Let's see...I don't exactly have a lot of unpopular opinions, but let me try listing some that I think are pretty unpopular. (There's a lot of music ones on here...oof.)
- Old music (around 70's-90's) and classical music are overrated. A lot of people put emphasis on just because they're old, they're classic and therefore good. Nope.
- On that same vein, why are we glorifying the lives of singers and bands who basically practically winged their entire career with booze, girls, and drugs and then proceed to turn around and shame modern artists who do the same thing?
- Liking mainstream things genuinely is not something to be shamed for. If you like Despacito unironically, it doesn't make your taste any less valid.
- Genuinely liking idols is not bad. You're not any less for liking K-Pop or J-Pop.
- Country music is not as bad as everyone makes it seem. I've seen certain music teachers (at least in writing) going "Don't you dare sing anything country! Get out of my class if you do!" and I've never understood it nor liked it.
- The standards on whether a piece of media is "good" or not are heavily Eurocentric. I've seen bands of other nationalities get hated on just because they don't sound like bands from the US or the UK when their sound is perfectly valid.
- Injecting religion into a perfectly valid piece of media will kill my enjoyment for it 90% of the time.
- "I'm not like (insert other person or other girls/boys here)" is not a personality quirk nor an excuse and should not be the basis of your entire attempt at trying to woo someone. You could be different from a certain person, sure, but what if you're even worse than them? Give me an actual personality to go off on and maybe I'll find something to be attracted to.
- Wanting things to just fall into your hands if you whine enough anime-style is not a valid way of life. You have to actually take steps in order for you to get something.
- Acting like a "rough and tough, edgy, honest" person doesn't make you badass, it just makes you a prick. And no, being a prick doesn't attract anyone.
Oh, and my most unpopular opinion yet.
Cats, uncanny valley aside, was not that bad.

- How dare you. XD Perfect segway into this though: I do not like the Sinnoh games because the only new gimmick they brought me was poffin making. When it comes to the Gen IV games, I'll take HGSS over DPPt any day if only because it has a Kanto post-game and generally runs even a little bit faster than the Sinnoh games.Johto is the worst region and set of Pokemon games. Unova is the best.
