We never should have domesticated dogs, and should phase out using them as modern pets.

The thread wanted unpopular, and I'm here to provide! Just for oh so many reasons wish it were less of a "doggy dog" world out there deliberately misquoting the idiom for the joke

 

[motyxia]

Skipping further support or nuance:

We never should have domesticated dogs, and should phase out using them as modern pets. Working dogs (for example, accessibility guidedogs, some hunting dogs and sled dogs, etc) are reasonable to keep for now, but just as a lesser evil to inaccessibility or food scarcity in rural and remote Indigenous communities, etc

I agree with this (except dogs exploited for necessary labour being a "lesser evil," I see in rare cases where a human genuinely can't survive without forcing another animal into labour as understandable so I won't blame them but it's not a "lesser evil," like how cannibalism in a survival situation isn't a "lesser evil" than starving to death but still understandable so I wouldn't blame). Adding on a related but even more unpopular opinion, humans shouldn't have domesticated any other animals & the pet industry is immoral. Adopt/rescue the already-living domesticated animals that need humans to live, but never breed more into existence. Let them go extinct peacefully. I think forcing any sentient being into the world is wrong, especially if we breed them to be dependent on us.

I'd like to experience a big earthquake, though in a place where there wouldn't be anything that could break.

 

[irememberinnocence]

That's an interesting one. I've experienced two big earthquakes and I wish I hadn't. But for curiosity sake you might be able to visit an earthquake simulation. That's a way you can experience it without things breaking. It's not quite the same as a real earthquake but gives some impression.

Australia almost never gets earthquakes so I can see how it would be a novelty. Although that wasn't a serious earthquake. Serious earthquakes are not fun.

New Unpopular Opinion (somehow this post merged with my previous post)

I absolutely detest the reaction button on social media platforms. It makes people lazy in their interactions. I liked the original forums where you either just lurked or actually said something. Not to be rude but when people react to my posts it means absolutely nothing to me, it's more an annoyance than anything. I appreciate true comments as long as they're not trolls. So that's my attitude. The only thing good is the upvote on Reddit as it aggregates posts, every other type of react button is just useless and detracts from the internet experience.

People who don't know how to suck cock yet need to stop saying they love sucking cock. There's a big difference between what you think you can do while you're fantasizing about cock sucking & real life. Licking the cock is not sucking it, just putting the cockhead in your mouth & jerking the shaft isn't sucking either; you have to actually suck the cock in order to achieve cock sucking. There's no shame in admitting you don't know how to suck cock yet. If I picked you, that means I'm attracted to you. Just unzip your pants & I'll suck your cock instead.

I can see what you mean but I disagree (except for serious angry reactions, I think those can be easily misused). I think they're really useful & kind of an accessibility feature. Not everyone can talk to others but they want others to know that their post was read and/or somebody cares. I can't say anything most of the time, it's not because I'm lazy it's because of my conditions. & sometimes what someone writes I care about, I don't want them to feel ignored so being able to give them a reaction that lets them know someone read their post is useful. I also like that it makes it less likely for someone to reply something to me, I feel pressured to respond but can't respond after hours of trying which can cause meltdown. I mainly wanted to share this because I've reacted to some of your posts & this is the reason why. I'll stop reacting to your posts out of respect, but I want you to know that you're not being ignored.

I don't like naps... it feels like a huge waste of time and I wake up feeling groggy and confused. It just ruins the whole day, but of course sometimes you simply need one.

I always experienced this too. Turns out, the trick is to only nap for like 15 minutes. Basically you have to wake up before you enter a deeper phase of sleep, and so long as you do that, you'll be quite refreshed.

[Formal complaint ahead]

It has come to my attention that many contributions to this thread are not opinions at all.
An example: "Rain is bad" is an opinion, whereas "I don't like rain" is not. The former is inconclusive, as befits a proper opinion, while the latter is a factual statement.

Men (fathers usually) insist their child hits the ball instead of throwing. What do you expect him to be, another Babe Ruth? More like an Astros designated hitter nowadays. Futher makes no sense because pitching beats batting.

What's with Raiders' loyalty? Nevermind they haven't won anything since 2002, your team doesn't care about you. First it's Oakland, then LA, then Oakland again and now Las Vegas. Your franchise changes stadiums whenever taxpayers money are aplenty, they only want you to get the season pass and if you live too far away to attend, sc**w you.

Same with any sports team really... they are just corporations that exist to get rich. Why have any rooting interest? It's like rooting for McDonald's or Pizza Hut... actually that sounds pretty good.

But is that Pizza Hut over McDonalds? I'd be uncomfortable with something so over-cooked at a place reeking of stale cooking oil and sweaty $4 Walmart shirts. In that regard, subs aren't any bigger either. Huge picture, tiny sandwich.

At least I expect Pizza Hut to have decent table areas, to be able to choose from Capricciosa, Neapolitana and Corleone, traditions... and I strongly hope they don't serve Hawaii

We should get over ourselves and stop gendering everything, like: pink is for girls, blue is for boys. Dancing, ballet, knitting, writing, poetry is for girls. Sports, cars, video games is for boys. You get it. Not only it's just pointless, what the hell do you even accomplish by doing this? It's also harmful for those who might not feel they are actually girl/boy and might come out as trans, non binary, agender etc. later in life.
