For me, if I ask for an unpopular opinion and you say something about pineapple on pizza I’m going to assume you have no personality.

    Things aren’t actually all that bad. Seriously, in the grand scheme of things, yo, were doing OK. Antibiotics. Hot water. Sunscreen. Whiskey. Coffee. Shit, we’re frying things with the air now, man. As a species, we’re doing kinda OK. We could be doing better, but we’re learning. Some of us, anyway. There’s a lot to love out there in the world, and every day something beautiful can happen to you. Yes, even you, you crabby-ass removed.

    Most Mac ‘n’ cheese from scratch is poorly made and not good. You have to make a goddamned cream sauce base first. It’s not hard, it just takes giving a shit.

    People and groups generally are not inherently evil, and if you pay a little bit of attention, their actions are almost always logical to them (even if they are evil actions).

    A lot of people might think they agree with that…but start naming people and groups and they will call you names pretty quickly.

    Anyone can become an addict, it is not a genetic trait. If you use any additive substance long enough you will being addicted, there is no if, its just a matter of when.

    This includes alcohol and more people are addicted to alcohol then they want to admit.

    Christianity has a large user base but is unpopular. Jesus is the living God and through him is the only way to the Father. He didn’t come just to forgive us and get us into heaven, but for the kingdom of God to break into every area of life here and now - health, peace, justice and more. We won’t see the fullness until his return but he already came out of the grave once and he said he is coming back. Biblical timelines say we should expect him relatively soon.

    “The Beatles are overrated”

    Not only is it untrue, but even if you don’t like their music you’re an idiot if you can’t see their influence.

      Still overrated. Right place, right time. If it wasn’t them, it could have just as easily been someone else.

        Contrarianism doesn’t make up for a lack of personality. You not liking something doesn’t make it overrated.

            Idk if you put someone in a pilot seat that isn’t a pilot, it’s an extraordinary effort and newsworthy if they don’t crash the plane.

            Even if they got given the plane, they are still great pilots. Every album is novel and there are so many.

              I don’t think this person will admit that. They’ve convinced themselves that they know more about it than pretty much every artist that came after the Beatles.

    Most of our heros in movies actually kind of suck. They are for the most part only able to solve the world through violence because by some magical or supernatural or just bad writing, in an absurd position to do so.

    I blame this on why I have more people willing to literally kill or die for me in my life then willing to engage in uncomfortable dialogue or eat more fiber for me.

      “You like cream and sugar, not coffee.” Just, I couldn’t stand to try and argue with the guy because it matter so very fucking little to me but enough for me to remember the inanity of the argument.

        I like my sugar with coffee and cream, actually.

        When people say this about a frou-frou latte, I just tell them I don’t actually care - I usually drink black decaf but if I’m paying 6USD for a coffee, I’m making them work for it.

    I think C# is a perfectly adequate and fairly enjoyable programming language, even though I dislike Microsoft and their products.
