    While I like Parks & Recreation a lot, I think that Chris Pratt/Andy is the weakest part of the show and don't understand his popularity.

    "Shiny Happy People" by R.E.M. isn't such a bad song. While lyrically it's very sappy, it's a nice tune, and if it hadn't come out at the band's commercial and, arguably, creative peak, it wouldn't be subject to half the derision that it is.

    It's a nice song I agree, but didn't they write it as a piss take?

    Apparently not. Michael Stipe said publicly that he hated it a few times over the years, and they refused to put it on their first greatest hits album.

    Generally, I have no time or sympathy for drug addicts.

    Any person caught with an illegal firearm should be punished by having their fingers surgically removed.

    My local unpopular opinion is I hate being told to do something I don't want to do, I have no problem giving money to charity but I don't want to chuck Ice over my head on camera to prove it , I also went through this **** on the other stupid internet craze they had before .

    Was gonna say that might be down to the people translating it into English. Then I realized you were actually situated in Tokyo. :P

    I can't really imagine there are many who would care. I certainly don't.

    I would care for their poor families, when my small fella is older I would feel like I failed him somehow if he thought going around doing that stuff was a good idea. But no, as long as they don't kill anyone else, how can you really care?

    They won't learn their lesson if you are that soft. Remove their fingers by putting them in a mincing machine.

    I have zero sympathy for people bitten by sharks or crocs.
    Go swim in a pool and leave those animals alone.

    Well yeah, I didn't really want to be accused of pointless barbarism, just as long as the end result of the punishment is that these 'shooters' are unable to use their weapons anymore.

    Finding Nemo, Up and Monsters Inc are trash.

    The Incredibles is a masterpiece.

    I don't think women should accrue holidays while off on maternity leave.

    I saw Brian Cowan in my town of Clara propping up the bar in Mick's pub and cracking jokes with his mates. I think he's a good guy, one of the lads...

    He probably is.

    Wouldn't let him run a country though.

    Superhero/Marvel comics films

    I am absolutely sick to death of all these superhero films that have flooded cinemas in the last few years. Don't get me wrong I'm partial to the odd Batman or superhero film myself but the amount of them coming out lately is just ridiculous.

    I intentionally go into the cinema late to skip the trailers because at one point recently it was just trailer after trailer of these films.

    It seems every fcuking week there's a new Batman, Superman, Spider-Man, X-Men, Thor, Iron Man, Captain America, Fantastic Four, The Hulk, Wolverine, Guardians of the Galaxy et al. Marvel are the worst culprit.
    I wouldn't mind but they all have the same premise: baddie villain tries to take over the world, superhero(es) intervenes, showdown between baddie villain and superhero(es), superhero(es) kills baddie villain, end.
    Just stop for fcuk sake, it's been done to death!!

    Slanegirl, Magalufgirl the ICloud leaks
    Most of these types of stories would die out and be forgotten within days if not hours
    were it not for people dragging them up over and over again to say how offended/disgusted
    they are by how the girls were treated
