Yes, yes indeedy, Cat Whisperer!
I add Harley Fucking Noisy Davidson to that list.
And catalogues. Of any kind.
I seriously don’t get the current fad of chrome fuel doors on vehicles, specifically pick ups.
Examples here and here. I get it: you want to trick your truck, but often, the only thing you’ve done is put this aluminum fuel door on, and frankly, it looks dumb. But it’s extremely popular, and I just don’t get the appeal.
I don’t like alumni associations-who wants to associate with somebody you never knew at school?
The Superbowl-although sometimes the halftime show is OK.
Stock car racing: sitting out in the hot sun, inhaling exhaust fumes, and eating junk food doesn’t appeal to me.
Chinese “buffets”-like watching hogs feed.
Political speeches-listening to some hack read something that was written for him, which is saying as little as possible, using as much verbiage as possible.
On the topic of car features that have become popular that I not only don’t care for, but actively hate - low profile tires!
I’m guessing people like them because 1) the wheels are larger, and 2) the sidewalls are more rigid, improving high-speed performance. But I despise them, and I ruled out several cars that use them during my last car purchase process. I had them on my previous car, a Mazda3, and they made the ride rough to the point that driving on anything but a newly paved smooth road was a chore; the short distance between the tire surface and wheel caused me to crack a wheel after hitting a relatively minor pothole; and replacing them is EXPENSIVE and they don’t last too long.
I never plan to get another car with low-profiles. And it pretty much rules out my ever getting another Mazda, even though I like everything else about their cars.
In no particular order:
- Hummus, curry and all of the other trendy foods
- All of these Apple gadgets
- Kindle and all of the other brands
- Constantly listening to music
- Politics
- Bottled water
- MMORPGs
- Expensive cars
- Firefox
- Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, etc.
- Smartphones
- Magazines
- Political Correctness
- The singing and dancing TV show epidemic.
I could go on and on…
Super Bowl Half Time shows. Ug.
Oh, yeah, and ditto for Lord of the Rings. Yeah, I know that will get me killed on these boards.
Fruit. The most overrated of the food groups. I’ll eat bananas, peaches, apples, and strawberries. Even those I can take or leave.
Celebrity marriages. They don’t care about mine, I don’t care about theirs. At least I know mine will last.
Smart phones. If I want to talk, I’ll grab a phone. If I want to surf, I’ll go to a computer.
Kindles and Nooks. Give me paper.
Jogging. Your heart is only good for X number of beats. Why speed it up?
ipads. I have one, but the earbuds suck donkey dick.
The Heisman Trophy. Big deal. 9 times out of 10, the winners sucks ass in the NFL if he even gets that far.
I’ll join you in the Harley Davidson hatred. “Fucking noisy” is right.
You forgot to tell the kids to get offa your lawn.
The ones I see all seem to have defective mufflers. Must use cheap foreign parts.
Network TV
Gambling
“Big-time” sports.
I am somewhat bemused by Truck Nuts. I’ve seen them on trucks. Now, maybe it’s an ironic statement in some cases, but I think that most of them are actually proclamations of the driver’s masculinity.
Also, I don’t get traveling for pleasure. Especially today. I might travel to go to a specific event, or to see specific people. But I really DON’T want to just travel. I don’t even want to do a lot of driving around looking at the Xmas lights.
Cola.
Every once in a great while I’ll take a taste of Coke or Pepsi and think, “Really? People actually like this stuff? They enjoy it more than all sorts of other things they could be drinking, to the point where it’s the ubiquitous default drink? Surely all the advertising must have brainwashed them.”
They can stay on my lawn as long as they pull weeds. Little whippersnappers.
I don’t understand tea with milk and sugar. Why would you want to do that? Milk in tea tastes like vomit to me.
I only like tea with lemon and some sugar.
Beer, fish, mushrooms, “reality” TV, sports (except for Colts football an the Olympics and equestrian stuff), Twilight.
Television/Cable/Satellite programming. I haven’t watched it in over 10 years. Which means over the last 10 years I have not seen a sports program, American Idol, a reality show, or the shows *24 *and House.
Sports (except for a few Olympic events)
Alcohol (especially beer)
Religion
Children
We can not have a cola together, Thudlow Boink.
I’ve often imagined people should say, “Can I offer you a black, gassy, chemical-tasting liquid with a Burp Factor of 98%?”
I’m lovin’ all this hatin’…
