Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

They are illegal in the city limits of where I live. I have a neighbor who has a years supply and randomly lets them off all year. And by randomly I mean, 2pm on a Tuesday, 4am Thursday morning, 8pm Sunday, pick a day, pick a time, spin the wheel, no one ever knows when or why this psycho does this. Immature people think blowing shit up is cool.

I have that same neighbor, and I hate them. Replace 2pm on a Tuesday with 2am, though.

Tonight it was 9:30 pm. And just one small cannon went off.

Ok, you win. Didn't have that, but it was also Thursday.

Also, based on the downvotes, maybe our neighbors are on Lemmy? haha

I think you might be correct. And they can downvote as much as they want, just stop blowing crap up.
