    I agree! cloudly days are far more interesting than clear blue skies- of course, warm sunny days are great mood boosters after a long dreary winter

    Winter is an incredibly warm season if you have the right clothes

    Warm weather is bad for mental health.

    I find the term queer uncomfortable/offensive and don’t like to use it in relation to myself and don’t think it should be used as a majority for lgbtq people unless the person knows they are comfortable with it.

    Interesting! I also dislike this word. For me, I don't think it makes straight people any more accepting... I try to show them I am just like any other person and yet, on the internet... some people only want to be seen as different. I just don't know.

    I will say. It seems to be a useful word. But around older people... not at ALL. My parents would mock me if I used that word to describe myself so I just don't understand how other people won't acknowledge...

    True, almost no one that I have met who is near my age or older sees that word as anything but an epithet. The people who I have met who "reclaim" it are under 30. I think that people should be able to use whatever label to describe themselves but I will not use that one for myself.

    Spear the queer!

    I agree. People always yell at me saying anyone can say anything... but I don't like when it's applied to me because I have been different all my life... I don't want to be seen as queer. I don't know...

    Office jobs and Mon-Fri/9-5 jobs seem to be getting a lot of hate lately. No shame in making a buck at a desk and having nights/weeks off

    After encountering all the terrible drivers out for holiday travel, I want the country back on lock down again. As a professional driver it was so much nicer when people were forced to stay home.

    I hate airplanes. I feel sitting in a metal tube with a bunch of strangers breathing their used up air just makes my skin crawl.

    My dads the same way. I don’t mind it, since I am a cuddly person. Also, I love your avatar.

    Haha! I'm cuddly but that's a little too close for comfort!

    Thanks!

    That From Russia With Love is a better film than Goldfinger - at least that's all I can come up with right now (as I get ready to head to bed), but I'm sure I have hundreds or thousands of "unpopular opinions" or, at least, haven't found enough others to share them with
    :blush:

    When in a one on one conversation and someone says, "I'm not interested in relationships right now," it's usually a nice way for someone to tell you they're not interested in a relationship with you! Same goes if the situation is reversed.

    I don’t like minions. I don’t get the fascination with weird yellow creatures. My friends went to see the minions movie and I found a different movie on at the same time to go see. I also hate Spongebob Squarepants. I hated it as a kid and now as an adult it’s worse.

    I agree about Spongebob.

    I think nearly all children’s cartoons are worse as an adult, though Bluey is not bad. :grin:
