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'm convinced people are just pretending to enjoy hot coffee because they think it makes them cool to consume scalding things, there are so many beverages and foods i have to wait five minutes to start consuming because i don't enjoy giving myself actual burn injuries.
I'm convinced that's why people drink coffee at all. It's burnt water. There's no way people actually enjoy the taste
coffee can definitely taste good if you don't literally burn it (and ideally actually brew it to bring out the flavours you enjoy), like most people do. I think with coffee and tea a large reason people drink it is literally just for the caffeine, and they're too impatient and don't want to look like wusses so they just cauterize their tastebuds with the scalding beverage until they taste nothing anymore.
Literally all coffee tastes exactly the same
