"sushi is raw fish!"
This opinion is pretty much dying now but I've always found it annoying. Especially when you consider that oysters are eaten raw. This opinion for not eating sushi confused me as a kid. It's the stupidest thing ever.

Cats are so aloof and don’t care about attention and dogs are so loyal etc.
Don’t get me wrong I’ve always been more of a dog person, but I’ve had two cats for about 8 years now (It was an attempt to stop my wife brooding for a while by giving her something to dote on.......I have two daughters now so it went as well as you’d expect lol) and they are always coming up to me to be stroked, to the point where they will nudge me quite hard to point out they want some attention now dammit, they lie right beside my daughters when they go to sleep looking for cuddles, they love to turn over for a tummy rub (So long as you are sensible and do it gently. You try to do a fast one they’ll sink their claws in without a moments hesitation ha)
Even my sisters cat whenever I go visit comes over to be played with so yeah whenever I see a joke or comment saying this about cats I think maybe your cat just doesn’t like you lol
Couple of movie ones
Indians Jones and The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is either stupid (Fridge scene or Aliens plot) yet Kingdom of Doom gets a free pass despite Temple of Doom having Indy survive jumping out of a plane in an inflatable raft, hitting solid group and surviving just fine or has a scene where a man has his heart ripped out and survives (Well long enough to be burned alive). It boggles my mind that people hammer on Crystal Skull yet seem to give Temple a free pass
Now if you want to focus on other issues like how it’s boring then be my guest ha. Just don’t say it isn’t Indy because doesn’t seem that much different to the originals to me
Also that Batman & Robin is the worst of the Burton/Schumacher series. Don’t get me wrong it’s a terrible film but it’s entertainingly terrible unlike Batman Forever which is just terrible and boring

The Disney Star Wars Movies suck.
I admit I'm not exactly a fan either, but the amount of vitriol people have for these movies is just downright unhealthy.

I admit I'm not exactly a fan either, but the amount of vitriol people have for these movies is just downright unhealthy. and the ire is usually directed at the wrong people. Be angry at Disney that they decided to try and make a trilogy of movies in literally the dumbest way possible. it's not Abrams or Rian's fault that Disney didn't have an overall story worked out before production began.

"Friends was never funny, I have no idea how it lasted so long and nobody watched it!" (You can replace 'Friends' with 'Big Bang Theory' and it applies as well) It was on for a decade for a reason. Making blanket statements that "nobody watched the show" is just kinda dumb I’ve never heard a human being say “nobody watched Friends”. Everyone watched that trash pile of a TV show. Now why anyone watched it or how they found it funny, that I ask all the time.

Now why anyone watched it or how they found it funny, that I ask all the time. I can answer one of those questions: It was always on TV and there usually nothing else to watch. As for why people think it's funny? Only God knows.

Umm nah i'm talking specifically the talk of trying to present something as facts like saying something sucks because you don't like it as seen with the Marvel example earlier

Umm nah i'm talking specifically the talk of trying to present something as facts like saying something sucks because you don't like it as seen with the Marvel example earlier It can be said when it comes to popular opinions on certain forms of media. Hell, I have received my share of harassment for stating that I enjoyed the 2016 Ghostbusters and the 2019 Charlie's Angels.

This thread is turning into another "unpopular opinions" thread and I don't like it.

Umm nah i'm talking specifically the talk of trying to present something as facts like saying something sucks because you don't like it as seen with the Marvel example earlier I agree. On the Marvel thing, I don't watch those movies. I'm just not a fan personally. But I'm fooling no one if I try saying they suck. Those movies are absolutely beloved, and I've had many friends over the years who obsess over the Marvel films. They're popular and bring people joy, so I don't see how they can objectively suck. Anyway, my contribution to the thread is when people talk about how much better things were without advanced technology and smartphones. They act like they are better because they didn't "need" cell phones when they grew up, knowing damn well that if they were widely available back then they would have been likely using them. I don’t even really have a side in this "argument." Technology and social media has brought on bad toxic stuff, but it's also caused lots of good things to happen. I'm just at the point where I'm tired of hearing and reading about it. It's something we live with now whether we like it or not. If you detest smartphones, don't own one. But if people enjoy it, let them enjoy it.

I'm just listing opinions I'm sick of hearing. I'm not condemning or condoning each one.

'They must've been on drugs to come up with that stuff!'
I think you're limiting how strong the human imagination can be.

"They're raping my childhood!"
Just because they made a crappy version of that thing you loved doesn't mean the originals don't exist anymore.
It's like when Stephen King was once asked about what Hollywood did to his books, and he answered they didn't do anything, his books are right there on his shelf.
"Who asked for this?"
Well, who asked for--ANYTHING, really.
Besides, there's always some people who'll come up and say "I did," so that answers that.

This opinion for not eating sushi confused me as a kid. It's the stupidest thing ever. I've got a response to people who say this (and I still meet people who say it)... "No, sashimi is raw fish. Sushi is the preparation, the whole 'rolled in rice' part of it. You can have raw fish, cooked fish, chicken, beef, or just veggies in sushi rolls." If they balk at that, I ask them what is pizza, just dough & sauce & pepperoni & cheese, or are there 'other' pizzas? That kind of helps them wrap their heads around it.
