Is this what living too far from the Canadian border does to people?

I also agree bacon is not that great. I haven't eaten it in awhile.

How come "Bacon is just okay", which is the only opinion posted here that I disagree with, is the one getting the most votes?

I haaaated bacon long before I became a vegetarian. I never understood wtf people taste in it. It leaves a bad taste in one's mouth and the smell of it cooking it is... not appealing. Also, breakfast sausage.

I think the only bacon I ever was like, "Ok, ok, this is fine" was turkey bacon.

I don't know if this is considered even an opinion but I cannot fathom loving an animal, especially loving them "like family". My mind just cannot get there.

I feel like a monster saying this but people get super duper emotional about animals and it blows my mind. Obviously let's not hurt animals or whatever but them getting hurt or abused is no more sad to me than a human being abused.

It's entirely possible I hold such a neutral response like this because I never bonded with an animal growing up.

Agreed.

Also, here’s my bad opinion: dogs and cats fucking suck and people should stop having so many of them

Seinfeld and Game of Thrones are boring shows. I like pineapple pizza and super well done burgers. Mental health awareness posts on Facebook are annoying and unhelpful. People that think the human race should go extinct to better our world are THE WORST.

I think I'm ready to admit to myself that, outside of a handful of songs, neither The Smiths nor The Talking Heads do anything for me.

I bonded with pets like family until I had a kid--now pets just seem like... animals. It's weird. I'm sure when my son is older I'll gravitate back towards having pets again.

Jordan Peterson talks a certain amount of sense and is unfairly criticised for it.

The thing with animals for me is:

1. I've never been let down, hurt or emotionally damaged by an animal, unlike people.

2. Animals in general are innocent by nature, unlike people.

I do, however, loathe Animal Collective with every fiber of my being.
