We’ve all heard this saying at least once in our life: “Opinions are like a**holes, everyone has them”. We see this play out every day whether it be an opinion about if pumpkin spice lattes are worth the hype or if that viral dress was black and blue or white and gold– it was definitely blue and black btw. What doesn’t make sense to me is why people who have ‘negative’ opinions about things, pop culture or otherwise, get a bad rap. It’s okay to not like things!! There are lots of things I don’t like: bananas, slow walkers, soy milk, and don’t even get me started on spaghetti as a pasta choice. You’re lying if you try to tell me there aren’t any things that exit in life that you hate. Not everything is sunshine and rainbows. We all have negative feelings. Maybe some of us feel negatively more often than others, but still. I’m sick of people who try to act positive about everything all the time. Sometimes, hating things is fun. You can create such strong bonds with friends over shared dislikes. I’m not a pessimistic person, but I’m a proud hater.
