The Unpopular Opinions thread

[Corrie]

I don’t wear leggings because I’m a male. And when I do make female characters, I don’t even make them wear leggings (even when leggings as pants isn’t optional in games).

Pokémon Sword/Shield brought attention to an even worse fashion - shorts under skirts. Not that it’s a problem, but the problem in Pokémon Sword is that the skirt options are way too short (even shorter than the shorter skirt options in Pokémon Sun/Moon) and that they contain shorts that are slightly longer than the skirts.

Some Pokemon characters have a questionable fashion sense. Like Brendon's pants pants. What even is that? lol. And Dawn's uggs with shorts. Girl, is it summer or winter? Choose.

I think college students should dress more professionally when attending class. I’m getting tired of this sporty look (i.e. leggings as pants with a t-shirt, oversized t-shirt with short shorts (not the denim kind, but what’s more associated with sports)). Remember when I criticized leggings as pants? I’m targeting an even bigger picture.

I tend to wear comfy clothing too, but only for bed, not as casual wear for professions or shopping.

Couldn’t agree more. Everyone in my old high school dressed that way. It kinda made me wish we had uniforms.

-pokemon x and y & pokemon oras were kinda underrated.. i never really see anyone talking about them?? (then again, i'm not as huge of a pokemon fan as i used to be)

-i don't understand people bragging about disliking popular characters like raymond..
-i think that lunala and xerneas are the best legendary pokemon ngl
-yo kai watch should be more popular in america, and people should stop assuming it's a pokemon ripoff (trust me, it's not..)

Yo-kai Watch SLAPS.


Its a lot easier to collect and raise a ton of different yokai, and the exploration and side quests make the game really addictive. Its a really weird game and definitely has its corny moments but its still a ton of fun.

This is the bane of my existence! By this point I just try to ignore the horrible fashion sense in the Pokemon world tbh.

 

[DarkDesertFox]

Not trying to be a hater since I think the concept for both Fall Guys and Among Us is very creative and I'd like to play the games as well. However, I think it's a really unhealthy thing society does when ONLY trending game(s) show up everywhere on social media and talked about instead of more variety. Eventually people are going to probably talk crap about both games because they got tired of seeing it or it's "cringey" for liking them because a younger audience overwhelmingly starts playing them. It's a repetitive pattern that gets old. Spice up the topics and let people enjoy the game if they're into it at the same time.

Yeah, and all these ugly hats and caps, like were they sponsored by McD or something, why weird ass headgear?! At least you could change in later games but wmh lol.

lol what do you expect people to go to college looking like theyre going to prom every day

i like cold pizza Lol

Also not only on leggings, but those pegleg slim fit pants in general that you can hardly pull over your foot and it's look like you have a giant diaper around your thigh area. Unless you actually need to wear a diaper please don't wear them.

"Egirl" isn't an insult. Please stop throwing the word around as if it's a bad thing cuz it isn't. :^))))))))

Also again, I'm just super tired of how anything that is "girly" or popular with girls is deeply hated and frowned upon. I'm tired of this trope oml.

Yeah when I first heard the word "simp" I honestly thought it was incel lingo. If someones a "twitch thot" thats fine, they clearly have a market and theyre free to do what they want. I swear sweaty gamer men just hate seeing women succeed

The only concern I have with it is how young some of the girls are, I think someone should be at least 21 before they put themselves out there in any kind of suggestive or explicit way

I fully agree. I hate it because sometimes the games are actually really good but I get a sour taste in my mouth due to overhearing about it that I don't give it a chance. Then when its popularity fades, I usually look into it if interested and try it out. Due to this, I usually get behind on getting into a game that everyone's already moved on from. This has happened with Let's Go Eevee and Undertale so far.

Yeah, same. Though I don't game much these days, so I guess I'm less caring about rabid fans though Splatoon 2 still got so many smurfs and trolls in game that is for sure ruining a bit for me.

Aw, that's the worst. I've found that over the years I don't want to get into fandoms or any sort of community. Usually they're good at first but I find that once they get bigger, they turn into a mess. I'm not sure why but it's happened with quite a few fandoms I've joined. They're just so.... they just complain about everything and make everything a big issue. It's such a downer. It used to be just Tumblr being Tumblr but it's spread like a disease.

Yeah, here it's mostly people in-game ****posting message or just make a ton of smurfs for every splatfest etc. I don't really go on splat fan sites or stuff but some people just take the fun out.

And yep I try to avoid them for most part no matter what.

Octagon Park from Roller Coaster Tycoon isn’t a hard scenario at all. You just need patience to complete it.

Normally when I play scenarios in Roller Coaster Tycoon, I try to get it done as fast as possible, but some I try to play with patience, which takes several years in-game.

My eyes rolled into oblivion when I saw that simp had entered the modern internet vernacular. It's been slang in my culture for decades and seeing Gen Zers, internet funnymen, and people on the 'outside' (if you catch my drift) calling it annoying 'new lingo' has always irked me. I suppose I'm used to it, since bits and pieces out outdated slang ends up in their mouths, anyway. It just annoys me when I use said slang words in an appropriate context and some under-20 from the suburbs asks me why I'm using 'those stupid internet words'

Well dear, that's because I'm...

I have no problem criticizing fandoms and fanbases, but I suggest that people should be respectful of others’ religions. Now political groups I’m 50/50 on. You may criticize each party or political group for what they done wrong, but to be extreme with your criticism (like making “Republican” synonymous with “white supremacy”) is not okay.

What I don’t get is why would the site staff on TBT would defend fandoms and hatedoms. There literally is a hatedom that wished that everyone from Game Freak get COVID-19 for making decisions the hatedom is unhappy with. Yet we can’t create threads criticizing these fandoms and hatedoms.

I mean, I don't like Gamefreak but wow, that's too far.

I agree with you about religion ONLY if they aren't using religion to spread/practice hate towards others. Then I'm not okay with it and I will criticize it.
