Hey Pandas, What Is Something That Everyone Loves To Do Byt You Hate With A Burning Passion? (Closed)
I'm curious to find out what is the thing you hate to do but others seem to really love it.

Watching sports. Especially FOOTBALL! Here in the United Kingdom of UK if you are male you are almost legally obliged to support a team. I never have. It is boring.
I feel this too hard. I could not care less about any of the big televised sports (football, rugby, tennis etc.) but once its on it takes over EVERYTHING
Yeah, I remember being a little kid in the US and asking my aunt, who was insisting that I play basketball with my cousins, what the point of the game was. I understood the rules, just didn't see the point of trying to get the ball into the basket repeatedly. What good would that do me? I never did get an answer. I understand exercise is important but sportsball never appealed to me, and I know people enjoy different things but watching the games obsessively is just beyond me. I'm being super autistic here, sorry!
@nathaniel this is how cricket sounds to me: "well he's just tossed a run with his wicketbat and that means the featherstonehaugh has to crumple the marmoset and get a silly middon."
Social media (BP excepted, of course!) I loathe the very idea of FB, Twitter, TikTok and all the rest. So much fakery, attention whoredom, money seeking, mean spiritedness! "Friends" who aren't real friends. No thanks.
Never had any of those (except twitter for about a year) and I honestly don't get what people like about them. Especially celebrities, who keep complaining about the hate, which they would barely know about if they had no social media
No offense intended, but are you saying that celebrities should delete their social media accounts (which could help them promote themselves and talk with fans) because of a few haters? And also, most people use social media just as a way to be in contact with people they may not be able to talk with otherwise. There’s many bad things about social media but ultimately it depends on how you use it (the blocking and restricting features exist for a reason, and so do parental controls).

I have a fairly uncommon chronic health problem, and the support group on FB has helped me deal with the frustration at the medical establishment, the guilt at not being able to physically do more, and particularly the isolation. FB helps me stay in touch with old friends who are unlikely to call or email. And on and on and on. It's just a tool; learn to use it well and it can be very rewarding.
sure. But it's also a toxic groupthink bubble that caused the January 6 insurrection in USA, etc.
Load More Replies...yep. there's even a song about it. https://suicidecommando.bandcamp.com/album/attention-whore
I have fb because it's pretty much the main way ppl my age and younger communicate when they are not face to face. It's like ppl forgot about sms and mms. But I am only online a few times per year, usually. Maternity groups? They arrange evrrything via fb. Small local shops? You find their info on fb, not a website. Competitions and discounts? You find the best ones on fb. Instead of family-get togethers, my bf's family has a fb-group where they share pics and talk about new jobs, kids, vacations etc. I really want to delete my account on fb but I also need to stay in contact with ppl/the surrounding world. I hate that I must use fb for that.
I like tiktok, it's not all stupid dance videos. you can find stuff that interests you pretty quickly, and there are some really nice communities sprung up around cosplay, books, etc
Being the centre of attention. I’m confident and happy but I absolutely despise the thought of all eyes on me. Not all girls dream of being “a princess on their wedding day” 100% not for me.
When I got married I turned the corner into the center aisle and EVERYONE was staring at me. I'm sure I looked like a deer in the headlights but then I saw my fiance grinning at me from the altar. I kept my eyes on him and managed to ignore everyone else.
i HATE being the center of attention, on my wedding day ill be a....um....anyone got any enby ideas?
a ruler on their wedding day? monarch? maybe, in your case, a quiet monarch on their wedding day, studious, thoughtful, like a star that you don't always notice but glows just as brightly because it doesn't need to be in the sun's direct light to glow?
Load More Replies...A therapist once told me that she was so fascinated that I had never ever dreamed of my future wedding but instead had dreamed a lot about how I'd want married life to be. Weird. But I just think it's more important to "plan" how to live as a married person instead of just how you want to celebrate getting married.
celebrating on New years eve - I just wanna stay home and go to bed.
Yes! It’s an arbitrary minute on an arbitrary day! I can’t stand the idea that the clocking ticking forward one minute means everything will suddenly be better and you’ll be this whole new person with no bad habits.
Yes, I prefer to start the new year right with a healthy amount of sleep. I don’t judge anyone who disagrees, but I don’t want to start my year with zero sleep.
People playing 'music' with their bass up as high as possible while driving to the point where you can hear it a block or two away inside your condo. Can't even hear what they are playing, just the boom boom noise. Especially late at night while trying to sleep.
I loved bass to a good song. Some songs only sound awesome with subwoofers. However, I agree with you that people who show-off their subs by blasting them are just doing it cos they know it's pissing off the older folks and they think it makes them seem badass or have money. In their car it may sound good to them. Outside? It sounds like their car is going to fall apart and you can hear how their subs are usually blown out.

