The Unpopular Opinions thread

I think it got worse after the covid vaccine, too.

Like...nah, I didn't do a whole lot pre-covid. Why are you expecting me to be out and about, post-covid? I don't want to go to the bar or surround myself with a bunch of rowdy people. I've never been that guy. Don't expect me to go somewhere or do something unless there's good reason for it. (I would like to get back to concerts/festivals, tho). Lol.

KFC is overrated. It doesn't taste good at all and even McDonalds has better nuggets.

Agreed. It's so greasy and disgusting. I'd rather McDonalds anytime. It agrees better with my stomach too.

I'm back with another after my supervisor tried to guilt trip me about how I spent my time off from work last week:

There's nothing wrong with just chilling out at home during your time off from work or school. I'm so tired of people giving me looks when I tell them I've done nothing all weekend rather than being out and making the most of my spare time. In fact it sounds exhausting having plans 24/7 without a moment's peace to yourself and away from the hustle and bustle of daily life etc.

Yes! Every time I take time off from work, I have to field questions about where I'm going and what I'm doing. It gets tiring having to tell people over and over that I just prefer to stay at home. They look so disappointed.

If they like to go out, good for them. I should be free to stay home and relax on the weekends or my time off without being made to feel guilty.

Yeah while I don't eat a whole lot fried chicken, I agree.

And yeah no one should feel guilty for just "being" in their free time. I basically have to do nothing or stuff that doesn't drain energy mentally and physically cause I have a work and Asperger freaking sucks. I don't mind seeing people I know gives good vibes but yeah, really those people are just dumb if they think it's cool to have a lot of activities just cause.

Kpop sucks.

 

[Dunquixote]

I like the Fruits Basket Manga better than the anime. Even though this new remake version of Fruits Basket was a closer adaptation to the manga than the first one was, something still seemed off about it.

 

[Alienfish]

Kpop sucks.

Definitely prefer J-pop at least in terms of boy/girl bands. There is like 1 k-pop song I heard that I like and it's over 10 years old so yeah k-pop as of today for sure.

Mountain dew tastes like mountain nasty to me but everyone else I know seems to like it

The original Mountain Dew tastes nasty. I used to like Baja Blast (the flavor at Taco Bell), but not so much anymore. There are some flavors that I really like. My favorites are Passionfruit Frenzy and Baja Punch. I’m very picky when it comes to sodas.

ARE WE LIVING THE SAME LIFE??? I took a vacation not that long ago and decided to do something different and actually do things on my days off due to the pressure from co workers telling me i needed to do something with my time…. It was AWFUL. I didn’t relax at all the way i wanted to. Like what’s wrong watching a couple movies or laying in bed reading for a few hours?? Why does everyone feel the need to go go go?? Especially if you’re staycationing, like let me just chill at home and you can overrun yourselves.

I understand the mindset of wanting to accomplish things and be productive but my worth is much more than that and my time is more valuable to me when spending it on things that help me mentally, emotionally, or physically. If it’s not the same as you then get over it

Amen to everything you just said, it makes me feel better knowing there are more homebodies out there. We need to stick together and keep reminding one another that it’s okay to stay at home and just chill out rather than be on the go 24/7.

I think highlight your message option in twitch is stupid and an eyesore and obvious “hey i want attention.”

I am glad Necco Wafers came back.

probably not that unpopular but i think family vlogging channels should be illegal

I hate reddit’s upvote and downvote. I stopped using it since people would downvote me when I ask questions in a gacha game even when I was a new player (imgur too; they asked me to show a screenshot of something I was having trouble with and I got over 100 downvotes; keeping track where equipment was being used in ffbe was difficult for me and i tried to sell equipment i had no idea were equipped so yeah…).

Reddit is a joke just like Twitter and all the other places. I wouldn't take them personally. I see people asking legitimate and decent questions all the time and their post would have like a 30% down-vote even though they were being civil and polite.

Am I the only one who sees more intelligent stuff on Reddit than on most social media? I must avoid all the crappy parts of Reddit lol.

Reddit is definitely the most intelligent of social platforms imo, but also the most pretentious. So many know-it-alls on there. I think the downvoting system amplifies it.

I hate the downvoting part! It makes me so self-conscious so I rarely ever post on there. You're only supposed to downvote stuff that is irrelevant, but everyone abuses it

that’s why i don’t post anymore :/. people downvote after their friend requests got rejected since they don’t read “ i am looking for this captain; please have them out when sending request or I’m looking for players at x level only.” I have bad enough anxiety about annoying or offending people as it is, so downvotes just doesn’t help.
