It is sometimes acceptable to have strong opinions on things.

    Default It is sometimes acceptable to have strong opinions on things.

    These things are things that you actually know shit about.

    Some people have strong opinions about the most ridiculous things that are either inconsequential, impossible to prove either way (like the metaphysical), or that they barely know shit about.

    I feel strongly about this and have thought about this a lot so I'm pretty much an expert in the field of having strong opinions on things.

    I disagree. It is never acceptable to have a strong opinion on anything. I feel very strongly about this.

    I strongly feel that opinions can be like assholes. Like assholes with opinions.

    Some of my very strong opinions today are vastly different then 5, 10 etc.. years ago. New insight and new knowledge can vastly transform opinions. VASTLY

    You can change an idea, changing a belief is trickier-Rufus (Chris Rock) Dogma

    Also this is why Kevin Smith is awesome

    himself fucker.
    No. It is never acceptable to sometimes do or have anything. This is a world of certainties and absolutes, so you pick a side or you die. You best either always have strong opinions or never have them, if you know what's good for you.

    I find that to worry about such things as "acceptable" is ludicrous to begin with. Worrying about acceptability means that you have lost your mind to FEAR of ridicule. "Fear is the mind killer"

    When ever I postulate an idea/theory to my friends I always put up an exclaimer that this is not necessarily my view, but here is something that I find which is fucked up if true.

    In my years I find it more and more impossible to have any correct understanding of anything. That's also, because the world view that I keep finding is vastly different then the normal. I hold that my views and opinions are shaped by my experiences, and my daily brainwashing. Some of this brainwashing is done deliberately unto myself which is another thing most people do to hold their views intact. (alternative is insanity)

    -Good luck if you understand what I'm trying to say

    I feel very strongly that people are foolish to waste so much money on "high quality" drinks like scotch or whatever. I mean, you can buy the same product for a fraction of the price and it tastes fine if you store it in the freezer.

    Anyone who claims they can tell the difference doesn't know their scotches.

    That's assuming Gala is driving forward.

    Gala might be in reverse.

    At a low enough temperature, anything tastes fine.

    Look at that heart upside-down and tell me what you see.

    Homo is the only explanation.

    That is an outstanding question. I'm not sure. It's not out of the realm of possibility.

    As an aside, you've given me an amazing idea for an internet-based business opportunity. Inuit pron.

    After exhaustive research, I can confirm that there is, in fact, no eskimo pron on the tubes. That and vampire secretary porn. These are the two gaps in the Internet.

    but what about when you are factually correct, and someone else has an opinion who is wrong?
