or racism are. Tolerance means that if muslim for example murders someone he gets equal punishment to others. Not lighter one, because "it's a muslim". 

 

There's a huge difference between feminists and feminazis. Difference that so few people understand. 

 

Catholicism is not part of polish culture, Poland was formerly pagan country that accepted the religion, because otherwise it'd be conquered by a lot tougher neighbours. So we became catholic only due to politial reasons. (this is pretty unpopular opinion in Poland, because learning history is too mainstream). 

 

Attempts to fight human nature with religion (for example about intercourse) are ridiculous and pointless and only cause some people to suffer. 

 

No amount of money will ever give as much happiness as spending even one hour with person You love.

I've seen people on here openly post about how they're anarchists or communists, but the second that I say that I'm a nationalist people lose their shit. What is so wrong about wanting to preserve western culture and tradition? How is it hateful? Frickin' liberals.

MLP is an okay show, and I can see why you guys have a fandom for it. But there's much better shows out there.

I kinda hate seeing something I like being crossed with MLP. I'm all for free expression here but I don't like ponies. Like if I look up "ebola-chan" on Google images pony versions of her pop out.

 

"Otaku" is an insult.

[baba_booey 4,302]

I'm not much of a Sunset Shimmer fan, in neither the first of second EQGirls movie.

 

In the first EQGirls movie, all she was was a cliche high school villian who wanted power.

In Rainbow Rocks, all she was was the generic character that feels like she's useless until a time comes.

 

Many people say she was improved in Rainbow Rocks, but in my opinion, it wasn't by much at all.

[Dawning Demon 950]

I personally don't like same sex shipping's like Lyra and Bon Bon for example. I'm not saying that I don't like LGBT couples in real life but I think they should be left out of a kids show like MLP, it really bugs me when I see people nearly forcing the creators to include them. Even if it's the 21st century and same sex couples are now socially excepted (like they should) I don't think young girls would want to see that stuff in their favourite TV show.

Id like to apologies for my earlier post on this thread, my opinion about that stuff has changed a lot since then so don't worry guys. I'm no longer bothered about same-sex couples in kids shows. (I'm Bisexual myself) Things have changed why not let them be included.

I'm a liberal, and I'm a nationalist. You shouldn't be generalizing like that.

Just because I support a regulated economy, a strong social safety net, and equal oppurtunity for everyone, doesn't mean I'm not proud of my country, does it?

[Ziltoid the Omniscient 286]

I am a fan of the shows Kevin Spencer, and Trailer Park Boys. But i'm not canadian.

 

I despise reality tv shows, even the talent-themed ones.

 

TLC is the worst channel on TV.

 

I prefer MTV from the 80s and 90s.

 

Nickelodeon sucks. Cartoon Network sucks.

 

(Hed) P.E is my favorite band.

 

I enjoy classical music. Holst, Stravinsky, Mozart, Gershwin, etc.

 

I don't read books.

 

I like some anime, and have now started to watch it subbed as opposed to dubbed like I used to.

 

Mushrooms are disgusting. So are bell peppers. Also, mustard is gross too.

 

Katy Perry is my guilty pleasure pop singer.

 

Eminem was cool pre-8mile.

 

I still find the Simpsons funny.

 

I love Final Fantasy, and Guitar Hero.

 

I hate shooters, but only cause i'm terrible at them.

 

I am a sony person. Having had ps1,2,3 and hopefully eventually 4.

 

I dont like the kinds of people who throw around the terms kek or pleb or 

>do

>this

>shit

 

I'm a Rainbow Dash fan

 

My favorite episodes of FiM tend to be the ones CMC based.

 

I liked the first EqG more than Rainbow Rocks.

 

I've never seen an episode of LPS.

 

I enjoy Stephen Wright jokes. 

 

I can't think of what else to put down right now.

[Not_active 732]

I believe both socialism and capitalism have good sides to it. I think people should be able to make lots of money, but at the same time, I think we should prevent monopolies from forming.

Emulators are kind of a bad way to play games. I mean, I'll play them under certain circumstances, but many of them (especially ones for 6th gen+ consoles) suffer from huge famerate drops unless you have a top-of-the-line PC. 

 

I've seen people gush over Dolphin and PCSX2 emulators being able to play in 1080p HD and all that, but I can barely run them in STANDARD definition/fast mode, and my PC can run many Steam games smoothly.

 

Also, I can tell the "Taco Tuesday" joke is going to be run into the ground so much it's going to become unfunny after a while. Same thing happened to "Muffins" and "Peanut Butter Crackers," not to mention "Gak." Speaking of which, why are there so many "brony memes" about food anyway?

I cannot be able to play any emulators above the PS2 on my machine. Funny considering I can play Left 4 Dead on some very high settings. Likely because of the lack of optimization for AMD processors, which is what I depend on.

I mean, THE WII'S PROCESSOR IS AMD MANUFACTURED AND THE EMULATOR IS FOR INTEL. HOW!?!?

I really only use emulators to play games for consoles I don't have like the Genesis or the SNES. If I own the console, chances are I'll just get the game on the console. I will say, it's fun to get a Pokemon rom and due some funny cheat codes on it but that's about it.

Gun control laws do not work. All they do is punish law abiding citizens for the actions of criminals. A murderer isn't going to get rid of his gun because it's against the law. A robber isn't going to turn away from a gas station because he's not allowed to bring his gun inside the store.

 

I support the militarization of the police to a point. Why? Because, whether you know it or not, the streets are a battlefield. You wanna know why you can walk down the streets of your suburb or busy entertainment district? Because there first responders crawling around those areas keeping criminals away and contained. When the police have to venture into those areas to try and stamp them out, they're going to need a little more than a 40 cal. I'm not saying they need flamethrowers and mini guns, but when you've been shot at just because you're trying to save the life of a rival gang member, maybe you'd understand why an mrap isn't going too overboard.

 

Lunestia is the best ship. Why should they bury a spouse every 50 years or so when they could be with who they love more than anyone else and can be with them for all eternity? If there are any of those pesky laws forbidding them from being together, a few strokes of their quills will clear that right up. Besides, hot lesbians are best lesbians amirite?

 

I don't care about the plight of poor people. I grew up poor, but my family busted our asses and worked hard to make a better life for ourselves. When I see people unwilling to work so they can get free money from the government, it's a slap in my face.

 

Equestria Girls and all related movies, merch, and memes are god awful. The show broke the stereotype of girls shows by not being about relationship drama, being pretty and popular, or trying to find a boyfriend. What do they do in EG? Make a movie series set in a high school where they have petty arguments, try to be the most popular in school, and shoehorn Flash Sentry in for good measure. What the actual fuck?

I honestly believe thieves and robbers are the biggest cowards of society, instead of taking action like a true man, they resort to steal with guns, weaponry, and words

 

School shootings are always important, just because it happened frequently doesn't make it "another casual incident"

 

Movies like "The Interview" shows the world just how cruel and culturally insensitive Americans can be if that's for entertainment and without safe consent to those they are ridiculing

- I actually liked The Amazing Spider-Man 2. I don't get why so many people hate it.

- I also liked Spider-Man 3.

- The Amazing Spider-Man 2's version of Electro and Spider-Man 3's version of Sandman are both better than their comic book counterparts.

- I'm actually sad over the thought Michael Bay may not direct Trasnformers 5.

- Michael Bay is one of the best directors out there, if you ask me.
