The Unpopular Opinions thread

Im sorry, but I don't like pickles, they just taste weird in my opinion.

I agree. I think pickles are gross and don't want them anywhere near my food. The pickle juice saturates everything so even if you remove them you still can't get rid of the taste. It's disgusting.
 
My favourite social media is Tumblr (as long as you block the 'controversial' tags that people like to whine about). I really like the helpful posts about life, writing and of course the amount of fanfics and fanart!) Reddit would be second due to all of the helpful posts I've found.

I basically can't stand the rest.
tumblr is not as bad of a platform as people seem to think, or at least, it isn't any worse than any other social platform out there. the truth is people of all different opinions from all different communities can be found on any social media, and the only thing that would result in the kinda stuff people complain about coming from tumblr being shoved in your face is deliberately looking for it, in most cases.

i owe a lot to tumblr, the artists on there helped me kickstart my motivation to improve at art myself, and some of the advice posts i've come across still stick with me to this day and consist of advice i regularly give to my friends!

i guess on the topic of social media, i fail to see any appeal in snapchat. everything you can do there you can do on any other social media platform plus more and it seems like the only reason to download it is because everyone else has it.

I still use Tumblr all the time for the art side of it. There's a lot of good artists who never left Tumblr and it's hard to find their art anywhere else sometimes. Also all the good gif makers are on Tumblr.

Sure, the political side of Tumblr can be toxic, but things have gotten slightly better since a lot of the morons have moved onto Twitter. Plus, political discussion is unfortunately terrible and toxic everywhere these days. Feel like it's just as bad if not worse on Twitter or Reddit or other places now, honestly.
 
I don't like mustard, ketchup, relish or dill pickles. Also bell peppers. They're just rubbery, waxy bits that don't belong in food.

I think Facebook takes the cake for most toxic political posts. The embarrassing part about that is that it's a big circle of 50 year olds insulting each other, rather than it be 13 year olds.

Oh yeah, I never use Facebook anymore, it's awful. It's the boomer social media platform. I only use it to occasionally keep up with family members since that's pretty much all I follow on Facebook. None of the memes or anything are good though. And since a lot of boomers use it, the political discussions are just dumb honestly. I just laugh at them, because a lot of these arguments are too stupid for me to take seriously. Kyle and Karen are locked in a furious debate and regardless of who wins, we all lose.

Also, not to get too political, but I'd rather not use a platform that has a CEO which has publicly admitted to selling your personal data and is totally 100% okay with that.

I mean, let's be real here. Don't they have kids to watch or a house to take care of? How do they have time to sit there and write essays to strangers about Trump? It just makes me too embarrassed to even bother going on comment sections there anymore. Regardless of the topic it's usually second hand embarrassment causing that these are full grown adults.

But besides that, the whole concept of it is just boring. I don't know if I've just outgrown it or what but I don't want to see yet another picture of your child or dog doing what everyone else's child or dog are doing. Nor do I want to hear about how your latest boyfriend is a jerk or showing everybody pictures of your Tim Hortons coffee. Like why. Nobody cares lol.

And yes, the whole data sharing thing is scary and in general makes me wanna stay as anon as possible on any site. The fact that he outright admitted to it makes me surprised that anybody is still actively using that site.
 
I don’t like Facebook because their are data sensitive and can track you and your IP and how many cringy and cheesy memes my classmates and others post on their wall. I only use it as Messenger for relatives and family, nothing else. And it’s the main reason I don’t use my real face as a profile picture because some people may steal your identity.

yeah i only use snapchat for streaks lmao, even then the only point of streaks is bragging rights. im also not a big fan of selfies so i rarely use the filters
 
I hate dogs.

They bark all the time for no reason, smell horrible and are just a chain around your ankle. Barking is not cute, I don't know why dog owners find it cute when their dogs won't shut up. If you wanna go somewhere you have to worry about the dog and either annoy one of your friends or family to watch it or pay someone to put it away in a kennel.

Just why bother imo.
 
To everyone who hates pickles: send them my way, I'll eat them!

Also, I agree about fancams. I love twitter, but I'm tired of looking at the top trends and seeing "#randomcelebisoverparty" and the topic has nothing to do with the actual celeb, it's just kpop fans telling everyone to stan their fave. Nothing against kpop either, I think they're very talented, but please just stop with this trend!
 
The best senate class in the US Senate is Class 2 (the ones up for re-election this year and in 2014). The worst senate class in the US Senate is Class 1 (the ones up for re-election in both 2012 and 2018).

dogs are one of those things to me that are nice to look at and say "aww, cute!" from afar, or from photos of them, but i'd never own one myself (unless a partner wanted one or something). i couldn't deal with the barking and walking every day. i'm a huge cat person and my cats already deal so much furniture damage and the like by themselves, i can't imagine trying to deal with a dog.
 
Not sure if this counts but I really, really, really do not like cheesecake.

The textures is gross, the flavor isn't that great, and its not a cake, its a pie... if pumpkin pie is a pie then cheesecake is a pie... its cheese pie.

Its the one odd food out for me that I've tried again, and again, and again, (in a variant of ways I might add) and just detested every time... I have now accepted my palette on this will never change, cheesecake is just so very gross to me. I'd make one for someone if it was their favorite, I don't mind that others like it, but me? Nah bro, no to the cheese pie.
 
Bubblegum bass is a mostly terrible genre of music, yet it’s critically acclaimed. Most of it combines vapid lyrics and unlistenable edited vocals. This is (rightfully) criticized when mainstream pop stars do it, but when it’s “bubblegum bass” or “PC Music”, people say it’s “experimental”, “ironic” and “the future of pop music”. 100 Gecs in particular make some of the worst music I’ve ever heard.
