You've been pre-emptively banned from the Mustard Supremacy subforum, where all the cool kids hang out.

Something comes to mind often when browsing the forum, and I suppose it could count as a "hot take."

I dislike the abundance of acronyms around here (in general, but also around here), particularly when it comes to "CTB". I am pro-choice, but I believe that suicide is an act that ought to be considered carefully, it's not something one decided to do randomly for a laugh. The acronym "CTB" obscures the significance of the act, trivialises its discussion, and honestly it's more than a bit cringy. The sea of acronyms can also make parsing discussions more difficult than it needs to be.

Additionally, I don't believe it does any favours to pro-choice/right-to-die discussions in the eyes of the general public when sites like this, which try to represent the subject in a serious, mature manner, rely on in-group initialisms, acronyms, and other needlessly obscure language.

Mustard is the absolute worst. That and horseradish.

I agree completely, it removes suspicious, dare I say scary amounts of weight from the idea and makes it subconsciously harder to consider what you're saying instead of slipping into the group nihilism, I try to never use it.

what sandwiches could you possibly be eating to justify this

Macarons are wafer-like disappointment that come in abundance of flavors of "meh". I'd literally rather eat circus peanuts, possibly the worst candy in existence.

Dragon fruit is another food that is massively overhyped. It's only tolerable in sour beers. The fruit itself is bland and watery. Talk about false advertising.

Most parents shouldn't be parents and a lot of our supposed "disciplinary methods" (yelling, corporal punishment, silent treatment, etc) are really just child abuse or at least unethical behaviours disguised as "discipline". And no, I don't give a shit if you aren't hitting your kid to the point of bruising or any of that, let alone if you feel as though you went through worse growing up and still think those disciplinary methods are fine. I don't give a fuck, it's wrong.

Pineapple on pizza sucks ass.

Mustard is actually great so long as you don't use too much of it. It especially works well when mixed with ketchup and mayo.

While I do sympathize with antinatalism and find the entire philosophy to be more logical in comparison to natalism, I do think that the antinatalist rhetoric on this site can get a bit out of hand at times. While I'm not the biggest fan of most parents out there and I do believe that you shouldn't ctb if you have children you are still looking after, there are parents that are on here either for recovery reasons or because their children are all grown-up and independent now and they wish to finally ctb.

The fact that there was someone on here who felt the need to leave this site because they felt unwelcome due to the large amounts of antinalatist rhetoric on here is concerning. While I do think that so long as people aren't saying anything discriminatory on here then they should be able to say whatever they please, I do sometimes wish that the amount of antinalatlism on this site was dialed back just a bit.

(Though I understand that this is a suicide forum, so large amounts of antinatalism is kind of par for the course)

I also think that Oshi no Ko (the anime, not the manga. I've never read the manga for it) isn't as good as people are saying it is.

Omori is a good story, but FAR from a good game. It's so fucking dragged out, too much side tagents. Too slow, and too much dialogue. I can't relax and enjoy the game or get scared if I'm constantly annoyed and mentally yelling at the game to fucking get on with the story.
For example, (spoilers for Omori btw) when you go outside to at three days left, you are sent on a quest to look for Aubrey. this part could've been massively cut by having you ask her goons as a group, instead of going on 3 side tagents before finally having you run across the giant maps to the church.
Which brings me to my second point. The maps are beautiful, but huge, it's annoying to run through them. The grabage dump area could've been WAY smaller. There's also too many long hallways, so when you get to an important long hallway it kind of loses its meaning and becomes annoying as it takes a long time to run through them. The battle system is cool, but it takes a long time to grind due to the animations.
The grinding can also be removed in my opinion.

I can understand. I'm fine with mustard, but the situation is the same with raw onions .

I also don't understand why people criticize other people's tastes, for example, if I don't like raw onions, it doesn't mean that they are bad, my taste buds just work differently.

 

[Unsure and Useless]

The fruit itself is bland and watery.

Depending on the type (color) of dragon fruit, it can actually be quite sweet! Typically, you should aim for the yellow ones rather than the pink ones.

I don't know why this is the case, but I believe it has to do with the fact that they're harvested at different stages. As a result, the yellow ones, which have more time to ripen, are sweeter than the pink ones. Plus, upon further research, the yellow ones tend to be the sweetest ones out of all the dragon fruits.

[Insert colorful text here to separate topics]

Hot Take #1: Under the logic that SUPPOSEDLY men have a "biological need" to cheat spread their genetics, women also have a biological need to get with as many partners as possible to ensure that her offspring possesses the best odds of survival.

Hot Take #2: Certain people on Twitter can't engage in a proper discussion with people with different opinions, so they resort to telling people to kill themselves; using logical fallacies, such as the straw man and ad hominem; engaging in manipulative and/or abusive behavior; and making criminal accusations towards people in order to be right.

Hot Take #3: If you're committed to "eating the rich" and getting rid of the 1%, you can't back out the moment your favorite celebrity is included.

Hot Take #4: Don't call yourself "educated" on topics when you gain information by only watching notoriously biased news.

