1
What is your most controversial opinion?
2
I think I would date a racist.
3
What?
4
I'm about to ask 100 random people for their most controversial opinion.
5
And after we get 100, I'll be asking 100 different people to vote on which one is the most controversial.
6
This is insane.
7
Oh my God.
8
Let's start asking.
9
First of all, you can't change your gender.
10
Why are we being gaslit into thinking that's a thing?
11
That's not a thing.
12
If you want to be a guy and you want to wear lipstick, if you want to wear high heels, that's cool. Do it.
13
But you can't go get surgery and then just say you're a girl.
14
Taylor Swift is not talented.
15
Very overrated.
16
Why do you think she's overrated?
17
Her singing is meh.
18
She can't dance.
19
And her music tastes like unseasoned food.
20
Unseasoned food.
21
Yeah.
22
A &W is a really bad fast food restaurant.
23
I believe in every conspiracy theory about the government.
24
On hers, I'll say yes.
25
I think it's naive to think we're the only ones out here.
26
So aliens are real?
27
Yes.
28
I think the Dallas Cowboys are going to win the Super Bowl this year.
29
We had a top five offense last year.
30
We brought back George Pickens on the franchise tag.
31
I'll be honest, I didn't really listen to what you said.
32
I was just lost in your voice.
33
I really appreciate that.
34
It just made my day.
35
Really?
36
The voice and the face for radio.
37
Definitely have the voice.
38
Yeah.
39
If you're dating a man and there's a woman harassing him, calling his phone 24 -7, it's his fault, not hers.
40
Like, women aren't crazy like that.
41
He's making her crazy.
42
Yes.
43
My controversial opinion is I feel like sex work is very glamorized and young girls shouldn't look up to that.
44
I don't like weddings.
45
We've turned it into this whole money grab.
46
ABBA is terrible.
47
Transsexual women are not real women.
48
There should be laws for walking on the sidewalk as there is driving on the road.
49
They're walking too slow.
50
Too slow.
51
You're supposed to walk on the right side.
52
There should be a good flow going on.
53
I think like some places don't offer enough mat leave.
54
AI being used for art is ruining art as a whole.
55
One of my controversial opinions is that I freaking love fedoras.
56
People are very sensitive nowadays, like being scared to share your opinion because you're scared of getting canceled.
57
What is your most controversial opinion?
58
I think I would date a racist.
59
I don't think it's that bad.
60
You know, people could change and if he says that he's changed
61
and I could forgive him and then we could be in love forever.
62
Don't you agree?
63
People could change right?
64
I agree people can change.
65
That's how I'll date a racist.
66
Why don't you just date someone who's not?
67
No I could do that too but like if he tells me
68
that he racist somebody like later on
69
and I liked him like of course I'm gonna be devastated
70
but then like he isn't racist anybody anymore because he stopped and he's dating me now.
71
But I wouldn't mind dating everybody.
72
I don't like
73
Drake when he's acting tough.
74
Why do you think he tries to act tough?
75
I think it's just the idea
76
that you're selling an image to people both people in the culture
77
and the people outside the culture time loops in movies are bull
78
so for example in interstellar him being able to affect his
79
own past from the future doesn't make any sense uh what mine is that time loops are fine
80
and you i think there's a middle ground and there's some constraints
81
that have to be respected all of us should feel pain the more pain the better
82
because that's how we grow as people not talking about political opinions
83
when you're like in a friendship you think in a friend group
84
You should keep your political opinion to yourself.
85
Yeah.
86
Dogs shouldn't be able to just go on public sidewalks.
87
More public spaces should be kid -free, like restaurants, etc. Just 18 plus.
88
What do you hate about kids?
89
They can be chaotic, running around, screaming.
90
You shouldn't have to ask for ketchup when you're at McDonald's.
91
They'll drive away and then they'll realize I don't have any ketchup.
92
I can't turn around, not in traffic.
93
You know what I mean?
94
People want to think that having a higher degree means that you're successful.
95
Oftentimes that doesn't really get you anywhere.
96
Not paying your rent isn't really that bad because you're paying the ass to get evicted anyways.
97
You can skip a couple months.
98
Have you ever missed your rent?
99
Yeah, it's worked out.
100
You're chilling.
101
Yeah, on that line of property is left.
102
I think plan B should be free.
