Lighthearted, give me your unpopular opinions.

I can start;

The musical Hamilton and Star Wars are over rated.

@LadyJaye

People who buy, and therefore encourage the breeding of brachycephalic animals should be shot. Your pug/Frenchie/Persian isn't cute, it's a terrible example of what happens when humans do bad things to perfectly good cats and dogs.

Fleabag was so cringe-inducingly awful it made me develop sudden-onset IBS.

See also: Motherland.

Yes on all counts!

False nails are stupid
Steak is overrated
Mince pies are horrible

Roast dinners are boring

I love my brand new SUV. I saw yet another snarky post about new cars today but if people like me didn’t buy new every few years where do they think their secondhand cars would come from?

@LadyJaye @Asianfemale - I third them opinions!! Absolutely spot on

Bogoffmda: He is fat it’s true- got fatter lately. Haven’t seen him chew gum but total turn off. Actually, my husband reminds me of a less fat GD. Also have to wonder why a man his age seems to have his Mum as apparently his most significant relationship.

ThumbWitchesAbroad · 29/03/2021 00:25

I didn't like Hamilton either.

Terry Pratchett was an amazing author whose work showed great depth of understanding of the human condition, and showed his enormous range of knowledge. Still finding bits now and going "oh THAT's where that bit in Terry Pratchett's book came from!"
I know that critics were often sneerily dismissive of his works because fantasy fiction - but that just makes them snobs. Wink

ThumbWitchesAbroad · 29/03/2021 00:26

Oh and yeah - I hated Fleabag too.

notimagain · 29/03/2021 00:27

The EU are great.

Aviation and the travel industry are essential industries.....

Having children is selfish

Mother87 · 29/03/2021 00:28

The Beatles/Tina Turner & Michael Jackson are (mostly) awful & hugely overrated.
Reality TV & any shows with whooping and yelling should be banned
Alcohol/vaping & chewing gum should be banned

Happymum12345 · 29/03/2021 00:28

Some nurses are really, really unkind & shouldn’t be in that profession.
Some teachers are awful too and seem to enjoy the power they have over children.
Bullies nearly always get away with treating people badly.
Lidl pain au chocolat’s are the best.

Biffbaff · 29/03/2021 00:31

Dungarees on anyone over the age of 6 are infantile. Ditto pinafore dresses.

Signing your cards including your pets' names is really, really lame

Ghosts are real

@Libraryghost

People who post inspiring quotes on Facebook are utter twats.
that is NOT an unpopular opinion
HeelsHandbagPerfumeCoffee · 29/03/2021 00:36

Children don’t want or need all their after school activities it’s for pushy parents
belief in ghosts & other made up woohoo is an affectation. It doesn’t render you interesting

SophieGiroux · 29/03/2021 00:37

The TV programme "Friends" is shit

Quaagars · 29/03/2021 00:37

I like positive affirmations and read some bedtime ones before I go to bed every night

darklady64 · 29/03/2021 00:38

Pimms is disgusting - tastes like cough mixture
Lord of the Rings is boring as hell
Terry Pratchett isn't funny

On average, American healthcare is better than the NHS

Fleabag was self reverential middle class shite
Mc English woman whining about her privileged life