Put pineapple on pizza 🤮 (Plz don’t downvote if u disagree)
Pineapple is good. Pizza is good. But combine the two… Italian hatred
Load More Replies...Same. My sister likes that and it’s cool but I just can’t do the mix of sweet and savory. I think everyone will have different opinions tho
I don't like it but see why others might. I also don't like apricot chicken.
Pineapple + Canadian Bacon/ham is good on a pizza! I didn't try it until this year because I thought it'd be nasty too! It's not the flavor profile I want when I crave "pizza", but would defo eat it again.
Try a delicious Chinese durian pizza sometime. I Durian is the Limburger cheese of the fruit world
Makeup.I don't hate it but rarely do it ,I don't know how to do it and I don't feel the need.It is not a necessity for females.
That's how I feel, too. There's really no set rules with make up. One method doesn't suit all. For me, I can't stand the feeling of wearing a mask all day with powders making me sneeze and irritating my eyes. I'll last 10 minutes and then I have to wash it off. But I think the most disheartening part is trying to look for spots society would think are "flaws".
I so wish I didn't have to wear makeup, I hate putting it on every single day and I can't believe there's women out there who love to put on all the fake lashes/nails/ hair everyday it would drive me nuts ! But if I don't wear any makeup I look absolutely awful lol
I haven’t worn makeup since I was a teen (over 25 years) because I got fed up with the way the industry plays on insecurities and “flaws” and dresses it up as empowering. I had a friend back then who wouldn’t leave her house for any reason without full makeup and I hate that she felt that way about herself (it was very much “I can’t go out” not “I won’t go out”).
Yeah, I've never understood it either. For people that enjoy it, that's perfectly fine, but the idea of needing to paint on a mask to be acceptable to society is really aggravating to me. I'm fat and ugly, makeup isn't going to turn me into the supermodel society deems acceptable for being a woman, so I'm not going to waste my time.
I rarely wear make up, though if I'm going out (which isn't often) and have the time I might put some on. Never worn it as an everyday essential. When I was a teen I never learned to do it like most girls, the only tome I wore eyeliner was when others put it on me for performances etc.
Once I was playing Magic the gathering, a card game, at the place I go larping and someone asked if they had costumes, I assume because of the larping. I said there was makeup(by which I meant green, blue, gold, ect.) They thought i was being sexist because they asked for their daughter.
It’s also an art form which is why many people (of all genders) do it, but women feel forced to wear makeup because that’s what society says is acceptable, especially for younger girls. It really depends on the motives, which is what you should look at when you bring out your makeup palette at 5 in the morning to spend hours applying makeup so you look acceptable.
It is a necessity for me i used to hate it but now without it it just makes me feel tired and gross it just makes me happy to do it and look good at the same time it’s so fun to do and get new tools for it but I thought it was bad till I got good at it and now it’s amazing
I am a natural blonde, and my lashes and eyebrows blend so well into the rest of my face that I need mascara to even look like I Have lashes, and before I go Anywhere I have to draw my eyebrows every single day. When I dye my hair black or close to it I find it to be more forgiving if all I have time for are those two basic things. Now don't get me wrong I Love makeup and see it as an artform with the ability to boost one's confidence. However, it's not for everyone and should never be forced on anyone.
Dancing. I feel awkward and hate it. I love seeing people dance who know what their doing. But its not for me
I cannot dance lol, I do the little wavy thing where you hold your arms near your face and I look terrble
Used to have this issue till I discovered that massive amounts of alcohol gave me dancing powers. just saying.
I had the issue until I realized no one is a great dancer
Load More Replies...As an introvert/extrovert hybrid, this falls under the introvert side. I will sneak to the nearest exit undercover...
I can do ballet, but apparently that doesn't translate to normal dancing
Some of us school girls used to go to the disco. Drinking age in TX at the time was 18 and they never really checked so Wheeeeeeeee. It wasn't like Saturday Night Fever.. In fact its a lot like a rave. My daughter told me what a rave is so yeah Rave = Disco. Before that I was Heavy Metal. After Disco - Air Farce. I still dance but it scares the cats. : )
I'm a drummer. I create the rhythm that makes others dance but having a full-body dry heave was never for me....
Drinking. Never drank alcoholic drinks besides a sip here and there. I just don't see the appeal. Specially when, in the rare occasions I go to a party, they start throwing up and acting like idiots
People are usually stunned that I don't drink, especially considering I worked for The Beer Store for 10 years. I never saw an appeal to drinking. I just tell people that I tried but I'm just no damn good at it.
I only drink alcohol if it’s in something tasty, and never too much as I tend to go straight to sleepy and/or depressed.
