Wow, this thread got re-born and people still suck at it.

A lot of the opinions expressed in this thread aren't "unpopular" in the least.

Also if anybody wondered why I thougth Degen was a stupid [censored], scroll up.

I love this movie:

[Zefa]

Pizza is overrated
Jessica Alba is hot but waaaay overrated
Chocolate is disgusting in larger amounts

And I'm so gonna get flamed for this one....
Disease, Weather Catastrophes, Wars are underrated b/c overpopulation's gonna eventually [censored] us in the ass.

[mrkilla]

Seinfeld is not very funny

[entertainme]

People are not basically good.

Most people want to appear good to others, which is an entirely different thing.

The Beatles are the most overrated rock band of all time.

I think this is true and I also think that they are the best band ever. You have to be so good to be overrated and the best, the only other examples I can think of are Einstein and Jordan.

-- Reality shows suck and have nothing at all to do with reality.
-- Most people's speech has very little to do with what they believe
-- Morality is generally post-hoc; that is, we tend to do whatever we want to or can get away with very often if not predominately, and then work backwards to find some justification for it, no matter how lame or unlikely. "Morality" is by and large a cover story for doing what we want.
-- Steve Irwin was no hero and the sudden adulation of him is a sad thing.
-- We tend to choose the wrong heroes and role models
-- Someone's "worth" is not strictly a financial matter
-- Having more money doesn't make you more moral
-- Sports are not important and may even do more harm than good.
-- Men not only can be friends with women, but should be, and it will not emasculate them or turn them permanently into friends. Vice-versa for women.
-- Life is not all a matter of attitude. The world around someone really DOES count, and for a lot.
-- You can like both cats and dogs, and pretty much equally.
-- Men can be just as important parents as women.
-- Nobody's a hero, grows up, or suddenly gets wisdom just by having a baby.
-- No, women CANNOT have it all; they must make choices
-- There is no glass ceiling
-- The number of minority or female CEO's of major companies says next to nothing about whether those jobs are distributed fairly
-- Mysteriousness in a woman is not at all interesting
-- The West's culture is not always superior.
-- You can be a vegetarian and still be perfectly healthy.
-- The media in the U.S. is by and large just as slanted and useless as it is in other developed countries
-- There is no such thing as "the liberal media" and the term itself denotes a willful and obvious misunderstanding and disingenuous screwiness, on the one hand, or being retarded on the other
-- Racism does NOT mean race plus power, and nobody should grant anyone the right to define such terms without objection
-- The long term usually matters much more than the short term
-- Science is not a "faith" or "belief system" that is therefore no different than an actual faith or belief system
-- Unless we're talking about a real beating, spanking has very little negative long-term effect on children; it's mental cruelty in all its variations that can easily scar a kid for life
-- You don't have to be a Republican or a gun nut to believe the right to bear arms is an important one
-- You don't have to be a maniac, paranoid, or hick to think shooting pistols and rifles is pretty darn fun
-- Political issues should be decided on an individual basis without reference to a party line
-- The middle class, according to its traditional popular conception in America, is rapidly vanishing
-- One of the main goals of the Republican party is to rack up enough debt that social programs become impossible
-- The Democratic party is more interested in marshaling support among minorities and the poor than with doing anything for them
-- Ralph Nader is actually good for the future of the Democratic party
