What do you hate....that almost everyone else loves

I hated mayonnaise until I was pregnant with my first kid. Since then I’ve liked it. Weird.

most green veggies (except broccoli and green beans), cauliflower- gross. parties.

swimming - I hate getting wet

wine, beer, almost anything containing alcohol - I don’t like the taste and wine gives me a headache and heartburn and makes me sleepy

Disney World

@lookingforward , LOL, twenty years ago DH and I took FIL to the New Orleans aquarium. In the ticket line, FIL learned the cost per person was $10 (or whatever it was at the time.) He was shocked, and exclaimed, TEN DOLLARS??!! If I’m going to pay $10 to see fish I want to see them on my plate!

Football. Universities paying sports coaches any more than $150,000 to do their jobs. Universities having football teams. (How can we condone a sport that causes brain damage in so many boys/men?)

This was long ago, but I never did understand the popularity of Judy Collins. I thought if I heard her off-key rendition of “Send in the Clowns” one more time, I would scream!!

@MaineLonghorn -

OMG! I also can’t stand Judy Collins or Joni Mitchell or Christine Lavin. My H loves them and has brainwashed my D into using some of their stuff in her performances. I am slowly trying to weed those numbers out… To me, their voices are whiny, off key and painful to listen to. My D’s renditions are, IMHO, much better but I still don’t care much for the source material.

The Golden Girls TV show
Massages
Doritos of any flavor
Men’s bare feet. I’m sure some men have good feet but to avoid seeing what can’t be unseen I try not to look at them.

Ooohhh… a fellow socks and sandals fan, @CheddarcheeseMN ! :wink:

^^ ‘Both Sides Now’ still makes me melt. Something about it resonates with us middle-aged-males. Go easy on us!

@CheddarcheeseMN: “…to avoid seeing what can’t be unseen …”

Oh, man. That is so freakin’ funny.

Love a man with nice feet.
Hate when they’re grody. Not fond- at all-of socks with sandals.

Rollercoasters or any ride that makes my body think it’s being hurled toward impending doom! Why would you make your body feel like that on purpose? Just no

Parades- ugh all the waving of people I don’t know, so corny. I slept on a street curb once to watch the Rose Parade. Not worth!

Sweets- too sweet, even a brand new piece of game makes me break out in a sweat lol. Savory foods are way tastier.

Musicals-I fall asleep as soon as the singing starts. Last one I saw live was Phantom, that was an expensive nap lol. What’s wrong with me haha

Mayo, mustard, okra, eggplant, beer, coffee and most alcoholic beverages

Practical jokes (finding humor in another’s pain or embarrassment is just wrong to me), cats, graphically violent TV shows or movies.

A pet peeve of mine, but others must love it because it’s the norm at every wedding, bnai mitzvah, large party, etc. is when the dj or band’s music is so loud you can’t converse with the person next to you no matter where you are in the room.

Holidays, with their disruption of routine.

Now that the holidays are over, every pore of my body has relaxed.

Also dislike the loud music at parties.

Surprise parties

Bob Dylan
Bruce Springsteen
Joni Mitchell

I never cared for the Golden Girls either. Another show I hated that everyone else loved - One Day At A Time. I couldn’t stand the mother! I mean, who blows up a non-abusive marriage and disrupts her kids’ lives just because she doesn’t feel fulfilled? Is anyone really that self-centered?

“who blows up a non-abusive marriage and disrupts her kids’ lives just because she doesn’t feel fulfilled? Is anyone really that self-centered?” Oh, yes. Yes, there are people like that.

“A pet peeve of mine, but others must love it because it’s the norm at every wedding, bnai mitzvah, large party, etc. is when the dj or band’s music is so loud you can’t converse with the person next to you no matter where you are in the room.”

I wish SOMEONE could explain this. At my wedding we asked for QUIET background music during the meal. It was blaring. Finally we told the band to quiet down or leave. They did quite diwn but seemed put out.
