I don't like that there's rules that govern what I wear. I use my clothes to express myself and claim an identity... Martinez

I prefer Hot Cheetos, not Takis.

Takis are gross, they get worse spicy as I get closer to finishing the bag... Martinez

all waters are the same

It does not matter, if you get Dasani, or Kirkland signature, waters are made equal, and the truth is that they all taste equal, and we should not discriminate.

And arguments for the belief in the metaphysical are fundamentally flawed. I intend to give an example of this with Pascal’s wager and the subsequent paradigm of Pascal’s mugging.

I hate golf and most other sports

2024-03-21 18:26:53 UTC

Golf is super annoying old white rich man take their little cars so drive around a fenced off peace of beautiful land to slightly kick a small ball into a hole. It doesn’t seem entertaining or interesting at all and I honestly feel this way about a lot of other sports but this one the most. Magdaline

Love = Hate. When you love something you will protect it and cherish it. If something harms it you will hate what has harmed it. Or the thing you that you love harms. You can end up hating that. Where there is love, there is hate.

hot dogs are sandwiches

2024-03-21 19:57:59 UTC

the dictionary defines a sandwich as two pieces of bread typically with meat, cheese, or other components. you can identify a hot dog with this same criteria. therefore a hot dog is a sandwich.

(Mario enriquez) pancakes are better than waffles

2024-03-25 19:06:07 UTC

While being very similar, pancakes are better for being more fluffy and having a better texture, plus the combinations with fruit and savory sauces are pretty high

The LGBTQ+ community will never have a "normal" high school experience and it's not talked about

2024-03-25 19:57:11 UTC

As members of the LGBTQ+ community, we lose the chance at a high school experience by being forced to mature. The lost chance at innocent teenage love, high school dates, even heartbreak is detrimental to how we mature as adults.

Attack on titan is the best anime oat

2024-03-25 19:57:53 UTC

Idc what yall say aot is the greatest anime oat. In js the matter of 4 szns it negs any anime ive watched. The foreshadowing in aot is so thought provoking, and so is the thougjt and effort put into it. The anime is one of the best ive seen and the charecters and development is beautiful. The plot twist in the show haves you on your feet when it happens this show does not dissapoint one bit. If yall think other wise imma let the anime speak for itself ong. Watch it and itll change yall mind.

You can’t expect people to love you if you don’t love you.

2024-03-25 19:58:35 UTC

Everyone gets so caught up on how other people perceive them. Wanting to be seen is natural human nature, but you can’t be loved if you don’t love yourself. At the core of everything the way you view yourself if the way others view you.

saying sorry doesnt fix everything

2024-03-25 19:58:46 UTC

sorry is always a good step when youve done something wrong, but it doesn't mean anything unless you actually change behavior. too many people say sorry and think thats it, that theres no reason for you to be mad at them afterwards. but unless youve actually proven to be doing better or that youre trying to fix it, it means nothing

Orange Juice is disgusting

2024-03-25 19:59:01 UTC

It's sweet, it's healthy, it's colorful. Amazing, right? No. It's tart. Disgustingly tart. And bitter. How do people like this? There's apple juice as an alternative. Hell, there's expired milk as a better tasting alternative. Anyone who says that they like the taste of orange juice is lying to themselves, and I pity them. Now Sunny D however... That's where it's at.

Juices

2024-03-26 02:40:49 UTC

Ocean spray is hands down the best juice brand ever.

Hawaiian Punch is alright but ocean spray is just too good. They’ve come up with so many flavors that i couldn’t even fathom and i’m rarely disappointed. If i could only drink one thing other than water it would be any ocean spray juice. This topic in my experience is very one side of the other i’ve never met people that are in the middle everyone likes ocean spray or any other brand.

AI Art is destroying traditional and digital art :(

2024-03-26 17:47:24 UTC

Ever since the invention of AI in our society, it has slowly improved yet has damaged our lives in every way possible. To technology and art, we should let it be known that AI is severely harming the human being.

I think the same about people who like the color pink as well but i love purple sooo.

From the hair to some of my clothes, I own at least one thing that’s purple and I want to buy more purple stuff. I’ve seen purple people and there whole house is just a purple museum and I would love to put as much purple decor in my future house or apartment as possible.😍

hot stuff is better than sweet stuff

2024-03-26 18:07:32 UTC

the future after high school

2025-03-20 19:47:30 UTC

when we walk on the big stage on graduation day, we feel proud that we finished the final year of our studying about math, reading, science, and writing. Now we're stuck on the confusion on what do we do after high school is over? The answer to that is everyone can choose their path like some could go to college, start working, or just relax after all of the stress from school. It's not one idea to tell everyone what to do after high school, its everyone idea they might have dream they want to achieve whether its to become a famous actor, good athlete, or want to get more education it's their dream and we can't change their idea because one of those idea could help for a better future

