Unpopular Opinions and (Friendly) Rant thread

Tell me how to make a scrumptious beef wellington
😐 Sorry for late reply, Forum's not real time...

But you probably need recipe sites for that welp.


If you need more recipe resources... Or you can search for the best ones on Google if these aren't good enough.
 
Regular members should have some degree of voting power especially if they are knowledgeable about the verse, but this should depend on the popularity of the series

So for eg, ultra popular verses like DB would still be limited to mod votes (since they do get attention) but something small like seven spellblades, should require verse supporters/opponents + 1 mod vote instead of 2

The exact numbers can change ofc but it would make things easier to update
 
There are tons of verses where the most knowdgeable members see "upgrades" as inherently good and "downgrades" inherently bad and just want to stuff the PA with garbage and wank the verse. No I dont trust most normal users. We would have every children's TV show wanked beyound belief by the end of the day

Children's shows are already wanked beyond belief, that's the best part.

I am copying from a reddit reply of mine to some extent.

The Amazing Digital Circus ep 9 got leaked in low quality and brazilian portuguese. I watched it with eng subs and I have thoughts. I will not share this thoughts in the open and will spoiler it so that nobody here gets spoiled by this.

THIS IS A FULLY SPOILER REVIEW, DO NOT OPEN IT IF YOU DON'T WANT SPOILERS.

It felt...disappointing. I expect to be hit, I expected to be challenged. Instead I got...nothing. Jax never got his conclusion. He's now an abstraction sleeping in a tent with a mild implication that he may or may not get better. Considering the other abstractions are now in an aquarium, clearly they're not coming back.

I was ready to accept Jax dying. I was ready to be happy for Jax surviving and finally coming to terms with things. Instead, he is now in limbo, not really dead, not really alive, just in this eternally uncertain state. I hate uncertainty more than anything and seeing this just, I was going to say pisses me off but it more so just makes me sad.

Worse for me is, them accepting being fake and living normally in this world, them knowing that their real selves are out there and they are stuck here until the end of human civilization. I know that we were told that the topic of this series is that there is a point in a static live but I just can't accept it here, not like that. Not with all the abstractions still gone despite us being shown that there's still a chance.

Everything with Jax and Pomni's relationship felt pointless in the end. This shit was going well and honestly even if they had her save him and have him come back, as cliche as it would've been, it would've made me happy, because it'd be a conclusion, the catharsis of their interactions. Instead, it reached the catharsis and then it flatlined. It led nowhere. It was all for naught and the episode treats it as it is the correct thing that should've happened.
The worst part is we're essentially ending this storyline with a character being suicidal and then just getting offscreened and not having a resolution. This is very bad imo.

I think the one and only thing that leaves a sliver of hope in this episode is the moon. Yes, the moon. Caine never programming the moon to love and yet it loving him suggests that the AI is now becoming proper sentient. Somehow the AI has given me more hope in this series about being genuine than the humans, who are now in this static reality where they'll remain and not change.

But hey, I am glad that Caine survived and changed.

It wasn't enough. It didn't resolve the right story beats, it didn't give the unexpected hit that the rest of the episodes gave. It doesn't measure up to what the series is but it also isn't bad bad, it is alright and only bad depending on your own moral compass for the most part. Watch it, it's not the boys ending if you're worried, but it has things that made me very disappointed.
 
King Dice is by far the hardest boss in original Cuphead. 2nd hardest is the Rumor Honeybottoms (bee boss). Also platforming levels are huge meh (controls doesn't feel right in sections where you're walking up, huge waves of enemies aren't really challenging, they're just dragging those levels a lot)
 
There are some music genres i can't get why people listen to, hyperpop is one of them. Feels too much like tiktok/edit music.

On the topic of music, I dislike how expensive band merch is. Why is it like $50 for one hoodie 😔

I have the direct opposite issue where I can listen to basically any genre. Doesn't matter if it's country, or a white girl song about wanting your crush to notice you, or some obscure russian bass-bosted jumpstyle hardcore song that samples old people screeching at the top of their lungs. That being said, Drakengard's OST is genuinely the worst thing to ever be composed.
 
Until the celebrity does something lightly controversial most of us do without thinking, at which point they get executed
You don't understand in 2012 they said that gay people suck which means that 14 years later they NEED to be held accountable because making an edgy unfunny comment years back is really really horrible even if you clearly changed and apologized after it.
By the way.. Don't bring up any controversial things a celebrity I like did, because it only works when it's someone I don't care for.

..What do you mean I'm a hypocrite who is clearly digging up old drama just to be validated and get my precious precious likes on twitter dot com and that I will never do any real activism i.e donating to a homeless shelter or going to a pride parade?

Notice that only the celebrities who turned a new leaf or who have a generally good conduct but made some stupid joke are the ones who get crucified by the public.

The celebrities who are brazenly bigoted and fascists don't get the same treatment.

The "good side" does tend to cannibalize itself with performative outrage, moral purity and grandstanding.

Of course it's not impossible that it's a psyop, astroturfing and bad faith actors poisoning the well.
