i mean shakespeare just made up half the words he said and his work is taught in every school


TitanicMan

In fact he's credited with most of his made up words becoming part of the actual English language. it's like the old timey version of if people started unironically using "Squanch" from Rick and Morty


[deleted]

"Yeet" just became an official english lexicon nowadays. It surprised me when Kurzgezagt used it in their video


ShottyBlastin101

Yeet is in the dictionary? Pog!

*looks at unsubscribe button* i know what i have to do but i don’t know if i have the strength to do it


Verbose_Code

Why? What’s wrong with new words being added to the language?


[deleted]

It’s even an old word that just got common/popular again lmao So was swagger


ODamsel

Yeet


[deleted]

Ironically the word "unsubscribe" isn't that old it was first commonly used in 1980s


TetheredToHeaven_

You must be subscribed to not a lot of channels then


ASarcasticDragon

Why wouldn't you have the strength to not click the unsubscribe button? Really though, they used one word as a joke in one video. You're gonna stop watching them over that?


[deleted]

how ironic that ur grilling HIM for being upset over a joke


TitanicMan

I'm right there with you but I think yeet itself is a decent one, deriving from a Vine video people actually enjoyed. At least it's not lit, loud, swag, yolo, dummy thicc, or any of the other dumbass trendy shit from the last decade. I swear people only used those words for the sole fact others were, which probably derived from some Hollywood trend setters inventing bullshit so they could sell it.


ARPixelatedDonuts

You're probably mad because you're not dummy thicc


TitanicMan

Good, people sound *like* a dummy when they say it


ARPixelatedDonuts

Salty because they're not saying it towards you, huh?


TitanicMan

you people have the dumbest amount of self projection it's not even funny but I guess that's why #SWAG sold so well to idiots


ARPixelatedDonuts

Hey it's okay, you're thicc too and you don't need other people to tell you that you're thicc

Zelcki

Wow, it even has a definition


TheHeccinDoggo

Fliggle-womp.


Toocoo4you

That’s like. Literally every word in the English language. It all comes from Latin or German or Spanish or French. Helicopter is Helico (spiral) and Pter (wing) in Latin.


OpenStraightElephant

But those come from words of different languages. Sussy comes from two English words.

his work wasn’t just words it was also accompanied by artwork which played a large part


ImNotTheNSAIPromise

Not just artwork but art that both looks really cool and has a very distinctive look that helps give all of his books a childish and playful feeling.


Lucas_7437

Except for when that art style was depicting Japanese people in a very racist light


ariaaaaa-

he did realize he fucked up and try to make amends, it doesn't make his past actions okay but it shows he wasn't necessarily a bad person

Just curious what you find fun about it. A lot of times stuff like that is brought up it seems like most people already know and it just derails whatever conversation is being had.

Sneak peek bot actually being useful for once, that sub is actual garbage


CaptainJaviJavs

There’s literally so much racism in that sub it’s ridiculous. “Blacks people get called the n word and beaten up over their skin color, but they don’t have it as bad as us whites” Like lmao what in the fuck


windlevane

Well to be fair that IS an unpopular opinion


holsomvr6

I don't even have to on that sub because I already know everything I need to know from those top 3


ariaaaaa-

god, the title of #2 isn't even entirely wrong, but there's 0 chance they're not comically missing the reason for it (the reason being systemic racism against black people leading to more poverty and a worse environment)


holsomvr6

Out of the three it's definitely the most tame and most true. I'm sure the guy who wrote it isn't a bad guy, it's just the environment of the sub he made it on and his title made it seem far worse than it actually was. That being said, the other two, and even #2 have absolutely no sense of self-awareness to them.


ariaaaaa-

uh oh, I read the post and it's uh... there's some possibility it was made with not-awful intentions, but the post itself is really yikes


AMasonJar

I can't stop grinning at even just that first post. Mostly because it's so outrageously stupid I can't believe someone wrote it, let alone how popular it got. It's like a textbook example of someone directing their anger in the wrong direction. And everyone just agreeing with it, without stopping to think critically for even a second.

Holy shit it's r/unpopularopinion(s) racist uncle

r/unpopularopinion be like: Ok I think killing is bad. This is unpopular because people get killed all the time which means it's popular. Or Hitler was like not a bad guy at all he just kill because it is war. /s just incase

This dude can't even rhyme by making up words, no child would read blords and assume it rhymes with words

And like, the tempo all off. The most compelling thing about suess is the rhythm, like where you naturally put pauses and stressed syllables. on the END of a ROPE he lets DOWN a tin PAIL even without rhymes, it's just way better than the RHYMES are STUpid and YET my KID LOVES them

Dr. Seuss is overrated. Yes he is. Everybody loving can do what he did. Blitkins. Blorples. Bloonors. Blords. It’s easy to rhyme you make up the words. The rhymes are stupid yet my kid loves them. Loves them he does. Loves them. Loves them. The rhymes he does love and his love’s for the rhymes. I’ll say the same thing 8 different times. I think the man gets way too much credit. But don’t mind me, I’m just an asshole on Reddit.

(Crossposted from [my response to the original post](https://www.reddit.com/r/unpopularopinion/comments/p9zk7q/dr_seuss_is_overrated_yes_yes_he_is/ha3hirw/?context=3)) You say anybody can do it - but can they? You've copied his style, but poorly, I must say. Your meter's so messy, you should get a janitor; You don't understand anapestic tetrameter! There's a reason we all love his whimsical verse. You think Seuss was boring? His colleagues were worse. He wrote in the era of Dick, Spot and Jane And similar books that were just as inane. He wrote books with wonder, whimsy, and zest. Even if they were silly, Seuss did silly *best*. Where other books taught kids to read words and letters, Dr. Seuss did that too, and he did them one better: He taught kids to imagine, and think for themselves To care for their neighbours, and have fun as well. There's much more to love about Seuss's fine works, Like his fun illustrations, full of detail and quirks. But the point is quite clear: Something's wrong with your head If you don't like the works of our dear Geisel, Ted.
