Popeyes, and honestly, Chick.fil A, are both wildly over rated.

I tried the Popeyes sandwich and it's good for the price. I used to not be the biggest fan of chick-fil-a, but eventually I came around. The food seems to be very consistent, and the vegetables are fresh. When you have lettuce on the sandwich, you can actually taste the lettuce and it provides that extra bit to make the sandwich great.*

Jack in the Box ftw! Though there are none in MI. Wish we had whataburgers. Aside from proper sliders like at Brays or Bates, I think they have the best burger amongst fast food joints.
 
Whataburger is gooooood, but I haven't been there in ages.

I don't recall ever having eaten at Jack In The Box.
 
They are a more "southern" fast food joint. Of course, being a Michigander, that is pretty much most of the country for me...
But, The most northern one I have seen is in Granite City IL. Which is about as far south in IL as you can get.
Anyway, I wouldn't say anything they have is super amazing, it's more the randomness of their menu that makes them great. You can get a cheese burger, breakfast jack sandwich and a (albeit crappy) fried taco at midnight if youre so incline. They have a very diverse menu for a fast food place.

There are several Jack in the Boxes in northern Washington. Haven't been there for years though. I used to get a sourdough Jack and curly fries when down there, :D

You skipped the one in Alton, Illinois. It's further north. :P

Having lived in the exact vicinity of these towns for my entire life, I am certain that I have never seen a Jack anywhere more north than Alton though. Maybe I just haven't been on the lookout. I actually would have assumed they were nation-wide if I didn't know any better.

Apparently more nation wide than I would have presumed. Didnt expect to hear they are as far north and west as Washington.
Kolio, my ex wife is from GC. Rough little town they got there. Last time I was the Detroit lost the world series to the Cardinals. We were away Wild Country aces I was wearing a maze colored UofM hoodie. I wad shown the door in short order, escorted out yelling "I still love you Detroit." I wonder how long they save those videos for.

It has some rough patches for sure. Seemingly worse and worse in certain areas. It's sad. Steel mill is operating again though so that's a plus.
 
I'm only assuming this is unpopular due to the millions of comments on the internet saying similar things.
I prefer to watch anime in dubbed form over subbed form. I don't like having to read subtitles on a show, so if an anime has a dub; I'm more likely to watch the dub.

Same here but I guess the general reason why they don't like dubs is because they find the acting to be very awful, that the artists seemed to use their voices forcefully rather than naturally. Or that their voices don't sound the same or hilarious as the ones in the original non-English dub.

Pretty much this. Also because the soundtrack is sometimes worse in the dub.

I don't mind watching dubbed anime if the voice acting is good, but I default to watching the subbed version. I watch shows with subtitles anyway, so having to read subs doesn't bother me personally.

I wonder who's to blame for this one. Funimation and the other related studios or the actors and actresses themselves. :lol:
 
Even a skilled voice actor can only do so much to help a script that carelessly translates Japanese (media) idiosyncrasies too directly or by shoehorning them into some ill-fitting substitute cliché, or when they're simply given poor direction and the process is quick and dirty compared to the attention given to the original work.

I tend to pick English or Japanese depending upon the quality of the work, the aforementioned idiosyncrasies of the characters, and (since I'm mainly referring to Japanese videogames here, rather than anime) whether I have the time to read subtitles while keeping up with the gameplay. Or the animated action, I suppose. In other words, whichever fits better.

Unpopular opinion: "cancel culture" is not always a bad thing and can be justified in many cases.
Click to expand...

If it can be justified in many ways (supposedly) than how isn't it more of a good thing? And not just a sometimes good? Also when has complete anarchy or even directed anarchy been a good thing? There is a difference between an unpopular "opinion" and a bad "opinion" by the way.

Those generic laugh sounds in some of the comedy series.

Honestly what's the deal with them
Click to expand...
I think the psychology behind the laugh track is to make you feel less silly at laughing at something while alone. Makes you feel like you are laughing with a crowd. But, yeah, some of them are fairly obnoxious.
