Bad opinions • Page 999

i like turnstile

 

it's good when bands you love rip you off because it's fun to hate the bands you love

 

merch is cringe

 

this is true

 

Imagine having any emotional connection to music. Pathetic. Get a grip.

 

caring is creepy

 

Turnstile is so mid

 

using the term "mid" automatically flags to me that there's no reason to read any opinions from you

 

it’s just a tired opinion at this point, at least say something new and original.

 

well at least the thread is being used for its intended purpose i guess

 

Oh are we having a discussion about bad turnstile opinions?

Let me go dig up my old shitpost…

 

@Lori, thoughts?

 

Yeah I’m the same with “meh” lol

I know that’s not your question but I can relate to the premise.

 

It is truly the worst.

 

Any time someone around my age tries to use youth speak, I roll my eyes. It is always the worst when a new teacher comes in trying to fit in. If you’re out of college (age) cut it out

 

Meh.

 

why

 

Mid makes me mad because my students use it constantly and cannot back up their opinions. “Mid” to them also fluctuates meaning. It can mean “bad”, “terrible”, “boring”, “okay”, “fine”, “kinda good”. It does not make sense

 

I’ve got no problem with mid when I feel like it’s used in a way that accurately reflects the implication that X thing is middle of the pack. This site’s version of that typically looks like “is just fine” lol. But I roll my eyes when it’s clear the person is using mid as a stand in for some version of “bad”

Unfortunately it’s hard to hear that intent on the internet, so unless it’s a person I know (or at the very least trust in good faith, like vein.ftm) I just assume the worst

 

because 90% of the time it's just used as a placeholder word for someone who doesn't really want to engage with anything meaningful. It's the antithesis of an actual opinion

 

i guess i'm just not hearing it enough to feel that strongly about it bc complaining about it just sounds like complaining about slang or 'wrong' grammar to me

 

We all turn into our parents/teachers eventually. Can only imagine the dumb shit I said as a kid that drove the adults nuts. Realize I was in the generation that used the word “gay” for anything remotely lame or boring. I’ll take mid all day over that.

 

it's waaaaaaaaaaay popular/extremely common with the kids, it's worse than just new slang to me, because it actually means nothing in reality

 

Come to the video game thread.
Jk don’t.
