I searched for unpopular opinions off of Reddit that I think truly are unpopular.

10 Unpopular Opinions from Reddit That Make Me Uncomfortable

In This Article:

Recently, Reddit's subreddit "unpopularopinion" has been filled with general opinions. I set out to find the ones that make me really go, "gross."

Someone out there enjoys wet socks?

Getting your socks wet is just awful. No further explanation.

Cereal with water instead of milk

I gagged a bit just by reading this, but at least you put the cereal first. The user also put a video of cereal with water after being requesting one by another user in disbelief.

Enjoying the restaurant staff singing Happy Birthday to them

You see, extrovert or introvert, people typically feel awkward when a random group of staff sings Happy Birthday for a whole restaurant to hear. Sure, I'm getting a little dessert to celebrate my birthday, but how am I supposed to act in this situation? But since it makes you happy, good for you and enjoy! It's still an unpopular opinion, though.

One-ply over two-ply

One-ply toilet paper tears easily. Two one-ply sheets does not have the same feeling as a two-ply sheet.

No water to brush your teeth

I put aside the "water before and/or after toothpaste" debate and assert that not putting water at all is the worst.

Body hair on everyone (including male) is gross

If hair disgusts you, I assume you also shave your head and eyebrows then (which is totally okay if someone chooses to shave those out of personal preference.) I think that the most unpopular part about this is that the user thinks that male body hair is also disgusting. Male body hair is typically seen as normal and manly. Despite the growing acceptance, female body hair is still widely seen as unacceptable.

Also, body hair is not the same as your body's waste. We don't look at someone going to the bathroom, but we also don't shame them for having to do what your body has to do. Hair naturally grows and the amount differs from person to person.

The egg shells can stay

While I am not completely disgusted or mad at this, most people try to get the little eggshell bits out of there. It's not right. Even after boiling an egg, we take off the eggshell.

Pour your milk into a cup of ice

This just brought an unpleasant taste. I have never had milk with ice, but I can already feel it being watery. Sure, you can drink it fast to prevent the ice from melting, but then it's not enjoyable to rush it.

Nightmares are better than good dreams

Maybe I'm just a big baby but nightmares scare me too much. They don't give me a good rush. They just leave me with scary thoughts in a dark room.

Bullying people with mental illness is okay

Basically, it says that instead of trying to help people, we should bully them out of their mental illness. While there are people who see mental illnesses as weakness (still quite a popular opinion), they don't blatantly agree that bullying is okay. With increasing awareness, bullying is frowned upon, mental illness or not.

Bonus: As if wet socks wasn't bad enough, we have wet sleeves being pleasant

Wet socks and wet sleeves are too similar, so this is a bonus because I just had to share it.

I truly cannot understand how some people are fine with wet fabric being stuck to their skin.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