(Intentional) Procreation is inherently unethical & inconsiderate

illicitpentagram — 2025-03-22 02:44:59 UTC

In the last century, the Earth's human population has grown exponentially (currently, we have four times as many people as we did 100 years ago, & we're poised to hit about ten billion by 2050...) As terrifying as this should be, the general public doesn't seem to register it as an issue that requires immediate action or any action at all. Like many problems we face now, we tend to just read a headline or two, say to ourselves, "My, that's awful!" & resume life as we've been programmed to since the beginning. For whatever reason (I personally see it as a failure of the education system, but that's another can of worms) we almost never respond with, "How can I help?" Anyway, that was all a long-winded way to get to my point: There is absolutely NO issue humanity faces right now which can be solved or even improved upon by giving birth to more humans. We live in an incredibly unstable time, socially, politically, environmentally, et cetera... & why anybody would want to foist these burdens onto a child simply to boast that a slightly altered replica of their DNA made it a couple more times around the sun is beyond me. Morally & even practically, the costs of reproducing outweigh the benefits. When we spoke of mutually-assured destruction during the Cold War, nobody could conceive (pun intended?) of the idea that it wouldn't be bombs nor missiles that turned this once-lush planet into a hellish wasteland, but rather our species' own selfishness, inflated ego, & overconsumption. I'll stop here for now.

how does other peoples self expression subconsciously influence what you think of them?

2025-03-23 05:09:28 UTC

it’s easy to say i don’t judge a “book”( person) by its cover but it’s in our nature to have opinions of people from the second we meet them.

does how someone looks/ represents/ acts draw you away from them or closer to them? do you find yourself having only a few types of people as friends/ partners because of the ideas you have in your head about “different” people or people who you think couldn’t possibly understand you because they’re different looking or whatever it may be

but sometimes we find ourselves becoming closer to people we never thought we would but we then realize everyone is human, everyone is breathing the same air, walking through the same school/ city/state and we’re all far more similar then we could ever have imagined. so i guess what im saying is do you feel connected and do you still have the idea you originally had of them in your head with people you first judged and then realized they’re a lot like you?

Everyone is important

2025-03-23 21:47:54 UTC

Everyone is important no matter where they're from or what they look like. I care about everyone as much as they do about their friends, family, and everyone else, even if they don't care or just don't show it. A fact to point out is that some wars in Europe are going on and innocent people are dying including soldiers and families where they shouldn't be. An example of this is that should we as America care about only everyone in this country or everyone in the whole world?

Fashion shouldn’t be gendered

2025-03-24 03:08:58 UTC

Fashion is something that shouldn’t be gendered because it’s a form of self expression and I find it dumb that our society has made it that boys must wear one thing and girls should wear another. Many cultures around the world have been wearing all types of clothing styles no matter the gender.

Life’s better without social media

2025-03-25 14:53:54 UTC

It all starts when you’re a little kid and yearn to have a phone (at least in this day & age) Then, you finally get one and yearn to have social media. Then, you finally get it and yearn to have fame. Then, you realize that’s a silly idea, but you’re now stuck in this conundrum of the social media world. Your whole being is wrapped around the apps and now you’re not in control anymore. You don’t know what is fake what is real? You just live in a made up world and accept it. Life passes by (QUICK) and before you know it you could’ve done so much stuff if it wasn’t for the phones. You start to have regrets and, well ultimately, there’s nothing you could do because you can’t go back in time. (So just delete those apps that are restricting you from living life)

Baseball is the hardest sport

2025-03-25 17:23:37 UTC

Baseball may not be the most physical sport or most conditioned sport but there are many reasons why it is. One reason is that in professional levels and even college levels people can throw a baseball at 90 to 105 MPH accurately. Also pitches can throw many different types of pitches that curve and break all around making the hitter extremely confused and not ready for the next pitch. When a hitter takes a at bat the mental approach is very hard especially when you are doing bad it can really get to your head and makes it 10x harder to hit the ball. When you play defense you have to run and dive to make plays in a field that spands more than 400 feet, outfielders especially have it hard because they have to run a extremely long distance to get to the ball and even sometimes dive and when they miss it the play does not stop and the runner can keep going. -Zygee Young

Politics

2025-04-04 06:56:57 UTC

I always hear people saying that “politics shouldn’t matter in a friendship” and I couldn’t disagree more. Your politics show your morality as a human and are a representation of the values you align with. If someone doesn’t think that other human beings should have rights than I am under no obligation to ignore then and just be “best friends” or something, especially because justice and equality are both so important to my own values.

God is not real

2026-03-30 19:02:58 UTC

The belief of a god to me seems strange because how can someone all good and all powerful let terrible things happen all over the world to the people he is supposed to love. Some have argued free will but why create free will if you are all knowing, knowing that it would lead to pain and suffering. I believe either god is not real, or he is not good.
