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

I too hate travel. It’s nothing but stress – from buying the tickets to finding someone to care for our dogs to getting to the airport on time to sitting on the plane being horribly uncomfortable (and I am petite) to having to do it all over again on the way back. I am happy and relaxed at home, thank you very much.

Mexican food. My mom claims it’s because they moved to New Mexico when she was 8 months pregnant with me, and says she ate nothing but Mexican for the last month.

MOfD - If everyone hated sweet pickle relish, it would not be offered at hot dog stands! :wink:

Facebook.

"D2’s response: “I hate peanut butter.”

Lol, that’s what Mr. B said. Then he added, “Peanut butter, and our president-elect.” I had to correct Mr: more than 1/2 of voters did not enjoy him, so that does not qualify as “what everyone else likes.” :wink:

Ok…I like most of the things the rest of you hate.

But I’m not a fan of Cheesecake Factory. I think it’s way overpriced, too crowded most of the time…and the Cheesecake is meh.

Beets.

Massages and pedicures.

Mayonnaise. I will go without lunch if it’s on my sandwich. I’ll pretend to eat and talk a lot, but I won’t eat it.
Soft drinks.
Reality TV and the pseudo stars associated with it
Roller coasters
Slapstick comedy. Even as a child.
ETtA - and I’m another massage hater. Hmmm, do you think CC parents might lean a little onto the aspie end of the spectrum?

My first thought was: kale. Then… spinach.

And then:
Tom Cruise
Mel Gibson

Cilantro
Beer
Grapefruit
Cheerleading

Liver and onions - easy to avoid
Bean soup - easy to avoid
Cigarettes, perfume, candles, air fresheners, scented laundry soap - very, very difficult to avoid
Scented pine cones
Travel - mostly because I get nauseous very easily
Caving
Tools, mowers, etc. that I can’t start

Also alcohol… I’ll have a drink so don’t hate it but do hate that people see it being essential for fun get-together. Beer specifically - tried to like in college and never could.
Entertaining
Cruises
America’s Funniest Home Videos - cringe

Yea, could never get into beer, tho have tried multiple times. S likes the craft brews and H will have maybe a beer a month or less. D and I like Moscato if we drink anything or blended drinks that are mostly like smoothies with a mild kick.

If alcohol vanished from the planet, I wouldn’t mourn, honestly.

Absolutely hate:

Mushrooms
Seinfeld
Guacamole
Beer
The Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad, Futurama (all the shows my kids love)
Massage - even the touch on the shoulder at the manicure place creeps me out. I tell them at the beginning that if they do that to me, NO tip!
Pedicure - can’t stand anyone looking at, let alone touching, my feet.
Having my picture taken.
“Cool” moms who think it’s fun to get drunk and post photos of it.
The Allman Brothers, Stevie Wonder and jazz.

Our S hates beans–green, dried or fresh. If he’s not starving, he will eat around them or pick them out. If he’s starving or striving to be polite he will try dried beans (green beans make him wheeze, so he avoids).

Cruises
Most shows on TV, that is why we stopped watching it and canceled cable
Another vote for peanut butter
Snow
Apples

@bookworm -

Can you regift that pedi thing? I did that when someone gave me one. I told the person to use my name and never go back to that salon. Someone once gave us a couples’ massage gift certificate and I let H use both ends of it. The funny thing is that one of my closest friends does massage as part of her job and I won’t even take a freebie.

Some other stuff I forgot the put on my list:

Black and brown olives, but I love green olives with pimentos. H is the same and so are all of the kids.

Peanut butter - when D was 7, she came home from a play date, looked at me accusingly and with hands on hips, said “WHY have you never served me peanut butter before?” Um, because the smell makes me want to puke? She actually wrote her first song about peanut butter as a teenager. Ironically, I actually like most nuts.

It’s really interesting to read other people’s foibles.

Radishes…HATE.