103
I just don't think that homeless people should be blamed for being homeless.
104
It's like the city's fault.
105
Girls and guys can be friends.
106
The state of Israel should not exist, period, point blank.
107
And why do you think it should not exist?
108
The creation of Israel was illegal to begin with.
109
I mean, the UN and Britain decided that.
110
Not really a fair shake.
111
Also, the Palestinians were one of the only countries that was allowing
112
Jewish refugees post -Holocaust into their country en masse.
113
They were housing them, feeding them.
114
They turned on them.
115
And if Palestine is the land where
116
Judaism originated, then how dare you?
117
Because they are your people.
118
I think that hot dogs are sandwiches.
119
Because if you think about like a sandwich, it's just bread, meat, and then bread.
120
and then a hot dog.
121
What's hot dog?
122
Bread, meat, and more bread.
123
We are one third of the way there, and I'm pretty curious to see how the voting segment is going to turn out.
124
But before we get ahead of ourselves, let's head to the mall to ask more people.
125
What is your most controversial opinion?
126
I love that my phone listens to me because then I don't have to try and remember to look up certain things.
127
It just sends me ads.
128
I'm not important enough.
129
Nothing to hide.
130
Nothing to hide.
131
So I'm like, sure, help me out.
132
Trump is an idiot.
133
Tipping culture is a bit out a hand.
134
A lot of places it's expected and the behavior to earn these tips is like not even granted.
135
Sometimes they don't even know my waiter's name and they ask for a tip.
136
I don't believe that this is a god at all.
137
We pay a lot of taxes here in Toronto and I don't think we're getting our return on what we pay.
138
Girls playing boy sports.
139
I think like girls can play any sport.
140
What kind of sport would be an example?
141
Football.
142
Maybe that's why they invented rugby.
143
Do more girls play rugby?
144
I believe so.
145
But that's not fair.
146
See, we should get to play football.
147
In a relationship, the men have to pay more than a girl.
148
I think like 90%.
149
90 % men pay.
150
Messi and Ronaldo.
151
I love Ronaldo because he has a lot of aura.
152
I'm currently in a debate with someone about wrap pizzas.
153
Wrap pizzas?
154
Yes, instead of having like dough as the base, you have like a wrap, like a tortilla wrap.
155
And you like this?
156
Yeah, it's delicious.
157
And then you put corn on it.
158
I'm so sorry, I know.
159
I'm worried the right wing is taking over.
160
We should be putting spikes on the road to reduce the number of cars.
161
Yeah, sure.
162
Let's go with that one.
163
You agree?
164
Yeah, why not?
165
Just spikes all over the road.
166
For the greenery is good.
167
Fine, no police good on pizza.
168
GPA does kind of matter in school.
169
Misogyny is probably more ingrained into society than we think it is.
170
A lot of girls, for example, are less likely to pursue math,
171
not because they're not good at it or like they're not sort of like naturally inclined.
172
It's just because the way that girls are socialized, it's like we have a hard time excelling in subjects like
173
that because we're not encouraged to try again if we fail at something.
174
If men fail at something, they are more likely to sort of pick themselves back up and like try again.
175
What is your most controversial opinion? in.
176
Okay, I think that school should be optional for people who truly want to go.
177
What level of school?
178
High school should be optional for people who really, really want to.
179
What about you?
180
I think that voting should kind of be the same way
181
because I think that if we let younger people who want to vote, vote, then maybe we would have a more willing society.
182
You say lower the voting age.
183
I would say like you should be able to apply to vote at a younger I'm not a big Donald Trump fan.
184
We're overpaying taxes.
185
The younger generations can't afford a home.
186
So there's something wrong with the system that we live in, right?
187
I have a home.
188
I'm a homeowner.
189
And it's still very difficult.
190
I don't think I can remember if I ever had one.
191
Nothing at all?
192
Nothing.
193
Sorry.
194
Okay, no worries.
195
It should be more done for disabled people and wheelchair users to get around the city.
196
You would like it to be easier?
197
Yes, very much so.
198
Bulbasaur is my starter.
199
So you would pick Bulbasaur?
200
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
201
What do you like about Bulbasaur so much?
202
We got that bulb.
203
We got that sword.
204
We saw it.
205
Anything else?
206
We got that vinewood.
207
Affordability crisis are not something that we can overlook.
208
Pineapple belongs on pizza.
