Controversial Opinions (For Everything Other Than DC Comics)

[ed2962]

Growing up in the 80s there was a lot of overlap with punks and Metalheads who liked Iron Maiden, Metallica, Anthrax, etc. They were both pretty much the same, they hated the hairbands and poppy stuff.

That was my era. At first there was some animosity between the two camps, but by the mid 80's crossover was big thing.

A band that certainly found favour from both camps were Motorhead.

Rock music has always been rather clannish to be honest. Mods vs. Rockers. Led Zeppelin vs. Rolling Stones. Punk vs. Prog. Thrash vs. Glam metal. It's a lot more civil than it used to be. Classic Rock radio stations nowadays play music that they wouldn't have touched 20 years ago. It's all been good to me (well, apart from Nu-Metal ).

And for the record: Rockers, Led Zeppelin, Prog and Thrash get my vote.

I'm vegan and I can still eat certain kinds of cake and it is still awesome! ����



One of my best friends works in the clothing industry; I am constantly bothering her to mend and alter things.



Like I said, vegan; I practically have to carry all my meals with me in my bag!

It's also good for hitting folks. ��������



Word. ��



They are indeed tedious. ��

And you are awesome for saying that. ����



Ugh.��



"Abortion rights or whatever"?

Seriously? I guess we are just incompetent and frivolous then. Thanks.��☁

Wanna bet if his testicles rights were in question, it would not be "or whatever" then?

I guess when they finally drop he'll worry about them.

I don't even know why I mentioned it. I'm probably just opening myself up for intimations of my intellectual deficiencies and other thinly veiled insults.

*sigh*

I am still regularly reminded of how "stupid" I am for hoping that I'd get to see a woman President in my lifetime and the election has been over for quite a while.

It isn't stupid to hope for positive change.

You are not stupid.
You are amazing.♡♡♡

On reflection, maybe the Deftones weren't the best example to give. Although I dislike them myself, they do seem to enjoy a greater level of respect than any of the other 'nu-metal' bands. Substitute them for (shudder) Papa Roach.

Oh boy. Papa Roach. I had forgotten about them.

I've seen this opinion being aired more and more on sites like this. I actually think that (with the possible exception of 'The Winter Soldier') it's the best MCU movie yet. I only got round to watching it over the Christmas period.

Honestly, I fail to see what the big appeal was. I mean, not a bad movie by any means, but I don't think it's the super-excellent movie some folks think it is.

�� Really?

Thaaanks... ����

Yes, of course!!♡♡♡♡♡
I do not give compliments that I do not mean.

I really haven't seen it. Actually, I think the last musical I watched was "Chicago", and it was a complete borefest. I fail to understand what the fascination with musical movies is.

The only movie musical I ever watched was Jesus Christ Superstar. It looks darn good on Blu-Ray.

[Hilden B. Lade]

I think that, without any room for question, the greatest musical of all time is Trey Parker and Matt Stone's Cannibal! The Musical

Ketchup goes pretty good with hot dogs, Dirty Harry be damned.

I think Bratwurst is better than hot dogs.

Beer brats are awesome

[WestPhillyPunisher]

I prefer hot dogs.

To me, the Winter Soldier is the best MCU movie yet.

Nothing controversial there.

I had a horrible experience with metal fans when I was a teenager, and now they make me really nervous.

I did too actually. I think it depends on what sort of area you are in. When I was a kid I was bullied quite a bit by metal kids and most of them were real scum bags. As I got older I met metal fans who were more nerd type people and eventually became a fan myself. A lot of the "cool" people into metal were nerd types who were also into D&D, comics, etc...Unfortunately those types were not in the small city I grew up in.
