    @antipodean

    He certainly comes across at times like an asshole but that isn’t exactly an exclusive club

    He has definitely written some bangers and is a monumental influence on music of the last 50 years
    My unpopular opinion on Dylan is he’s a better melody writer than lyricist. Certainly for the last 40 years his lyrics have been a bit twee

    Nobel prize. Yeah Nah

    @MN5 said in The hot takes and unpopular opinions:

    Heath Ledger is a massively overrated actor.

    Classic case of someone dying young and being lauded far beyond his actual talent and achievements.

    I agree he's massively overrated, but his performance in Batman #206 was pretty damn good and different to all his other roles.

    That last point being a key element of what I define as a good actor; different but believable characters. The opposite of which is Owen Wilson; his acting consists of repeating lines.

    I’d rate him way behind Tom Hardy as Bane.

    What did he do except that weird tongue thing ?

    Tom Hardy's Bane had the most ridiculous voice. He grows up (or at least spends two decades or more) in a pit in Rajasthan India with a machine strapped to his face and sounds like a gay Soho bartender?

    Comprehension not always my strong point.

    Is this a hot take or an unpopular opinion?

    99 out of 100 union fans will say that union is better than league

    Reasons offered up

    Smarter players
    More skilful
    Less Bogan than league

    Having watched a month of both, the smarter players who are letting the ball do the work reside in league

    Bob Dylan sucks.

    I think his singing sucks, but he can write a good song if other people sing it.

    I’m still waiting to hear one.

    Avocado is ridiculously overrated.

    Expensive for what it is and bland as fuck.

    Such a “wank” breakfast too.

    I had some with my burger and had to vent. The meat patty, peppers, capsicum, lettuce, hot sauce and mayo were so much better.

    I think it just takes away the flavour of everything else you're eating while not adding anything.

    Maybe it's just that you fluffybunnies can't cook and don't know how to use ingredients

    They’ve been $2 each here for the last year despite floods and inflation. Seem like a bargain to me.

    Certainly not packed with flavour, but wicked in salads , on toast with lemon juice or Vegemite (yeah, with Vegemite bitches)

    Terrible take!

    @voodoo yeah they're about 80p for ripe large ones here. Typically at least one breakfast a weekend on toasted home made chilli cheese bread, occasionally throw in some capsicum and/or a poached egg, with chilli and lime dressing.

    Capsicum? On a burger?

    Your view on avo is immediately discredited.

    There is a roadside stall on the way home from work selling Avos...they are a good addition to dishes because they aren't overpowering, they are versatile, and full of goodness.

    However they are massively seasonal and the price gets ridiculous, although places like the roadside stall are much better than supermarkets in quality and price.
