[QUOTE]I don't know how anyone can get excited about going to a Coldplay concert. They just make me want to go to sleep not totally rock out dude! Same goes for U2. It's like the kind of music that should be played in a dentist's office, to me.

I got totally excited to go to a Coldplay concert once, then fell asleep on the lawn.
Experience has led me to agree with your unpopular opinion, so I guess I'm doing it wrong here.

Yeah, I watched it and wasn't that impressed!
Mine is: I don't mind if people are invited to the bachelorette and not the wedding. At least, so long as it's a casual "Hey let's go out for drinks and celebrate!" kind, not necessarily a "Let's go to Vegas for the weekend" kind.

Right with you on that. I also hate AI with a passion.
I also hate baby bows, especially the huge ones (bigbowbaby.com). I think they are obnoxious and hideous but a lot of people i know (including SIL, ew) think they are amazing and adorable. To me it looks like a 747 landed on their heads, but whatevs.

I don't think that's REALLY unpopular. <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-wink.gif" border="0" alt="Wink" title="Wink" /> You'll definitely get mixed opinions here.

100% with you here. I had one of my friends telling me what an amazing writer Stephanie Meyer was, and I almost died.

I originally read this as "I hate baby cows", and I actually said, "Awww" out loud in my sad voice, but then I realized it said bows. RCF.
I'm right there with you on the bows. My BFF puts them on her daughter 24/7 on this gauzy bandy thing and it looks like a head injury all dressed up. She does big flowers too.
This has made me really dislike AHRs. I didn't have a strong opinion before since i had never been invited to one, but why would I want to go to 2 events for a wedding I wasn't invited to and buy you 2 presents? I guess it doesn't help that I'm not super close with this cousin to begin with, and I might feel differently if it was someone I was close to, but this is getting ridiculous. Pick one or the other, small wedding with fewer gifts, or larger wedding with more gifts.

[QUOTE]WR: I think it's borderline unfair to not give people the option of coming with a date. It makes your guests more comfortable. Even if they are single and don't want to bring a date. This goes double if they are OOT, in the wedding party, or don't know anyone. I don't get how we tell everyone "make your guests comfortable!" and then say, "well, if they've only been dating 3 months, you don't have to invite him."

Yeah and that after so many, or if people keep having kids when they can't afford them. Sterilization. Like the Duggar woman? Should have been sterilized several kids ago.

But how else will you know it's a girl?! Other than the baby stud earrings. J/k. (Though I think baby bows can be cute.) I don't want to start that earring debate again, either.

[QUOTE]I still hate NPR.
Posted by Brie2010[/QUOTE]
It would be really funny if you had said NPH. Then I'd be all, "Neil Patrick Harris's birthday was yesterday! I heard it on NPR! Show some Doogie Houser respect."

I also hate the idea of pets going outside un supervised. Even when the backyard is fenced in. The whole idea makes me nervous.

[QUOTE]Miller Lite is my favorite beer. And I've tried several others, but I just prefer the lighter (less beery, some would say) taste. And it's cheaper, and I'm cheap.

I'll take this one step further. I've been drinking Busch Light for years... $22 for a 30 pack. Can't beat it. :)
Married!
I don't understand WoW or it's appeal.
I agree with Stackeye.

HA - I heard that yesterday and I was all like, "T that's not fair, you get to share a birthday with NPH, all I get is Snoop dog". He looked at me like I was so dumb.

Fi's ex girlfriend has the same birthday as Elvis. I get Billy Joel. WTF? (Also Candace Bergen, Rosario Dawson, Mike Wallace, and John Brown - the abolitionist/crazy person, depending on your view.)

I can't get into Glee, either. I've watched it a few times, so I've really tried, but it just isn't happening.
I hated the ending of Lost. Weeks later, I still feel cheated.
I firmly believe in sterilization. Then again, I work in a child support office where we see time and time again women getting pregnant just for the welfare check.
I hate Coldplay, too. They want to be Radiohead, but failed.
I hate that Death Cab for Cutie is such an awesome band name, but the band itself are a bunch of ball-less wonders. Why waste such an awesome name on such suck?
I've got a lot of other unpopular opinions, too, but these are just off the top of my head.
