Guns. I don’t have anything against guns. I just don’t get the fascination some people have with them.
Religion. I don’t think anyone really believes in any of that garbage. I have a suspicion that it’s all an elaborate hoax and I’m the mark. OK guys you got me good. Joke’s up. I’m on to you. Can we move on now?
Romantic Comedies. Bleh, just bleh.
Cribbage. People have attempted to teach me this game on several occasions. I hate it.
General Motors automobiles. I don’t like any vehicle produced by GM in the last 20 years. I can’t really place a finger on why exactly that is. The Geo Metro is the only example of a vehicle that GM distributed that I have any respect for, but that was actually a Suzuki. And the new Chevrolet HHR is OK too, I suppose, but that’s basically GM’s very late answer to the Chrysler PT Cruiser.
I roll my own cigarettes, and I have no idea why everyone doesn’t do the same. Halfzware shag is the only choice for me. Yes, I know I shouldn’t smoke at all. Lemme be.
I hate all new car design. I shake my head in dismay whenever I see a brand new aerodynamic crossover, which is all the time. What is wrong with people? Why do they buy these? I will never understand. I want my car to look serious, like it can take off-road experiences and look good covered with mud in the country. That works on my 1993 Mitsubishi Montero but the Ford Edge? Are you kidding me? The Chevy HHR? The Dodge Nitro? AAAAAAHHHHHHHH! This makes me mad, really mad. Sure, my Montero has problems because it is 14 years old but it handles so well off and on the road, I have to admit it is a tad top heavy. People are amazed when I give them a ride or show them how spacious the interior is or about the headroom. I am 6’6’’ and can’t fit in most cars comfortably but there is so much damn headroom in my vehicle like the Land Rovers. In conclusion, yeah I know you’re not supposed to say “in conclusion”, but yeah I hate new cars. Or should I say I am not interested in them.
beer pong, wearing my hat crooked, shouting random obscenities
Movies that are heavily advertised and flashy that use too much CGI
The war
Heroine (phew), cocaine, pills
Being 6’6’’ (because everybody thinks I play basketball, see above for reason why I don’t play basketball) and also I hit my head on everything :smack:
PS Biking, in my opinion, does not count as a sport rather a recreational activity
Movies - I’ve only seen 3 movies in the theater in the last 6 years, and I had no real desire to go to any of them.
TV - I could definately live without a TV. I don’t think I’m going to be buying a new one once the one I have now finally dies.
Myspace - I’ve never had the slightest desire to set one of these up. I’ve had people look at me like I’m from another planet when they ask for my myspace and find out I don’t have one.
Music - It’s not that I never listen to music, I just don’t constantly have it on to drown out the rest of the world like some people do. I find it distracting when I’m trying to do something else.
Kids - I never, ever want to have kids. I don’t want to be around yours, either.
Going out to bars or clubs - Just not my idea of a good time.
I try to maintain at least a minor interest in almost everything, but I really don’t care for most rap/country music, and silent movies dont do much for me neither.
Most other people’s children (I have a couple of young cousins that I enjoy - in small doses - but other than that, I really don’t give a shit about your children)
What kind of car you drive. Having a BMW or Lexis does not make me think you are special.
Christmas. Easter as well, but Christmas is right up there.
Details as to fine food and wine etc. I’m really not interested, and nothing about that stuff stays in my head.
Most Internet “community” things these days. I don’t have time for it (except visiting here) and I don’t miss it.
Fashion.
I’ll take an interest in what kids say to me (I like talking to my friends’ kids, because they have a heck of a lot more imagination than most adults), but I’m not interested in having some for myself.
And I’m not interested in either the opposite sex or the same sex (some may say “Ha! That’s just because you’re alone and bound to stay that way!” But I’m not in a deep dark depression about it. I find being in charge of myself challenging and a lot more fun.)
Yeah me too. I like nice food and I like nice wine. But that’s about all I remember about it, it tasted nice. My wife can remember what we ate at a particular restaurant at a particular time.
Her: “Remember when we went up the Sydney tower and I had the pesto garlic chicken and you had the Spotted liver?”
Me: “umm, I remember being in Sydney”
I must say that one dish I do remember having was patagonian toothfish. Mainly because it is a fairly rare thing to see on a menu and it had recently been in the news.
It is interesting the comments about Myspace and Facebook. I had no interest in that kind of thing until my mother sent me an invite to Facebook. I signed up and have since found a heap of people from school who I hadn’t seen for 15 years. All of my Facebook “friends” are real friends or family, and it seems like a neat way to keep in touch. I’m sure the novalty will wear off.
Arts and crafts would be something I don’t do and have no particular interest in.
Maybe it would be more interesting to find out what we are interested in but for whatever reason have never got around to doing.
“Social Networking” sites - I prefer to make real friends, the rest is just chatter.
Reality TV shows.
Sport.
Children.
Any pet that’s not a cat or a ferret.
Work
Christmas
'im indoors and his WoSW addiction.
-social networking sites; I have plenty of real life social interactions, and “social interactions” over the internet strikes me as something of an oxymoron.
-fantasy world-type novels; they’ve always bugged me. “Always” as in, the 4 or 5 times between the ages of 15 and 25 that I actually tried reading them.
-most professional sports; I’ll occasionally watch a game but only if nothing else is on and only so I can carry on a minor level of knowledgeable conversation with coworkers about it.
-game consoles (PS3, Wii, whatever) and video games; this goes into the “get a life” category.
I’m sure there are dozens more, but given the depth of my lack of interest, I can’t think of them off the top of my head.
Hi Annie, nice to meet you. I have never had one either.
People often react to this fact of my life as if I’d just told them I was from Uranus. My rebuttal is usually: “Most people in New York don’t drive cars”. It doesn’t faze them, they can’t conceive of someone not knowing how to drive.