Yeah it's a mess. One of my partners and ex-in-laws was an alcholic. You waste a lot of money and develop tolerance. So you increase the amount you take to get the same buzz. You then end up spending a fortune chasing that buzz. Then when you finally get it you've taken so much you're on the verge of self-unaliving. Throw up, go to hospital, rinse repeat, crash your car, etc. It's a disaster. As someone who has too much as well, I get it. It has one purpose, and one purpose alone: that is to overcome introversion. As a massive introvert, it REALLY helped me get over myself. But I no longer really need it for that. However, banning it doesn't work.
It doesn’t overcome introversion for me at all, the more drunk I get the more quiet and introspective I become until I’m just asleep. (That’s a great reason to avoid getting drunk though.)

Load More Replies...I've tried a bunch but just do not like the taste of alcohol. I have enough other vices without adding alcohol anyway! I do get asked if I'm mormon a lot because I don't drink.
Fireworks! Not the big professional shows but those stupid little ones the drunk neighbors shoot off for every ridiculous holiday that comes along!
I don't even like the professional ones generally. Even more pointless watching them on tv.
The 'musick' they pollute the professional fireworks sounds with, especially Sousa. Let the fireworks make their own music. -and don't get me started on the neighbor noises that freak out my dog.
Thank you for making this distinction. I was raised by a pyrotech and he did the most beautiful shows, but also raised us with really strict fire safety at home and now whenever I hear randos (or cops, in my hometown!) setting off fireworks I get so f@#$ing anxious because I KNOW they aren't following safety rules. If you want to make art with fire you need safety training and a licence.
I find it funny when the neighbors do it bc they don’t know what they’re doing Ik fire is bad and that but it is so funny seeing them like “TIMMY GRAB MY LIGHTER I THINK I GOT IT”
Parties. I can’t handle crowds and noises and end up having a panic attack. Same for any event. People say “oh but it’s going to be so fun we’re going to blah blah blah” but I just can’t
"It's going to be so fun". Get there. Stand in doorway analyzing crowd and space ratio. Go sit stiffly on couch,. Fight urge to not put feet up on couch in case it's not kosher. Start eating snacks. Get up to go to kitchen to look for drinks. Get drink and go back to couch. Spot is occupied, now. Chair is occupied. Go back to kitchen to eat kitchen snacks. I could've done that in the comfort of my home with a good movie and a couch to myself.
I want to enjoy them and I expect a positive feeling but I don't actually like them. Not just parties but other social gathering things too. I usually hear people who do like them and people who don't, I really want enjoy social things and I like the idea of them but when i'm actually there I just want to leave.
That and concerts. Too many people and acting like idiots to boot.
Load More Replies...Same here too, I've always been an introvert but even more so now I'm 50 - I'll get a call about going out anywhere - no thanks, I'll stay at home with my books and a nice cup of hot chocolate!
100%, but well that's introversion for you. I had the same view, but after having overcome my introversion I now really like them. you get to meet different people etc. But you do you. If you feel lonely ever, just remember there ARE options but you have to be willing to take them and try them. Speakign as someone who was so lonely and introverted I tried to self-unalive.
Clubbing! I do not want ti get all dressed up in a tiny outfit and be gawked at by creepy weirdos. I always feel really good and incredibly anxious in a club setting. Rather just go sit at a table in a bar with a small dance floor and a "dj" who takes requests
I've never been to a club but I hear one popular place in my town has bouncers only let in attractive people. Not sure what the criteria is, if it's just looking your best or if you have to look like a super model, but I refuse to put myself in a situation where I may be judged, once again, on my looks just to go into a crowded room with sweaty, heavily scented, barely clad people rubbing up past me and fighting to get a bartender's attention just to get an over-priced cocktail, that will likely spill on the floor.
Clubbing was...awkward and exhausting. My feet always hurt, dudes always got sloppy drunk and I'd usually be the one firefighter carrying them out..
I loved it when I got over my introversion, but I was a guy so I get that it's unpleasant to be expected to wear minimal clothing as a woman.
listen to rap music, not for me.
I used to say the same, but I have found Aussie rap is more enjoyable and has something more meaningful to say than 'gangsta' rap. I hate just hearing about bitches and pussy!
Depends. Some I can do, some is so full of rage that it feels like I'm being screamed at by my late father.... right before he'd go nuclear. Soooo....
My babes. I got you. NF, man. He's insanely talented and just dropped a new album. I don't like rap, but NF is my favorite artist in the dang world
Rap is bad till you hear high bass start slow like xxtentation (SAD!) I don’t remember what it was or a white dude rapper like lil god Dan (Marceline or war is a good start) then slowly move to lil uzi vert like his song (watch this) then it starts to be good and feels like you finally heard real music
Agreed. It's mostly staccato poetry recited with a beat in the background, I just don't get it. As an African. I prefer our local music, Gqom and AmaPiano, etc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPO8a2RtxPc
Look at pictures of, or hold someone else's baby. I have my own children that I love, but that doesn't mean it automatically extends to every single poop machine out there. Please don't thrust your spawn in my face!
