The Unpopular Opinions thread

[-Blue-]

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.

Probably depends on what subs you go to. I sometimes hop on to the subs about fixing things like fixit, antique restoration ect. I like to do hands on projects, but don't quite always have the know how, and some of them on there are very knowledgeable, helpful, and kind.

Then you get some of these crazy bigoted subs like the AITA sub is basically just an echo chamber for the holes now.

Steven Universe had a lot of potential but was sadly an absolute dumpster fire of a TV show.

There's nothing wrong with enjoying children cartoons as an adult and it doesn't mean that you are immature if you enjoy them.

Not sure if this is unpopular or not but I hate nuts. They just taste dry and nasty to me. Especially chocolate with nuts . I mean no offense if you like nuts, but that's not my cup of tea.

the only nuts i like are peanuts, the rest can frick off i just hate the way they taste and eugh I also don't like nuts in sweets unless it's peanut butter

I like reading lengthy posts (depends on what the topic is but still, I like reading really passionate or excited posts); I tend to write pretty lengthy posts myself .

True, a lot of kids cartoons like sesame street are designed for kids AND adults and I don't see anything wrong with it, heck my cousin watches sesame street sometimes and he's 27 yet he's not immature

i like reading them if it's something I'm super interested in and it's able to keep my attention, otherwise my adhd says "lol this is too boring do something else already" after reading the first few words

Biblical allegories are lazy writing, and an attempt to elevate your work.

Cheerios are nasty and bland. I’m not a big fan of cereal in general.

I don’t know if this is an unpopular opinion, but people at work should be paid by their work ethic, not how long they’ve been employed. I know people who worked jobs for years making more than new employees that perform their job better. The people who’ve been there for years don’t try nearly as hard but get paid more.

I agree. There are obviously exceptions but a lot of the time, people who work at a place longer get rather sloppy and seem not to care anymore. I've seen it at my work with some of my coworkers.

Brewster is my least favorite NPC out of all games, except shrink.

I don't like social media (though I use TBT)...

 

[Alienfish]

TBT is more a forum not a social media though yeah. I have a certain image one but it's more or less to follow stores/randoms i like rather than being active.

CJ and Flick are the worst AC npc's.

Agreed. I don't get why they were created? Daisy Mae too. Like, the others worked just fine?

Agreed! CJ I annoying and reminds me of that one youtube obsessed with his fans and whatnot and flick is, just wierd. His design doesn't reflect his personality. I'd like him more if he didn't wear gangster clothes yet still talk like a wierdo obsessed with art

She grosses me out so much, I can't stand to look at her.

Not sure if that's an unpopular opinion, but I find it extremely boring to look at other people's baby fotos/videos. Most babies look similar and do similar things. I could as well be looking at a stock foto library of babies.

Some relatives and family friends just love whipping out their phones at any given moment to show me five minute videos of their 4 month old crawling on the floor. Or the same pic of the same baby but "oh - here he blinked! Here he looked at the couch!". It seems to be a social/cultural taboo to show disinterest. I'm usually a very polite person and I do like children (once they are a bit older) but baby vids are just the single most boring thing to look at for me.

Yes! I don't get why people act like their baby is so smart or funny or cute or whatever. They look all the same and basically do the same things. Like, it's a baby, it has no personality asides from the typical human behaviour of sleeping, pooping, crying and eating. When they actually start showing more uniqueness as it ages, then it becomes more interesting to me.

I agree with this so much. My parents constantly gush about my nieces (when they were babies and even now). That honestly bothered/bothers me a little. Not sure why but I know for a fact I have no interest in looking at babies. Then again, I do the same thing with my cats .

I think the info in the pocket camp handout (the journals) should be free to everyone (since they’re not very good or helpful to me. the only thing nice is a hint of upcoming content). I’m on the trial right now and I took a look at that and yeah…not impressed by that. I like the sped up crafting times and the 60 leaf tickets though. Having Punchy follow me around is cute too
