Recently a lot of posts on Twitter have revolved around people's unpopular opinions. There's a definite wide range of topics, some of them dealing with current politics, and some of them referring to what type of cheese is best, but they all seem to grab everyone's attention. Some of my unpopular opinions may prove to actually be more popular than I thought, but nonetheless, here are 11 things I believe that the majority of people don't agree with.
1. Pineapple belongs on pizzaĀ
First I just wanna say, don't knock it 'till you try it. Pineapple on pizza is actually amazing, and I don't understand why it gets so much hate. If you get some delicious pizza and add a little sweet fruit on to it, I don't see how it can get any better than that. It sounds gross, but trust me when I say it's outstanding.
2. Any drink besides water is grossĀ
Putting all of the sips I've had of soda together in my life, it would probably add up to about one cup. Carbonation is seriously disgusting. I've only liked drinking water and the occasional chocolate milk since I was born, and I honestly can't be convinced that anything besides those two things is good. Even plain milk is something I can't bring myself to like.
3. Bacon isn't goodĀ
I know this one is probably shocking, and it has nothing to do with the fact that bacon comes from cute pigs. I know a lot of people are obsessed with it, especially for breakfast, but I can't bring myself to like it. Sometimes I eat bacon to see if maybe my opinion has changed, but I haven't changed my mind as of yet.
4. The electoral college is a good thingĀ
This is an opinion of mine that I will always be open to new information on, but with what I currently know about the electoral college, I believe it's a good thing. In my senior year government class, my teacher showed the class a picture of the areas of America that could have gotten Clinton to win by the popular vote, and it only highlighted a few major cities. The electoral college allows people all across the country to have a voice, even though sometimes it isn't the popular opinion.
5. Superhero movies are overratedĀ
I can already hear the calls I'm going to get from my uncles and friends, but I don't think superhero movies are really that good. I've watched a few, so my opinion isn't uneducated, but I'd much rather watch a new rom-com than the newest "Avengers" movie.
6. Six Flags isn't thrillingĀ
Ever since I went to Six Flags and got sick, my impression of the amusement park hasn't been that positive. That aside, I feel like I can spend my time doing more exciting things than getting dizzy on a rollercoaster. That's just how I feel though.
7. Tamales aren't the best Mexican foodĀ
Coming from a very Hispanic family and having tried a lot of Mexican food, I have to say tamales are not one of my favorites. A lot of people love them and I'm sure some of them are great, but enchiladas and floutas surpass them on the list of delicious Hispanic foods.
8. Sleeping with socks on is okayĀ
I don't know about you, but my feet get cold when I sleep, so obviously, I'm going to put socks on. Now, every time I wake up they're somehow off my feet, but just remember it's okay to sleep with them on. You're the one that's gotta be comfy.
9. Ross is the worst "Friends" characterĀ
I say this with so much love, I promise. Ross in himself isn't a bad character, but if I have to choose who the worst "Friends" character is, it would definitely be him. "Friends" wouldn't be "Friends" without him and I wouldn't want to take him away, but he isn't my favorite out of the group.
10. Ā Most country singers sound the sameĀ
Maybe this is because I don't listen to country music to know the difference between singers, but I will never be able to tell you the difference between Luke Bryan, Sam Hunt, or Blake Shelton. They all sound the same to me because country is country. They all kind of look the same, too, but that is beside the point.
11. "Moana" and "Coco" are better than "Frozen"
I feel like most adults agree with this since "Frozen" was burned into our brains as every child watched it endlessly for an entire year. Once again, "Frozen" isn't a horrible movie, but "Moana" and "Coco" are extremely beautiful films that I feel deserve more credit than they ever received. They're cute and have storylines that fall outside of social norms, and that's pretty awesome if you ask me.
Everyone has some unpopular opinions, some being much more contentious than others, but these ones are fairly harmless. At the end of the day we love what we love, so if your friend likes to drink milk and eat bacon for breakfast, don't bash them too much for it.
