Your Controversial Opinions

[Liesje]

- I support socialized health care (not ObamaCare...fully socialized health care!)
- I wonder how anyone working for health insurance companies can sleep at night
- I support gun rights but don't allow guns in my home
- I don't really give a flip who marries who as long as they are two consenting adults
- I absolutely cannot stand smoking and find it repulsive, won't be near people smoking (though my dad, sibs, and good friend all smoke so it's not like I hate them)
- I've never purchased an Apple product and can't stand the lot of them
- I'm amazed at how many people don't understand the concept of sexual harassment (FWIW this has never happened to me)

If you receive any sort of welfare or public assistance, you should have mandatory birth control and drug testing

Litterbugs should receive huge fines and be forced to spend a year of weekends picking up trash

If the sign says 15 items or less, and you have more, the cashier should be able to kick you out of the line

Pull up your freakin' pants - I really don't want to see your undies

The ironic thing is, I barely drink these days! My husband works at Sierra Nevada so we get way more free beer than we can possibly drink, and access to many other fine beverages as well. He gets PAID to drink! I barely drink because I am on some medication that alcohol is not supposed to be combined with. I will enjoy half a beer a couple times a week... and occasionally I will go crazy and drink a whole pint. I wish I could drink more, but I just can't right now.

I think that we're having "Beer Geek Night" at our house, where some of my husband's co-workers come over and we do beer tastings. Great fun, and then the bed is right down the hall.

I have found myself getting older....and I love history stuff. Stuff like ancient Rome, Greece, etc...

I hate reality shows!!! But for some reason...I watch them b/c it seems to be the only thing on

I hate the news. It's depessing.

I'm an adult woman....and I still play video games sometimes with hubby. Call of Duty, Resident Evil, etc.... LOL

I love youtube. I can figure out to do anything by watching youtube. Hairstyles, makeup, fix a broken pipe, etc....

Oh, and I love to drink some wine!!!!!!!

I have a friend that dated Judge Judy's son, not kidding! She got a sexually transmitted disease from him and he completely denied it. Wonder how Judy would have felt about that...LOL...

I'd be happy if people around here WORE properly fitted undies under their pants. I'm tired of seeing butt-crack everywhere I turn.

I hate the taste of alcohol, but love some of the creative cocktails that manage to hide it.

Politically correct isn't. On the other hand, not caring about political correctness isn't an excuse to stick your nose in everyone else's business. If it doesn't concern you and nobody asked you, keep your opinion to yourself.

CHL is a good thing. It encourages what fools I see at the range to actually learn how to use a gun. It has enough of a coolness factor that many who would have owned a gun and not bothered to learn how to use it safely, voluntarily and enthusiastically sign up for the education.

I believe in natural selection and thoroughly enjoy the Darwin awards.

Gov't, quit requiring umpteen warnings about things any person capable of reading and comprehending the warning already knows not to do. If they do it anyway, let them suffer any consequences. they shouldn't be allowed to sue anyone else for their own stupidity.

-I hate working in a tourist area, and when people tell me I should speak their language just because they are visiting here... I wish I could beat them senseless.
-I refuse to learn and use another language out of necessity. I will learn for fun, or for if I ever feel like traveling outside my country.
-When people travel they really should understand the culture they are visiting... and respect it. Don't travel somewhere just to disrespect the local residents.
-Don't like it here... Go back home!
-I HATE that jobs here (different jobs at all levels), require you to be bi-lingual (many toss your application if you're not, regardless of your experience/knowledge). I think that should be illegal.
-I am tired of people driving like complete idiots. Use your blinker, stop at stop signs, and for heavens sake learn what a 4 way stop is!!
-Foreigners should not be able to rent a car.... this alone causes a lot of accidents and I am tired of trying to figure out what they are doing in order to avoid being killed.
-I'm not asking you to speed... but going 10 under the speed limit is just ridiculous! I promise the cops will not stop you for going 40 in a 40.Go the speed limit, or get out of the way.
-School zones are only when school is in session... meaning, all other times do the normal speed limit. At 10pm on a Saturday night you should not be stomping on your breaks just because there is a school sign there.
-Laws are there for a reason... follow them.
-I hate many (not all) small dog owners and their dogs. My dogs don't run around nipping and yapping and being walked around in a stroller.... neither should yours.. size shouldn't be an excuse. It's still a dog, treat it as one!
-I really enjoy drinking and having a good time with my SO and friends... but there is never a reason for drunk driving, and those that do that are not welcomed in my home or my presence.
-I am female, and I like beer... that doesn't make me trash, or anything less then those that do not. I just know how to appreciate all different types of alcohol.
-College is far too expensive. I feel that this is a big reason most don't/can't go. If it was a bit more reasonable, I believe more would go and there would be less people struggling, as well as less crime.
-*No Politics* I believe health care and government assistance needs to change. It's not right that someone who pops out 20 kids and all of a sudden gets assistance and free health care while sitting on their butts watching movies on their 60" LED TV all day with a new car outside... while those of us who work our rears off everyday and pay lots of our hard earned money into the system get nothing. There should be drug tests and birth control in order to receive that.... as well as proof of *actively* looking for a job.
-I think employers shouldn't be allowed to treat their employees as bad as they do these days.
-I hate when people get a huge attitude and yell at cashiers or other people handling money transactions when they haven't signed their card and are asked for ID. Read the back of your card, "not authorized unless signed".... Either sign the dang card, or hand over your ID nicely... and at that point you should also thank them for checking. I wish more people would check mine!
-This world is way too censored and politically correct. In example: I'm not offended if you tell me Happy Hanukkah or any other religious holiday.... don't get mad at me for saying Merry Christmas or Happy Easter (or whatever holiday in whatever religion). I don't care what religion someone is... they should be able to wish you a happy whatever. If you don't believe in it.. smile and say thank you.. it's not going to kill you or force you to sign up for gatherings. I will not use X-mas or Happy Holidays.. or anything else... I should not be ashamed of my religion. Nor should I be afraid of getting penalized for wishing someone a happy christmas or easter. It's not hurting anyone, or harming anyone's rights. No one should have to feel that way regardless of what religion they are, or even if they have none at all.
-Thinks our government needs to run a little better. *no politics*
-I hate when people smoke and have no respect for those around them. Not everyone wants to destroy their lungs.

This list could go on and on as society has gotten ridiculous... but, that's all I can think of for now. Geez, people can be so annoying... I have animals instead.

Agreed!

I never liked New Kids On The Block as a kid when everyone else did...didn't find them dreamy at all.

[Cassidy's Mom]

I think a lot of people are bigots even if they don't admit it to themselves.

I think many people confuse opinions with facts.

I think people need to get out more.
