HOT TAKES: 25 OF THE MOST UNPOPULAR OPINIONS (THAT ARE 100 PERCENT RIGHT)

Jen Arbues |January 22, 2019
Hot Takes: 25 of the Most Unpopular Opinions (That Are 100 Percent Right)
January 22, 2019

JEN ARBUES







There are things that many of us can agree on. Pizza is a universally delicious
food. Dogs are dumb and hilarious and adorable. There have been more bad movies
in the last 10 years than good ones. But some things, we will never agree upon.
And some unpopular opinions — like these here — may go against the grain, but
they’re 100 percent correct (and I will 100 percent fight you on it).


CHEESE ISN’T GREAT

IMAGE BY: Pixabay.
Unless you’re willing to drop some real dough on high quality imported brie, the
stuff you’re picking out of the deli section of the local Vons is cheap and
gross and tastes like any other shrink-wrapped hunk of cheddar. You only like
cheese because it’s actually addictive, and places like Urban Outfitters make
T-shirts that celebrate it.








NEITHER IS BACON

IMAGE BY: Pixabay.
[dx_custom_adunit desktop_id="RTK_K67O" mobile_id="RTK_5yk0"] Bacon, and the
entire culture that celebrates it, is awful. It’s cured meat. There’s no reason
it should be anywhere near candy, cologne or interior design. If you love bacon
enough to wear it, chances are you’re in need of a real hobby.








EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMALS SHOULDN’T BE CONSIDERED SERVICE ANIMALS

IMAGE BY: Pixabay.
It’s easy to buy a service certificate off the internet for a few bucks that’ll
grant you the ability to bring your beloved doggo on an airplane or to the
movies or whatever. But 90 percent of the time, that certificate is complete
bulls---. And bringing an emotional support turtle inside a restaurant is a slap
in the face to people who actually need the help of a trained animal.








SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA IS NOT AT ALL A PARADISE

IMAGE BY: Wikimedia Commons
Balmy, 75-degree weather year round is incredibly boring. No one understands how
to drive or generally function as a member of society. And people are
self-entitled and mean. Plus, it costs more to live in Southern California than
pretty much anywhere else, and credit card debt is inescapable.








SMALL CHILDREN SHOULD COST MORE TO TRAVEL

IMAGE BY: Pixabay.
[dx_custom_adunit desktop_id="RTK_K67O" mobile_id="RTK_5yk0"] Have you ever had
to share as plane with a child aged 2 to 12? It’s an actual nightmare. They’re
restless and loud and their parents never seem to have full (or any) control
over them. And how is it that they take up more space than three grown adults
combined?








FLAVORED COFFEE GETS A BAD RAP

IMAGE BY: Pixabay.
Coffee culture is a snobby sort of business these days, and, somehow, flavored
coffee got pushed to the bottom of the chain, landing somewhere near the dregs
served at 7-Eleven. But there is nothing wrong with a cup of French vanilla or
Texas pecan, especially when it saves you from having to add cream and sugar.








ASMR VIDEOS ARE ANNOYING AF

IMAGE BY: Wikimedia Commons
When did these become a thing? One second, the Instagram explore page was filled
with terrible memes and dad jokes, and the next, all there is is slime. And soft
sounds. And people trying desperately to get likes based on relaxation
responses. But mostly slime.








SKIPPING BREAKFAST IS PERFECTLY FINE AND HEALTHY

IMAGE BY: Pixabay.
[dx_custom_adunit desktop_id="RTK_K67O" mobile_id="RTK_5yk0"] Not everyone
requires the whole three-solid-meals-a-day thing. And there’s no proof that
people who eat breakfast are any better off than those who don’t. While we’re at
it, turning a bag of popcorn into a meal is OK too (but not necessarily
recommended on a regular basis).








THE MOVIE MID90S IS OVERRATED

IMAGE BY: A24
Not to say that "Mid90s" isn’t a good movie; it certainly is. But it isn’t as
good as critics make it out to be. The reason critics love it so much is that
Jonah Hill made a point of pandering to their sentimentality regarding their
childhood, from the actors’ wardrobes all the way down to the 4:3 aspect ratio.








SO IS HEREDITARY

IMAGE BY: A24
Horror fans have been waiting for a genre film that could qualify as a critical
success for years, and "Hereditary" just happened to come along at the right
time. There’s nothing especially wonderful about it, outside of Toni Collette’s
performance. It’s predictable, and that of-the-rails third act ruined any
promise the first half of the film carried.








NICOLAS CAGE IS A GOOD ACTOR

IMAGE BY: Lionsgate
[dx_custom_adunit desktop_id="RTK_K67O" mobile_id="RTK_5yk0"] Typically, when
you think of Nicolas Cage, what immediately comes to mind is "Face/Off" crazy
eyes, "Con Air" Pantene-level hair, or "The Wicker Man" and “The bees!” But
let’s not forget that Cage is an Academy Award winner twice over, and for all of
the garbage he’s put out, he’s still given us some incredible performances.








