    This is more like a "Possibly popular unpopular opinions" thread. Many shits are given, people are confusing not giving a shit with having a different opinion on things, with a lot feeling very strongly about their view. I like it.

    Fashion - the people who make the (expensive) clothes are the ones who dictate what's in fashion...
    Gender identity - be what you want, keep it to yourself and don't expect me to know what you are just by looking at you.
    - Pronouns - a follow up to the above, don't care and again don't expect me to know just by looking/reading.
    Rugby - just ugh.
    Politics - none of them are in it for you, they're all in it for the money and early retirement.
    Soccer - possibly the most popular interest of adults, but screaming at millionaires kicking a ball of inflated air around a pitch is somehow more mature than an interest in gaming...
    Reality TV - just no.
    The weather - unless it's hot, then I care because I hate it.
    BLM - it's gone from a legit movement to in your face necessity that overlooks racism carried out by black people. It's having the opposite effect now imo.

    Thought I had more, but it's nearly bed time so brain is shutting down.

    I agree. We put these people up on a pedestal and are somehow interested in what is going on in their lives. I know some people use the escapism as a model but personally I watch films or listen to music to get away from it for a while. I have enough things going on in my life without wanting to know what Vogue Williams thinks about anything.

    They are all just passive pastimes. Game of Thrones for me, Love island Australia for my wife. Watching soccer is no better or worse than tabletop D&D for example.

    First they came for the socialists...

    Philistines all of ye.

    You need to watch the movie My beautiful Laundrette with our own Daniel Day Lewis.

    The only things I remember about that film (when I saw it in the late 80s) was that Daniel Day Lewis was gay, and I think an Indian girl flashing her lovely boobs. :D

    Its a pity more people arent like you! Its now 7 times since the statue was put up there that its been vandalised. I cant figure out if its just some genuinely bored and listless teens with literally nothing else to do but destroy a statue they have been told not to...or is there some genuine bad feeling against the man in the area over something real or imagined.

    Either way, its gone beyond a joke and they need to move it into a museum or something for its own safety.

    Then nobody will visit the museum and they wont be able to sustain it's viability,so it will have to close.....

    Yes. I couldn't give a feck about what people think of me. Recently I was accused of being 'repulsed by fat people'. I know I'm not, I know the accuser is speaking from their own issues so them thinking that about me doesn't affect me in the least.

    Also agree with your previous 3.

    Flowers...

    I think the fake one's look pretty much just as good, they require zero effort to maintain and never die!

    I also don't give a f*ck about grass either. (unless it's on a footie pitch :D) Fake grass actually looks better, and again zero maintenance.

    Put that in your pipe and schmoke it, all you silly horticulturists! :P
