Well, we have unpopular opinions [about hitman](https://www.hitmanforum.com/t/unpopular-opinions-about-hitman/422) and [other video games](https://www.hitmanforum.com/t/unpopular-opinions-about-other-games-series/9248), and a general one seems missing. Do you have an unpopular point of view say about music? celebrities? food? Feel free to express it here!

But to keep a thread on rail, There are a few things worth of considering before you post:

- Others might ask about the “why” about your opinion. You must be able to defend it with reasonable points without violence or bad language.

- [Civilized conversation is a primer](https://www.hitmanforum.com/t/civilized-conversation-a-primer/930)

- If you don’t agree with someone, it doesn’t mean you can fool/insult/offense him/her.

Let me start:  
Narcos is better than Breaking Bad.  
Beatles music doesn’t worth listening.

It’s mostly in the western countries that seem to have this issue and it’s been brought up many times by comedians.

People nowadays have a hard time separating things that are said as a joke and things that are truly offensive and disrespectful, same as how easy it is nowadays to call someone a nazi even though that person doesn’t “qualify” as one.

_Casino_ is better than _Goodfellas_.

The greatest episode of any TV series ever made is the last episode of _The Jinx_.

i agree. i think there’s a similar difference to the one between _holy grail_ and _life of brian_. the former is a collection of _very_ funny scenes, but the latter is both very funny _and_ is more focused and cohesive.

if we’re talking _very_ generally and very, _very_ basically here, folks on both the left and right think he would’ve ‘had their back’ so to speak, when - and i don’t wish to speak for him, buuuut - he may well have given both ‘groups’ both barrels.

as i recall, he hated ‘groups’ on principle.

One example:

Jokes based on races even if it’s not meant to harm/hurt anyone of the specific race. Ive seen a shitton of movies with guys taking the piss out of another race and that shit was hilarious to all parties.

Tell the same joke on the street and you’re beaten into the hospital. Same goes with jokes based on gender, age, culture and so on. People need to learn how to laugh more often and don’t take everything personal.

i’m having trouble imagining a joke ‘based on race’ where that race isn’t belittled in someway. jokes tend to require economy of language, so everything mentioned tends to factor in to either the set-up or the punchline.

what movie(s) are you thinking?

(i’m not trying to be awkward here btw)

i don’t disagree with that.

who hurt you?

They can exist, and I can give you some examples. It’s all based and depends on the society. For instance, Kurds in Iran have symbolic pants which are _wide_.  
 ![image](https://hitmanforum-v6-s3-uploads.s3.dualstack.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/original/3X/9/f/9f80cdd6dba57df4763170f58dd2779e02fd0bd8.png)

As a matter of joke, any _wide_ pair of pants is called Kurdish pants.

Or another one, (some) Lors (A race again) perform some crazy actions in their weddings/special ceremonies. Video for refrence:

[![](https://hitmanforum-v6-s3-uploads.s3.dualstack.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/original/3X/4/2/42b666fa31be113f7eea30556ef85c1dc37c7f56.jpeg "Raghseh bahal(Jedi Moves) - رقص در حد جنگ ستارگان") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0GF1KvBnE8)

So you might be said “Are you a Lor?” if you do such, with no intension to offense Lors.

my understanding of iranian culture is…

(_checks notes_)

…zero. 😄

it sounds like what you’re describing are more stereotypes than jokes; would that be fair to say…? if so, i’d say they’re a bit different from each other.

jokes are, like, a narrative form or rhetorical device that employs exaggeration and twists to specifically make people laugh, whereas stereotypes are simply a generalisation of a group of people (which could be either fairly benign or dangerously malicious) and aren’t explicitly used to entertain or make people laugh.

god. i sound so boring 😂

I don’t like Pink Floyd. I find most of their work overwrought, too long and/or just kind of pretentious. We invented punk for a reason, guys.
