I only like sports if they have a video game mascot slapped on it. That's a unpopular opinion?


On here, not even close.

It would be more unpopular on here for you to say you play FIFA.

^ Most people hate baseball? At least it's way better than cricket. Nobody here likes cricket either but I'd much rather watch baseball.


Late as hell but loads of people on this site seem to either be bored by sports or hate them with an irrational passion. And even the few who like sports tend to vastly prefer American football or basketball.

In the general population those sports tend to be the more popular ones, whereas baseball is frequently cited as being boring and taking way too long to finish.


im gonna build on this with an unpopular opinion of my own, football is literally boring as **** and basketball and baseball are vastly superior

that being said, when it comes to olympic sports, only three interest me: table tennis, swimming, and beach volleyball


I vaguely dig football and keep planning to watch more each season, but I do think the popularity of the sport is going to wane the more we learn about concussions and the effects they can have.

That said, I think basketball or soccer/football will be the sport that overtakes football. Not baseball like r/baseball would like to think.

Everyone who voted for Trump and Brexit would rather lie in the couch, watch crappy TV and treat their family like dirt than actually for a job because they're lazy entitled narcissists who think they should be given everything because they're white heterosexual men. Also... people who use religion to justify their evil deeds don't really care about church or reaching out to others. Yes, this includes Christians.

P.S. This is probably the only place I can vent out my anger.

This is less an unpopular opinion and more just me justifying a weird verbal tick I have

I use "dude" as a pretty gender neutral term because I feel like there's no real equivalent of that word for girls. Sure, there's "dudette" but that's corny and I'm already Adventure Time levels of weird phrasing as is. "Dude" brings good vibes, man. I don't feel the need to trap it to a gender.

Agreed. I do the same with "man" and "guys" when referring to a group.

I think the Nintendo Switch will be a success once all the bumps are ironed out and there's more games made available for it. Maybe not as big as the Wii, but certainly better than the Wii U.

Not sure if this counts as an unpopular opinion or not, but I don't feel like the backlash animation memes are getting is warranted.

I mean, there's been good critiques regarding their lack of variance and repetitiveness, but a lot of these cringe compilations just seem to be taking jabs regarding the compiler's biases rather than pointing out bad animation.

A lot of these memes have a lot of skill and talent. I see a lot of unique art styles, fluid transitions between frames, and sometimes variance in the style of animation.

I feel like Solar Sands critiqued the main issue well, in that artists should push themselves to draw more than just a couple of frames with the character's head bobbing, and the like. Yes, they are mostly exercises, but there has been a trend of them not having as much effort put in as they could.

Despite this, people still get the wrong idea and jump into the "animation memes are cancer" bandwagon. But I guess YouTube cynics will always be YouTube cynics, and just want to complain about things that have furries and Warrior OCs.


Also, can we stop calling bad animation and art "cancer"? Please? Because it's just bad art that the artist needs to improve on, it doesn't freaking kill people by the masses or anything, or at all. What a way to discourage young artists, comparing their work to an incurable disease.


I've been watching too many deviantArt rant videos, yikes.

Low hanging fruit too. It's alright when someone brings up Konami in a related video and brings some good points, but are you really making an entire video to **** on them with no regular subject when everyone already does it? At least I Hate Everything always tries to go for what people usually don't point out in a movie.

I like being white as well. Liking your own race doesn't signal any sort of contempt for other races in itself.

But yeah, it's easy for me to say that since I live in Finland where everybody is white.

I just don't really like the notion of pride in general. Pride is when you take something and hold it in such high value that you attach it to your ego and make it a part of your identity. That way anything that goes against the thing itself also goes against your ego, and you find yourself having to defend whatever you're proud of.

In most cases people should just opt to being happy instead. Pride has it's uses, but I find that it's mostly uncalled for.

Honestly, I think the PPG 2016 reboot is kinda overhated. I understand people complaining about memes, but truth be told, it's just basically making mountains out of molehills, and they don't really bother me that much. I KNOW why people hate them (especially the "twerking" scene in Painbow), but these jokes affect me like a Tackle attack on an Aggron (needless to say, a little bit of damage).

Possible spoiler regarding Star Wars: Rogue One-

I'm so over people constantly whining about CGI Tarkin and Leia in Rogue One. I honestly thought the effects looked fantastic, especially since this is the first time a movie is really trying effects like these. There's a first time for everything and it was really impressive for its first try. I didn't even know the actor who played Tarkin died until after I finished the movie and looked more into it, I just thought they got the original actor and used some effects to make him look younger.

I agree with this to some extent. I don't think kids should be exposed to super gory stuff and other subjects of a similar caliber, because their minds would be too young to handle it and they would be absolutely mortified.

However I believe there's no reason to shield children from foul language. There's really no reason. That's just excessive censorship imo.

I also don't think foul language is necessary to be censored (but I see the reason why). But I think that children shouldn't be blatantly exposed to extreme violence, high sexual content or subjects that are too complex for them. Obviously some family-friendly content used a bit of those sometimes (mainly the third one), but it wasn't blatant, so it was more of a thing for the older public to enjoy while not changing the age rating.

I also think people need to understand the difference between censorship and age rating. Generally, only TV content and some extreme examples of games and movies are actually censored. The rest just gets the age rating, which doesn't stop the kids for watching at home, it's more of a recommendation. I don't know how it works on other countries, but here, a kid younger than the age rating of a film can still watch it on a cinema as long as a parent is following the kid. So yeah...

Kids don't have as much control over language as adults do, though? I have three younger siblings and they curse because they've been exposed to that sort of thing.

So I think that's a pretty idiotic thing to say. And you really shouldn't say foul things around kids, because they're more than likely to repeat it.


But my point is I don't think there should be a problem with repeating it. I think it's not necessary to block that sort of thing out. I can't think of a single legitimate reason they should be shielded from it.

Because foul language is exactly that? It's foul, and it's negative in every sense of the word.

Please don't talk about things that you have absolutely no understanding of. Come back and talk to me if you have your own kids or siblings because then you'll understand.


I don't see any reason it should be though. You're not really giving me any real answers, you're just saying "It's bad because it's bad". I do have a younger sibling and I see no reason as to why she should be avoiding these words.

I know you're not very fond of me but geez, no need to act like a dick because I have a different viewpoint.

It's a really idiotic viewpoint, though? It's like you have absolutely no common sense about how society works?

Society as a whole views foul language as a negative thing. Because of this, kids shouldn't be exposed to it anymore than things such as gore or sex.
Kids are extremely impressionable an often repeat what they see. Obviously not all kids do this, or at least as much as others, but most do.

Kids do not always have complete control over what they say, and sometimes things might slip, which will get them into even more trouble, especially in public.

If society as a whole didn't view foul language as such a negative, taboo thing, then this wouldn't be a problem.
But the fact is that it is a negative thing, which is why it's called foul language.

This isn't the only time that you've lacked basic common sense about how society works, from what I recall, which is why I'm a little ticked.
That, and you don't have to put up with my eldest younger brother all the time. (He's an asshole, btw)


I've never been good about explaining my views, but here's an article I found that explains my thought process pretty well.

EDIT: I only read the first couple paragraphs of this one but from what I read it brings up really good points.
