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

I don't like disneyland.. I have been there once with my family when i was 11 and once as a band trip. it was OK but it was nothing I am anxious to go back to... too expensive.. too many people.. I am not really a fan of rides either.

I also don't have a strong desire to go to a beach resort type place where you just sit around and drink and relax.. I like to go out and explore places when we go on trips which is why i LOVE road trips.
 
The beach. I just hate the beach. Sand is hot. Water is freeeeeezing. Sand gets into everything...I'd much rather stay inside under the AC or go to an actual pool.

LOL! I have never heard of anyone hating the beach, ha! :D
 
Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of Disney stuff either. I mean, we took the kids there this year, but it's because I didn't want to deprive them of something just because it's not my gig.

For those of you that don't like alcohol (excluding religious preferences), when's the last time you had it? Most people don't like it right away. In fact, I'm pretty sure I've never met someone that liked it on their first tasting. Same with coffee. I consider both an acquired taste.

I'm quite surprised so many people dislike sushi. Good sushi doesn't taste fishy. I also don't consider California rolls to be sushi. I eat raw fish at least once a week. I LOVE salmon sashimi.

I promise I'm not trying to convert anyone! :p

As far as things I don't care for, I have very few. I don't like olives (not sure that's super rare though). I tolerate eggs, but only when smothered in "stuff" and I don't ever drink milk by itself. Also not a fan of lowercase-only typing. I watch very little TV, but enough where I can't say I don't like it all together, lol.
 
Oh, I forgot ... I totally don't get everyone's infatuation with Adam Levine or Johnny Depp .... please explain!! :p

I'm glad I'm not the only one. :D I don't understand everyone's infatuation with Ryan Gosling either (my friends bag me out about it all the time).

Same here! We went to Vanuatu before we got married seven years ago and while we stayed in a resort, we spent most of our time exploring the country. I could never sit around the pool all day, every day like most of the other people staying there - there were too many exciting things to see and do!

Jane Austen.

I just can't read her... it's so awkward and makes me feel stupid.

I *think* I just died a little :eek:
I too thought this with my first Jane Austen book, but then I fell in love with Mr. Darcy and the fantasy that there will ever be a true feller like him out there.

Totally agreed about Clooney and Gosling ... though I must admit I have a little something for Mr. Tatum. He's kind of cute :D Brad Pitt is another one that doesn't do much for me. None of these men are unattractive per se, but I just don't think they are all that either.

Oh I love salmon sashimi too!! YUM!!!
 
Haha, what Flergie said about the actor guys.
As to the beach - I hate the sand getting into everything and I hate it when the water is cold too that's why the rare cases I go to the seaside is end of July, beginning of August when the water in this side of the planet is as hot as tea lol
But I totally hate overcrowded beaches. I hate the process of tanning too -- oh, how do I stay there all day under the HOT sun?

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 am with you on the messages and hugs.... same exact deal
 
Wine.... never liked it, probably never will.... although there are some nights I wish I did. :p (hate beer too)

veggies - I have to dehydrate them, turn the into powder and then sneak them into my food that way before I'd eat them.

Disney.... I mean the kids watch the movies and I like them but I just don't get the HUGE hype about it.

Telephones... can't stand them! I have a smart phone but I call i my "text box"... I avoid using a telephone to actually talk like it's the plague.

Starbucks.... love coffee, can't stand anything from that place.

sun tanning (outside or tanning beds) - no thank you!

shopping.... i absolutely despise going into stores to shop... unless i have a specific thing i am going in for, and go straight to get that thing and get out, I do not want to be there.


Side note.... I am happy to see so many non George Clooney fans.... that leaves more of him for me! :D LOL
 
For you girls that hate the freezing water of the beach, you should totally go to tropical islands (like Bali), where the water is warm!
But yes, I hate the fact that the sand stick and get into your everything!
 
Oooh, I dream of going to some tropical island but then I stop myself because I've heard there are too many bugs in those places and I have a serious OCD and phobia of bugs (especially flying species). Is it true there are bugs?
Jenn, about the veggies -- does this hate of yours applies to all veggies? If yes, how do you substitute them? Like potatoes, cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce, carrots, peppers, onion, peas -- those are veggies we can't live without in this side of the world.
 
So glad I'm not alone on the things I don't like that others do including:

Reality TV - The Bachelor, Survivor, Amazing Race

Red Wine and Beer- I like white wine, but don't need it daily like some of the near, to over, 40 moms I know. I like cider, but not beer.

Relaxing vacations - I don't go on vacation to relax, I got to see things - lots of things. All in one resorts, too boring. Staying in one place for more than a week, boring.

Trendy teen words - bae, jam, etc. I have teens and I only use those words to make them laugh.

Trendy books - if I read, it's a generally a mystery and not something that will be turned in to a movie.

Star Wars, Star Trek, Avengers, Comic Books, Sci Fi - just bleh!

Netflix - just not in to it.
 
I haven't been in the forums in ages but this thread is awesome... lol.

I dislike... bananas (ew! ), pumpkins and beans (a texture thing) , books that most book clubs read (I keep trying to join local groups to socialize but I just don't like the books they pick... lol), beer (or any fermented, malted alcohol... they literally make me sick), swimming in anything but a pool (lakes and rivers are just gross, and there are things that might nibble on your toes... eek!).

Ummm yes. tropical place has mosquitoes and flies and the likes. Most of the times only mosquitoes that would be bothering though, but, they usually comes out at night.
 
I don't like reality tv. Or self-help tv like Dr. Phil or Dr. Oz. I also don't like crime documentaries or shows like Dateline.

I don't like eggs without ketchup.

I don't like perfume at all. Makes me feel sick to my stomach.

I don't like staying up late. I'm very much an early to bed, early to rise person.

I don't like switching purses so I overuse one.
