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

[Valgal]

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?

[nietis]

For me, it's anything with eel... They disgust me. Yuck.

[catgoddess]

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.

[MamaBee]

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.

[nietis]

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.

[mariewilcox]

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).

[renatasluis]

Wine and coffee

[GraceLee]

I can't stand watermelons and avocados. Bleh! I've learned to like guacamole in my soup, but that's about it.

[KristinCB]

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.

[YepBrook]

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. ;)

[DawnMarch]

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

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.

[Nettio]

Yogurt. SO gross. I've even tried feeding it Ryan and nope, I just can't.

[KristinCB]

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.

[mariewilcox]

Nope, that's something I DO NOT like that everyone else does. ;) hehe

[stormchaser]

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.......

[anelia]

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

[Suzs]

Vampires and zombies for me. I just plain don't get the fascination...

[carrie1977]

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.

[MamaBee]

Things that everyone likes that I
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.

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

[MamaBee]

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'll have to look into that... I don't usually eat soy - can be a migraine trigger for me - but I do like shrimp... :)

[breakingbrie]

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.

[ChristineF]

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.

[Kiana]

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.

[jumbbumble]

wine beer cocktails etc
E- Readers
coffee

[pewtertm]

Cheese.
Coffee.
Hot dogs. (ever since I saw how they were made...blech!)
Fish.
The use of "ellies" instead of elements.

[cherrygutz]

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!

[renatasluis]

The song hello from adele.everybody likes it.i think its boring

[KristinCB]

Kristin, is your zodiac sign Virgo? :)


I'm a libra but only JUST libra.. so almost virgo LOL!

[mariewilcox]

The use of "ellies" instead of elements.

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

[jak]

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...

[anelia]

LOL, this thread seems like we're a bunch of haters.
BTW, I didn't really realize "ellies", "kiddos", etc could sound annoying...
As a non-native English speaker those sound somehow cute to me, didn't really think they're so childish so thanks for pointing that out :)

[Nettio]

The song hello from adele.everybody likes it.i think its boring

This is how I've felt about every song I've heard from her new album. I don't get all the hype! I also keep thinking she's young, why are all her songs so slow & sad??

[anelia]

I don't get the hype with Taylor Swift either but I guess I'm old.

[annet83]

I love Adele as a person, she's hilarious, but I don't like her music at all.
Don't like coffee either. And I'm also not a big fan of The Walking Dead. Or Sherlock, which is a really big hype in my environment as well.

[nesser1981]

I'm right there with ya!
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.

[nesser1981]

Sigh... I love coffee, movie theaters, sushi, avocados, chocolate, tv, watermelons and meat. :w00t:

OMG - thank you!!! I thought I was the only person in the world who is not impressed with Adele's music! The song Hello makes me want to drive my car off the road if it comes on the radio :D

[nesser1981]

I don't like Beer, can't stand the smell of it. I'm not a big drinker in general, but I have been drinking more wine, I just have to find the right kind.

Super expensive purses, like more than $50, I'm not touching it.

Underarmor clothes for kids that will outgrow it in a few months. Any fancy clothing brand for kids really, I'm not willing to spend more on my kids clothes than I do on mine.

I haven't gotten into the "it" books since stupid Twilight, so I haven't read/watch the Hunger Games or Divergent.

Beyonce. I don't get, I did like Destiny's Child though.

I don't care for the sun/beaches/heat all that much either. Which is weird since I'm from Florida, but now that I'm older and the red hair, it's just too much hassle. LOL!

I know a lot of people love him, Benedict Cumberbatch, not attractive, Kylo Ren in Star Wars, why people liked/found him attractive, I don't get.

I'm sure there are a ton more, but those are some biggies.

[Kjersti]

The words bae, for realsies, and sorrynotsorry.

[Valgal]

Good grief! I got busy and this thread went crazy w/o me.


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.


EW! me too! I will only eat boneless wings. Watching people eat wings is gross too.

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).

Now see, I love wine but can't stand beer. I've tried many times, but it's just too bitter or something. I don't like it. Which is too bad because it's much cheaper than cocktails! lol!

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 almost asked for that last week but then changed my mind at the last minute because I started over-thinking things. Maybe I'll give it one more shot. It's a texture thing FOR SURE.

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 was a big Walking Dead fan the first couple seasons, then it got really over-hyped and weird, IMO. I stopped watching a couple seasons ago because I decided it wasn't the most peaceful pre-bed viewing material. So now Eden and I crawl in bed and read while John and the boys watch.