I was invited to my friend's wedding where she didn't want any childten--except her infant son. No one - not the grandparents or the bridesmaids/groomsmen or even the bride and groom - wanted to be bothered with their child /grandchild /friend's child, so essentially I was there to babysit. I actually had more fun with their son, playing and such than interacting with her childless friends, who thought it was "strange" I'd get on the floor and crawl around with this child, or dance with them. Some people shouldn't be parents, and I hope they will use birth control forever.
Weddings are hellish boring. I go for the food. The kids do make it fun, though.
Load More Replies...While I find a small percentage of babies cute, I'd much rather see and hold people's pets than humans.
Since I think a newborn baby looks like a cross between Winston Churchill and a p.i.s.s.e.d-off old man eating a pickle, I thoroughly agree with this. I restrain myself from saying this, when I am shown pictures, but DO NOT try to hand me a baby. NOT. Might've been a different story if I'd fathered a child myself, though.
This! Just because I am a woman doesn't mean I want to hold your baby. I will hold one now and then, and sure show me their pictures, but don't assume I want to hold it and just thrust it at me.
One or two is ok, but then I WILL show you my cats. A whole showreel or repeated show and tells, no. I’m outta here.
Babies are heaven. I know some parents go on and on, and that gets old... And they're a lot of responsibility. But -- there is so much potential in each baby for the human race. This does not mean we should just reproduce at the drop of a hat. Every child should have responsible, loving, caring parents and a good, stable home environment.
Drink wine. I find it disgusting, it all tastes the similar, it's either too sweet or too bitter/astringent. I've had wine from all over the world, cheap stuff, pricey stuff, in between. It's all terrible to me. I also don't particularly care for getting inebriated so it's not like the means can even justify the end. I like other alcoholic beverages with a good meal, but I just can't deal with wine. What's odd, is I'm the type of person who one would think would love a good wine pairing. I love basically all food, all cuisines, I'm a very adventurous eater, I love trying new things, learning about cheeses and beers and the differences between different types ... Stuff like that. But no matter how hard I try, wine just doesn't do it for me.
Hmm I can make a recommendation then, try a 3-year-old merlot with a pairing of emmenthaler cheese. Older reds are less acidic, if they were bottled this year they're all acidic. White is always acidic for me. Otherwise maybe try sherry or port. Those are sweet? There's also a local Rosé that we have which is sweet enough to pass as juice but not enough to pass as non-wine. South African here, we make a lot of wine.
You and I are the same. I'd like to like/enjoy wine but it all tastes the same to me 🤷♂️
Please do drive the wine route in Cape Town and try a few. They give guided tastings so you can compare side-by-side. Definitely there are differences. E.g. a riesling and a gewurtztraminer is sharp and sparkling similar to champagne, with a definite acidity but not too bad, whereas a chardonnay is sweeter, and a sherry much sweeter, versus say a syrah which is musty and acidic, compared to a pinotage which is just musty... etc. Definite differences. I'm no sommelier but I can tell the difference between some reds and whites and dessert wines blindfolded... so no... it's acclimatisation.

yessss i know a lot of people who basically worship fortnite and once they bring it up its just so annoying i can't understand why so many people like it
Ok well it’s because no one can afford nothing else but it and valorant so don’t judge till ur broke
I watched my boyfriend and his friends play it on one of his live streams. None of them really enjoyed it and it was the only time they played it on a stream. One of them said it was a pointless game, building forts just to have someone tear them down. ngl, this would frustrate the hell outta me. The random dance was awkward. At least they were more about trying to hunt other players than just build forts, which seems to be more of the point of the game. I don't know.
the office and harry potter. they're not bad but nothing to base your personality on
Harry Potter kind of is bad, when you look at it knowing how the author thinks. A lot of that bleeds into the writing.
I was too old to be the target age group when Harry Potter was big, but I read the books in college since they were so popular and just didn't get it. The basic storyline was fine but I couldn't understand what everyone was so hyped up about - Rowling really isn't that good a writer and a lot of the ideas aren't that spectacular. With her recent stance on things I'm glad I was never a big fan. The Office wasn't terrible but I definitely don't see it as the epitome of humor either.
I can barely follow The Office. It's really boring with a just a few funny bits. The UK one is even more hard to focus in on. The dialogue is too quiet.
