Unpopular opinions

I prefer the aisle seat.  Then again, I'm not a camel by any stretch of the imagination.  But really, I prefer it so I can sometimes stretch my long legs out into the aisle, or get up whenever I want.  I get way too restless sitting still for long periods of time.

I feckin hate, really feckin hate Christy soles….

I understand what they are good for, and if you need them for that, cool.  BUT why fuck up a perfectly good pair of boots by putting a Christy on when it is not needed......?

Weird this came up today. Went arse over tit turning a corner while running after my 5 year old (he loved it) this morning and cursed the shit out of my Christy soles. Was actually wondering WHY they're so widely used? Giles, you seem to know what they're good for….well what?!

According to the Vibram website it provides stability, grip and a rugged American look, with cushioning.

@Fergz and Mcclain…see your respective points, just wondering where all this liberated and flourishing creativity is hiding?!

I like the look, but GRIP?! I must have a faulty five pairs….

The Christy sole was designed for workers who are on their feet all day (hence the cushioning). It really is kind of an orthopedic sole.

[bertoni]

But how do they actually manage to STAY on their feet? Work involving no forward, backward or sideway movement….

[mclaincausey]

Haha maybe it's for assembly line workers who stand in the same place

So we're supposed to look like crap.  Well done, America.  Well done.

I think the Black Keys are overrated.

Blasphemy

I love them, but I would say that they're overexposed. IT seems like every fucking thing that comes out involves Auerbach these days.

[bagley920]

I would say the genre they belong in, whatever you want to call it, has become overexposed

[natehate]

i would say there first couple albums were brilliant
the big come up is awesome even
after attack and release i kinda just lose interest
for me anyways

[Megatron1505]

I would say that El Camino is quite easily the stand out album, but much like Nirvanas Nevermind it will attract unwarranted criticism due to its popularity.

They wrote a couple of really good albums and one great album, and they put on a really cool live show and that is all for me.

Unpopular opinion: Arcade Fire are consistently the most innovative group in music today.

Brothers is my favourite BKs album. Think they had written most of the songs for an Ike Turner project but he died before it came  into being.
