<p>haha owlice…I love auto racing but i dont want to stand 5 hours to watch it!! :)</p>
<p>I don’t get Secret Life of the American Teenager, but I also don’t get the claim that it makes teen sex seem okay. To the contrary, it is so didactic, glum, and badly acted that it’s practically an after-school special.</p>
<p>Cars: Cadillac Esplanade or whatever that HUGE SUV is called.</p>
<p>^I actually would LOVE to drive an Escalade. :D</p>
<p>I also enjoy driving my parents’ tahoe, and I don’t think a Denali would be too shabby either.</p>
<p>The right turn thing -
People who, when the right line is extra wide to allow one to go straight with room for another vehicle to slide up and turn right - are absolutely clueless and position themselves in a blocking position in the middle and end up not allowing others to slide up and turn right on red.</p>
<ul>
<li><p>People who drive 55 in light traffic on a freeway with a 65 speed limit.</p></li>
<li><p>People who drive less than 65 in the fast lane because they’re on the cell phone.</p></li>
<li><p>People who never use turn signals - probably because they’re using one hand to hold the cell phone (illegally in Cal).</p></li>
<li><p>Women who never drive anywhere without being on the cell phone pretty much the entire time they’re driving - probably talking to other women driving in their cars talking on the cell phone…</p></li>
</ul>
<p>I don’t get any SUV’s at all.</p>
<p>I don’t get boats, or why it’s considered fun to be trapped on one for a long long time (I’m talking about the smaller ones w/o a bathroom).</p>
<p>I like this thread, but I think it should be about not getting something, rather than actively disliking, which is entirely different (and much less complex).</p>

<p>I don’t get when I am trying to turn left on a four-lane road, I’m in the middle turn lane with my blinker patiently waiting for the traffic to break, and of the two lanes that I’m trying to cross over, the person in the one closest to me stops and motions for me to go ahead and cross his lane and the other one. Don’t they GET that if I turn left in front of them, I am now completely unable to see the other lane, so I am setting myself up to be rammed by the car in that far lane, and they are NOT doing me a favor? That they’d really just do me a favor by proceeding on and letting the traffic break naturally? </p>
<p>Argh.</p>
<p>I don’t get the popularity of “reality” shows. They bore me to death. Same with TV shows of people playing poker.</p>
<p>Iced coffee
Tramp stamps
Sagging</p>
<p>I don’t get American Idol – what is so amusing over watching Simon Cowell be gratuitously nasty to people.</p>
<p>How about the costumes on Dancing with the Stars??</p>
<p>I don’t get how you guys don’t get some of my favorite things.</p>
<p>What’s a tramp stamp?</p>
<p>Tramp stamp: tattoo on the lower back of a female…formerly right above the top of her g-string, but now very common among non-strippers, too. Often seen as a strong hint that she’s not prudish (as mentioned in “Wedding Crashers”).</p>
<p>Uh, you can Google, but I don’t want to be responsible for what you see!</p>
<p>I’m with everybody who said any kind of motor sport.
Also bicycle racing, which is an impossible sport to enjoy watching. If you’re standing by the side of the road, you see these guys go by for like a half-second at a time. If you’re watching on TV, the camera is either in a helicopter (so the riders are so far away you can’t see them) or on a truck of motorcycle that’s going the same speed as the riders (thus no perception of motion).</p>
<p>I get the skimpy female outfits on Dancing With the Stars. Don’t get the outfits on the males.</p>
<p>Also don’t get American Idol.</p>
<p>Marathon running.</p>
<p>The infuriating stopping before a right turn is not while turning onto a perpendicular street, but rather turning into a driveway of a house or store or school, when there is clearly plenty of room and nobody in the way. I see it all the time. It’s like they think a car is made so it will fall apart if it attempts a 90-degree turn at above 3 mph.</p>
<p>CIGARETTE SMOKING. Don’t mind if you do it far away from me. But what’s with thinking it’s ok to throw the butts anywhere you damn well please?</p>
<p>Any drink made with gin.</p>
<p>I honestly don’t get this “beauty” trend of a woman having her lips injected with whatever. It’s so ugly and makes her look like a fish. I can’t even look at Octomom, Lisa Rinna, et al without thinking of fish lips. And they do this on purpose?</p>
<p>Right on, Sequoia. I used to watch anything Jennifer Garner was in. Now I can’t even look at her.</p>
<p>Speaking of fine-tuning female beauty, Rachel McAdams is incredible, but how about spending a few bucks getting those distracting moles taken off your face and neck? Josh Hartnett, too, has that big neck birthmark that looks like somebody tried to give him a tracheotomy and missed by a couple inches.</p>