209
That the world is getting better.
210
Why do you think the world is getting better?
211
There's innovation happening.
212
And with AI, things are going to become more efficient.
213
I just think the world is getting better, no matter what.
214
We just have to wait like a few thousand years, probably.
215
Oh, you dropped it.
216
Sorry, thank you.
217
Oh, it's perfect.
218
Okay, thank you so much.
219
You have so many different religions telling you a lot about different parts of your prayer
220
and how things are supposed to go in life.
221
You believe in only one religion?
222
Yeah, only one.
223
And which religion is that?
224
The real one, this religion.
225
Some people shouldn't be allowed to fly.
226
They don't know airplane etiquette.
227
Only go up when your zone is cold.
228
Don't stand up immediately.
229
Put your personal item under the bin unless there's space above.
230
That kind of thing.
231
I'm not happy with the way
232
President Trump runs his state, whatever.
233
I really don't have any.
234
I'm just happy to be here, happy to be sitting next to you.
235
I don't think it's controversial though, is it?
236
I just said I don't have any, big head.
237
Listen, listen, I said I'm not happy with Mr. Trump.
238
Okay, that's good.
239
That's good for you.
240
Is it controversial, Matt?
241
That bike lane should be controversial.
242
Like the fact that we're talking about tearing it up still, like, it's insane.
243
Criminals should be held more accountable for their actions.
244
I don't love tipping culture.
245
I feel like people in this world, they try to say LeBron's the GOAT.
246
They say LeBron's the best to ever do it, but then they haven't seen me.
247
Hell no. Why aren't you in the league?
248
Humble.
249
What is your most controversial opinion?
250
I don't think we should give good customer service to people who are just really bad to you.
251
Like they're like super rude.
252
So you should be able to ignore them? fight them just like a one -two like a quick let's settle
253
it in the fitting rooms you know more privacy exactly
254
and the other customers don't need to see nothing and which store do you work at which location
255
on that note it was time to head to the third
256
and final location what is your most controversial opinion
257
that michael jackson is still alive why do you think he's still alive i believe it in my heart
258
and he had like a closed casket i think it's also just
259
because i want him to be alive because I love him.
260
What are your thoughts about the kid stuff?
261
I don't think he did it.
262
I think he's innocent.
263
Just go with the flow, regardless for themselves.
264
I know it's really complicated.
265
It's just ups and downs.
266
Just go with the flow.
267
Perfect.
268
Thank you so much.
269
Show him as the best food ever.
270
Men should always pay on all dates.
271
Do you think men should pay 100 % of the time?
272
I think yes, because they're providers.
273
If he doesn't have money, he should not have a relationship.
274
Sadism is underrated.
275
Everyone has a point in their life where they have to realize sadness is part of the life
276
and they have to deal with it no matter what.
277
Like you know how right now we eat like five times a day?
278
That's actually us being a cactus in a rainforest.
279
If you think about it from like evolutionary biology perspective, we could go like days without our next meal.
280
So do you think more people should be fasting?
281
100%.
282
The healthcare industry isn't made for women.
283
I'm from Ukraine, all right?
284
I don't support
285
Russia in any sense or Russian people in any sense.
286
I hate everything about that.
287
Kids is a choice.
288
I've chosen not to.
289
That we don't treat life as it should be.
290
How do you think we should be treating life?
291
People like to complicate.
292
Pardon my French.
293
We like to complicate it.
294
Life is so simple.
295
We don't need to worry about a 9 -to -5 schedule.
296
About do I need this or do I want that?
297
It doesn't matter about that.
298
First day, man has to pick.
299
I don't know if this first pick for the Leafs is going to change anything next year.
300
I think gambling supports positive mental health.
301
I think that humans should die.
302
We're really bad for the planet.
303
We're the most selfish creatures to ever exist.
304
If you look at dinosaurs, you watch the dinosaur documentary, they've been around for billions and billions of years.
305
They've come back.
306
They've come back bigger.
307
Humans have been here for not even a fraction of the time, and we're destroying each other.
308
We're cruel to each other.
309
We're mean to each other.
310
We want to, like, get rid of each other, and we should just all die for the planet.
311
For the planet.
312
For the planet.
313
Yo, I think peptides should be FDA -approved and legal.
314
It's not all that great to own a home.
315
Renting is way better.
