I would say

Pineapple on pizza is decent

I have given up on humanity collectively. We require SO much and most people are miserable anyway. What’s the point?

HoboSexualOnslow · 03/01/2021 09:32

The environmental impact of having another baby is more important than your broodiness.

@hicoolcatsandkittens

Tories are scum
Isn’t this a really popular opinion?

If your child needs nappies or can't use a knife and fork due to not being in school, then it is a parenting issue, not a school issue.

Toilet brushes should not see the inside of a dishwasher.

Treating your child as your best friend with no boundaries will result in the spoiled brat that you are now handwringing over where you went wrong.

@SimplyRadishing

£100k single salary is not that much in london. (And you can't afford a decent house and private school fees on a salary of that size)
🙄🙄🙄🙄

@MsTSwift

If you need to have a secret running away fund you must be in a really really shit marriage.
Even when your husband knows about it and once topped it up?

I voted leave and I don't regret it
My kids go to private schools. I don't slate state schools so I dislike the "all private school kids are arrogant, snobby horrors" generalisations
Occasionally I swear at my children, as does my husband

That banging on about trans people isn’t feminism.

BatleyTownswomensGuild · 03/01/2021 09:40

Period houses are over-rated

You don't need a theme/colour scheme for your Christmas tree.

Lidl/Aldi food is a bit shit.

It's so funny that so many posters always rush to these threads to proclaim their beliefs about gender identity. Almost like it isn't an unpopular opinion on MN to think that a group of biologically male people are somehow women, but people don't know how to, or can't, defend it in any meaningful way, because it's incoherent nonsense so they just repeat it like a religious statement.

CardoMondo · 03/01/2021 09:41

People falling over themselves to worship a failing health system is ridiculous.

Nurses are not angels, they’re people who are employed in a particular role and get paid for the work they do. Like any other employed person.

Ereshkigalangcleg · 03/01/2021 09:41

My unpopular opinion - these threads are goady, nasty and divisive.

No self catering holiday is!

Breastfeeding is a total waste of time and provides zero benefits in the long run.

Boarding school is for kids whose parents hate them.

Long-term SAHMs are usually incapable of anything more taxing than cleaning toilets and packing lunchboxes. Oh, and many people aren’t jealous of them, either.

The rise of plus size ‘curve’ ranges for the seriously overweight and obese is not a positive thing. And most of them look awful too.

urbanmist · 03/01/2021 09:46

For many people, their ‘mental health’ problems are just the ups and downs of daily life.

Plussizejumpsuit · 03/01/2021 09:46

People saying the US health care system is vastly superior have most likely experience insured (therfore privileged) treatment. Try being a poor uninsured person in the US and tell me you're in a better position than you would be in th UK.

Yes! You are so right...rather poke my eyes out with a big stick than do that!

I love a wedding where bride and groom ask for cash. So much easier than having to think what they might want/need/like.

Grey hair doesn’t need to be ageing. What’s wrong with ageing anyway?

I do not feel the need to look stylish and put together on the school run. People who judge me by how I look at 8:50 in the morning, can fuck off. I’ll normally have done at least two hours of wfh and some exercise by then, sometimes I run out time to style myself.

Crikey, if you have a husband I feel for him. Call man aid.

I like Baylis and Harding

@MichaelGoad

That the best way of dealing with a philandering husband is finding an incompetent overheated lawyer, making ducks argue with each other and covering him with foliage.
I got the first two points, but I haven’t worked out the third.

Men should have equal rights and choices in the care of their unborn children.
