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 feel that outside the memes community , no one had ever said a joke in the comments and I rarely see sarcasm here.

I thought I was enjoying the Lamington experience, but perhaps I am wrong.

Here's a joke though:

Q. How do you turn a cat in to a dog?
A. Cover it in petrol and light a match... Woof!

Q2. How do you turn it back in to a cat?
A2. Stick it in the freezer, then cut it in half with a bandsaw... Mmmeeoooooow

Apparently I shared this joke when I changed kindergartens as my "tell everyone about yourself, and tell us a funny joke you heard" introduction thing. According to the teacher I was in stitches the whole time, but did riff a little in the middle with some improv which ended up involving trees and cars and a snowman somehow.
