People thinking that their opinions are valuable

Let me be the first to say this is not a whine post. But I?m getting tired of people who having opinions. But it is impossible to stress that it is not the person having the opinion that is ultimately responsible. Nor is it the opinion. It is the person having the opinion in the first place.

So here starts. I have a good life but only because I don?t have an oinion. Most on here have opinions.But do you have as good a life as me? I think propably not. That?s the problem. But the problem is when they take said opinion and thinks that gives them jurisdiction over other person. Answer me this what good does your opinion do you and when?

Now I ask myself tough questions. Just yesterday while driving. But are you ready for the answer. Be warned the answer is not always good and smooth. And that is the reason why you have opinions. Better to have oinion and not the facts. I guess that?s what I get at.

Where do I get an oinion from?

Sausagesarenottheonlyfruit · 17/08/2011 01:38

I find life greatly improved once I bought an onion of my very own.

When I got it home I plonked it on the table and announced "that's shallot"

Sausagesarenottheonlyfruit · 17/08/2011 01:40

allset, you can get an oinion from a groingrocer

FreudianSlipper · 17/08/2011 01:42

so by not having an opinion i can have a good life

great now let me jsut go out there and find someone who is happy that i have no opinion on anything and can make my mind up for me

Heated onions can make you cry.

Big Fat Yawn

No need to go out there - isn't that what 'go compare' is for Slipper?Grin

But you don''t need to concern yourself with having opinions as, according to the OP, it's an absence of oinions that makes their life good.

Personally speaking I'd find a diet without oinions bland and lacking in flavour, but each to their own.

BuckBuckMcFate · 17/08/2011 02:58

Grin at groingrocer

Morloth · 17/08/2011 03:00

Onions give me terrible wind.

HerRoyalNotness · 17/08/2011 03:02

I could do with an onion to make decisions for me, I'm sick of it and H won't. Will they keep in the post?

Thumbwitch · 17/08/2011 03:42

at groingrocer. I like oinions. I have a good life. Is that allowed? Confused. Actually I tried to grow my oin oinions last year - we had red oinions. They were pretty good but we only had about 5. Does that mean my good life is shattered because I grew my own oinions? ConfusedConfused

BebeBelge · 17/08/2011 03:50

OP- what on earth are you babbling on about?? Had a few Wine, eh?? I guess not having opinions, or even oinions, just makes one dribble incoherently, but at least you are happy OP. Go girl!

savoycabbage · 17/08/2011 05:05

"I have a good life but only because I don?t have an oinion". This must be where I am going wrong. I bet I use an oinion every day.

I made a spag bol at the weekend with 2KG of mince and a whole bag of oinions. I wore my dd1's swimming goggles whilst I chopped them. And it hasn't stopped raining mince since. I can't get my washing out. So no, I don't have a life as good as yours OP.

Curse you oinions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Megatron · 17/08/2011 06:52

I don't even know what you're on about. But that's just my oinion so my life is probably shite.

deemented · 17/08/2011 06:56

It's my opinion (heh - see what i did there? Grin) that opinions are like arseholes. Everyone has one and they usually stink.

missmogwi · 17/08/2011 07:10

Hahahaha. Me and my mine are going to have a very tough few days from today and this utterly bonkers OP and your responses have just made me pig snort the kids awake. Thanks for the cheer up'

hairfullofsnakes · 17/08/2011 07:19

Maybe you should learn to write, think and speak in at least some kind of semi-intelligent manner before you attempt to start a thread. My opinion? You are a bit of a twit who is talking crap. Ahh... Saying that has made my life better so boo hoo to you!

Whatmeworry · 17/08/2011 07:23

I have had a miserable life so far but today I am going to get me some oinions from the groingrocer, thank you so much OP. May get a nice cock to pluck too.....

TandB · 17/08/2011 07:26

"But it is impossible to stress that it is not the person having the opinion that is ultimately responsible......it is the person having the opinion in the first place."

This makes no sense. But that might just be my oinion of course.

PerryCombover · 17/08/2011 07:37

is this scientology?

Andrewofgg · 17/08/2011 08:06

Thank you one and all for getting the day off to an entertaining start - may it stay that way!

sausagesandmarmelade · 17/08/2011 08:46

I certainly have an opinion on your spelling and grammar...and you wouldn't like it. I struggled to make sense of what you said.

Having an opinion in no way relates to a persons standard of living.
