Very sad that this is an unpopular opinion.
Ignorance sucks.

The Patriarchy of Garry. The Garryarchy.

Antisemitism as well.
Though I defend every sexuality (not philia), I don't think Asexuality is actually a thing. I feel like they're just people with incredibly low sex drives.
I know this is a dumb opinion, but I will always think it, while at the same time I totally defend people's rights to be asexual.
If someone has no sex drive, why wouldn't they be considered asexual?
The phrase "You're just easily entertained" makes no sense as an insult.
It's bad that it's easy for people to make me smile?
I think that Microsoft is actually a good company, and I think the Xbox One is okay. Ah Sony Fanboys, the most vocal of all the Fanboys, as it always seem wherever I go there is always one screaming in my ear about how good the Playstation is.

Asexuality is like an addon to most sexualities, which is why I see most people who are asexual are also homo/hetero/etc.-romantic.
Sex drive is simply a chemical imbalance, rather than an actual facet of themselves.
You could theoretically make someone from asexual to hetero/homo/etc-sexual with an increase sex drive, which for me, invalidates it.
This is unlike "changing the gay/straight" in someone because that is an ingrained part of their personality with a HUGE number of factors.

I'd say below okay. But he's not bad enough for me to go hang out with the "wE MUST OUST THIS GAY WEED SOCIALIST NAZI COMMIE MUSLIM FROM OFFICE" crowd.

I don't understand why people want to defend such a shitty religion. Just because lots of people that follow Islam don't follow the extreme things it says in it's holy book doesn't change the fact that it has that stuff in there, and encourages shit like [url=http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1392286&p=44763583&viewfull=1#post44763583]sexism, violence, etc[/url].
But of course you'll just ignore that, give me boxes, and say I'm a racist for not respecting such a religion.
Caring about your clothes is cool.
People who say things like "Why spend extra money on those jeans when I can get Wranglers from walmart for $10" don't know what they're talking about (unless it's a matter of being able to afford stuff)

Isn't asexuality literally not having a sex? IE not needing a partner to reproduce and instead doing it, well, asexually.
That doesn't seem the same as not having a sex drive

Not in terms of like, the sexuality spectrum, LGBTQ stuff. Asexuality is not being sexually attracted to any gender.
Honestly, this opinion is a dumb opinion, and I recognize it's dumb, but I can't get my mind out of thinking that it just isn't really a thing.

Biologically, yes, but when you're talking about a preference like being gay or bisexual, Asexuality is the absence of any sexual attraction towards others.

Honestly, the bible does as well, the shitty thing is majorly islamic countries just haven't evolved to keep up with the rest of the world.
A huge contributing factor is honestly that the first major ideological revolution (The American Revolution) happened in a christian country way far away from any islamic country.
They'll catch up in time.
Only about 1/10th of Saturday Night Lives skits are funny. That includes everything from the 90's as well.
The worst part is the bad ones go on for the longest.

Jeans are jeans. They all come from the same factories in China anyway.

Islamophobia stretches beyond the religion; it's when women are harassed for wearing niqabs/hijabs, it's when Muslims are judged to be terrorists based on their religion or skin colour, it's when the idea of halal meat is perceived to be cultural invasion. When Muslims can't live their own, peaceful lives without feeling threatened, that's Islamophobia.

To me, asexuality will always mean "able to reproduce using oneself's genes only". None of that fruity Tumblr "i don't want to fuck anyone" junk.

I think people who seriously believe it's a good idea to spend $20 or more on a [b]single[/b] article of clothing should be forced to wear tattered rags for a month. Clothes shouldn't be that expensive.

So you don't spend more than $20 on any piece of clothing? Sounds like you're already wearing rags.
But seriously, why do you care what other people do with their money?
kids under a certain age/height should be banned from all public places. Here's why:
1. Volume
2. It's illegal to punch them even if they're being insufferable shitheads
3. They stink
4. Tripping hazard

That was seriously rude and uncalled for. You can find plenty of nice looking clothes for under $20 but when I can go to a store and find a hoodie for $70, that's a bit ridiculous, I can feed myself for a week on that. Or someone that spends $50 on a pair of jeans, or $200 on some shoes. I can understand wanting to look nice, but there are ways to do it without devoting your life savings to it. Besides, why do YOU care?
Alright, I admit that was an asshole-thing for me to say and I'm sorry. But not everyone buys their clothing for pure functionality.
Goodwill's a great place to go clothes shopping. A shirt would only cost a few dollars.

It's just so wasteful to me. There are so many more important things in life than buying the "latest expensive trendy pop culture le may may xD" clothes.

Well, I do appreciate that. I've spent most of my life dealing with what I get, so I've gotten used to not caring about having the latest and greatest stuff.

Personally, being easily entertained should be considered a benefit of one's personality. It means that you're able to put things aside and just be happy c:
Football / soccer is shit and I judge you if you like it.
Borderlands 2 is repetitive and boring once you know the whole game in and out, even with friends.
War of Roses has an awful blocking mechanic and the game itself is unbalanced, prices of things are jokes.
Every Call of Duty game online is really repetitive and delivers very basic multiplayer freedom.
Killing Floor isn't as fun as it was a year ago.
Sleeping Dogs was a fantastic expedience with some minor animation and other flaws.
[sp]Titanfall[/sp] is overrated / hyped. Delivers nothing too new to the table besides mechs on an FPS scale, parkour and jet packs with some minor cool abilities on your mech.
