I don't really like Star Wars and I get irritated when people make a big deal about it. Same with Harry Potter.

I think I've seen one Star Wars movie and I wasn't massively impressed. It's not bad or anything I don't think but just doesn't interest me.
Harry Potter I also agree with, just really overrated. After the first movie/book I think it went downhill a bit. I do prefer reading them to watching them though
 
Most moe blob slice of life and ecchi anime are repetitive plots with little to no real characters. I don't understand how that can be entertaining to watch.

yeah i find most slice of life/school/ecchi anime terribly boring it's pretty much the same with "different" characters...

I really dislike Honey and tea, especially combined.

i can't drink tea so yeah lol. i don't mind hot water with honey though if i'm sick.

also yeah i agree with whatever cake person above. i hate sweet and fruity cakes like those staple-wares you always get at people's birthday party ew
 
While I'm mentioning food bacon is also overrated.

Also I'm sure this itself isn't really "unpopular" but bacon culture (those people who act like they're obsessed with it and made bacon become printed on everything) is really annoying to me, same with moustache culture.

When people say "Ha, you play Animal Crossing? Girl!" (i'm a boy) it really annoys me. People need to mind their own business, especially if they play Pokemon GO. By the way, my unpopular opinions:
1) Don't like Pokemon GO
2) Don't watch TV
3) Hate anything pepperoni/salami related: pepperoni pizza is the most controversial product in my experiences
4) Love the Pokemon TCG (not unpopular on a gaming forum, but in a classroom with 30 students who only like clothes and sports I'm a singular entity lol)
 
Yeah Pok?mon GO sucks. Also it makes everyone claim they "love" Pok?mon without like knowing a single standalone game except that. Like if you would show them like a GBA or DS copy they would be like "uuuhh kids ****" just because it's on a console rather than smartphone.

Unfortunately (and hilarious considering what this forum revolves around) people are less sympathetic when they find out I watch kids cartoons. I remember when I bought the game the employee commented "you're buying THAT game?!" It does look like it's marketed for 10 year olds. Almost as if it's a kids game or something. :p Don't worry, it's okay to like kids games but not kids cartoons.


On topic: I think Tumblr is largely a cesspool and its ideals, vocabulary, and angry brand of militant feminism leaks onto TBT far too often. Not actually a very unpopular opinion on any site other than Tumblr itself but here on TBT it probably would be. :p

1. I do not particularly enjoy watching TV. I am only watching one series ATM, The Whispers.
2. I don't really like short shorts, and I'm a teen girl.
3. I don't see the need to be on my phone 24/7 like a lot of teens, I only go on it if I need to.
4. I don't have social medias, I feel like they are just a place to grandstand yourself and talk behind other's backs.
5. I believe it is a waste of time to have a boyfriend in high school, you'll just break up and who knows if he's going to college?

I mean... your list is very reasonable.
  1. TV was better when there were five channels at most (before the digital switchover).
  2. There's too much pressure to dress in a particular way these days. Seriously, there's no need to attract unwanted attention to yourself.
  3. Yep. No need.
  4. Facebook is the only social media I really use and it's a worthless place. Just Instagram advertisements, really.
  5. Best to wait 'til you're out of education.
I'm not going to share my unpopular opinions since that rarely ends well... ;)
 
Vanilla ice cream is better than chocolate ice cream.

People who say "omg triggered" are ignorant to what actually having a traumatic experience is like.

(I'm not sure if this is an unpopular opinion or not)

Oh yeah, people are acting way too much tumblr-culture here nowadays and yeah that site is 80% trash.

No, it's not. But it is a echo chamber gathering place for people with certain ideas. ;)

Not really? Plus iirc the two of you have said you were on tumblr for like a week and then quit so I don't see how you can make a proper judgement.

Yes there is a """SJW""" side of tumblr and there's also an equally large anti-sjw side and MRA/anti-feminism side and a TERF side and a fascist side annnnd

Honestly the biggest side of tumblr is the "fandom" side that doesn't care or post about anything political and just focusses on (re)blogging games and shows and stuff.

Plus I think it's worth mentioning that most people on both TBT and tumblr are actually people with your mindset, so it's kinda funny when you and so many others complain about "TBT becoming too tumblr" or whatever.

You're welcome to disagree all you'd like. The only time I've mentioned my use of Tumblr is commenting on how I don't like the design, and said that was just personal taste. Also never said Tumblr is complete ****, just I dislike it for various reasons. Don't hate it, dislike it. I poke fun at it for laughs, I don't get in a twist over it. If you want to see me get in a twist over something get me started on the SJ movement.

This is one thing I like about Tumblr. But it's quite easy to tune out whatever triggers you don't like and can easily become an echo chamber. Tumblr's known for its militant political/social movements and is THE home for them.

Agreed. That video I posted above covers all the bases.

The worst of them have scurried off already, at least off Brewster's. That was the entire point of adopting an anti-SJW stance in the first place. It's served its purpose so I'm back to poking at rather than straight up denouncing them.

I really don't see how a bunch of people who are mostly teenagers can possibly be "militant" but I mean..... okay I guess
?\_(ツ)_/?

The only issue I really have with tumblr which can leak onto other sites is the mindset that a few people have where you can't like anything that's 0.01 ounce problematic or have a "problematic fav" as they're called, even if you still criticize them acknowledge their faults. Obviously this doesn't apply to people who are like murderors or pedophiles or whatever but I'm not gonna shame someone for liking Beyonce.

You're right, they're mostly just being confused, angry teenagers. I think it's safe to say we've all been there at some point in our lives. They're more slacktivists, i.e. internet activists rather than people making a impact in the 'real' world.
