Unpopular Opinions

I feel like school doesn't test actual intelligence, and people should stop using that as a basis of measuring intelligence. Just annoys me how some people always say the smartest people they know are the ones with the highest grades. There. is. more. to. it.

I agree with you. Being intellectual does not equate to the type of education or grades you receive, it is more for the amount of knowledge that one possesses pertaining to the relevant topic. A "smart" person can flunk while a "dumb" person can pass. They're not mutually exclusive. The "agreeable" perception is that knowing a bunch of things makes one intelligent and while there is truth to it, it perpetuates the notion that you need to be a cornucopia of information and skills.

Ditto @ all the academic posts! School is good for measuring linguistic or mathematic intelligence but not much else.

Idk if anyone knows about the 8 different types of intelligence? The theory goes that intelligence can be categorized into musical, spatial (arts), linguistic, mathematical, bodily?kinesthetic, interpersonal (social), intrapersonal (self-aware), and naturalistic. So even if a person is bad at school, their intelligence is probably just in a different category.

Spoiler: I'm putting this in a spoiler incase nobody wants to see this useless discussion

Are you saying that to be deemed as intelligent you need to basically be a database of knowledge? Or are you saying that's what society deems as intelligent, and you don't agree with it?

I feel that intelligence doesn't only have to do about knowing a lot of knowledge.. because that's exactly what school tests. Knowing knowledge.
I think that skill with problem solving, and your view/ outlook on life has quite a bit to do with it. But that is entirely my opinion, and is by no means fact.

holy **** did you say pizza? I love pizza! What a coincidence

 

[Astro Cake]

Good pizza is great. Bad pizza is a travesty.


Anyway, Ren & Stimpy? Wasn't all that great.

 

[Celestefey]

Maybe this is more of a popular opinion? ... Nah, definitely not. xD

I also think pizza is quite overrated! I hate pizza that you buy at the supermarket... It just tastes so... Gross. x3 Whereas going to a restaurant is much better because it tastes so fresh and lovely~ But even then it's not that great. Like, I'd rather have something else. Basically, pizza is not as good as everyone makes it out to be.

I hate Let's Plays
I don't care about what some guy has to comment on a game
I would ignore it but when I just want to look up a video with gameplay theres always someone talking in it like i dont care.... I want to listen to the music in game so I cant just mute it

 

[Espurr96]

Yes same here. I've found like one good video with someone talking lol.

Also I prefer having a separate music/mp3 player rather than Spotify or having it all in your phone.

 

[DoctorGallifrey]

Prince's Art Official Age album is really good

 

[Peebers]

pewdiepie is overrated. he just screams at the camera and earns $$ doing it.

he's not a bad guy tbh, but the fandom is cancerous.
