    You know, your instance that the Majority is wrong on 80's music is probably most Hipstery thing about this thread.

    I think you mean you can smell the beverages from local independent non-commercial environmentally-friendly community-focused coffee shops, Pike!

    The Beatles were pretty average.
    Coldplay is one of the worst bands to ever exist.
    Oasis, Blur, Radiohead and any similar 90s British band should all be executed. The entire decade was a wasteland of pure sewage.
    Nobody is, has ever been, or will ever be as good as Daniel O'Donnell.
    The Lambeg Drum is a beautiful instrument.

    I mostly agree on beetles, outside of a couple above average songs, and I find most of their music pleasant.

    Yes to cold play and the other bands listed, no to the entire decade being sewage.

    I don't even remember who Daniel O'Donnel was.

    And most instruments can be beautiful if used right.

    I don't insist that, it's just an opinion.

    I should add that Men Without Hats is like the only band in this thread that I recognize. I just don't care that much about music. It's fun to listen to, and that's that.

    Eh, maybe I am just reading it in the wrong tone but some posts (especially in the gaming version of this thread) are taking the opinions very personally.
    I don't see how you could be a member since 2001, have more than 5,600 posts, and not realize that every single person here is not only prone to fits of exaggeration and hyperbole, but that if you were look up the definitions of those words you see a picture of the EOFF main forum page and nothing else.

    I also have to agree with Uncle Big Hands on the Rolling Stones. And the funniest part is, while I'd agree that Paint it Black is one of the very few good songs they have, I've heard several covers by other bands which were all a million times better.

    I also can't stand the Beatles.
    As I have stated many times before, I have a knack for reading the tone of any text based conversation in the wrong way. So again, maybe it is just me.

    Also, I am not saying I think EVERY post sounded like people were hating on each other, nor do I think the result of either thread is going to make members enemies out of one another. Just saying how I perceived things.

    I don't know, I just I don't like threads that are deliberately designed to push buttons. Like, I hate it when I am out with a group of friends and it seems all people want to do is **** with each other. It's fun in short spurts, but it gets old to me real quick.

    Sounds pretty insistent to me.

    Yes well I'm used to "unpopular opinion" threads on other sites where that's how you state an opinion? The thread states "opinion" on the title, you shouldn't have to preface every single post with THIS IS MY OPINION OKAY, that should just be there by context.

    By having your name next to the post you already tagging it as your opinion.

    (SPOILER)in my opinion

    Funny how we have to default to you're posts being opinions, yet the rest of us are defaulted to assuming we are 'insisting'.

    I can't get into classic rock for the most part. It makes me bored.

    Starting on my left with one, your number comes up, you go.

    I should probably have included an emoticon or two at the end of that post because I was just poking some fun at you and the rest of the forum Sephex.

    At first I though you were using 'you don't insist' to say you weren't hipster-ish. Turns out it was in response to my use of the word. XD

    Regardless, you are still more hipster then the rest of this thread.