ON GOD I hate when people always say that then ask me my house like bro I don’t watch that and I don’t even know any but there is a snake and griffindor or whatever
Same. It was too long for me and by the time I got halfway through the book I forgot what happened in the beginning. Cool if u like long books, but it was not for me
Load More Replies...I think I thoroughly enjoyed reading to all Harry Potter books.I have not seen the movies but some clips.When I saw them I was fascinated to compare them with what I had imagined while reading them.I still think that I imagined somewhat better.
I've read the books and watched the movies several times over. The movies are better, in my view. PS other pandas, do not think I'm a pleb, I have like 1000 books. Just in case one thinks it's blasphemy to prefer a movie. The movies eliminate a lot of weird hangups present in JKR's writing like the pretense at caring for the lower classes (S.P.E.W), and eliminated the jar-jar-binx like character ("dobby") from the scene where harry has to swim underwater to rescue Ron.
Load More Replies...Not exactly something everyone loves to do, but you have to have backstory so I don’t seem like a horrible person. I was always the therapist friend. For years people have dumped their trauma on me, and I already have super strong emotions and reactions to things. I got so worked up by everyone else’s problems that I couldn’t sort my own. The result of that? I despise listening to people’s problems. As much as I want to support them, I can’t do it. Go find someone who loves to hug people and listen to them, I am not that person.
it’s completely fine not to want other people’s emotions on top of yours, and i feel your pain because i’m that freind too! The best thing to do is to let them tell ypu about it and pretend like your listening and say something along the lines of “i’m sorry, i don’t know what to do about it, but maybe i could ask someone else for you?” in a sympathetic voice, and they will feel better already! (trust me, i know from experience)
Most of the time people just want you to listen. You don't have to try to fix their problem.

Dodging those "But remember I bought you that..." bullets like the Matrix..
IF I am paying I splurge like mad. I have to avoid shops for this reason.
I only like shopping if I don't actually need anything. Shopping when I need a dress for a wedding or event is just torture.
Watching sports. Mostly FootBall (I’m in the USA, and I don’t really like watching the Super Bowl) I only want to know who run, also COMMERCIALS
Golf. Everyone in my family loves watching golf on TV. They all used to play it. I had to go with my parents to the GGO when I was a kid. I hate watching it, hate it. I like mini golf.
the best time to destroy a golf course is 20 years ago. the second best time is now.
If I go to hell when I die, I will be forced to watch golf. With my dad. I feel this in my bones.
I literally just heard my company might do a golf outing as a team building exercise and I'm already trying to think of how to get out of it...
Go out. Watch movies and TV just because they're the cultural event and they don't want to get left out. Gossip about celebs, your neighbours, anyone who isn't you. Replybeg to famous/rich people in case they want to thank you for your support with enormous gifts. Get drunk or stoned. In fact generally people are awful, shallow, nosey gits.
Going to the beach. Or, more specifically, anything involving a lot of sunshine and heat. Throw in some sand, crowds and water full of fish and whatnot and I'm out.
I hate sunlight. Not a vampire, but looking to become one. Edit: I am fine with acting like a cat and bathing in sunlight through a window, but don't like it as bright light
I hate the beach too, I love hot places but not the beach if that makes any sense lol
I like going to the beach in the off-season, when it's too chilly to swim there are only a handful of people there, the view is great, and dogs are allowed.
Agreed the sand is everywhere then your dad screaming dust your feet off then parking then being in a swimsuit in front of people and even worse going to the waves and something touches your feet
The water is full of sharks that want to eat me. Spielberg told me so. /jk ....and yes, sunburn is horrible.
Came to say the beach. Sand, ugh. Saltwater ick and ouches from shaving. Sea creatures all up in my business (unbeknownst to me). Wind, none=too hot, some=everything getting everywhere.
Selfies. You wanna take a picture of you mopping the floor? Go ahead. You want to take a picture while hanging off a cliff? You do you. I rather take a picture of other people doing awesome stuff...
Those who promise interesting information, but just hog the camera with their dumb mug and self aggrandizing.
People walking, while staring in their smartphones.
I don't hate the people, but I really dislike the action. If someone walks towards me staring at their phone, I stand my ground and if they seem to be about to run into me, I loudly say, "BEEP!"
Honestly, if I was walking with my face in my phone and someone did that, I wouldn't even be mad.

I don’t understand what it is about blondes that makes people think they’re dumb! I am not dumb, and generally have a frown on because that’s sorta what my face just looks like so i just don’t get it! Also, i could care less about any trend that’s going on. For example, Fortnight used to be a huge thing, and everyone was always talking about it, and i have never played it once because i don’t care about all that! (even though some people were very upset about that because, well, i was in like, third grade)
We sound like soul sisters! Also female, blonde, natural Double G chest. Resting b***h face. Couldn’t tell you the last/latest trend I got in to. Probably Harry Potter at book 5s release early 00s. And cats. They kept me sane in lockdown. Drive me nuts now but I love them.
