whether people where Crocs in public or not.
Opinions? I prefer to call them facts!
The culture wars shit that ya see on social media
Pineapple on pizza.
I think people should just eat what they enjoy.
For me personally, I don’t like it. However, I do still have a strong opinion on it. I think it’s a fantastic flavor combination! It’s a nice combination of salty, sweet, and savory. If a professional chef were making a pizza, and they had never heard of one before, something like the Hawaiian pizza is what I’d expect them to make. I don’t really like pineapple though, so it’s not for me.
Sports? I think it’s a tribalistic waste of time and money, but people are allowed to like what they like.
That kinda sounds like an opinion
But not a strong opinion.
waste of time and money
strong enough
Is it? Lot of stuff is a waste of time and money if you don’t care for it. It doesn’t mean you have a strong opinion about it. Like it could just mean you’d never spend your own time and money on it, but other people can if they want to. Since every recreational thing is a waste of time and money to someone who doesn’t like it.
We’re getting into a semantic and subjective argument here but I would say ‘I don’t like sports’ or ‘I don’t care for it’ is a basic/mild (negative) opinion.
IMO ‘a waste of time and money’ has some conviction to it.
Imagine someone saying that about something you personally care for?i mean i do plenty of things that are wastes of time and moeny. What’s wrong with that? We’re hairless apes who like to do silly stuff.
yes
Precisely.
Eating Asian food using forks. Preparing meat well-done. Cutting pasta with a knife. Using cutlery when eating pizza. Basically everything that people say has a “right way” of eating. What difference does it make to you if you’re not the one eating?
Once you’ve seen kids try to eat soup with their hands, you’ll start enforcing stupid rules too. On one hand, I don’t care in the slightest about ‘etiquette’ but God help me, stop using your offhand to shovel pasta into a spoon and then dropping half of it. Sit up straight, utensil over your plate and put your utensil down when you’re not using it.
But, like, put pineapple on pizza and enjoy your steak how you want it.
Coke, Pepsi and most all cola flavored things don’t taste different enough to matter.
Except Diet Coke. Attempt to landing there.
i genuinely dont care about gender at all. I’ll fight tooth and nail for my trans brothers and sisters but in a perfect world I’d never think about it even a little
I’m the same. I have to be careful how I phrase things because it can sound transphobic if like someone asks you what you are and you just say “Well I have x genitals so just go with that I guess?” because you just don’t care. Like call me whatever you want. want me to wear a certain type of clothing because of some social convention? Sure idc. I’ll wear a dress, or a suit. Don’t care. I just don’t want to pay for them. I 100% support anyone doing anything they want with their gender. Let me know what you want to be called, and remind me if I slip up because I don’t even remember peoples names most of the time, but I’ll say what you want me to say. But for me personally? You can call me anything you want. He, Her, They, It, Dumbass, Tankie, .ml, shut the fuck up, etc It don’t bother me one bit.
This is exactly where I am as well. “I just don’t want to pay for them” is so real lol.
fr like when it comes to clothes I see anything above like 20 USD per outfit as absolute highway robbery.
People putting pineapple on their pizza.
Whatever man. Some people like opera music. Some people like golden showers. And some people like putting pineapple on their pizza. Can’t we all just get along?
Other people’s lives. I don’t get why how other people live bother people. If they like the same sex, go for it. If they like to dress up as a goat on the weekend? Ok, cool. It’s your life, do what you want with it.
I mean, yes, but I’d add the qualifier “so long as it doesn’t impact others”. If you want to dump your trash in a communal area, it’s imo a bit too easy to say that it’s a free country and who am I to tell you not to do that. Maybe this sounds too obvious to spell out (to me it would have until recently) but I recently met two persons in unrelated places who really felt that nobody should tell them what to do because they didn’t tell anyone else what to do either. As if we don’t all share resources on this planet
Yeah, I should’ve said that as well. So long as you’re not causing harm to others, do what you want, like what you like, be who you want to be.
Who or what is “the best” of something. Any genre I can think of: Sports, art, food, engineering, design, whatever. Or I guess I kind of do, if you have some wild take that I don’t understand at all, but the discussions where people are like “lebron or kobe?” or “poe or shakesspeare?” I just do not get. “What’s the best anime?” eh. There’s no best of anything, it’s all just a matter of definition.
Hockey is the best sport.
Sure
Literally any topic on which I have little to no knowledge. I can’t have an opinion on a topic I barely know exists.
Pineapple on pizza. I don’t care. I don’t order it, but will eat it and not complain if served it.
Favorite color, book, movie, etc.
I arbitrarily decided green is my favorite color just so I could answer icebreakers without looking like a personality-less weirdo. But really, I don’t care and don’t really understand having a “favorite”.
Books, movies, other medias, I understand a bit more but still don’t have any of my own. I rarely re-read or re-watch anything. And the things I do re-watch (mostly Halloween or Christmas season stuff) aren’t my favorite overall, just for the applicable season. I can’t recall the last book I re-read.
Do you customize your OS of choice in any way? If so, do you find some color palettes are even slightly more enjoyable than others? If so, dial that slight enjoyment up a few factors and that’s what having a favorite color is like.
Red and black
I like to say my favorite color is UV, because I quite enjoy playing with UV LED keychain lights and such.
I think powerscaling is stupid so any powerscaling discussion beyond “this is stupid” is not something I feel strongly about
what does it mean?
I generally agree, but I can make one exception: when there’s a clear power system it can be fun to talk about how one power would fare against another. Not so much scaling the characters themselves but pitching their powers’ themes against one another, like some advanced rock-paper-scissors thing. One Piece used to allow for things like this at one point, (before new power systems were included) like rubber > thunder > ice > rubber.
Pre timeskip one piece was so good
