What Top Topics Can We All Agree On?
Disclaimer:
By "top" the OP means whatever positive attributes that word holds for the general reader, not necessarily in a competitive sense, but as in "main" or "common" or "popular. " (Please see below for disclaimer of those terms).
"We" is used in the generalist sense and is not intended to pull anyone kicking and screaming into an exercise for which they have neither the time, focus or sensibility.
"All" is used in only the limited sense that it can be applied, by anyone's definition, in reality; potentially "All for One and One for All;" not intended to be applied to those who do not wish to be considered "All" at all.
"Agree" is used as a verb with potential, not as a straitjacket with censoring.
"On" is of course, subjective, open to interpretation, as any preposition and not intended as a proposition.

Please comment on your favorites and add your suggestions:

BTW, kittens and the Simpsons rule!

20. What's with all the little red x's?
Anyway, it's clear that any list of the type you suggest would begin with "the unparalleled brilliance of gratuitous." After that? Well, if catwoman was president, she'd be Babe-raham Lincoln.

21. Nothing.
Dolphins are vicious murderous predators, those cookies are full of trans-fat and high fructose corn syrup, strawberries require excessive amounts of fertilizer and are often picked by migrant workers who never see profits consummate with their labor, flowers give me horrible allergies which were invented by Big Pharma, kittens - well, you know what they say about kittens. That chocolate probably isn't fair-trade, watching the Simpsons means supporting Fox, rainbows are caused by chemtrails, that galaxy photo was taken by NASA and we should be using that money to feed homeless people, Johnny Depp is rich and should use his money to feed homeless people instead of buying cars and drugs, acoustic guitar makers are prejudiced against people with small hands, and black and white photography is pretentious bullshit.

That they are the most corrupt and evil despicable political party in the history of planet earth?


Disclaimer: I have little knowledge earth history prior to 2000 BC but I have heard from a friend of a friend that some people say Republicans have already blown up the world three times going back several hundred million years..

Do the cookies have nuts in them?

Are the strawberries organic?

Were the kittens adopted from a shelter?

Are those wildflowers endangered or threatened?

Is the dolphin in captivity?

See, there's plenty to complain about. :hide:
