Unpopular opinions.

When I hear Scottish voices on the radio whingeing about something, I cringe.

I can't listen to the absolute c***s on the Kaye Adams thing on BBC Scotland. Whiny fucks who see everything in a negative light. I need to listen to the classical music on Radio 3 after 10 minute of that.

Office workers have evolved a totally new language that is incomprehensible to normal people, a bit like the secret languages that demented 8 year old twins invent to communicate with each other without the adults understanding.

I disagree. Eating penguin biscuits and watering a yucca plant ain't exactly easy. It's a tough being an office worker.

As far as national anthems go, The Star-Spangled Banner is a top tune.  I love all the patriotic hand on heart nonsense, that the Americans throw in as well.

Wee gigs is where it's at, few hundred to a thousand people. Can't go wrong unless the musicians are pish.

I've always lived to the maxim that the worst live music, even in a pub, is better than the best jukebox. A philosophy which has very rarely let me down.

Les Marseillaise is my personal favourite. Followed by Italy's.

[Bully Wee Villa]

Patriotism is shite.

(Although yes, the Italian and French anthems are top tunes)

Climate change/Global warming, it's predicted effects, and our ability to control it are all hysterically overplayed.

Judging the 'correct' climate at any point in time of a 4.5 billion year old environment from the perspective of the length of a human lifetime, or even the length of modern humanity, is a ludicrous exercise. We'd be far better spending money on how to deal with and prepare for effects of any climate change that might happen, as it will, as it always has done, not on trying to keep it at a randomly determined 'correct for the rest of time' state.

Irn-Bru tastes best out of plastic bottles.

[19QOS19]

I could live without Irn Bru tbh. But cold from a glass bottle is the best way to enjoy it.

[die hard doonhamer]

Glass bottle
Tin
Straight from a plastic bottle
Poured from a big plastic bottle in to a glass

Is clearly the correct scale

Swap the last 2 around and you're spot on.

This. I'm a salesman used to my own company and I truly believe I'd kill someone if I was stuck in an office with the same people for days/weeks/months.

Irn Bru is made of sugar, bubble gum and halitosis.

I regularly fantasise about killing and/or disfiguring my colleagues in some of the most painful and humiliating ways possible. Today's fantasy involved reversing a van against the fire exit so that they couldn't escape and releasing a swarm of hornets into the office. I'd stand at the front door in a beekeepers outfit armed with a shotgun, executing any motherfucker that tried to get past me.
