Your unpopular opinions

66Mustang

Another thread idea I had.

What opinions do you hold that are unpopular or that go against the vast majority?

They can be about anything from food to TV programs to politics to current issues but please keep it civil and respect everyone’s views.

I think Doctor Who is absolute garbage. 

66Mustang

Interesting one @Adrian_Scope!

I don’t see the point in jewellery apart from a watch.

I think Marmite is okay. I don’t love it or hate it. 

66Mustang

Following on from the marmite...

I have no strong opinion of Donald Trump. I can take him or leave him. It seems most people either adore him or detest him!

Hi @Adrian_Scope,

 I agree with you about Doctor Who as I have never liked it?

janer1967

I agree with doctor who and tbh anything sci fi its all fantasy and I prefer reality 

I dont agree with how much money footballers and celebrities are paid there needs to be a better balance of earnings just my thoughts there are lots other people who contribute more to society and work harder but paid a lot less and even some are struggling financially 

66Mustang

@janer1967 that’s a good one

With footballers and celebrities it’s all supply and demand, the public choose to give them money, but I’ve thought what you say about middle manager types

As an example if a middle manager in the NHS is paid £50,000 and a nurse is paid £25,000, is the middle manager really worth 2 nurses? Are they really doing a job that’s worth twice as much as a nurse? Would the money be better spent on 2 nurses who could be saving lives?

@66Mustang I agree to a certain extent but the doctors have the knowledge to diagnose some do surgery and prescribe treatments.  Nurses however provide the day to day care on instruction from the doctors and patient needs . Nurses are certainly worth a higher level of pay than currently earning when their earnings are on par or lower than less skilled or less valuable to the community 

Just remember we are just expressing our own opinions

I think that the Yeren, Yeti, Yowie, Skunk Ape, Woodwose, Rougarou and Sasquatch are from the genus, that of Gigantopithecus.

I don't like animals...  Can't stand Attenborough or farming programmes.  No interest in any sort of pet.  Don't understand the 'cute' aspect that other people seem to see.

I don’t like ‘the voice’ everyone seems to think a loud shouty voice is great. I don’t. 

@Richard_Scope I think you may be right.

66Mustang

Great ones everyone thanks for sharing

66Mustang

@janer1967 I’m not talking about doctors, I agree doctors do a good job, I’m talking about middle managers who sit in an office, I’d maybe replace some of them with front line staff

@OverlyAnxious that’s a good one, I’m not massively into animals myself. I didn’t used to mind Attenborough but I find him a bit preachy now!

Controversial one I like it, that’s what this thread is about

I hate the "celeb" culture we seem to live amongst
Also hate the "compensation" culture we have imported from across the Atlantic.

66Mustang

Hard to disagree @woodbine thanks for posting

I think that question was answered to my satisfaction, at least, in Psych season 7 episode 3.

Richard_Scope

@encaser, I haven't ever heard of that programme. I'll take a look.
