The Opposite Thread

Post the exact opposite of what you believe, on any subject.

I have stolen this idea from Tim Blair, because it generated the following comment on his site:

I think that advertising spam, particularly dodgy url's embedded in user sig's, is the coolest thing ever. We should have much more of it.

Re: The Opposite Thread

Paedophiles and other assorted kiddie-fiddlers should be honored by nations and the UN and never, ever sterilised and/or lobotomized. Also, they should not, under any circumstances, be burned at the stake. An easy, painless life should be their reward.

I can totally understand how parents of children sleep ever so soundly at night.

I am unbelievably pleased that the wife talked me into taking on a new job.

Re: The Opposite Thread

I am overjoyed to be dragged out of my bed today to cover a shift for some wonderful person, only to be told upon arrival that they had showed up after all, and I had traded a good morning's sleep for a single hour on the timesheet.

Also, good on David Gilmour for embarking on a project sure to follow in the illustrious footpath blazed by the incomparable Zee.

I just adore the fumes coming from oil-based gloss paint; my eyes and lungs never burn.

I love that I'm flying to Boston on Sunday. I can't wait to leave, and stay in a lovely extended-stay motel room with a rented Hyundai for transportation. For a whole week, it'll be like heaven.

Making it as a musician is easy as cake.

Life is terrible.

Re: The Opposite Thread

They have this really wonderful idea where you stop and pay tolls every two or three miles here in Boston; it's great to have to remember to carry around tons of cash with you, and they're kind enough to remind you to always have correct change, or you must be some kind of idiot.

I'm going to come back here lots.

Re: The Opposite Thread

KISS is still a vitally important band, completely in tune with contemporary audiences and not an insult to anyone's intelligence.

The London 2012 Olympics will be completed late but well below estimated budget. And Rio De Janeiro will be ecstatic to receive the 2012 stadium cast-offs.

Re: The Opposite Thread

Art sucks and Mark Rothko is most definitely not one of the most important artists of the 20th century.

Paying for infrastructure out-of-pocket is much better than levying taxes. I wish everything worked this way.
