I'll go first ...

B&M is over rated

Most of the home decor is tacky
I can get cleaning products at in the supermarket without a separate trip.
It's not super cheap like people say when you really compare the prices

I completely agree with you re B&M, I've never liked it. Home Bargains is much better.

My unpopular opinion is that polyester clothing looks and feels cheap and unpleasant - either slimy or scratchy in texture. Why are high street brands putting so much plastic in our clothing? Wouldn't natural fibres be a) more comfortable and b) more environmentally friendly?

Roast dinners are shit

Not everyone should wear leggings…

People should stop flying - they are wrecking the planet and don't need to be able to jet off somewhere on a whim.

No one else cares what you wear on the school run or plane. If you wear a dinosaur suit or a giraffe onesie they might notice... otherwise....

Where's SparklingBrook when you need her? 🤣

Most of the things trending on Netflix, in particular the rom coms, are rubbish.

I think pizza is horrible. The smell gives me instant nausea. I love carbs, cheese, and tomato/marinara sauces, so it makes no sense 🤣

I love B&M, great for monthly nesting

Riverlee · 21/05/2024 12:54

Never seen the appeal of B and M and similar stores either.

Yes mums seem to think that the school run is a fashion show and requires whole new outfits

Bridgerton is so overrated.

Streaming is too expensive.

Women should give more thought to whether having children is what they want as opposed to what they think they should do.

KStockHERO · 21/05/2024 12:59

Reported you, OP, for blasphemy 😂

I agree with you a bit that some of the home wear is shite, and that its not always that much cheaper than the supermarket.

But, they have absolutely everything in there under one roof. Their plants (indoor and outdoor) are amazing and un-killable. They sell completely random food stuff that you can't physically get anywhere else.

Babies with ear rings and bows look cruel and chavvy.

Grown ups who love Harry Potter or Disney are weird.

PossumintheHouse · 21/05/2024 13:03

Music concerts are a massive waste of time and money, unless you're in a small venue with a small amount of people.

Ginmonkeyagain · 21/05/2024 13:06

Most people should not be allowed to own pets.

Adipocere · 21/05/2024 13:08

All reality TV is crap

Pieceofpurplesky · 21/05/2024 13:16

Track suits should only be worn in the gym or at home. They don't belong in pubs or restaurants. Especially grey ones.

lotsofpeoplenametheirswords · 21/05/2024 13:23

Babies and toddlers who wear adidas joggers, adidas sweatshirts and trainers in little sizes look terrible.

TheDandyLion · 21/05/2024 13:26

I couldn't give a shit if it's cream or jam first.

People who post ‘what colour are my eyes’ with a close up of their eyeball are attention seeking twats.
