Unpopular opinions #16

[MissTeddy]

On the vegan theme. The amount of vegan/plant based ads on tv and radio at the moment is doing my head in.

masquerading as healthy food but generally as ultra processed as a chicken nugget.

Lots of UO in my head, so I'll begin with an easy one.

Why aren't women demanding equality when fleeing from Ukraine. Why aren't they insisting that equal numbers of men should be allowed on the train.

Once again equality is only for the good things in life, and not for standing in line to be killed.

Yes, I know some women are refusing to leave without their husbands, but in most cases they are leaving.

All of the footage I’ve seen of women they mostly have children, are currently pregnant, or have elderly relatives with them.

My Facebook is full of kids dressed up for world book day and I’m sorry but no one else cares what your kid is dressed as and I have a 2 year old so I get the need to show off your kid but

Being a real grown-up comes with the realisation that you can go to the shop and buy cake whenever you feel like it.

Me every time I’m reminded of this fact

I can't understand people that want to be on the plane longer than needed. I'm always the last on.

Especially when everyone’s got allocated seats🥲🥲

Speaking of getting ready……

some young women wear far tooooo much make up. you don’t need to colour your face in and change your whole appearance.

 

[Brigitjonesbuttcheek]

So is it mandatory to dress up. What if you don't want to or your parents can't afford a costume

I know people say knock one up but you still need a sewing machine, or glue and materials that's all cost money.

Unpopular opinion. I think way more people have a drinking problem than we realise. I used to work in a convenience store of a major supermarket. And you wouldn't believe the amount of people who drink excessive amounts daily and think it's normal.

Unpopular opinion. I think it's pretty pathetic when people say that we shouldn't have plus size models because it promotes being unhealthy.
just because a model is slimmer doesn't necessarily mean that they're healthy, if they're taking class a drugs for example (obviously not all slimmer models do this I know), does that make them healthy and A good example??

It’s not as hard to make time to exercise as most people make out, most people are just lazy.

 

[OnlyHereForTheLolz]

I work with a guy who never drinks. He says he doesn’t like the taste. I think he’s an alcoholic and therefore can’t drink. I don’t understand ‘doesn’t like the taste’ beer taste completely different to champagne

Make it make sense?!?! I don't like the taste of alcohol and I might have ONE drink a year, normally for Xmas day or NY eve. How do you get to we must be alcoholics?

Unpopular opinion. I don't see why people have to tell everyone that their child is autistic. It's not an unpopular thing to have. In Ireland nearly every second child has it or some sort of sensory issue. And it' annoys the life out of me when they make an Instagram page their child being autistic. Making money , getting freebies. Embarrassing you're child on public platforms. People having 4 kids and the four of them being autistic? Why did you stop at the second child if the second has it. Poor children I feel sorry for.

Some parents (mainly the ones who have nothing else going on in their lives) make their child’s situation all about themselves, they thrive on the attention it brings them. Its very sad to see.

the child is the one suffering so stop making it about yourself, twats!

It's never too early to eat crisps.

You guys in the UK have it easy with the TV licence, in Ireland it is mandatory if you own a TV regardless of whether of not you watch RTE (our BBC). I didn't pay it and refused to open the door, had some cunt looking in my window to check if I had a TV I then got a letter threatening to bring me to court.

Vegans before I was with a group of friends and one of them was vegan, she wanted to go to some shitty Asian Street food restaurant but the rest of us wanted steak so we said fuck it. Work around us or don't come (6 meat eaters, 1 vegan). She had halloumi as her main, obviously not strictly vegan but likes the title. I had only met her once (that night), she had a buzz cut with hairy armpits as well. Her political views were insufferable. Pretty much ticked every woke/left wing stereotype. All she was missing was some blue hair.

I was diagnosed at 20 with BPD. I was relieved to see it in black and white, it explained everything I had gone through and was going through. I did a lot of work on myself and fought for help. It a real illness and its an exhausting and frustrating one for the sufferer and their loved ones. There will always be people who proudly hide beind their label and do no work on themselves, making it their whole personality.

 

[bananabutter]

Might not have been their choice to have one or even no 2

Disagree, there’s always a choice whether to have a baby or not

 

[FenellaTheWitch]

I think tattle is a bit obsessed with Trans in general (not saying there's not issues etc)

I've just noticed it always seems to find its way into other threads and every unpopular opinion thread so far

But so have fig rolls, breast feeding and smelly dogs to be fair

 

[OnlyHereForTheLolz]

People who get offended or are shocked at women who choose to wear short skirts/boob tubes/tops that show cleavage are just jealous that they can’t pull it off themselves.

It depends. If your boobs are hanging out then your legs should be covered and if your arse is hanging out then your boobs should be convered. I just think it looks really gross when it all hangs out. I don't want to see your nipples or your bush

 

[Casperoo]

I don't mind if people are vegan. As I have tried it out Myself. But why do vegans have to keep telling people that they are vegan. It's like "hey how are you today" and they reply"hey I'm vegan"

Unpopular Opinion - There’s nothing “magic” about Christmas anymore. Nothing to do with wokeness or snowflakes. Just that society and technology are changing. Christmas is overly-commercialised and just a “money making holiday”.

Every holiday has become a money making scam. It's up to family's to make it special, bring it away from the commercial side of things, celebrate it their own ways. It's personally my favourite day of the year. I love being surrounded by my family, giving gifts that I think my nearest and dearest will love (we always set spending limits), playing games, eating and drinking. Agree the focus should be taking away from the commercial side!

Edit to add every holiday could be cancelled due to its crazy commercial element. Halloween - who has the best costume, who gets the most sweets. Summer holidays - who goes away for the longest, to the best destination. Easter - who gets the most Easter eggs. Even Valentines has become something u have to share with your kids?

Said this before but Weddings are more of a display for the guests than for the actual couple themselves. However a majority of wedding guests couldn’t give a rats arse about anything other than the sausage rolls. Weddings are a waste of money - especially when you see that couple who are scrimping and saving for a deposit on a house and they manage to pluck a 20k or more wedding out of their arse!

Ohhhhh yes I agree with this! I know someone that spent £10,000 on food alone. WTF?

I don’t want 100 people at my wedding and I certainly don’t want to pay for their food and drink all day no thank yooouuuu
