Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!

How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.

If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.

Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)

If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].

Rules:

1. NO POLITICS

Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.

2. Be civil.

Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.

3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...

Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.

5. No trolling.

This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.

Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

The Superbowl is nothing more than watching rich people fight over a ball while companies spend obscene amounts of money to blast advertisements at you. (dubvee.org)

No offense or judgement meant to anyone if that's your thing (to each their own). That's just how I see pretty much all professional sports - the super bowl is just the poster child for it.

I mean you're judging me based on finding a little bit of entertainment from commercials during a game, how else am I supposed to take it? Also don't turn this around on me, you're being the judgemental prick here about something dumb AF.

Also a pretty weird stance to take considering how you're saying you're not a fan, like who are you to judge my fandom especially when apparently you are not a fan?

Again, this all goes back to how about not being a judgemental prick and letting people enjoy what they enjoy?

Wasn't a judgemental statement as far as I am concerned. Unless you think someone assuming you don't prioritize the sport of the game you are watching because of your statement on the commercials is somehow a judgement on your character. I was bringing up that the people I know who stopped are there for the football, not the extras.

Well so sorry I don't meet your silly metrics for football fandom. 🤷‍♂️

Sorry my silly metrics bothered your silly sensitivities.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I'm just glad to see I was right when I judged you a prick, but don't worry my sensitivities are just fine because I'm enjoying myself rather than being a miserable hater online.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 10 months ago

You are doing plenty of hating online, at the moment. Oh and I was replying to sarcasm with sarcasm, that makes us both pricks.
