Booted from a Rome fan group for saying the Colosseum is overrated

I posted that it's crowded and not worth the long lines, and they deleted my comment and removed me. Now I write about alternative historical sites on my own blog. It's strange how some people can't handle different opinions.

That "it's not that big of a deal" line is a total shutdown. I see it all the time when people don't want to put in the work to fix a small problem. It just guarantees the problem gets worse.

Ever notice how "it's not that big of a deal" gets thrown around for everything? From tiny annoyances to real problems, it's like a go-to phrase to avoid talking things through. Saw a neighbor dismiss a leaky roof last month until the ceiling caved in. Why do we always downplay issues until they blow up?
