Things most people love but I can't stand

**D.B. Cooper** · 11-14-2012, 12:48 PM

I'll list a few of mine and I'm curiouis what are on others lists. These are things that when you tell people you don't like, they look at you like you're crazy.

Pac Man
The Beatles and U2
Friends (the sitcom)
and the big one.... Cell Phones

**bearhawk72** · 11-14-2012, 12:51 PM

I agree on cellphones.

Sorta agree on the Beatles. I don't really like them but I don't hate them. Since I wasn't around back then I can't grasp how they were ever so big, even now. Same goes with Elvis.

**Mareeps** · 11-14-2012, 12:58 PM

Texting. I cannot understand why people would rather spend five times as long typing out a message on a phone as opposed to just calling the person.

**Slime Slayer** · 11-14-2012, 01:11 PM

Sony and Microsoft.

**Kugyince** · 11-14-2012, 01:49 PM

Movies and television.

**sabby** · 11-14-2012, 02:07 PM

Reality TV
First Person Shooters
Having to be "the first"
Being fake online

**Kong** · 11-14-2012, 02:52 PM

The Beatles
First Person Shooters
Cell Phones
I was going to say those before I read them above.

3D Games
Ginger
Soy
Mayonnaise
Coffee
Ice
Malls
Bars
Drugs
Cigarets
Porn
Junk Food
Corn Syrup
24 Hour News Cycle
Subsidies
Most Laws
Concerts
Spectator Sports
Lawns
Name Brand Clothes
Facebook
Babies
Incense
Candles

I guess I am a pretty crotchety old man because I could keep going for a while.

I'm already suprised by a few things people have listed but that's the point of the thread. Three of the things I enjoy most in life have made the list.

Movies
Concerts
and Porn

I'm not a fan of hardcore porn but I have to admit I gave a movie I watched on Netflix an extra star because it had some nice girl on girl with lots of boobies

Another one for my list.

Wine

**Barra** · 11-14-2012, 05:15 PM

Definitely surprised by a few, but theres some I agree with too

Pac man
Coffee
Drugs
Salad dressing
Piercings

And my absolute NUMBER ONE:

FIREWORKS

**Slime Slayer** · 11-14-2012, 05:28 PM

Steven Colbert
Barack Obama
Neil Patrick Harris
Ian Mackellen
Emma Watson
That little Dinkledge midget
Bill Nye
Carl Sagan
Stephen Hawking
ect.. ect...

Basically any celebrity that reddit has decided is cool for no reason whatsoever. Nothing makes me rage worse than a link titled something like "Barack Obama being boss" and it's a picture of Obama doing nothing.

the only exception is Bill Murray who I can't seem to hate.

**Kong** · 11-14-2012, 05:30 PM

@Steven
Lawns take so much effort. Water - in some places (Texas) this has a huge environmental impact, de-weed, mow. Just doesn't make sense to me.

@Cooper. When I put porn on my list I forgot the topic said "can't stand". I just don't like it as much as other people.

I would add Mario and Sonic to my list.

I find fireworks boring. I don't hate them but I don't like them either.

Oh okay, yeah that's stuff too.

**Kugyince** · 11-14-2012, 06:04 PM

Capcom.

**CatalystiCam** · 11-14-2012, 06:51 PM

Mostly going off what I've seen from above:

Tomatoes
Pickles
Kind of texting (costs less only real reason I do like it)
Chuck Norris Jokes
Drugs
Alcohol
Piercings
Rugby - not many I know like it, but I know it's popular. Allow forward passes, and it would be okay.
Vancouver Canucks (team)

**CrispyChicken** · 11-14-2012, 06:54 PM

@Steven- Ian McKellen is the only one I really disagree with. He played Gandalf and Magneto and did a good job too. Anyone who pulls of Gandalf is pretty cool in my book.

@Ten- I was going to say Capcom but I assumed most people hated them by now.

**ARedLetterDay** · 11-14-2012, 07:06 PM

I don't.

Steven Colbert is awesome. The Colbert Report is not how he actually is in real life. In real life, he's super intelligent and knows what he's talking about.
NPH is an awesome actor and singer.
Same with Ian Mackellan.
Emma Watson is also an amazing actor, and is pretty darn gorgeous to boot.
Bill Nye, Carl Sagan, Stephen Hawking are all awesome but I guess I'm biased because I'm a huuge fan of science.

Not trying to change your opinion btw, SC.

I love Capcom still. Call me a blind fanboy, whatever, but I have sufficient reasons why I still love them.

Pineapples, they're like raisins, I like them every once in a while.

In my country, this would be regarded as profanity. :P
(its our national sport, assuming your talking about Rugby Union and not league)

It's got nothing to do with how skilled any of them are in their respective fields, it's got to do with the pedestal they are put on that they don't deserve. That and the fact that it's "cool" to treat them like gods. There are countless people more deserving of our respect.

**ARedLetterDay** · 11-14-2012, 08:04 PM

Bill Nye, Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking more than deserve the pedestal they're put on. Maybe not treating them like Gods, but they are awesome people. Just my opinion though.

**samejamesbond** · 11-14-2012, 08:23 PM

Glee

I really hate that show.
