2021 unpopular opinion thread

[Croquet temper]

American cheese is the face american cheeses.
But cheddar is actually the most American cheese by consumption/popularity.

(FYI...manchego is the most popular Spanish cheese. Don’t @ me)

(FYI...I didn’t research any of this.)

Extra sharp cheddar.

I don't like sour skateboards mainly because it's a parody brand. The team is amazing but I'd wish they would skate more somewhere else than Spain.

Anything youtube is extremely corny except Send Saturdays.

Funny how perception can be so different. I think sour is one of the sickest companies around atm and sour solution II was maybe the best full length Videos in the last year

They came to Guatemala and have quite a few clips in Sour Solution 2 from here, as well as from all over Europe, you trippin G

Man, I wish those alltimers guys would drink and hang out more. I wish passport would skate Australia. I wish Jenkem would do some day in the life stuff, maybe a dating program? With Chachi?

Clint Eastwood sucks. He's built this reputation as some sort of tough guy but he's a pampered Hollywood crybaby always bitching about whatever Republicans bitch about. He was pretty good in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly but after that he's always played the same role but with slight permutations over and over again where all he does is squint and mumble. Now we have to see his shriveled up face continue to try to be the eternal tough guy only now he's no longer a pretty boy. Fuck Clint Eastwood.

This is shockingly untrue and a bad opinion. He's had regular success as a director for almost 50 years, and has worked in pretty much every genre. He also composed a number of scores for his films. Have you seen anything he is in or directed other then the man with no name films? Just cause you don't like his acting doesn't mean he sucks. this is in fact an unpopular opinion

did you register solely to defend the hollywood career of clint eastwood

yo wut up clint

[formula420]

^ if clint has been lurking slap and finally made an account for this it would be the greatest event in history.

[JamesFardy]

32 year old here, skating for 25 of those years, and ending it with commenting in this forum means I “made it.”

you just don't like his politics. when i was in prison, if a man smoked your weed w/ you in a cell, you had to fuck him in the ass. i didn't want to do it but politics is politics. it doesn't mean the guy wasn't a good actor but those politics suck!

[Cellular]

i just hope people stop bringing non skaters to lowkey spots, and then burn them with loud music, smoking and littering

Barca, socal, china footy it's all been done to death and I'm good not seeing those spots ever again in skate videos..

It's just not my scene so whatevs..

Also my main grief with sour is their branding not the skateboarding.

[imjusthereforthechips]

the face zoom will never go away. in fact, it will be used even more than it already is. every clip in every video will start and end with a facezoom. it will get to the point where skate videos wont show skating anymore, just the entire clip is the skater's face. full length videos will be nothing but face zooms.

[EdLawndale]

...okay...

Did you have to bum him as punishment for taking your weed? Or did you smoke weed together and then had to bum each other?

I don’t disagree that Clint is a world class right wing asshole, but he’s one of the best directors working today. “Richard Jewell” was a master work, and one of the only American films with anything to say in a decade

Nothing has been milked harder in skateboarding than the mild cultural relevancy of Larry Clark/Harmony Korine films.

[anti-bolts]

i fucking hate dylan jaebs style. too similar to shane and yuto and to make it worse he pretty much only skates poods
also old school tricks look better and are more fun than flips
people with better flow and style should be considered better skaters than people who just do the same tech janky shit down a double

[Nosebleed-section]

I’d respect you more if you just said ‘i don’t like people who do tricks i can’t do’

[Mr Cheese Resurrection]

I disagree about how Tigers love pepper and hate cinnamon. I believe that tigers love Cinnamon more and just the small thought of Pepper makes them angry.

There's about a million things in skating that have been milked harder than this and aren't even good in the first place

nah cause see for example: heelflip. heelflips are easy for me and pretty much my main flip trick, but i hate the way they look except for when krod does them. a fucked up wallie still looks tons better than a perfect shane switch flip.

[Murge]

98% Dead Dave isn’t fun/entertaining to watch. Just kinda corny 

[Roy Machine]

I don't get the white shoes with black laces/black Soles and the all black shoes with white laces thing. To me both looks ugly

FA/Hockey boards are shaped like absolute shit rectangles and i dont get it. anyone that says "dude theyre just old workshop shapes" was obviously not there bc aws had great shapes.

i dont like FA/Hockey graphics.