SPIRIT ISN’T A TERRIBLE AIRLINE

IMAGE BY: Wikimedia Commons
Look, it’s a budget airline. And with that comes some budget-level practices.
But having to pay for a cup of coffee or a pack of peanuts isn’t all that bad
when you’re only paying $40 to fly across the country. Plus, they have some of
the greatest flight attendants you’ll ever meet.








FAMILY RECIPES AREN’T ALWAYS GOOD RECIPES

IMAGE BY: Pixabay.
Just because your grandmother’s grandmother used to make “six-bean casserole”
every Sunday night does not mean that “six-bean casserole” is good. It’s
probably terrible, and no one is interested in it outside of your immediate
family.








DIETARY RESTRICTIONS ARE NOT PERSONALITY TRAITS

IMAGE BY: Wikimedia Commons
[dx_custom_adunit desktop_id="RTK_K67O" mobile_id="RTK_5yk0"] We get it. You
don’t eat meat, for the animals. That’s cool, no one’s asking you to chow down
on a slab of beef ribs. But spare us your pins and your tattoos and your
Instagram accounts dedicated solely to proving your only worthwhile quality is
the fact that you dig salad.








NEITHER ARE PERSONAL TRAUMAS

IMAGE BY: Pixabay.
We’ve all been through some deep, traumatic stuff in our lives. And, certainly,
some people have had it worse than others. But surviving an abusive relationship
is a life event, not a defining characteristic. And it definitely shouldn’t be a
tagline on an online bio.








PEOPLE WHO AREN'T FRIENDS WITH THEIR EXES AREN’T WORTH DATING

IMAGE BY: Pixabay.
Breakups are tricky, but if things end on fairly copacetic terms, there’s no
reason two people shouldn’t be able to remain friendly with each other. And if
someone feels the need to completely cut off an ex for no good reason, they’re
too immature to be in a relationship with someone new.








FRIENDS IS NOT A GOOD SHOW

IMAGE BY: Warner Bros. Television
[dx_custom_adunit desktop_id="RTK_K67O" mobile_id="RTK_5yk0"] For whatever
reason, "Friends" has become one of the most iconic TV series of all time. Why?
The characters are all pretty terrible, and that whole Ross-and-Rachel dynamic
has always been toxic AF.








THE BEATLES ARE TERRIBLE

IMAGE BY: Wikimedia Commons
So maybe this isn’t one of the most unpopular opinions out there. Lots of
people, even serious music fans (the ones with good taste), sniff at the
Beatles. But it bears repeating. Because the Beatles are just One Direction of
the '60s. And now you’ll never think of them as anything else.








AND POST MALONE IS EVERYTHING THAT’S WRONG WITH MUSIC

IMAGE BY: Wikimedia Commons
Post Malone is the glorified Grammy version of today’s Soundcloud rapper. His
synth pop hip-hop vibe is fine if all you’re looking for is music to get high on
codeine to. But his lyrics are atrocious, and there’s nothing about him that’s
especially unique or praiseworthy.








SPECIAL MOMENTS VIDEOS ARE OBNOXIOUS

IMAGE BY: Pixabay.
[dx_custom_adunit desktop_id="RTK_K67O" mobile_id="RTK_5yk0"] Seeing your
military spouse for the first time in a year is an incredibly emotional
experience... for you. And your spouse. But filming it and putting it up on the
internet to garner attention from millions of strangers does nothing except
cheapen the moment. And it makes you look like a real dick.








JENNIFER LAWRENCE IS A TERRIBLE ACTRESS

IMAGE BY: Wikimedia Commons
Jennifer Lawrence continues to get cast in roles that are way outside of her
skill level. Because, at some point, America decided she was quirky and pretty
and had a body type that was attractive but still relatable for the average
woman. But she sucks at playing women who are in their 40s. Probably because
she’s in her damn 20s. And accents will never ever be her thing.








WRECK-IT RALPH IS A WAY BETTER MOVIE THAN BRAVE

IMAGE BY: Walt Disney Studios
Both films came out in 2012, and "Wreck-It Ralph" seemed to be Disney’s big
comeback to the animation game. But "Brave" still managed to beat it at the
Oscars that year, for really no other reason except that it was a Pixar film,
and the Academy sure does love their Pixar films. It’s been seven years, but I'm
still salty.








BUT FROZEN WAS DOWNRIGHT TERRIBLE

IMAGE BY: Walt Disney Studios
[dx_custom_adunit desktop_id="RTK_K67O" mobile_id="RTK_5yk0"] "Frozen" is trash.
And not at all worth the level of hype that surrounded it. Sure, Idina Menzel is
a talented vocalist. But there have been far, far better animated movie songs
than “Let It Go.” Plus, as far as sidekicks go, Olaf rates about a four.








HAWAIIAN PIZZA FTW

IMAGE BY: Wikimedia Commons
Pineapple. On Pizza. Is delicious. It’s sweet, and its sweetness balances the
saltiness of the rest of the toppings. Anyone who can’t appreciate the subtle
nuanced flavor balance between sweet and savory pizza toppings doesn’t deserve
to eat pizza.
