30 Spicy Unpopular Opinions: Let’s See How Many You Actually Agree With

First, some parents are just s****y parents. Second, kids have to learn how to behave in public.

I'm genuinely curious to hear from the people who disagree. I've been homeless, I'm still living below the poverty level: having enough money to buy a pack of chips makes me happy because it's a rare occurrence. I agree that money can't solve all problems, but one is factually gonna be happier when they don't have to spend their days wondering whether they can afford rent, bills and also food.

There was a study, money does buy happiness. https://penntoday.upenn.edu/news/does-more-money-correlate-greater-happiness-Penn-Princeton-research

At some point, money doesn't buy happiness. That point is when you have enough to live comfortably and don't have to sweat every penny. Until that point, money certainly can buy happiness.

It’s much more nuanced than just money can/can’t buy happiness.

"All I ask is the chance to prove that money can't make me happy"

I consider myself not exactly poor, but definitely living from paycheck to paycheck. If I won millions in the lottery, I could easily pay all debts and whatnot, and make my life easier, therefore making me happier.

Research has shown that up till a certain amount, money definitely does lessen stress and increase happiness.

It 100% can: it can either buy things to make to happy (saying that this isn't "buying happiness" is like saying that having food doesn't alleviate hunger), or technically you *could* use money to buy whatever the happiness brain chemicals are

Money doesn't buy happiness, but it buys time and peace of mind, and that's close enough.

Money makes life easier, but not necessarily happier.

Of course. There is no way to be happy being poor

Money buys safety. But the richest man in the world is a massive D-R-U-G A-D-D-I-C-T. No it can not buy happiness. Musk is trying, and failing, to buy happiness in front of our eyes. Don't be like Elon Musk.

And takes away your nerves

Money can not buy happiness but it can buy marshmallows which is pretty d**n close.

Even if you can't actually buy happiness with money, it's the best subscription plan out there.

Spaniard here...Maybe money doesnt give happines, but it helps a lot!

Yup, qnother case of something that I don't hate, just wish people stopped being so smug about.

"The customer is always right, in matters of taste."

As the market determines prices for products and services, they get paid according to what their followers believe is their worth

Who are the people who find them convenient rather than creepy ? Seriously. I once couldn't pay my internet and sought unsecured networks. I successfully connected to a fridge. Like, this guy's "smart" fridge was happily sharing his connection with anyone without his knowledge. Any bored hacker would have a lot of fun with it...

It didn’t work for Stalin.

They do t have to, but the corporate money machine ruined them, and I'm actually surprised that it took it that long.

Maybe this is just me being autistic, but i will never understand the fascination with food that hurts your mouth and prevents you from tasting anything else but pain. To each their own i guess.

This is another question where the answer is 'depends'. Is the question referring to having unplanned, relaxed free time, or is it referring to being antsy, distracted and ill at ease?

No I'm sorry. If you don't like pets, I'm crossing you off my friend list. You don't have to own one , but if you dislike animals, I want nothing to do with you.

Beards are cool. mullets are not

Just don't call me please.

Cold is not better than hot, but nexd day pizza (which some uncultured people eat cold) is indeed better, hence the confusion.

I think it's a just a nice acknowledgement towards someone who sneezed. Like hey, I'm paying attention to whatever you got going on over there and wish you well!

Hard of hearing so yes

You forgot the last part... "give the author money" 🙃

It depends highly on why and where. We just shipped a die set that the customer ran flawlessly, everyone lets go to the good steakhouse? Yeah. We made an extra 5 million last quarter, here's some cold pizza? No.

I'd prefer a dream bank account!

I do both.

Being nice is free. Being an a-hole can cost you.

I dunno. I have always found that giving a punch is far more enjoyable than recieving one.

I couldn't "power nap" if I wanted to. I just wake up more tired or groggy

I love my husband with all my heart. We got married for tax and hospital privilege purposes

While you're doing what ?! I love listening to podcasts when I'm cleaning or being out and about because I'm learning stuff while doing mundane chores. But when I'm doing something that requires concentration, I rather listen to music: it blocks out the outside sounds, but it doesn't require me to pay attention.

They were so different. You can't really assess the impact unless you were there at the time.

Surface area to volume ratio is very different. Pancakes are squishy and spongy and waffles are crunchier. I prefer waffles.

I still think it's weird that we actively seek out another mammal's breast milk. I prefer plant milks. Whether they are better tasting kind of depends on the type and brand, since they differ a lot.

Coffee is addictive, it's a fact. But it also tastes good - the same as a lot of other addictive things like chocolate or booze.

I live in a small town. I love to travel to large cities to experience the culture. Also interacting with different ethnicities lets me see how people can be different and still be the same in some ways.
