    [QUOTE]oh the same note as Shelly I HATE danish pastries.  They taste like fruity air.  Not worth the calories.

    I figure that if something doesn't have chocolate in it, it's not worth my time (calories).

    I also do NOT like macaroni and cheese.  Lots of cheese in fact, e.g. feta, blue cheese, American.  BLECH!

    While I read all four Twilight books, I find HP />>>>> Twilight.  They were just easy books to read.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Unpopular opinions? : I don't think that's REALLY unpopular. You'll definitely get mixed opinions here.

    See, but you never can tell, can you?  That's what makes Twilight so dangerous and volatile. 

    There's this country line dancing bar in my town.  I've driven by it for years, wondering "who on earth is going in THERE?"  Then, one night, some friends and I decided it was the perfect place to end our night.  We went in, and stood in awe.  There before us was a sea of cowboy hats, cowboy boots, and they all knew how to dance in unison!  Some of them were our co-workers, some of them were our neighbors, and we simply never knew.  How could we?  They lived perfectly normal lives and then, every Friday and Saturday night...they dressed up and danced together to country & western music.  Such are the ways ofTwilight fans.  You don't always know you're dealing with one until you see them rubbing themselves on a cowboy in some lone dark corner...and then it's too late.

    I don't like football and I don't know anything about it.  When I first saw the San Diego Chargers, I thought they were the South Dakota Lighting Bolts.

    Edit:  I also remember going to Tampa and asking what all the Pirate stuff was.

  • also, this is unpopular around here, but I like nebb. I know she's being a little bit more... abraisive lately, but that happens when you have a new group of people around who think the sun shines out of your ass. you get a little cocky. I get it, I've done it too.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Unpopular opinions? : Wait a second.  Why?  They support their family on their own - it's not like they're on welfare.  I generally object from a population standpoint (and the fact that they use paper plates and plastic utensils all the time and apparently don't recycle), their views on family planning are their own.
    Posted by Sing2phins[/QUOTE]

    I don't think anyone is voting for forced sterlization, she's just stating the choice she would make. And therefore she totally disagrees with the Duggars. I have to agree with Pirata - I don't care that it's their decision, I think it's a poor one.

    And Lala, I also can't stand DMB. HATE. They're on my wedding do-not-play list.

    [QUOTE] I don't understand WoW or it's appeal.
    Posted by georgia_bride09[/QUOTE]

    It's pretty subjective. I think it's a bit harder to understand if you're not into the nerdy aspect of it, ie gaming and/or the whole fantasy genre. I happen to love high fantasy and the whole Warcraft franchise has a very rich story-line. WoW is appealing to me because I get to be a part of said story-line and interact with people who share the same interest. I've met up with 20 or so of the people I play with, and even went to Blizzcon last year and had an amazing time.And the game is just fun.
     
    It's incredibly addicting because of the social aspects, imo, you get to know people very intimately after playing with them for a bit. It's definitely very interaction-based. Hell, it's how me and my fiance met, one of my bridesmaids is a former guildmate, and we have 5 or 6 guests from our guild =)

    Explain please.  What are these "baby leg things"?

    I hate beer.

    <em>Damnit</em>, I know I have some actual unpopular opinions, but whenever these threads come around I can't think of them.

    Posted by KentuckyKate[/QUOTE]

    I agree with this. I find the Ricky Gervais version to be funny. Because the humor is dry. I usualyl like Steve Carrell, but in the Office it seems like he's trying to hard and it's just. not. funny.

    Also, I get asked a lot if I watch Grey's Anatomy. Never have. Not interested. Same with Desperate Housewives.

    I can't believe Two and a Half Men is still on the air, either.

  • I never got into Sex & the City....and if the series was anything like the movies, I am glad I never wasted my time.
  • Let's see:  Starbucks regular coffee tastes like burnt ass.

    I hate going shopping.

    I think that if I lived in Mexico and knew that I could make more money for my family by crossing the border I'd do it.  And so I can't condemn illegal aliens.

    See, I dont think ive been anymore abrasive than I ever am, but I guess its a matter of perception. All of the people im friends with now are generally speaking who ive always been friends with (with an influx of a few newer ones). I just dont know how Ive been cocky, I dont think im any better than anyone else here. Thats just my take.

    I am glad to pay taxes and don't even wish they were lower. I do, however, wish my accountant wasn't an idiot. Hopefully we'll do better next year.

    I also like nebb, I didn't realize that was unpopular.

    I really can't stand cats.

    I also hate DMB.

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.

    YES!!! My SIL puts these HUGE flower bows on her head that cover the whole thing!! Personally, i think its child abuse. And awww, i love baby cows :)

    [QUOTE]I don't think anyone who posts on The Knot with any regularity has a reason to be skeptical about adults and WoW.  For many of us, it's a social experience.  We chat and form friendships (and bicker and create petty drama...) on WoW just like we do here.  The only difference is the background: instead of flaming clueless brides (or each other), we slay pixelated dragons (or each other).  When you get into the raiding and PvP aspects of WoW, a whole host of other factors come into play: challenge, competition, teamwork, deconstructing game mechanics (an entire community exists around this, since Blizzard doesn't publish most of the math that underlies the game), etc.  I could try to explain it, but I don't think anyone actually cares.  :p
    Posted by Celles[/QUOTE]

    I care =D Granted,  I nerd it up with some hardcore warlock theorycrafting each patch, but I always like talking to other chicks that play, mostly because so few of them are cool. Being surrounded by a group of nerdy virgin boys tends to bring out the attention whore in most of the ones I've met.
