Subscribe me to your newsletter, but only because I'm curious as to the rinsing in question.

I almost did this yesterday but decided my take was not hot enough.

You've succeeded where I failed

I want to hear more about how Zelda isn't good because that take is LAVA LEVEL HOT and also I don't have Switch and I want to feel good about my life choices / circumstances!

Hot Take Parte de Deux: Zelda was never good.

INTRIGUED!

Spoiler:

I only have my memories of the original game and the Adventures of Link. I've been NIntendo-less since.

Hot Take Counterpoint: BoTW bucks the trend that the last 30 years of Zelda games sought to establish i.e. The never goodness of the previous Zeldas is largely irrelevant to BoTW.

My Hot Take: BoTW is the first innovative Zelda since Zelda II: The Adventure Of Link (or the CD-i Zeldas).

I agree for the most part, except BotW is amazing.

YOUR OPINION IS WRONG

I think Marilyn Monroe is overrated, and frankly a net negative to 20th century pop culture.

Am I doing this right?

You are making the same mistake I did with my distaste for Batman. TECHNICALLY It has to be part of the culture moment for it to be a HOT TAKE.

HOT TAKE: Screw technicalities. #FreedomToHotTakeEvenAboutColdTopics

I think Trump is doing a good job.

Also, when did animated gifs become okay in this forum? Because I've been holding back.

WELL DO I HAVE A SURPRISE FOR YOU.

Spoiler:

Gifs have always been okay as far as I can remember. I mean, obviously overuse is frowned upon

They've always been okay, just not as avatars (with a few exceptions to the avatar bit).

I think there's room for a new Unpopular Opinion Puffin since that particular imagemacro has long since transformed into Straight Up Bigotted Crap Puffin.

But yes, a hot take should be a first blush, ill-thought-through, unnuanced take on something in current public discourse.

Guys. it was a play on the title of the thread.

Why yes I am blatantly reusing the image I made a few hours ago.

Blizzard kinda stole 99% of everything that's in Starcraft from Dawn of War to begin with so... Imma give'em a pass here.

its not the world, the aesthetics or the units but the trailer/gameplay that bores me. Seeing the fairly agile eldar stalker just stand there and let a bunch of ork walkers....meh.

No Pass! Hot take!

Also fair

I prefer my hot cakes with peanut butter and syrup, not regular butter and syrup.

IT'S A HOT CAKE/PANCAKE HOT TAKE.

I believe you meant a "HOT HOT CAKE TAKE."
