Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!


How voting works:

Vote the opposite of the norm.


If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.



Guidelines:

Tag your post, if possible (not required)


  • If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
  • If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].


Rules:

1. NO POLITICS


Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.


2. Be civil.


Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...


Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.


5. No trolling.


This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.



Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

I subscribe to some pet subs to see cute pictures of cats and dogs to improve my mood and then every tenth post or so is "my poor dead cat". I hate it, I never knew your catdog and now im slightly sad that its dead. Now I have to unsubscribe from all these cute pet subs cause y'all can't not talk about how dead your pets are. Maybe join a support group or something.

I agree. For pretty much all pet memorial pics/stories.

Except for that one recently with the guy that painted his stairs but dedicated his puppers spot to him. That was freaking sweet and more than "I miss my buddy."

It was a really good work too, it looks professional. I don't know how they did it

I'd guess he masked off the area with brown paper and tape carefully. Then painted it as normal.

I would've covered it in a coat of polyurethane to preserve it. Then added the bronze plate.
