Nirvana was not the best grunge band of the '90s.

Wes Anderson is a sub-par director.

Heath Ledger was not the best Joker.

Polygamy should be legal.

Lost was a stupid show.

Tupac and Biggie are not the best rap artists of all time.

There are better places to live than the United States.

Overall, the presidents of my lifetime thus far have been generally well-intentioned people.

Nobody means to be "evil."

All drug use should be legalized.

Abortion should be legal.

Strawberries are disgusting.

Babies all pretty much look the same.

Abortion should be legal (from a guy who was adopted because his 15 yr old mother couldn't take care of him)

Religion is the root of 90% of all issues in the world

Sports gambling should be legal

Prostitution should be legal

Broccoli is delicious

People who don't travel (world or stateside) by choice are weird

The internet should be treated as a utility/necessity by government, and prices regulated as such (i.e. Lowered)

Columbus Day should not be a national holiday. But Election Day should be.

I think I side with all of these as well. Nice list.

Mike Tyson would knock Ali out in their primes

People without HS degrees should not be allowed to vote

No turn on red signs should be taken down

If you were to average all their work together I would probably agree it comes out to a net 'meh'. I don't think that's a fair way to look at it though. They have some incredibly brilliant songs and were studio recording pioneers. The fact they cranked out so much work in a decade is probably their downfall. When you turn out that much there's bound to be total garbage in the mix eg obla di obla da is the worst song of all time.

So is New York City.

And I agree that drugs/gambling/prostitution should be legal.

My fav player of all time. Was at the game when Barry Sanders put a move on him and he tore his ACL. Thought he was gonna be ok because on the sideline he was jogging around. He set the new standard in coming back from ACL injury as he played in the SB that season.

I don't believe that people who put so much garbage into their bodies that they overdose should be given Narcan. While there are cases of elderly people getting their prescriptions messed up, those are very few in comparison.
Let the wastes do themselves in.

I don't believe that the military should lower their standards in any way in order to let females in - such as Rangers.

The Olympics committee needs to stop adding foofoo and irrelevant "sports" into the competition while discarding time-proven favorites.

I don't think parents should let their young daughters leave the house looking like two-bit hookers. If caught knowingly letting them do so, they should be fined. (seriously, have you seen some of the homecoming outfits they are wearing?)

I don't think schools should be lax in their dress codes, either. Nothing wrong with having propriety standards. These are young people, not exactly the best gurus of smart.

Might post a few more later.

Is that what they have done? I know the PT test for females is much easier, but as for the training to become a Ranger I believe they are to put out just like the males.

Ted Williams was the greatest hitter of all time.

Most family sitcoms aren't that funny and project stereotypes. Everybody Loves Raymond is the worst of them. Every single character in that show is terrible.

The last Hobbit movie was annoyingly long and monotonous.

Read your first one as "Ted Williams was the greatest Hitler" and sat for 5 min trying to figure out what you meant by that.

A couple days ago I posted that overdoses should be punished more, but I don't really know what'd that entail. I think to just let them do themselves in is awfully insensitive, though. It's frustrating to watch the same people come into the hospital repeatedly overdosing. But I've also seen the other side of it where they fry themselves beyond repair, to all that's left is to withdraw measures and there's a room full of kids, spouse, other family members who just lost a loved one. But like I said, I don't know what else we can do.

Social media is slowly ruining America.

There should be personal finances courses in early education.

People should be able to be prescribed adderal if they need it for studying/learning purposes.

Prostitution should be legal.

Get rid of presidential debates. It celebritizes politicians. If you want to know what a candidates stance is on a particular subject, research how they've voted on it in the past.

Brokerage firms should not be allowed to sell commission based accounts. It should all be fee based.

Geico has the best commercials.

Domino's has the best pizza.

Everyone should be seeing a therapist.

Handicap parking is abused. Obese people are not "handicap" and shouldn't be allowed to park there. They're just lazy and need to walk their fatasses from car to store like the rest of us.

Homeless people should not be allowed to sit on the sidewalk and beg for money.

California is the worst state in the US.

Agreed.
What other thing in life is perfectly legal and acceptable when it is freely given away, but if it is paid for it is illegal?

I agree. You don't lower the bar so other people can join your club in the name of equality. You put the bar wherever you damn well please, and whoever can reach the bar can get in.