Oh this irks me. What is with the idea that hair color determines anything else? Ugh.
I'm a perpetually underestimated natural blonde, too! My supervisor once told me to consider my resting b*tch face to be "a feature not a bug" because it means people will leave me alone.
Fortnite* but yeah I feel it’s bc back then almost every blonde was spray tan big breasts and heavy makeup model which I have met very nice blonde girls and they are normal so I don’t think of that stereotype btw I’m a girl brunette

Dunno if this is something everyone loves, but award shows. A lot of award shows are usually rigged, and something that is objectively better usually gets swept under the rug for the more popular thing. Or, the judges who assign this are just utterly incompetent and pick the wrong thing to win.
i grew up watching the award shows and tbh the only reason i enjoyed was bc it was one of the few times i could bond with my mom. the tonys are only fun bc if you are too poor or far away to see a broadway show you get to see numbers from the 'best musical' nominees, but I'd really rather just see a proshot of the musical in question than an award show!

Fireworks. Sorry, but scares pets, dangerous and goes on for months in the summer
I love fireworks, but I know they scare animals so I'm sort of torn...
THANK YOU! I absolutely hate fireworks. The “weeks” of fireworks in July are pure hell for us, and our senior dog.
To be bubbly or always gigle or atleast laugh randomly like some college students do.I can't be in that kind of a"cool" zone always.
I do that without noticing. Caught myself on video letting out little giggles I didn't know I was doing. My mom says it's because I'm a positive, optimistic person. ( which is an unusually positive nice thing for her to say of me.)
Yeah I hate when girls do it and guys find it so quirky and cute like bro OMG YOU JUST SAID ME INSTEAD OF MY YOUR SO QUIRKY like bro not funny
EVERYBODY DOES THAT AND IT’S SO ANNOYING!!!!!! also giggling is spelled with two g’s
Making a role model.O course I learn from people but if you follow everything that person does even defending them for sth wrong then try to change it.
Agreed! A role model to look up to isn't bad, but if they do something wrong you should be able to see and learn from that too. And admit it!
Yeah, gotta watch out for those 'feet of clay' I liked a guy a lot 'til one day he took his shoes off - Warning! .. Yep that's how it turned out for me.
Birthday party, especially at workplace, with colleagues you don't like and boss you hate.
Showing your face in YT videos. Just why?
Personally I'm uncomfortable around cameras so yea I'd rather not
Yes yes! me too! So many pretend they have interesting info but you never get it because you've had enough of their damn mug and just leave.
Yeah, I've got a YouTube channel about traveling while blind. I think I showed my face in one early video while I was talking about some place I'd visited. Never did it again, it's completely cringe and utterly pointless for the kind of videos I make.
I do it but I'm looking into how I can do videos without showing my face. I don't want to be recognized in public.
Have a pet. I love that you've got "fur babies". But some of us don't have the time, space, or energy to keep up with a living breathing critter on top of other responsibilities. My pets are green leafy houseplants. No, you can't cuddle with it but you can safely leave it at home 🙂
If you don't want/like pets don't get one. I love that you're self aware enough to make that decision! I'm a serial plant killer so I can't have those, but my cats and dog are thriving!
I am the kiss of death for houseplants. I honestly have tried mightily but the only plant that ever lasted was a cactus.
If it makes you feel better.... I've killed an air plant!! You don't even have to water those! You are, apparently, supposed to mist them occasionally, which I didn't know you had to do. And some plants just.... Die. Wasn't your fault.
Load More Replies...And yet you call them it. No true "pet owner" does that - leafy, fur et al.
I have a service dog. She is essential to me. But I would never in a million years think less of anyone if they didn't want an animal in their life. Not everybody does, believe it or not. Please don't have children, they a re more work that a pet.
WATCHING OUTER BANKS! I cannot deal with OBX! I don't get why everybody is obsessed!
I tried to watch this since everyone at work raved about it! I did not get the appeal.
watching sports on tv. if I'm there, I love it. If I'm at home, I'm bored out of my mind.
I'll watch things I can't do nowadays like rodeo, otherwise not interested.
Watching rather than playing something in general! Not just sports but any kind of spectator thing, like nowadays people will just... *watch* other people play D&D, rather than playing it themselves??? I don't like watching other people do a fun thing, whether it's basketball or tabletop rpgs or video games! If I am interested in that thing I wanna DO it not WATCH. Never understood spectators. LIfe's not a spectator sport lol!
