First off

 

 

Meaning you more than likely will find an opinion that offends you in this thread. So, exit out if you are easily butthurt.

 

Now, this thread is to express opinions you have that aren't exactly popular.

There will be no debates or arguing.

Post your opinion and move on.

You may post an opinion in response to another, but no full blown arguing and trying to convince someone that your opinion is 'right'

This is not a thread for debate, just for opinions.

So keep calm and carry on.

ALSO DO NOT USE OFFENSIVE LANGUAGE WHEN EXPRESSING YOUR OPINION

KNOW YOUR BOUNDARIES

 

 

As for my unpopular opinion:

 

I believe that women should be allowed to wear whatever they want, hell the should be able to shirtless if guys can too, and not be called sluts. They should be able to sleep with who they want, WHEN they want. They aren't hurting you or anyone else so why make them feel bad and call them sluts.

It's not your life and it isn't your business. No need to make someone feel horrid.

That wasn't anger, Shrek was filling him with his love

 

Because he was angry. Here's what the story didn't tell you: Ever since Fiona gave birth to triplets her underparts are just one big cave. This angers Shrek, he can n longer find satisfaction and thus he found the little boy and invaded his "swamp". Shrek is love. Shrek is life.

Edit:

 

As long as I'm here, two opinions:

 

I hate it when I explain why I don't like a story and someone goes "That's the point." I'd say "I hate that film because it's so boring!" Then x person goes "That's the point. The director made it boring to capture the monotony of the working day." I don't care! It's boring and I don't need a film to be boring, and if the director made it boring on purpose then that just makes it even worse! It's not art, it's pretentious and a borefest.

 

And something a bit more controversial:

 

I think age of consent laws are for the most part silly. Yeah and adult shouldn't bang prepubescent children and those that do should be punished severely that I completely agree with. But if two consenting 14 year olds want to have sex then let them have sex.

Art has to be exciting to be considered art?

Art has to be exciting to be considered art?

 

It needs to evoke something in the audience, something that resonates, be it strong feelings of anger or that of joy, sadness, bliss or anything in-between. It can sometimes be just something that makes you lean back and think.

 

It is not sabotaging your own work and making it boring. Boredom is a total lack of interest in yourself, your surroundings or anything that's currently happening. When you reach that point you're not even living you're just "being". You might as well be this couch I'm sitting on. If I'm at that state due to some shoddy piece of work then no, it's not art.

I love learning languages! I think it's so interesting and although it's hard and I'm not great at it, it's a lot of fun.

ever since i started spanish the only sentence im willing to make is 

"Buenos dias motherf*cker"

I think ill do well in mexico

I hate driving so much, in njust want my license so i dont have to  rely on my parents for rides but honestly i hate it so much. i'd rather ride horses everywhere!

I hate driving too. I get really nervous whenever I have to drive... I have a bad feeling that's never going to go away.

It goes away I would think. I imagine most people feel like that.

 it just feels very natural after you get used to being able to avoid murdering pedestrians.

That could have been the whole point.

 

What are you referencing specifically?

When Creepypasta fans cross the line from " Hey, wanna yaoi rp Slendy and Jeff, lol?" to burning down a house in Slenderman's name, that's when we need that site closed down permanently.

I 95 percent guarantee it'll go away eventually. Driving absolutely sucks when you're first starting out because you're not used to it so every last thing will freak you out. When you get more comfortable with it, driving will rock because you get to go places. For me, it's actually fun to physically drive the car. (Dealing with heavy traffic, on the other hand...)

I don't think an entire site needs to be closed down due to the stupidity of the few.

I'm aware of those incidents, but I'm saying look at all the Slenderman fans who haven't burned down houses or murdered people in the name of their Lord Creepypasta. It's arbitrary to shut the entire thing down just because a few stupid kids are giving it a bad name. The logic can be applied to anything--someone tried to bury his friend in sand because he saw a Naruto character did it? Clearly the entire anime must be stopped.

This mostly takes place in Summer, but I get so annoyed when someone decides to turn off the A/C and fans because it is raining since rain = cold or slight breeze = permanent cold. No, rain doesn't equal cold, it can be hot and still rain. If it was as cold as people say, it wouldn't be rain, it will be snow or hail.