Hot Take #5: Salami, sausages, and SPAM are gross. Probably one of the worst types of meat to exist.

1) All anime English dubs are bad.

2) Pugs can be perfectly healthy and live fulfilling and pain-free lives.

3) Pitbulls should not be pets. Alas, they already exist as pets, so here's the compromise: require special training for the owner and dog, including a weight/muscle requirement for the owner and special fencing, and muzzles for the dog. You should need a permit and be required to give reports on how it acts. Always leashed, pitbull only dog parks (which in itself is a bad idea but you can't rob the dog of enrichment, either.) No second chances if it acts up.

4) Dark Souls and its other games are mid (except Sekiro).

5) Drag is only drag (to me) when men are performing. Women doing "drag" is not drag.

6) Michael Jackson's music is just okay.

7) Major age gaps between dating adults is not a big deal unless there was grooming beforehand. People bring up power imbalances and act like that makes every age gap problematic. That's just not the case. At 18, I was only interested in 35+ guys and now, at 28, I'm interested in even older guys.

8) FunkoPops are FUGLY. They aren't figures. Highkey hate them.

9) Any religion/belief that is inherently -phobic or sexist is bad and I will never respect them. I can respect individuals of that religion/belief fine, but don't ask me to respect the religion/belief itself. Ain't happening.

10) "Feelings" don't make someone trans. Transsexualism is not a feeling, it's a condition. Not everyone claiming to be trans is valid and gatekeeping is necessary in order not to erase binary transsexuals.

Some of these made me sweat, but it's a hot take thread so

now, im with you there, i dont like raw onions either but like...

what about onion rings, or funions (funyuns?) i kinda like em lol

Agree, most ppl like it because of the song and characters, but the whole story is weird af Or maybe it's not my preference.

This is just wrong, it's not an opinion.

I stand by my hot takes.

 

[StarlightDreamer]

My hot take? People might survive their day-to-day, but you've never truly lived until you've created something.

The act of expressing yourself requires understanding yourself, your position in the world, other people, and the forces that act upon all men. In the artist's mindset, you naturally tend to fly above the tempests of normal life - the petty rumors and power struggles - and curate a world of enrichment and wonder.

You realize the world is beautiful. Most people are lovely. And some are worth keeping for a lifetime.

I hate to let this world go.

Você foi banido preventivamente do subfórum Mustard Supremacy, onde todos os garotos legais se encontram.

Muitas vezes, algo vem à mente ao navegar no fórum e suponho que possa ser considerado uma "tomada quente".

Não gosto da abundância de siglas por aqui (em geral, mas também por aqui), principalmente quando se trata de "CTB". Sou pró-escolha, mas acredito que o suicídio é um ato que deve ser pensado com cuidado, não é algo que alguém decide fazer aleatoriamente só para rir. A sigla "CTB" obscurece o significado do ato, banaliza sua discussão e, honestamente, é mais do que um pouco desagradável. O mar de siglas também pode tornar a análise das discussões mais difícil do que o necessário.

Além disso, não acredito que isso favoreça as discussões pró-escolha/direito de morrer aos olhos do público em geral quando sites como este, que tentam representar o assunto de maneira séria e madura, confiam em - inicialismos de grupo, siglas e outras linguagens desnecessariamente obscuras.

Você foi nevrálgico, preciso, exato, preciso em suas palavras. Foi difícil encontrar alguém com sua estatura intelectual. Você tem meu respeito.

Apple brand Products like Iphone's Ipad's etc are very overhyped, go outdated very fast and their battery life is very bad.

Snyder's DCEU does not deserve the amount of hate it gets. He had a story to tell and if WB would have kept their promises, it would have been something special. I think it'll be re-evaluated at some point in the future.

 

[Heavenly Pup]

Besides your biological parents, you're not entitled to the accommodation of anyone because you're suffering. You shouldn't feel entitled for others to help you do something you're incapable of doing yourself (besides your biological parents).

please don't hate me lol

Why would I hate you? This just means there's more mustard for me to use! Lol, not really. I don't hate mustard, but it's kinda meh in my opinion. I rarely ever use it. Honey mustard is better!

My hot take: Anyone who believes that eternal suffering in the afterlife is justice, is either extremely deluded, or sadistic. Religions that include this idea in their doctrine are trash.

I agree that apple sells overhyped lifestyle products but the hardware is pretty solid (not to mention the slick design). I've had my iPad mini for a good ten years and the battery is still going strong to this day. The only problem is that it doesn't support newer versions of ios -- to pressure you buying a new device, I assume --, which really sucks because many apps, such as prime video, require ios 15+ and I can't even get past 12 anymore .

stop lyin, ketchup is dope.

otherwise, this is truly a hot take.

Hey, more ketchup for you and me then! Ketchup is awesome, but yet, I rarely ever use it when I get French Fries. For some reason, I like the salty potato flavor all by itself much better lmao.

Same, but if the fries are low tier i gotta have the ketchup just to make it better.

Hell yeh, ketchup
