I think grown men wearing baseball caps for anything other than playing baseball is sad looking.

What a horrible opinion

I would be sad looking to you.

Ergo the word “unpopular” in the thread title.  You follow?

Adults cheering and screaming wildly - at campaign rallies - are idiots.  It's tailgating for politards.  And yet it's somehow foundational to getting elected.

I have never been to a campaign rally, but maybe one day I'll take one in just to observe the spectacle.  I just don't know if I want to be surrounded by thousands of those people.

Well, you're clearly blessed with a full head of hair.

Yea bro. I’ll add wearing anything slim fit or skinny jeans.

I rarely wear hats but that’s a weird thought

Also, I have a full head of hair. 

Also, I was wondering if the OP just meant baseball logo hats or any baseball style cap?  I often wear my Carhartt hats.

Award shows. The Grammys, Emmys, Oscars... It's rich and famous people giving other rich and famous people awards. Who gives a shit. I don't know why people eat that trash up every year but it always happens. 

Also reality TV.

That’s why I call it “unpopular”.  Most people don’t agree or even care.

Honestly I went a solid 10-15 years where I had no desire to wear a hat and didn't understand why people did. Lately I've had a change of heart and been mulling getting a hat.

Then yesterday I pressure washed my deck and got a sunburn on my head. Closer than ever to getting a hat now.

Oh I just thought of another one that will probably ruffle feathers: craft beers. Listening to people drone on about craft beer is vastly uninteresting and I couldn't care less. 

I think that parents shouldn't let their daughters go to school events, like prom or homecoming, looking like they are for rent. They don't need to dress in Victorian fashion, but have some sort of moderation. 

In-N-Out is incredibly overrated.

Well, it's mainly CA so really just another case of perception vs. reality.

All chain burgers pretty much suck, but the "premium" options of Inn-n-Out, Smashburger, 5 Guys and Shake Shack, etc suck just a little bit less.

I do not care about people’s junk or what they do with it between consenting parties if they want me to address them a certain way, tell me what your name is. Otherwise I will address you exactly as I perceive you.

I’m with you on the awards shows. I don’t think in my 45 years of being on this planet I have watched a single one.

My wife and I have 3 boys, they are 22/20/17.

I have told her and my parents many times “it’s a good thing we didn’t have any girls because we would have had some major arguments”.

Not just prom/homecoming either.

For instance, when my sister was in HS volleyball players basically word slightly shorter basketball shorts as their volleyball uniforms.

Now they are wearing thin nylon, barely past their cheeks, tighter than yoga pants, shorts? 

Sorry daughter of jmog (that doesn’t exist) regular gym shorts are just fine for volleyball too.

As a non-beer drinker I agree.

Even as a whiskey (mostly Scotch but I do like a good bourbon) guy hearing the REALLY into it whiskey guys talking about all the “notes” they get on ‘xyz’ whiskey is even worse than the craft beer guys.

Yeah that's the stuff I'm talking about. I'm in a group chat with folks that are beer snobs. They always go to random bars and send a picture of the menu and then discuss whatever beer they got. I guess it's cool they have common interests, but I think they sound like dipshits when they describe the "overtones".

At a certain point it's a fruitless endeavor. I work remotely so I only see names. Recently there was a new hire named John. John identified as a woman.

And remember that probably all of them are primarily interested in the buzz, everything else is window dressing.

Stuff for sure annoys me in this life, but very little about pop culture. Mostly because it usually revolves around people enjoying themselves and I could not care less about that. But, the autotune being so prevelant in music hurts my soul.

Overtones, undertones, hint of, after tones…all like corporate buzz words for beer and whiskey snobs

I want to point out that this is a fashion opinion and not a pop culture opinion.

That doesn't change the fact that it's wrong.