The people who crowded the Circus Maximus to watch the games there would likely disagree with you. For some people, then and now, clinging to spectator sports is their main occupation. But I'm with you, there are only a few sports I'll watch on TV, because they're things I used to participate in myself.
Load More Replies...Celebrity crushes. I’m okay with admiring people, but some of my friends are like “omg I want to marry this random dude I’ve never met and don’t even know their true personality because I’ve only seen them when they’re acting/singing!” It’s just too much for me and I don’t get it. I know a lot of people have these crushes and no shame if you do, but it’s just not my cup of tea 🫖
Lots of people get crushes on what is actually their fantasy. Not just celebs but in 'real life' too. We love them as we see them, not as they are.
- Watching sports (boring AF unless it's motorcycle racing). - Being around babies/children (not my cup of tea). - DYI home projects (I absolutely hate that s**t, glad my wife is more into it so have at it there Joanna Gaines.....). - Watch reality shows (except for P**n Stars, that s**t's interesting). - Clothes shopping....always hated it and always will. -
I think he meant P**N Stars. Er, the show about stores where you sell your valuables for money and can redeem them later unless you cant. Or don't.
The Panda has a bug I've been pointing out to anyone who will listen. It edits p-a-w-n but not p-o-r-n. I used to be a porn star, but now I'm a p**n star.
I'm aware of it but unlike other reality shows it's a a lot more interesting since you get to see some cool items and the history behind them, especially rare guitars which I'm really into.
Load More Replies...Sports boring, being around babies cute, home projects no, reality shows they are interesting when it’s 3am p()rn stars uhh I think you keep your opinion on those to your self but agreed they are interesting, cloth shopping amazing if your not with terribly judge mental people
This whole post is literally all about what your own opinions are whether others agree or not.
Load More Replies...As a Canadian, watch and play hockey, skiing, ice fishing, fishing (but I will watch River Monsters), snowmobiling (last time I done it I nearly broke my tail bone), hand egg (American football. I just don't get it and it's the ugliest sport I've seen.), In general, soak in baths. I'll take the odd bath. It feels good for a few minutes until the water starts losing warmth and the bubbles go away. The average bathtub is not comfy to sit nor lay in for long. Even with a pillow. Plus, since I have a skin disorder baths are more about softening the dry, dead layers and doing an intense scrub session. Just feels like a chore. But it has to get done or I'll feel itchy.
Too long in the bath or a hot tub and you're just making people soup at that point.
Hate hot tubs. But showering to get clean before a bath makes a bath a luxurious, healing experience.
Load More Replies...As a fellow Canadian, you have my vote! Especially on how so many folks "make virtue of necessity" regarding winter - "let's go x-country skiing!" or when I lived on the prairies "Sure its cold, but its a DRY cold with bright sunshine!" Icefishing - great, let's go sit in an unheated port-a-potti catching nothing for 12 hours.
LOL. "If you're bored go put on the snowshoes and take a walk in the back woods." Why??? I can't think of a time I was THAT bored that it justified settling for an even more boring activity of trudging through deep snow with no aim of direction or destination.
Load More Replies...A fellow Canadian hockey hater! I thought it was just me! (Watching all sports really but especially hockey and American football which makes zero sense)
Being compelled to eat an expensive, high calorie dinner just to be around friends, or dating. I am on a diet and a budget
Drinking alcohol, or smoking. It just doesn't make sense.
It's not supposed to make sense. It's supposed to be euphoric. I highly recommend psychedelics.
To curse.Some like to do that randomly some deliberately,but I don't like that.I believe if we give something to a person and he doesn't accept it so it remains with us ,same goes with a curse.
I don't care if someone curses out of the blue. But every other sentence just feels like they're trying too hard to sound all edgy, tough and rated R.
Yes, I've actually heard a neighbor scream into the phone "I f***ing Love you" What?
Load More Replies...I do but not 24/7 bc it just makes the sentences funnier or adds the extra anger or emotion to the sentence
hmm it sounds like you are mixing up swearing (profanities), with curses (evil wishes)?
Cursing is an art. It takes a wordsmith to be an elegant curser. A constant torrent of the F-word is off-putting and unimaginative.
Being self aware of time and place is important on this one I think. Cursing itself doesn't bug me, I do it all the time, but my brother has no perception of time and place and will curse up a storm in front of our grandparents and that bugs me. If you know you're around people who don't like it you should be able to filter yourself enough to not curse for at least that conversation.
Where I used to work it was the norm to cuss every other word. If not, you we're ignored at best. Proud to say I can go most of the day without cussing 😄 (unless someone or something provokes me)
Waching series/movies and TV. It's too passive and I get bored/distracted in about 2 minutes. I'd rather be doing something.
