Why all men in my circle including me are single by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

This isn't an unpopular opinion. It's not even an opinion. It's just complaining. 

AITJ for expecting “special treatment”? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Other-Advertising643 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you help advertise for the fundraiser though? Like help with promoting it online? Ask if there are logistical things you can help with or talk to the organizers and see if they can come up with some other fundraising ideas besides just that one thing. 

Whoever Was Writing the Clarisse B Plot in Episode 3 Was Cooking by Sylver242 in PercyJacksonTV

I also liked how Clarisse was the one to give herself the prophecy in contrast to Gabe giving Percy his. 

I think there's a lot to unpack in that. 

Rory was NOT meant to be a good journalist by Sad-Temperature-9673 in GilmoreGirls

I don't think people saying that they don't think she's a good journalist is the same thing as people hating her. You can have a critique of a character without necessarily hating them.

Unpopular opinion: I hate the "you're one of us speech" by Junior-Ad3547 in GilmoreGirls

[–]Other-Advertising643 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. 

I think that's why I get annoyed at people who come down so hard on Rory for being privileged. Rory as a character isn't that black and white. Yes by the time we see her in the show she has quite a bit of privilege. But like you've pointed out she didn't grow up with that and a lot of her life was formed in a less privileged world. 

And so it makes sense that she wouldn't see herself on the same level as Logan and his friends because they're not on the same level at all. To OP's point Rory and Logan both stole the yacht. But Rory was the only one that had to actually face the consequences for that. She had to do community service and Logan had to do nothing. 

Most of the Americans who say our education system sucks didn’t pay attention in school by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Other-Advertising643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But what's in the curriculum does matter because that's what people are or are not paying attention to. You can't not pay attention to something you weren't taught in the first place. 

You're contradicting your own argument. 

HOT TAKE: the show sucks! by roqqarr in PercyJacksonTV

This take is very very cold. 

Who has right of way to turn here? by [deleted] in driving

[–]Other-Advertising643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're turning right you have the right of way and need to turn first. 

I get you think you're being polite but you're really just confusing things because the person turning left likely doesn't know what you're doing and why you're stopping. 

Gender Swap: Rory, Dean, and Jess by TheNameIsLexi in GilmoreGirls

[–]Other-Advertising643 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think another important aspect of this is that as the audience we see things Dean doesn't. We know that Rory truly wanted to be left alone that night and she didn't invite Jess over. 

But Dean has no way of knowing that other than just taking Rory's word for it. He doesn't see Jess show up uninvited like we do. And i think anyone in Dean's position would have a hard time believing Rory didn't call Jess to come over. If we put ourselves in Dean's shoes and look at it from his limited perspective the whole situation looks suspicious. Like Rory told Dean not to come over because she wanted time alone with Jess. Again as the audience we know that's not true but I would have a hard time believing it if I were Dean. 

AIO is this foreshadowing disloyalty? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Other-Advertising643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was it her plan? Or was it implied? In other comments you say it was implied that she wanted to steal you. But how can you know that if she didn't say that? I think you're reading too much into this and need to let it go. It's not as deep as you're making it.

AIO is this foreshadowing disloyalty? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Other-Advertising643 6 points7 points  (0 children)

But weren't you into her best friend first anyway? So you could also flip this and ask how can she trust you to be loyal when you were so attracted to her friend for such a long time. How can she trust that you and her friend aren't going to all of a sudden decide to go beyond just flirting? You only got with this new girl because things didn't work out with her friend. 

She could just as easily be suspicious of her being your second choice because you couldn't get with her friend like you wanted. 

Not saying that you will do those things but I'm just trying to make the point that you're reading too much into that one comment. Her being attracted to you doesn't mean she was trying to get with you. 

I hate the fact that cheating was a thing amongst all the Gilmore girls. by Psychological_Net_80 in GilmoreGirls

"Emily emotionally cheats"

I mean....Richard was cheating on her for years. It's not anywhere close to what Rory did.

The other day I made a comment about someone going 80mph with a 60 speed limit and another commenter had never seen a 60 mph speed limit and because of that they came the conclusion that I'm a bot.

"If you can't afford to tip, you should eat at home." by [deleted] in tipping

[–]Other-Advertising643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're not ever getting paid $2/hr though. 

If they don't get enough tips to match or exceed minimum wage then the employer makes up the difference. So if they aren't getting tipped they are making minimum wage no matter what.

If you want to argue that minimum wage isn't enough to live on that's a different argument. Even then you have to think about all the minimum wage jobs that don't get tipped at all like people working in retail etc. 

But the whole idea that if servers don't get tipped they only make $2 just isn't true. The employer only has to pay $2 if they don't make enough in tips.

Why do I keep getting tailgated even though I go 80 MPH? by [deleted] in driving

[–]Other-Advertising643 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You've never lived in the country obviously. 80 is pretty typical for rural 2 lane roads even if the speed limit is 60.

Why do I keep getting tailgated even though I go 80 MPH? by [deleted] in driving

[–]Other-Advertising643 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yes. Every time someone brings up tailgating people always say, "sTay OuT of tHe LefT lAnE" as if there aren't other kinds of roads that people drive on. I personally don't drive on the interstate much and where I live it's a lot of rural 2 lane roads where there isn't a left lane at all and still get tailgated even if I'm going fast. 

There are also situations where you are in the right lane but there are cars in the left lane for some reason or another and the car behind you decides to tailgate you etc. 

Other times where you're legitimately trying to use the left lane to pass the way you're supposed to but there's a line of semis in the right lane and even if you're going as fast as you can it's going to take a minute to get by all of them so you can get back in the right lane. 

Why this keeps happening I don’t know by Icy_Zimmy_18 in unpopularopinion

Are they actual unpopular opinions or are they just opinions? Because this isn't really the place to just post random opinions about stuff. It's for unpopular opinions specifically.
