What's some really unpopular opinion you have?
What's some really unpopular opinion you have?
Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it's actually pretty popular.
Do you have some that's really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

I lose respect for people when I hear them saying Oh my God. Even more so when English isn't their first language.
Also the phrase I understand, but - no, you fucking don't, just admit that you neither agree or understand
This is a good one because I can't even fathom what you're annoyed about. Except if you're offended by blasphemy.
I mean, it's the phrase itself and that I can't escape hearing it.
I often say versions of stuff myself like "Dear God", "God in heaven" etc in other languages when I express things and react to stuff.
I cuss and swear like a cocksucking, shiteating dogfucker too in everyday conversations, so I wouldn't describe myself as crude or offended by stuff. Swearing over here mentions hell and devil a lot, so I'm not a stranger to popping off those ones, either.
It's just that phrase specifically in English that irks me as boring and unimaginative for being overused everywhere. Throwing that phrase in English during non-English speech just sounds more like aping stuff than a genuine expression. Vanilla is at a quadrillion Scoville scale compared tho the phrase.
Specifically that three-worded phrase. Not "Oh, God" or"My God" - I don't have anything to say about them. It's about the whole "Oh, my god" package.
I am sick and tired of hearing that one everywhere I turn or go.
Why? It’s just an expression (and an extremely common one at that)
(and an extremely common at that)
That is the biggest factor in my annoyance with it. Can't come up with anything else, once in a while?
Shit tastes like chocolate compared to how it sounds when thw specific phrase "Oh my god" is dropped in English in a conversation that's not even in English by people who don't even have it as their first language.
I've reached the point where that phrase just sounds like a poor pop-culture reference than an actual expression.
Why?
I may have been overexposed with that phrase specifically
I can see that. OMG kind of gets me - the use of the acronym with spoken letters when it's the same number of syllables as the actual phrase.
So is I understand, but I disagree bc ... allowed?
Oh my Satan
I think "Devil in hell" is my most commonly used everyday swearing expression
I don't think I've heard that one before.
(albeit not said in English)
How the hell does English being or not being the first language weigh in? Believing it or not, we do have the words for "oh my God" as well!
It's uncreative and just sounds like aping when that phrase is said in English specifically in everyday conversations that aren't even English.
