Lighthearted, give me your unpopular opinions.

I can start;

The musical Hamilton and Star Wars are over rated.

Christmas pudding is vile. In fact, raisins should be banned.

That 'Imagine' by John Lennon is a shit song

Yep. I mean I get the message of the song but a bit of a piss take i.e. imagine there's no possessions. Which one of your mansions would that be, John ?

It's the crying and dribbling and I love this song that goes with it when people hear it that I fail to understand.

As for Robbie Williams, 'Angels' don't get me started.....

Nandos - a lot of fuss over chicken and chips. Pretty average too. It's student food isn't it ? For people new to eating in a restaurant. It's only one step up from KFC really.

Timothy Dalton was the only Bond that looked like James Bond should have looked.

Timothy Dalton was the only Bond that behaved how James Bond was described as having behaved.

Timothy Dalton was the best James Bond. It's like he 'got it' when the other actors were trying to prove a point about themselves rather than playing the role correctly.

@tangerinelollipop

Baby gender reveal parties are tacky

Yes. Baby showers are tacky too

Oh god, yes!

Tacky 'grabbyness' followed by vomit-inducing, attention seeking social media fodder.

Vile.

Slightly outing but my first baby had a flat nose my second was congested and looked purple my third was ok but they all looked better after a bath and a few days in the fresh air

@ViciousJackdaw

Clothes from Toast are basically oversized burial shrouds.
LOL! So too Cos. Or maybe Cos is hospital scrubs. I love the idea of Cos, it just doesn’t work on me. Ever. Sad.

Lorraine does my head in
Are you my Dad?

VisciousJackdaw you have absolutely nailed toast and Jumpalicious you have Cos.
And the bored looking models, and the companies that specialise in clothes for the Amish.

Fewer people should go to university
(But there should be more varied opportunities to gain qualifications)

100% agree. Imagine in particular is utter drivel.

Greggs sausage rolls aren’t actually that good

Sliced white bread, cold, is gross.

JustSleepAlready · 29/03/2021 09:18

Benjamin button was awful and boring
I find most advertised and rated movies are boring and predictable
I don’t like kardashians
I don’t like Lorraine
I like the term ‘karen’ because it’s the epitome of everything I don’t like in a person. But I will hate it if someone uses it against me!!( yes, I know)

Dogs should have off lead exercise if they have good recall

Cats should be allowed to roam

We all need to eat less meat and dairy

Mrs hinch is for people who need to get a life and stop polluting the planet.

I dont understand this. Karen is a persons name, but they cant all be a 'Karen' in the insulting sense.
I'd be really fucked off with the saying if my name was Karen!!

Hashtags.

Burger King is better than McDonald
Burger King burgers are better than McDonald's but McDonald's fries are the best.

Whilst we're talking about shit songs, I think Perfect Day is shit. Whining on and on....

Oldraver · 29/03/2021 09:30

@SarahBellam

Mother’s Day - not because it’s commercial nonsense but because advertisers all think that because you’re a mother you like Michael Bublé, Prosecco and cookery books.
Oh yes...I'm not into cooking dont like any wine type shit and wouldn't listen to Michael Buble even if he put a donk on it
OohThatCat · 29/03/2021 09:33

Winnie the Pooh is a dick. Watching a film with him on Disney the other day and he is a self absorbed twat who invites himself into Rabbit’s house, eats all his honey WITHOUT ASKING and then gets so fat from all the honey he stole, he gets stuck in his poor friend’s house. I know he’s only a cartoon character but he has not respect for anything or anyone and he absolutely pisses me off no end! Grin

Benjispruce2 · 29/03/2021 09:34

Zoe Ball has made me switch to radio 4!! Never thought that would happen, well not yet anyway. My mornings are now calm and well informed.

Tibtab - you need to mix it with tonic then it will taste better! :-)

Children singing is awful. ESPECIALLY choirs.
