Unpopular Opinions and (Friendly) Rant thread

For the second year in a row the team I was rooting to win the whole thing lost in the Finals...
This one hurts more than last year for sure, no one believed in this Pacers team and they fought their heart out. Once Haliburton hit that 3rd three, I knew he was on track for a big game. Then Haliburton comes down with one of the worst possible injuries in ball and everything goes to shit.
Maybe basketball isn't for me man, I can't keep doing this to myself.
The Pacers were playing against OKC and the refs
 
Trying to classify verses into certain categories like "popular" or "controversial" to determine how many staff approval are needed to applying CRTs is a complete bullshit.
If this was made 2-3 years ago, I'm 100% convinced the Pro Wrestling verse would've made that list

They're just bored now lmao
Doing pure nonsense for the fun of it
I would've contested it out of the sheer fact it barely gets staff attention
Wait weren't you a retired mod
 
Yeah, but why did they want to remove it?
I'd be here all day if I were to explain in detail, but to sum it up in the most barebones, simplistic way possible...

Staff thought half-naked men and women wrestling who play fictional characters on TV didn't fit the wiki's standards to make profiles for them. Me (with the help of a ton of other people) had to make multiple CRTs to explain why this verse was okay to have on the wiki.

I mean the WWE is scripted, is original content, and is fairly reasonable on their nudity/sex standards (this is coming for a normie whose only real interaction with WWE is Joh Cena memes and Roman Reigns). Seems stupid to remove it.
 
Random rant:
I can't help but find it funny when profiles give a character an over exaggerated amount of abilities from a feat that could easily be described by just one of them, like:

"Little timmy saw the demon in front of him. He started trembling, trying desesperately to look away and close his eyes, but his knees were weak as he froze. He started sweating profusely, feeling dizzy and his heart strained, it was a sensation of death, he felt like he could die at any instant."
This would just be intimidation or fear manip as it's just a more elaborated description of the symptoms caused by fear, but in the profile it's listed as:

Fear manipulation (scared little timmy) Body puppetry (Forced little timmy to look at him and keep his eyes open) Statistics Reduction (made timmy lose strength) Paralysis inducement (made timmy unable to move) status effect inducement (caused dizzyness and paralysis with his presence alone) biological manipulation (caused Timmy's heart to strain, his body to sweat ) Perception manipulation , Illusion Creation and death manipulation (Made timmy feel as if death itself had come for him, could cause him to die at any instant.)

sounds more like reality maniup (rewrote the fabric of reality to make little timmy scared)
but ya i agree, also makes it hard to read imo.

I'm also not a fan of this, but it's ultimately a formatting preference thing.
 
Expected nothing less for a harem to have the longest love speech in a Japanese anime ever, since love in a harem is not limited to one person, so there is lots to say, etc. By the way, in the anime, the love speech was to 11 girls, so it makes sense it was so long since it is from a true harem MC who loves all girls equally, with love that has no limits, breaks rationality, logic, the 4th wall, infinity, etc.

Then with Tier 0 characters honestly all of the abilities can be condensed into omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence given that they are aware of and can utilise/grant themselves theoretically limitless abilities and power as well as being in every point of space and time and possibly beyond (in limitless worlds/cosmologies, layers/levels of existence, dimensions, multiverses, universes/realms and space-time continua via said abilities and possibly other stuff like panentheism, apophasis and ineffability) so welp.
 
Spoilers for JJK ending (if you already read or dont care then yeah proceed

To this day I really wished that GeGe went through and killed off both Megumi and Yuta. Megumi feels much simpler because realistically I dont even think there should be a way for Megumi to truly come back, Hes been hit w Unlimited Void, has been in despair, etc. with all the dmg Sukuna took I really think it would've been better for Megumi to bite the dust, especially if Nobara had come back (it has its own issues but if Gege did give a bit more to inform the reader that shes alive and made her fight earlier I think it would mitigate the problem) which could add a bit of a tragic end. Yuta is more of a personal thing because outside of all the problems I have with him (I wont go into rn) I find it baffling that Yuta lived. I really liked the monster thing Yuta had and honestly I wished that like a monster, he dies like one he simply dies in his last moments maybe even gaining some memory about him and gojo because I found the whole Yujo brain plan to potentially fail in a fatal end extremely interesting. Now if you guys like Megumi or Yuta, thats fine and pop off But I just dont like the fact that they both get to survive and live with barely any injury outside of minor scars. Like one guy got brain blasted alongside every injury sukuna took and the other risked his life for a plan that would result in either his death or him forever possessing his mentors body like some imposter they shouldnt have survived that
 
I think we should have an honest convo on how much "aura farming" is rotting mfs brains
The best moment is with Solo Leveling, the first arc. Sung Jinwoo was trying to get some medicine to save his mother. He needed to get stronger/level up and do anything for it alone, which required him to show no emotions, kill people without feeling anything, be cold and such. And those things made him look cooler "aura farm". But when he saved his mother ,showed emotion and cried, the episode got downvoted because he was losing aura.

And today I was reading Redo of Healer manga and proud of Kayaru’s character development as a harem MC, which requires emotions and love for the girls. This is the comment I found.

I mean, with the second part about Redo Of Healer, given the circumstances of the beginning of the story, even with the development it's still fundamentally screwy...
true.
Also, if you like Redo Of Healer and similar stories, there's another two I found through TV Tropes cause of the site editors commenting on the similarities of the plots (if you haven't already seen them before):

The first one, I didn’t give a chance. It only has 12 chapters. The second one, The Hero Who Seeks Revenge Shall Exterminate With Darkness, is the only non-harem manga I’ve read.
The joy and satisfaction behind the MC’s revenge are incredible. He has no loved ones, no harem, just pure, unrestrained revenge.
He targets everyone who wronged him, and his revenge knows no limits. Anything cruel you can imagine is included.
With no one he cares about left, he manipulates everyone freely. He has no weaknesses anyone can exploit. Not even gods are safe from his revenge, they’re included
Even the dead, or those he already took revenge on, aren’t spared. They suffer for eternity. And it doesn’t stop there. Basically, it's the best revenge anime out there.