I keep a crossword puzzle for commercials. First one comes on I get so immersed in the puzzle I don't crawl out of it.
same! i start drawing at the same time and next thing i know i have a finished picture and no idea what happened on the show
Load More Replies...Sleepovers. They're just so overwhelming! I need a lot of time to unwind before bed, so it would be hard for me to fall asleep comfortably in a room filled with people. It would also drain my social battery.
I only liked sleepovers with my two best friends in high school. Any time someone wanted to do a big sleepover with a bunch of girls I hated it!
"Ngl I’m starting to hate Bp" Completly agree. looking back at one of my old accounts, someone told me to shoot myself, and it was one of the people who upvoted the original list addition. Thats not nice at all, and probably a crime in some places
That was awful! I can't believe someone would say that to someone else even through the anonymity of computer screen. I hope they were banned.
I'll have to return to this posting to learn what it's about... 23 skidoo!
I don't like sloths. Their faces, their long clawed fingers, their slow movements, it all just freaks me out for some reason. I'd rather hold a tarantula than a sloth, and I'm not a spider fan.
So glad I'm not the only one. I feeel this way about axlotls, frogs, and all the other new 'quirky' favourite animals. Also like... turning everything into a unicorn? Please stop.
YES! Why must everything have a unicorn horn now?
Load More Replies...my ex went around telling people i had a d i c k the size of a baby's hand but the thing is is that i never ever had s e x w i t h h e r or sleepet with her and when i sleep i sleep with all of my close
Agreed my ex would say he made out with me and I’m at the end of middle school and when he said we made out he said it wasn’t that good. And he said other things I don’t wanna get reported for put making up stuff about your ex is not cool
Ngl I’m starting to hate Bp
That's sad, this is honestly a really kind and supportive community to me personally
Depends on the articles. The AITA ones attract a particular crowd that is different from one that is about about cute animals. The articles that are about controversial, hot issues... yeah, better say what they all agree with or nothing at all. I've learned to really think about how important it is to comment, and what value my comment can bring, or if I should just let it be that time around.
Load More Replies...ok sorry about that first comment, it was very impulsive and i feel bad 😞
STICKERS/ PAINTING ON BODY/ TATTOOS/ FAKE TATTOOS/ TAPE ON SKIN OR USED /ANYTHING LIKE THAT I HATE THEM!! They are just so gross and I gag and almost puke when I see them and there are stickers everywhere there just so nasty and sticky and ughh one time story time we’ll I was sitting there minding my own business then some gross kid on my bus but this nasty DISGUSTING shiney gold tape near me and I jumped and him and these other girls thought it was so funny that I was “scared” of tape and I was about to puke THEN HE PUT IT ON MY SHIRT and I almost puked I got nauseous and the girls were laughing and I was so grossed out. Later found out the gross boy had a crush on me yeah that’s a no for me.
Honestly everyone loves earth “protect earth” “stop it before the apocalypse” let the apocalypse begin. I’m f*****k I n g ready.
What these people said. Get help. It's out there, for free if you can't afford it. It's hard to find sometimes, but you will find something to hold on to. I'm talking from experience here. Please, I want to help you.
Most of these seem related to being introverted. Us introverts have a lot of things which are uncomfortable we are asked to do (parties, dancing, clubs, alcohol, bars, shopping, etc)., and yeah, extraverts love that stuff. But I get it. I got tired of feeling insecure in social circumstances. The issue is whether you are comfortable with your avoiding social circumstances or not. If you are comfortable and want to just do the tea-chair-cat-book thing, you-do-you. I wasn't comfortable.
Oh my gosh. I hate those giant trucks that drive around town, and everyone in a 7 mile radius can hear their giant a** truck. People think with those giant trucks that they will get all the girls or whatever, but as a female, with a few female friends; a giant truck like that is a big turn off. If you want a girl, get a car that says “I don’t mansplain” “I pay child support on time” “I clean the house” That- that’s how you get a girl. Lol
OH GOD SOCKS AND CROCS AND WEARING PJ PANTS TO SCHOOL- ITS SO WEIRD WHYYYYYY?????? AND EVERYONE ACTS LIKE ITS FINE- *dies*
does talking count..?? and its not just talking, but talking TO PEOPLE (not just being introverted, but plain social anxiety as well)
Big ugly buildings where there once was beautiful open land and vistas for miles. The 'good city fathers' have allowed some creep to put a three story, 200 unit slum way too close to the wall of our age restricted, quiet community. Noise, light and air pollution follows, not to mention crime and vandalism. We now wake to the Beep beep and bang, crash, yelling and 'musick' of the 'construction' (destruction) crews 5 days a week but 24/7 when those ugly buildings are occupied will be worse. There are more empty buildings than homeless in this area, but I guess greed prevents the intelligent use of what's already there.
