Mothers-in-law are warm and lovely people.

I hate threads like this because many people use them as excuse to share bigoted opinions wrongly thinking they’re upsetting ‘snowflakes’ and ‘woke’ people by saying something everyone sees everyday on Twitter.

They descend into shit and get old and boring before the end of page 1.

I don’t like truffles (not the chocolate type).
Pomegranates are more trouble than they are worth.

AtomicSquirrel3 · 06/10/2019 15:38

Ed Sheeran is shit.

Savingforarainyday · 06/10/2019 15:39

Dirty Dancing is a terrible film

I agree

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 06/10/2019 15:40

Not a fan of ‘chick flicks’. Nah.

SafetyAdvice0FeedWhenAgitated · 06/10/2019 15:52

I don’t like truffles
Truffles are indeed a Devil's poop 😷

Half of today's "singers" would be laughed out of producer's offices for a lack of talent in a past.

IWantMyHatBack · 06/10/2019 15:53

Bridesmaids is a really really shit film, and Melissa McCarthy isn't funny

NaviSprite · 06/10/2019 15:56

Computer games don’t turn a child’s brain to mush and can actually be beneficial.

Moderation is the best approach to most life changes (healthy eating in particular) and fad dieting needs to stop.

We don’t need to label every aspect of the human condition.

It’s not the end of the world if you let your toddlers watch a bit of telly so you can get some housework done/a few minutes breathing time!

May not seem that unpopular here but I’ve been told off for the above points.

PhilSwagielka · 06/10/2019 15:57

I don't think Everton's shitness is all Marco Silva's fault. I blame it on our idiot players.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 06/10/2019 15:57

I’m sure you adore your kid and think they are amazing, wonderful, brightest kid ever, incredibly talented, centre of the universe, farts roses... but I don’t...

PhilSwagielka · 06/10/2019 15:58

@AtomicSquirrel3 Solidarity fistbump from a fellow Ed Sheeran hater.

Ed Sheeran is shit
Wholeheartedly agree...as are Adele and Queen.
Peaky Blinders was boring

MissMarks · 06/10/2019 16:03

World has gone mad in relation to gender issues and kids are becoming confused.

KronksSpinachPuffs · 06/10/2019 16:05

Beyonce is overrated!

She has some tunes from the early-mid noughties but that's it. From her lemonade album onward is absolute shit.

SpecialKRocks223 · 06/10/2019 16:11

Snapped and farted wasn't funny

AMAM8916 · 06/10/2019 16:14

My probably popular opinion is that people with unpopular opinions that feel the need to voice them are annoying, think they're special and quite edgy when they really aren't.

Oh and chubby babies are cute! How can you change the diet of a baby having just milk? 🤔. Put them on a water diet? Change their genetic make up?

UnderperformingSeal · 06/10/2019 16:14

Strawberries are overrated.

jennymanara · 06/10/2019 16:20

Bacon is horrible.
All tattoos are horrible.
Mothers matter too and should not always put their kids first.
Breastfeeding is not always worth it.

flyingspaghettimonster · 06/10/2019 16:22

Thanks giving is better than Christmas.

JacquesHammer · 06/10/2019 16:22

Rugby Union is far easier and far duller than Rugby League.

People who “spit out their tea laughing” are just sycophants hoping for a quick passage to a thread on Classics.

flirtygirl · 06/10/2019 16:22

1.Most schools are childcare and produce mainly government approved sheeple.
Squeezing the imagination and life out of the next generation so they become docile and pliable.

Real education is dying.

  1. The current identity politics is crap amd another thing that will keep white middle and upper class men in power as the rest of us are just fighting amongst ourselves.
  1. I am not cis anything and if you call me that then I will call you by your biological title. If you have no respect for me then I have no respect for you.
  1. Most people live like pigs. And that's being mean to pigs.
  1. Veganism is great but lots of current vegans are just twats.
  1. Brexit is the death of the UK and our rights as we know them. Unpopular opinion to some.
SellFridges · 06/10/2019 16:23

@PhilSwagielka - best user name ever. I’m a Blade and adore Jags. I only tolerated him leaving Bramall Lane because my husband is an Everton fan.

My unpopular opinion is that people who go for walks are show offs.

flirtygirl · 06/10/2019 16:25

Also of people don't like or don't want to air their unpopular opinion then why come on this thread at all.

Everyone is free to ignore and bypass threads they don't like or don't want to comment on.
