NC (not for this) but I'm long-standing MNer (Pom bear, naice ham...)

This might ruin the whole concept of AIBU but sometimes people pop up with opinions that I am shocked by, not because of what they are but just because they are so marginal. (SPs Cliff Richard obsession, for example?)

So, whilst encouraging you all to go forth and spread your weird and wonderful thoughts all over AIBU and elsewhere, what really unpopular opinions do you hold?

I have a couple of corkers, first one is that Kanye West however much of a knob he is actually is a genius.

I think we should let pandas as a species die out
because they are a bit of a cute evolutionary dead end

PresidentServalan · 20/11/2013 23:10

josephine I agree with everything you say - and I thought it was just me...... Grin

FreeWee · 20/11/2013 23:10

Page 24. We've not done too badly getting to almost 600 lighthearted posts before someone goes and spits venom on a simmering but not flaming thread. Night all.

I hate Disney.

usualsuspect · 20/11/2013 23:12

And that,OP.

Is why you should never start a thread like this.

notanyanymore · 20/11/2013 23:12

Ha! What Didactylos said ^^ hilarious!

MoominsYonisAreScary · 20/11/2013 23:12

Grin even, I do like the saying opinions are like arse hole, everybody has one (and some people talk out of theirs)

PresidentServalan · 20/11/2013 23:12

josephine It was me that said about the tax! And anyone who challenges certain views on here is called a bigot.

josephinebruce · 20/11/2013 23:12

Nought wrong with a bit of venom in a nest of vipers.

PresidentServalan thank you.

Oh dear, have I scared you off FreeWee ha ha ha

Weasleyismyking · 20/11/2013 23:14

Well that was a fun 20 pages. I particularly enjoyed the tectonic plates refusal.

HaroldTheGoat · 20/11/2013 23:14

Dare not read this thread, only skimmed the last one and I don't need rage at this time of night.

I suppose you were asked for unpopular opinions.

BumPotato · 20/11/2013 23:14

I can't get excited about the immigration "issue". I even think that it is ok for someone/a family to claim benefits if they've newly arrived in the country, providing they are making the effort to find work (which I believe is the criteria for nationals). I only have a problem with anyone who comes to the UK to commit crime.

We should stay on GMT all year round.
Painted toenails are unattractive.

Bowlersarm · 20/11/2013 23:14

What don't you understand about 'lighthearted', josephine?

HappyMummyOfOne · 20/11/2013 23:16

YY to little boys looking silly with long hair

Never understood why people want licences for dogs yet we let all sorts have a chld.

Spouses who claim they need go stay home to allow their OH to work, no you dont as there are such things as jobs within normal childcare hours Hmm

MySiamese · 20/11/2013 23:17

I think alcohol should be made illegal and cannabis should be legal. Like a switch around.

VerySmallSqueak · 20/11/2013 23:18

No josephine.
FreeWee said 'night all'.
That indicated she was going to bed.
You didn't scare her off.

Don't flatter yourself.
You're not big,and you're not clever.

The Big Lebowski sucks.

People judging me for ff can jog on- you're not me, you don't know my reasons and your opinion doesn't matter.

I hate, hate, hate the word chav, but will call someone a little knacker without flinching, thanks to Irish DH.

I love farting (just at home, not in public).

usualsuspect · 20/11/2013 23:20

Josophine was trying ever so hard to be controversial.

I judge people who are too dense to understand what 'lighthearted' means.

I hate partpoopers.

BumPotato · 20/11/2013 23:22

You need to start farting in public elQuint, it's what I do while shopping for entertainment these days.

SPsWouldCatFishNev · 20/11/2013 23:22

Anyone with conyo in their name is a cunt
