Unpopular Opinions.

Heres a real unpopular opinion - I think smoking is pretty cool

I don't think it holds the glamour it once did now that the effects are widely known. I would agree that the sensation of smoking is one of the most pleasurable experiences out there, once you've become addicted. Marlboro Reds taste like sex.

Mindless lemmings supporting football teams from cities in England they've never even been in. Idiots

Herd mentality very strong.
Amazes me how people can get so excited about a guy putting a ball in the net so much so that they get thick when they lose.
Their team winning doesn't benefit them in any way!
On Monday no one gives a rats ass

Im a man and i HATE football with a passion, could think of nothing worse than sitting in a pub watching a football match with all the hollering and banter. Dont see the sense in it, dont find it interesting and endless chat of the subject bores me to tears.

And to top that off most of them would lick the **** off their favourite players boots after a match.

I like going to the pub for big matches. I wouldn't be a die hard supporter of anything but once in a while it can be good craic.
More than anything, I like the big crowd so you can have a laugh and a few pints.

Well fair play to you, each to their own but its the last thing I would do, cant stand the crowds, dont enjoy football at all and also, drunk talk makes me cringe, prefer a bit of intelligent conversation

I don't care about that, it's the die hard fans I don't like.

I know one lad who is mad after Man U. He'd be biting his nails all the way through, cursing and damning the ref and their fuck ups. And god forbid if they lose because there's no talking to him and he'd be off in huff and a foul mood.

All the better for ripping the piss out of him for it I suppose!

i hate the die hard crap also.
I follow the soccer, i support man u and ive been to look at games at old trafford. i occasionally go have a few drinks while watching the match and i like to see them win but if they dont its not the end of the world. i dont care that much.
I never understand why people get so into it, but each to their own, people have different pleasures.

I was going out with a guy years back who was a die hard man u fan. We were away for a weekend and got talking to a couple. We were having a good night until your man let it out that he was a man city supporter. Ex lost the plot because of it. Big eejit... finished soon after that... school yard carry on.

yea thats pretty rediculous. i have a friend thats big into liverpool, if man utd beat them he almost gets angry with me like its my fault. I think it annoys him more that i dont really care that much like if liverpool won he cant really rub it in cos i dont care that much, its just a game.

I have one or two friends like that. Really stupid people in fairness.

Heres one: I hate the way hurlers in this country are adored and treated like celebrities. This culture has turned amateur sports people into egomaniacs. I know a few of the hurlers from my county and a few of them are nice but by God some of them think the world revolves around them and that they are entitled to great jobs, thousands for personal appearances etc. In a few years nobody will have heard of them and they will be just oridinary joe soaps but in Ireland we give these fellas fancy jobs, slaps on the back, free drinks etc is at any wonder that thay think they are huge stars. I mean, I cant even name any of the other Dublin football players besides the Brogans (2 lads who are very fond of the attention they get).

Yes. Why don't they both just go off and marry Nadia Forde. You have one of them nominated for an all star as well this year - something which is unpopular but popular at the same time.

Here's an unpopular opinion..........U2 are ****e. The way people react to that is comical. It's as if you're not allowed to say it.

Damien Dempsey cannot sing. It's just a thick Dublin accent and nothing else.
