Here are some beliefs I hold that most people seem to disagree with:
- Best thing Mike Judge ever did? Beavis & Butt-Head. The TV show, not the movie.
- Putting lemon in glasses of water when not specifically asked to do so is totally unacceptable; restaurants that do so should be firebombed. (I didn't order lemon water! But you just ordered a firebomb.)
- How about washing your hands before going to the bathroom? If there's anything I don't want to touch with germy hands, it's my privates.
- It's stupid to be upset by the outcome of a sporting event.*
- Hillary would have lost.
- Dark chocolate is at least 100,000 times better than milk chocolate.
- Shakespeare: better on the page than on the stage.
- Sex without love: full of meaning, what are you talking about?
- District 9 was a bad movie.
- Michael Chabon is a bad writer. (Q.v.)
- Israel ≠ Judaism. (Q.v.)
- A sense of irony is indispensable. (Q.v.)
- You're not an agnostic, you're an atheist. (Q.v.)
- Firemen can be real assholes.
If you share a bed with a mogwai, he's your boyfriend.
* I didn't have any opinion at all about the World Series until getting stuck on the downtown douchebag express this morning with a crowd of idiot Yankee fans. Now I guess I root for the Mets.

Are you, in fact, my head?
I lost a lot of friends over District 9, but I won't back down. (Last time that happened, over 'Magnolia', my dad made me move to Brussels)
Do you hold that Hillary opinion because you think Americans are more sexist than racist when it comes to people in positions of authority, or for the more banal reason that she simply lacked the necessary charisma/slickness?
I'm with you on the irony one (which I don't think too many people would contest, really) and the District 9 one (liked it up until it switched formats from mock-doc to action bonanza, though even the doc part was ugly to look at).
Ben: I am, yes, in your head.
Brian: charisma, mainly—most importantly because it meant effectively zero crossover appeal.
