Re: Unpopular opinions

  • I've never seen the princess bride, FI father LOVES this movie. I don't get abstract art either, and FI has not seen any of the Star Wars movies.
  • Also, the sword fighting.

  • The Princess Bride isn't a chick flick!  It is, however, a classic.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Unpopular opinions : Do you mean like, abstract art? I personally find art in all sorts of things, (clothes, furniture, food presentation, photography, painting, theatre, etc) so I'm confused.
    Posted by JessAndTrav[/QUOTE]

    I guess art for art's sake. FI could (and has) spend days at the Louvre. I could barely do an hour. I think buildings are cool, we have strange mish mash at our house, I have blue prints and he has art. He's getting a Jackson Pollack inspired groom's cake. I don't even know what that means.

  • I'm also in the camp that The Princess Bride is not a chick flick.
  • I haven't seen Princess Bride

    Or Anchorman

    I actually really don't like Will Farrell.

    I do like cheese though.  And bacon so...yeah.

  • I don't like many dogs. I like some dogs. I like cats a lot better. I'm starting to wonder if I even want to get a dog. At all. Cats can take their of themselves for 24 hours and they're cute and soft. Most dogs aren't that soft, they smell like dog, and you have to take them outside.

    I can't stand DMB.

    I don't really like Tom Hanks.

    I do like Lindsay Lohan and I hope she makes a comeback.

  • True stories:

    Some random guy was honking at H and I while we were running errands in H's car. He was motioning for us to roll the window down, so I did. He then says "Nice license plate!", um, thanks. H has an Ohio Sate logo on his plate (he also has a huge block O on the back window), and so did this guy apparently.

    I've also been in the car with H (H's car) and had people honk their horn and then yell  out their window "O H!", to which H is supposed to reply "I O!"

    We live in Virginia.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Unpopular opinions : Well, just because they're your best friends doesn't mean they have to do EVERYTHING for you, or that you have to tes their loyalty. I mean, I wouldn't ask a friend to write a term paper for me, just because we're friends and she should do it if she loves me because I'm busy with other stuff. That's my job. So is planning my wedding.

    Never said they I expect them to do EVERYTHING for me, nor did I say I expected any planning help. I mean emotional support, advice, listening when I'm frustrated type things.

  • Yeah, your bridesmaids don't really HAVE To do that. I mean, as a good friend, sure you would, but they don't HAVE to.

    And believe me, sometimes I wish I wouldn't have to, but I do it anyway.

    [QUOTE]I thought the very first Saw movie was awesome.  It scared me so much I couldn't sleep for a week - that is a good horror movie.
    Posted by pinkpinot[/QUOTE]

    If you like Saw, you should like Cube. It is a brilliant low-budget Canadian film, and many people think that Saw took its idea from it.

  • Even well behaved kids can be assssholes sometimes.  I always get stuck sitting next to them in restaurants. 

    I hate when I'm in a nice restaurant and people bring their kids.  THere's a reason why they don't have a kids menu here.  They don't want kids here.  So, get your take out and go.  Or get a babysitter.

  • Mery, I don't really like dogs too much either. 

    When it comes to animals, I love my own cat like whoa but I don't really like or care about anyone else's expect to oooh and ahh over how cute they are.  I don't really want to pet them or play with them or let them jump all over me though.  Funny thing is, I feel the exact same way about kids.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: Unpopular opinions : This reminds me: it's a running joke among our group of friends to continuously plot out The Worst Movie Of All Time, co-starring Hayden Christiansen and Kristen Stewart in what started out as romantic comedy.  At some point it deteriorated into cyborgs and mutant cows. I agree, though -- THAT was a travesty.

  • I'm gonna go all the way back to like page two and ditto the hating Taylor Swift. She's a terrible singer, and her songs make me stabby. They're all about loving some guy she can't have or being with someone in some trying circumstances, and they're all story like and annoying. Blah!

    I also hate beans. Except green beans, oh and Peas. They're gross too.

    Boo to Miracle Whip. It's just gross!

    (it took me forever to finally catch up to the end of this thread, I looked and there were three posts and 10 minutes later there were 108).

    [QUOTE]Also, the oddest thing I've ever purchased is the beemer.  Sweet jesus, H gets a TON of compliments on his car whenever he's driving.  No one says a word to me when I'm driving it.  Apparently I'm just the (<strong>overweight and unattractive</strong>) trophy wife driving H's car.
    Posted by wadingmoose[/QUOTE]

    Boo to this. You stop that. Also, everyone knows that flashy cars are extensions of the penis, therefore complimenting men on such things is obligatory. Women, not so much. ;)

  • No, I haven't seen Date Night but perhaps I will.

    Lala, I think that is probably the person who said it, I saw it listed on some random dog quotes website and just saved the text because it was funny.

    I will never, ever agree to be a BM in a wedding ever again.  It has been the worst experience of my life so far and it will be all over after this Monday (who the eff gets married on a Monday anyway?).

  • My exH was apparently a pretty well behaved child.

    His parents were mortified when he had a temper tantrum in a restaurant once and told his Dad he didn't want any fuucking fries.  Yeah.  not normal behaviour, but even the best kid has their moments.