I really wish the US had a cool high speed train system like in France or Japan just because driving sucks so much, but what can you do? lolIt'll get better, though. In fact you'll probably just get more mad at the mass of idiots there are on the road rather than being scared of re-enacting a live version of Grand Theft Auto.

It's just my opinion. There's been 4 murders based ONLY on Slenderman this month. 

When does someone finally say it's gotten out of hand, after someone blows up a school? 

It's fricking 12 year olds!

If these stories and things off this site are affecting kids this way, maybe age restriction to 18 and up only or utter deletion should be considered.

I see where you're coming from and I agree something is going on, but if 12 year olds are doing crap like that, the only thing that tells me is that parents need to do a better job monitoring what the hell their kids are doing online. Restricting/shutting down the wiki may or may not help, but it doesn't address the core issue: namely, people especially kids will find anything, anything, to base their stupidity off of. Kids stupid enough to try shit like that will probably just cling to something else, be it a book or a game or a meme. In this case, it just happens to be a well-known Creepypasta.

 

I'm not saying no action should be taken. I just think what you're suggesting is only addressing a symptom of a bigger disease.

My point exactly, i'm just saying it seems to be leaning towards Slenderman an incredible lot as of late.

It's definitely suspicious. I'm not sure what action should be taken, except parents keeping a closer eye on their kids, but if any action is to be taken, it doesn't seem like shutting down the entire wiki would do much to help. Slenderman is hugely popular and you can't very well shut down a meme. Even if the entire wiki is gone, there will always be posts on Facebook or Twitter or what have you, internet forums, Youtube videos (which spread Slenderman in the first place) and the like. It's also totally unfair to the amount of fans who don't take their fandom to that level. I mean, I like my scary stuff and I don't want a good source of it shut down because a few kids have used it for violence. They make up, like, 0.000001% of the entire internet fandom.

Good points. 

I guess I don't really have anything to add except its called Parental Lock, people!

A bit over a year ago, I payed attention to some sites that were flooded with roleplayers, people confused about potentially seeing paranormal happenings, and potential attention w****s.  And oddly enough the talk about Slenderman was basically bigger than all other sections combined. There were most posts and threads relating to Slenderman than vampires, unicorns, werewolves, fairies(faeries), ghosts, dragons, and more all combined into one....

The I don't think the Slenderman is real or anything like that, though even if he isn't real he does have some power over people's imaginations.The more something resonates with people, the more it effects them. So if Slenderman is resonating with so many people, then yes you will have people who obsess and look up as many stories about him as possible (which probably many are put on CP). And some percentage of those will take a liking to a specific story or mythos for Slenderman, and then a small percentage of that percentage might become Slenderman worshipers. And probably a percentage of them think slenderman demands them to get blood for him.So in other words, don't degrade people obsess over Justin Bieber, boy bands, and movie stars, since it usually ends up with less murder.

I feel really bad for watching Slender Project now.... 

That could have been the whole point.

 

What are you referencing specifically?

 

Well to pick one example - Days. I found it extremely boring and repetitive. Someone told me Nomura made it that way to capture the tediousness of a real job. If that's true then that was an incredibly stupid decision no matter how you look at it.

I feel really bad for watching Slender Project now.... 

I know I really laid it down on the Slenderman, but if you did my percentage thing for a human celebrity. Chances are you would find a very small percentage of people that are willing to kidnap the human celebrity, and possibly a small percentage that would kill those who they think wronged the celebrity.

 

It is just a matter of obsession. And my little bit at the end of promoting basically celebrities instead of slenderman, was because I assume most of the extreme cases aren't put in situations where they are drawn to do horrible crimes. Though remember I am not doing scientific studies on this matters, just pulling the stuff from memory and the internet. Both of which could be faulty.In my opinion the talk I did CAN be good for debate, exploration, or forming ideas. But no one can no if it is true. And basically all talks that just pull stuff from memory and cases on the internet should be scrutinized or at least have flaws pointed out. Because if they are just forming ideas based on specific events, they can easily be mislead with their train of thoughts.

I hate when people get excited when a problem of theirs gets solved by simple logic.

 

Seriously just use your brain. God gave you a brain for a reason. Sometimes the solution is so frigging simple.

 

Peace!

Sometimes the simple solutions are the last things people think of because they overthink the problem.

I hope that isnt true....I'd rather it be that they accidently made it boring.
