Unpopular opinions go here

t was a good song, but I don’t know that I’d label it “the most quintessentially 90s song”.

Thing is…I’m not sure I could say ANY song is “the most quintessentially 90s song”.

Oh Danny, you couldn't make a list even if we gave you a 100 songs to put on it.

I admit that I'm trolling a bit. Cannonball is a good song, I'm very fond of it. But I'm not sure what makes a song quintessentially 90s either. (Maybe all the band wearing doc martins?) I'm actually quoting some clickbait from my google feed.

But hey, it's an unpopular opinion, and at least it isn't about the definition of "RPG."

If you were trolling you could do much better. Heya, yippie yi yo

So .... here's the thing. Do you know what single was the top-selling single of the 90s?

Elton John's Candle in the Wind.

Do you know what single spent the most time on the Billboard charts?

Michael Bolton's How Am I Supposed to Live Without You.


How we remember the 1990s- Flannel, Docs, and Grunge.

How the 90s actually happened- Michael Bolton selling records.

This admission in high school cost me any chance I might have had with a cute red headed girl. She played the bass. She adored Monty Python. I've alreay paid the price.

I agree. The vast, vast, vast majority of threads here are not plus threads, and within the first four pages (and I'm being generous) of most threads we see that they end up being threadjacked into something else by people that are arguing with the premise or who wish to turn it into The Same Argument They Have In Every Thread(tm).

The reason that "+" threads were explicitly allowed by the mods is for those occasions when people are looking for collaborative discussion around a topic, or for those occasions when people want to discuss something without the topic being threadjacked by particular known issues.

Given the relative paucity of "+" threads, and the very large number of threads in which we can argue endlessly over everything, I don't think that the existence of "+" threads is an issue.

I chose to "plus thread" the world building for gameplay discussion for that very reason and it still happened so

Grunge was still enormous though. Problem is people only remember grunge and not pop or hip hop which also has their own success that decade. I was into metal and for us it was a weird and slightly barren, though experimental, period

Just because you are a meat eater does not mean you cannot really enjoy vegetarian or vegan food. Source: am carnivore married to vegetarian/sometimes vegan.

This is aimed mostly at men. Some dudes act like enjoying a nice seitan taco will snip their manhood right off.

That is a very special case, however. I don't think the original version of the song was a particularly big Elton John hit, only the one dedicated to Diana.

Well, the appropriate remedy is to report it. The mods have stated that if people are not observing the requirements of a "+" thread, they will act.