316
Get rid of like the gentle parenting.
317
Bring a little bit more discipline back.
318
Kids aren't scared.
319
They're entitled.
320
Not that they have to be scared, don't get me wrong, but they have no respect anymore.
321
Drake is not that good.
322
Drake is not.
323
Sorry, Iceman dropped.
324
The album was mid.
325
Maid of Honor was mid.
326
Absolutely dog water.
327
I'm Persian.
328
I'm against the monarchy.
329
I don't think it's good.
330
A lot of people love it.
331
I don't like it.
332
I feel like pandas are just polar bears in disguise guys.
333
So they're secretly polar bears.
334
Yeah.
335
So how did they become pandas and why are they pandas?
336
I think like the government dies them.
337
How did you first come to this conclusion?
338
Um you know deep dive on Reddit.
339
McDonald's is overrated.
340
I mean this like from a good place in my heart bringing back masculinity.
341
I feel like men can provide for women.
342
I'm like if they just do
343
that more it'll make women want to be not out at the club
344
and instead like at home with you and everything like that.
345
What is your most controversial opinion?
346
That men's voices aren't low anymore.
347
My most controversial opinion is I think truck drivers are compensating with their trucks because they're compensating for something else.
348
Men don't have the capacity to not be lustful.
349
So you think all men are lustful?
350
Yes.
351
I don't I don't like sushi.
352
I don't like sushi either.
353
You're Asian and you don't like sushi.
354
Well, I'm Chinese.
355
I don't really like peanut butter.
356
It gives me a headache.
357
We should teach religion in schools.
358
And what about you?
359
I guess.
360
Also teaching religion in schools.
361
That Daenerys Targaryen is the prince that was promised.
362
And it's not Jon Snow.
363
And you can't convince me that it's Jon Snow.
364
Not Jon Snow.
365
I don't like Chipotle.
366
What about you?
367
I don't think you should drink on random days.
368
You should only drink if you're like getting drunk.
369
Why are you drinking otherwise?
370
Like that's a waste of money.
371
And before I knew it, I was at 99 opinions with one more to go.
372
What is your most controversial opinion?
373
I would say feminism.
374
What about feminism?
375
Now that we have 100 controversial opinions, it's time to put them all on a board
376
and ask 100 more people to vote to determine the most controversial one of them all.
377
This is the board with all 100 opinions.
378
Now, let's go find 100 more people to vote.
379
On this board, there are 100 controversial opinions.
380
All I need you to do is pick which one you think is the most controversial.
381
Maybe the only religion that exists is Christianity.
382
Perfect.
383
I think this one, yeah.
384
The world is getting better, yeah.
385
Could you just make a small tally right under it?
386
Just a line up?
387
Perfect.
388
You can't change your gender, it's very controversial.
389
Perfect.
390
In relationship, men should pay 90 % of the time.
391
Okay, that's my choice.
392
90 % is too much, you think?
393
Yeah, it is too much.
394
We ain't got too much money out here.
395
The first few people all picked different answers.
396
But as I approached 25 votes, one opinion was clearly standing up.
397
So we have asked 25 people to vote so far.
398
And right now, there is one opinion that is taking the lead.
399
I might need like more space for the tallies later on.
400
But I guess we'll see.
401
Okay, oh my god, I would date it right now.
402
Yeah.
403
That's crazy.
404
This is insane.
405
I would date a r*.
406
This is the most controversial opinion I've ever seen.
407
Dating a r* is pretty bad.
408
What do you call it?
409
Really?
410
What do you mean?
411
Really?
412
Oh, dear.
413
I'm f.
414
Sorry.
415
We are halfway there.
416
We have 50 votes total.
417
Right now, there is one opinion that is taking the lead at 26 votes.
418
Although one opinion was pulling far ahead in the votes, there was another opinion that surprisingly caught people's attention too.
419
What do you dislike about Fedora Hat so much?
420
I'm just not a fan of how they look.
421
Who the hell is wearing fedoras?
422
Wow, yeah that's a scary one.
423
I mean fedora hats is up there though.
424
Yeah.
425
Fedora hats is very up there.
426
Fedora hats.
427
Oh my goodness, what did a fedora hat do to you?
428
After 100 votes, the results were pretty one -sided.
429
Surprisingly, people weren't a big fan of fedora hats for some reason.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