Ha! So many things: coffee/Starbucks, avocados, Brad Pitt, Benedict Cumberbatch, 'The Walking Dead,' vampires, zombies, 'Doctor Who,' 'Star Wars,' Legos, beer, wine, RPGs...


LOL!

[Valgal]

I'm surprised at how many of you don't like wine and coffee. I mean, like, I don't know if I can stick around here anymore.

[rach3975]

Yes to both of these! I can stand to drink one or 2 super sweet wines, but I rarely bother. I'd rather eat my calories. ;)

I like manicures (even though I never actually make time for them), but pedicures drive me batty. Never again.

And tv, too. I can go 6 months at a time without ever turning it on, and then it's probably because DH and I wanted to watch a show together. Give me a book or computer any day!

I will not be the least bit surprised if some kind of Tiger Woods-level scandal comes out about him at some point.

Vanessa, you have to like Kylo Ren AKA Adam Driver because he is from my hometown (and where I'm living 10 minutes from now)! Mishawaka, IN has produced exactly one famous person, and he's it. :p

THE COLOR PINK ---- Hate it with all my heart

FLOWERS AND LEAVES IN SCRAPBOOKING ---- I know, all kits have them but I hate them. I´ve learn to use tini tiny paper flowers as scatters... but I try to avoid them.

In food: Coffee, Avocados, Watermelon, Papaya, Mango and Milk
Any sweet and sour combination or sweet and salty...

TV: Scandal, How to get away with Murder, The Walking dead (vampire girl here).

Android telephones (don´t understand them and I hate to even touch them)... Is Blackberry or iPhone for me

[Heather91]

I hate coffee and tea the smell of either makes me feel ill. I think it may be because I worked at a Tim Hortons when I was a teen and used to smell like it all the time.

[joelsgirl]

Will Ferrel. I have never, in my entire life, laughed at anything he has said or done. I'm pretty sure that I might be the only person in the world who doesn't love Elf, but I don't. I even tried watching it on a flight overseas, where there is literally nothing else to do, but I turned it off like half an hour into it because I would rather sit and stare at the seat in front of me than watch that movie.

Also zucchini is gross, and so is eggplant. And quinoa? Gag.

Plus, I don't like holiday themed kits. I just feel like I can only use them for one thing, and that is why I've been using the same two birthday kits for the last five years.

[clearskies]

I didn't like Elf either Kellie...

Let's see...things I hate:
TV shows
Coach purses
Yogurt
Kale

I can't stand comedians in general (unless they're REAL good). On that note, I can't stand Jim Carrey and the last version of Dumb and dumber (Dumd and dumber to, 2014) was the worst "comedy" I've seen in my life.

[nietis]

I don't like beer. The smell and the taste... yuck! I'd prefer wine.

I don't get the hype over Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez.

Dont like will ferrel either, now there is the new zoolander and every time they a commercial from the movie and i see him i think, he is so not funny !

[icindi]

I hate coffee. Sushi. Yogurt. Wine, beer and liquor. So I'm probably not normal but it is what it is!

[Heather91]

I don't think Will Ferrel is funny either, but I did watch Elf for the first time at ever at Christmas and it was funny even if I don't like him. I don't like the slapstick comedians I prefer more hmm what's the word ....sarcastic humour like Jerry Seinfeld.

[Heather91]

You know surprisingly it would seem scrapbooks are a tad anti-social, given we need pictures of people for our books LOL

[angiepangie]

I hate coffee too. And I'm another who isn't a fan of The Walking Dead. But I love sushi. ;) It's been an acquired taste after a couple of visits to Japan.

One thing that has been making my eye twitch lately is when people include kisses ('xxx') at the end of every. single. message they send someone. I get images of a person kissing me after everything they say and it just creeps me out haha.

[YepBrook]

The x's are hugs and the o's are kisses. I also totally do that. :o

[angiepangie]

In Australia we've always been told that the x's are kisses and the o's are hugs. :) Apparently they can be interpreted either way. I always include them in cards so I'm definitely far from innocent, I just get this weird feeling when I read them all the time haha. It's just me - I'm not a very touchy-feely person. ;D

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.

[Valgal]

When I see 'XXX' I just think of adult rated things. Like Brandie Maxxx from Parks and Rec.

[SeattleSheri]

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.

[SeattleSheri]

Oh, I forgot ... I totally don't get everyone's infatuation with Adam Levine or Johnny Depp .... please explain!! :p

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.

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!

[anelia]

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?

[JennNtheBoys]

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

[JennNtheBoys]

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

[nietis]

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!

[anelia]

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.

[julifish]

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!).

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?

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.
