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 aim to displease
I'll ask. What is a blep?
I believe they're talking about when a tongue sticks slightly out of the mouth :p
Thanks.
I assumed it was bleep misspelled, thanks for that.
I upvoted this only so more people can see how awful this opinion is
That's literally the point of this community.
You know what? I'm gonna say it. I like warhammer, even tho this is a warhammer community
I don't like the WORD blep. It's just unpleasant sounding.
Yes! Yet I love the word "boop". 🤷♀️
How do you feel about "snoot"?
I'm actually okay with that one. And I use snooty all the time.
Too close to another word by removing one of the Os lol🤢
You gotta boop the snoot
Boop is worse. Change my mind.
It is a tremendously unpleasant sounding word. It along with 'boob' make me cringe. I've no idea what Blep even means though.
It's when a cute animal sticks out its tongue a little bit. I like to see it, but I agree about the word being very unpleasant.
😛
Hello, Satan. Glad you could join us.
😛
We talking all bleps, even like tiny bacon bit cat bleps?
Pretty much, yes! Though the emoji tongue sticking out bothers me less than the real ones of cats, dogs, etc.
😛😋😛
What about cat bleps?
Nope, I don't like them.
Hmm…I see. Does any tongue exposure at all give you revulsion?
I had to think about that. I don't think so. It really seems to mostly be animals. 🤔
We need to get to the root of this.
How do you feel after experiencing these gifs?
I feel like blocking you. 😂
That's because you grew up in the times when emojis were already there. Otherwise, you would've liked them bleps.
Trust me, I did not. 😉
Finally, someone else with the same irrational dislike of them! I don't even know why this is the one emoji/reaction for me, but I can't stand it. There is nothing really wrong with it, but without ever choosing to, I cringe specifically at these (and *mlem). Of all the things to have an irrational, deep seated hatred for, at least this is harmless enough. Thank you for showing me I'm not alone in this and let this be the first and last time I rant about disliking bleps
Yes, one of us!!
That's nothing. My wife doesn't like dog kisses. I think there's something wrong with her.
She doesn't like being slimed by a face that was buried in an asshole two minutes earlier? Divorce that woman.
How dare you. Dog kisses are the best kisses.
Right if I can kick her asshole, she can kiss my lips.
I teach my dogs to give nose kisses only.
My dog is nearly 16 and has started sleeping with his tongue out due to his age. That along with him sleeping more soundly are really adorable.
Aw, I love that for you!
