Post your unpopular opinions

The food at Cracker Barrel is disgusting. And I don’t like bacon either.

This, a billion times this.

Too often “think positive” = “try to fool yourself into thinking things are better than they actually are.”

And “don’t complain” often just means, “Put a lid on that truth-telling, nobody wants truth.”

I view people unfavorably who use coupon as a verb.

Another bizarre, prejudiced, unsupported opinion brought to us by nearwildheaven. You admit there are very few Somalis in your area, but you sure do know a lot about all the rest of them. Have you ever met one? Well, I know plenty of them, and the ones I know are lovely people who are grateful to be living in a safe country. There are bad elements and gangs in any culture, and those are who one hears about. Whatever you’ve seen on your oh-so-many message boards is likely lots of fearful anecdotes, probably by people who know nothing about it. It must suck to live in your world.

I’m not sure how unpopular this opinion is, but I don’t think people generally seek the truth.

Rick and Morty isn’t THAT good of a show and pales in comparison to Archer on the “You have to be a bit smarter-than-average to get the jokes” cartoon scale.

Hell, the first 3-4 seasons of Family Guy are funnier/smarter than it.

I like pineapple on pizza.

Stephen Strasburg is a better pitcher than Max Scherzer. Scherzer May have more raw talent, but Strasburg plays for the team and Scherzer plays for his personal glory.

I do too, with ham, but it has to be big juicy pieces that get slightly carmelized in the oven.

Oh, I’ve seen plenty of folks who like the ham-and-pineapple combo; some places, it’s a menu item; the supermarket down the street has ‘em ready to go.

But if you offer me a free pizza — with any two toppings — I’ll go for pineapple and anchovies, which is a whole ‘nother level of “wait, that’s your go-to choice?”

You had me at anchovies. Anchovies, pineapple and onion.

+1

I LOOOOVE anchovies! That’s an unpopular opinion, all by itself.

I’ve never tried them with pineapple, though. Maybe I should.

I was once an assistant teacher in a program that helped refugee students from Somalia and elsewhere. One Somali kid was great, an earnest learner even as he struggled in a tough environment. But two others were some of the most horribly behaved students I’d ever seen. (if they were Somali - I’m pretty sure they were, but might have been some other African nation). They flat out bullied, were passive aggressive, untrustworthy, destructive and just totally self-centered and manipulative.

All we can definitively conclude from this is that you once had 1 great Somali student.

I like “We Built This City” by Starship. It’s a perfectly decent 80’s pop tune.

There’s a limit, dammit!

I don’t quite get this logic, care to explain?

ETA: I’m assuming you mean something to the effect of “Scherzer wants a K every time, but Strasburg will try and get the better to GIDP if a dude is on first”

Am I (heh) in the ballpark?

I might be going too far on this one:

In Force Awakens, people complained how Force newbie Rey could be so powerful compared to the trained and experienced Kylo Ren. I thought “Didn’t people watch the other Star Wars movies?” There’s an easy explanation:

Rey had a higher midichlorian count!

I thought “La La Land” was boring and switched it off after about 20 or 30 minutes.
