      I like that he refers to himself in 3rd person because it makes his posts/writing fun & it shows he doesn't take himself 2 seriously, hahahahaha

      On the contrary, my experience with people who refer to themselves in the third person is one of deluded, egotists with a messiah complex. It is funny though.

                  "Classic" rock is horrible.  Businesses should never, ever play it, unless they are actively trying to drive customers away.

                  To quote Matt Farrell from Live Free Or Die Hard, "Just because it's old doesn't mean it's classic.  What sucked then still sucks now."

                    But surely there are different types of classic rock?  The Rolling Stones "I'ts only Rock n Roll (But I Like It)" = good, anything by U2, not so good.

                      Nope.  Hate it all.

                      And while I'm on the subject, if we define popular by sales totals, the Music thread is one long unpopular opinion.

                        @Chris - I'm with you. I can appreciate the classic rock that pushed us where we are now (which is not very good, mind  you), but I wouldn't choose to listen to it if I had the choice.

                        Oh, and while we are at it…Sweet Home Alabama, Freebird, Highway to Hell, anything Beatles, and Wagon Wheel (not classic, but oh so annoying) should be outlawed from every radio station, Cover Band and DJ Set forever.

                        For me, "Rock" didn't start until Johnny Rotten picked up a mic and ended when Dimebag Daryl was killed.

                          I'd personally reserve my hate for Adele and Sam Smith than ANY classic rock.

                              I dislike that hipster vibe Japanese denim has in SF. I.e I dont like Self Edge.

                                  Could you quantify your dislike? Genuinely interested as I think they have done great things for denim retail in the west.

                                  Made in England, clothed in Japan, fed in America and drunk in Belgium !

                                    from what I've seen over the last 8 or so years following this stuff, SE has taken the japanese denim market and made it fit into every day, wearable american clothing. Not everyone wants to pay $1,000 for jeans and a shirt that make them look like a 1880s miner, but on the other hand, some people do and luckily for us, these companies produce garments that can be worn both ways.

                                    I like that SE stocks items that can be worn heritage style, or with a modern twist.  And in my eyes, any time we can build more business for japanese companies so they can keep pushing the boundaries of fabrics creation and garment construction while following a strong ethos of humanitarianism (i know this is not EVERY japanese company, but most seem to follow the safe working conditions, living wages ideal) I believe it is for the greater good.

                                    That's just my opinion, and for some people, that may be unpopular haha

                                          surely hipster also covers kid cudie & childish gambino, but I have no idea on the term at all, hahahahaha

                                            My in person experiences with Self Edge have been pretty consistent: friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff, kinda douchey customers.
