Confession 2.0 (things that 'everyone' likes but you don't)

I don't like sushi. When we're out I feel compelled to order something to fit in, telling myself that maybe THIS is the time I will magically like it. I have two pieces and I'm done. Then I stupidly have one more piece and have to choke it down and concentrate on not gagging and then say, "You know, Eden would LOVE it if I took the rest of this home for her." Why do I do this?
 
TV - I've never been a fan and become even less of one as I get older.

eeaders - I made the switch to a smart phone a couple years ago and I think I was the last person under the age of 90 to do so. I don't see me switching to an eeader anytime soon...

chocolate - I'll occasionally have a piece or two and I definitely like Stacia's brownies, but I could never eat chocolate again and be perfectly OK with that.

video games - I'm not a gamer, but Matt loves them.

Yes to sushi... gross. I've tried... I just don't like seaweed and the raw fish texture.

Buffalo wings... pretty much any meat that I have to pick the meat off the bones like a caveman. Wild Buffalo Wings is my hubby's favorite restaurant... I haven't found anything on that menu that I like.
 
Snacks. I like buying them and seem to be a good one to choose what's yummy what's not. But I usually be the last person in the house that eats them.

Things that everyone likes that I don't.... hmmmmm....

Wine? Haha. I just don't like the taste of it. Blech.
Pedicures/manicures... I just don't have the desire to spend time doing that. My nails are unpainted 90% of the time and I'm ok with it.
 
Off the top of my head:

Coffee is disgusting.
Any meat is disgusting.
I've never liked wine either - I've tried but outside of Boones Farm Tickle Pink or Strawberry Hill I've never acquired a taste :blink: (I love beer, however).
 
I can't stand watermelons and avocados. Bleh! I've learned to like guacamole in my soup, but that's about it.
 
hmmmm.. tough one! It's hard to think of things that most people like that I don't. I can be pretty picky but a lot of the foods I don't like are ones that a good % of others don't like too (mushrooms for one haha). I haven't had meat in a few months now and the thought of meat kinda grosses me out now too.

In terms of THINGS.. I HATE going to the movies. HATE. I haven't been to a theatre in almost 10 years.. I hate the crowds and the noise and just to me they are kind of gross because I don't know if they really get cleaned all that well lol.
 
Sigh... I love coffee, movie theaters, sushi, avocados, chocolate, tv, watermelons and meat. :w00t:

ETA: In fact, they are my FAVES. You guys are weird. ;)

I hated sushi for a long time but recently discovered that you can ask them to replace the seaweed paper with soy paper so that it doesn't have that extreme fishy taste. With that change, I now LOVE it -- especially shrimp tempura rolls (i.e., no raw fish). Yum. So, if it's the fishy taste you hate, give it a try with soy paper.

I have never really found an Itialian dessert that I thought was good. Tiramisu is the most overated dessert in the world, IMO. And gelato is 99% of the time just substandard ice cream.
 
I will also add "the walking dead" While I have never watched an entire episode of the show from the bits and pieces.. I just do not get the hype haha.
 
I also happen to rave over tiramisu, The Walking Dead and YOGURT! OMGee...




ducks and runs...
 
Ha! So many things: coffee/Starbucks, avocados, Brad Pitt, Benedict Cumberbatch, 'The Walking Dead,' vampires, zombies, 'Doctor Who,' 'Star Wars,' Legos, beer, wine, RPGs...
 
SHOPPING! Most of my girl friends love shopping therapy. I hate it! I would rather be outside riding my dirt bike on a single track or hiking in the mountains. My friends think it's weird, so does my husband lol. I think he would rather shop then me dragging him on some wild adventure.......
 
Kristin, is your zodiac sign Virgo? :)
As to me -- I hate all kind of alcohol and don't get it why people enjoy it so much.
I hate all things "white chocolate" - to me chocolate and WHITE don't go together
I hate crowds in general and busy streets with LOTS of people who are out just for a walk...this drives me nuts because they walk so sloooow
But I love sushi -- at first thought it was some kind of trendy obsession but when I tried it, I really liked it. I hate wasabi though -- so I always order without wasabi.
I don't really like bolognese sauce.
MILK? That's the one thing I LOATHE (unless it's with added cacao and sugar lol)
I hate ombre hair!!! (love balayage though)
I hate high-heeled sneakers/trainers.
What Brook said about mani/pedi and nail polish. Even though I like my nails with some color I rarely paint them because it drives me nuts
Oh, those are too many, I guess. Let's stop here before I turn into a hater lol

Sushi and edamame....caca. :p

Brussel Sprouts are yuck, too.

The Walking Dead and Sons of Anarchy...not for me.

High heels in general...I have flat feet so those and I just don't mesh.

yes this - I had one manicure that my maid of honor set up - how is sticks jamming into the cuticles suppose to be comforting? and pedicures... OMG - I hate people touching my feet! I had a joint issue in my foot and I prided myself that I didn't kick the doc when he had to touch it to exam.

Another thing that people love are massages... the thought of someone outside of my hubby touching me... makes me shutter... does not feel good - it hurts! That is also in the line of hugs... I have to really like you to give you a hug... :o

I'll have to look into that... I don't usually eat soy - can be a migraine trigger for me - but I do like shrimp... :)
 
Coffee. I loooove the smell of it though! But any kind of coffee or flavored coffee/cappuccinos even are so gross! Not even interested in trying sushi.

I do however, love The Walking Dead.
 
I can't stand coffee, taste or smell. Sushi is a heck no and Asian cuisine is just not my thing.
And another shocker, I don't like red wine. Or dry white wine, a sweet one I'm fine with (my husband calls my favorite "apple juice" due to it's fruity, sweet taste.
 
Wine. Sushi. The Walking Dead. I'm with the others that don't like those. LOL

Awards shows. I have no interest in them. I haven't watched one in years and every time there's one on I hate checking social media, because that's all everyone is talking about.
 
Cheese.
Coffee.
Hot dogs. (ever since I saw how they were made...blech!)
Fish.
The use of "ellies" instead of elements.
 
Fruits. The last time I ate a fruit (banana) my mom said I was 4. Never a fan because I think it was too messy to eat. Unless it was in a form of shake then yes!

YES!!! This drives me batty! They're not ellies :blink: Cutsie re-naming of words by adults drives me crazy - kindy, kiddo, etc. Maybe it's because I'm older but I just cringe when I "see" or hear an adult talk like a tween :D
 
Others have named most of the things I don't like, so I'm glad to see I'm not alone. In 'real life' I seem to always be the outcast though!

Seafood (and therfore sushi)
Coffee/tea
All alcohol
Parties/large social gatherings
TV (other than the odd movie on TV)
Make up/perfume, etc
Anything celebrity related...
