🚨 (Light hearted thread alert)

I HATE prosecco- it’s horrible- it’s tastes like fizzy piss. (No i’ve never tasted urine before but this is how I imagine it would taste)

I also hate crisps. They are the opposite of cake- mmm cake.

Mrs Browns Boys is not funny whatsoever. I tried to watch a few episodes but my eyes started bleeding.

I hate watching people dancing. It’s boring. I do not understand why Strictly is so popular.


Please tell me your unpopular opinions? Grin

Marzipan/Amaretto/Bakewell tart is disgusting.

Parents who cannot parent their children should not be allowed to procreate.

I’m a woman and “running a home” certainly does not come naturally to me, I’m an untidy lazy slob and fine with it tbh.

Agree new builds are shit and babies aren’t cute.

Alcohol is overrated and the drinking culture in the UK is vile.

It’s not fatphobic to point out the health risks associated with obesity.

Private schools and inheritance should be abolished, and empty houses seized by the state

Affordable housing isn’t affordable

All starwars films are boring. So's james bond.

The theme tune they use for this on the radio is from playbus (bbc kids show from the late 80'/early 90s).

Donuts. Hate them and everyone thinks I'm mad for not liking them. They're just too... Doughy! And filled ones are even worse!

Also, I genuinely think all babies are beautiful. I think that's an unpopular opinion because I always hear the opposite! Just being a baby is enough to be cute to me.

I find singing talent shows so cringe worthy that if I see even a glimpse of one I have to turn the TV off.

I hate cooking. Cooking from scratch is messy and time consuming. I don't understand why people enjoy doing it every day, often several times a day.

There is too much crying on TV. Get away from me with your sob story.

I also wish people would stop speaking in sound bytes and clichés on TV.

If you don't know the difference between "generally" and "genuinely" and "specific" and "pacific" don't use them - you sound daft.

I loathe tattoos. I think they look disgusting.

Adele is overrated as a singer.

Oasis' Wonderwall and Robbie Williams' Angels are shit songs.

Gin is minging, in ALL its incarnations. Vodka rules
This is it an unpopular opinion in my house.

Mine is that Cheese with mouldy blue bits, that stink the fridge out belong in the bin and not on crackers.

I really miss unpopular opinions since I’m not commenting. One of my favourites was little kid who said all films are rubbish because they’re too long.

Christmas is my least favourite time of year. Greed, waste, consumerism, the same boring crappy music every year and pretending to be nice to people you dislike but who happen to be related to you.

What could be more fun? Angry

Cooking food fresh and from scratch is just making extra work for yourself.

Reading to your kid everyday isn't going to make that much of a difference in terms of educational achievement, any advantage is probably down to confounding variables.

Most of the people who enthuse about nature and the countryside probably wouldn't be as enthusiastic if they sat down and had a good honest think about it. Let's face it - in reality it's often rather dull, and rather uncomfortable.

I realise I'm giving up any pretentions to middle class-ness by saying this; they'll be taking my myWaitrose card off me and peeling my National Trust sticker off my windscreen.

[quote ItchyScratch]@allfurcoatnoknickers
Totally agree on the new builds. I live in a city where all of a sudden they are popping up EVERYWHERE and as I like walking I watch the progress and it is so unbelievably shocking how quickly they are knocked up.
Definitely soulless[/quote]
But there is a housing shortage so they may be soulless but fairly essential. I live in a 140 year old house and its actually a fucking nightmare to maintain so I get why people choose the new builds. And yeah the housing shortage thing....

I don't think a thread like this can ever be light hearted.

They always quickly descend into people sharing hateful thoughts that most normal people could never agree with (eg. I think Trump has some valid points to make).

There must be some other light hearted fluff you could share that would entertain you OP?

I do not like dogs. I am not scared of them, but I dislike the dirtiness of them (slobber, drool, licking, smell, shedding and poo).

Wine and beer are vile, just can’t understand how people like the taste.

Cake has a horrible texture.

Holidays are overrated ( but I love time off work)

Coffee stinks and makes me want to vomit.

Pantomimes are cringey and overpriced.

Summer is the worst season, fucking heat and migraine inducing bright light.
