Any Adult Swim-type animated shows. Neighbors from Hell, etc. And American Dad, Family Guy, and all those spin-offs. They make my head hurt and make me think I have nothing in common with the general public’s sense of humor. Which I typically don’t.

-this should be very familiar to poeple from England: young women (most often students) in super-mini dresses and super high heels (when every step is a challenge)on a Friday nigh out. why do they want to get so exposed? does it help to feel seexy when 85% of their bodies is showing and drunk 45+ males are giving them dirty looks?
-clubbing. wtf? I tried and found it painfully pointless. sweaty, crowded, too loud to talk.
-harry potter. cheap shit.
-celebrity gossip. gives me cold shivers. why on earth would anyone care?
-English magazines like Ok or Hello or Heat and freakish stories like ” I’m in love with my husband’s dead brother’s ghost and all I want is to have his baby”
-religion
-pop music or dance music, it just doesn’t have any music in it, it’s tinny and flat and gives me headaches
-jeans with glitter or butterflies

it’s good fun making such lists

Everyone acts like we live on a planet where it’s illegal to eat outside but they’re finally getting a brief opportunity to do this wild thing of actually *eating outside*.

And you must be some kind of uptight Puritan if you don’t want to enjoy your lunch or dinner amidst car exhaust, blinding sun, and street noise.

Also chocolate chip cookies. People act like chocolate’s illegal, and omg, we get to actually eat a cookie with some bits of chocolate in it! Quick before we get caught!

Like people who think clowns are funny, it seems to me a kind of mentality for someone without their own ideas – eating al fresco and chocolate chip cookies somehow signify official fun.

Why “reality shows” are called “reality shows”;

Why anyone would buy into the idea that hair grease makes a guy look sexy or makes women want to run their fingers through his hair;

Why actors put up with scripts requiring them to act like its normal for everyone to be sitting around smoking or why anyone would not think there was tobacco company money involved at some level;

Movies where actors are cast to play a character of an obviously different race or age than the actor is when there are perfectly good actors around who fit the character’s description in the script.

I don’t want to pay money to stand in a dark, crowded room for several hours trying to make out the words to songs I can’t sing along to because a.) I’ve never heard them and b.) the acoustics in the room suck.

I have too many hipster friends and they brag all the time about what random obscure band they saw at That One Festival In That Unexpected Location.

I’m starting to think there’s something seriously wrong with me.

p.s. I’m a Coldplay fan.

Beer I have to include as well and I really do want to like it!

Also The Office, well basically every show or movie based around people being in awkward social situations. Why watch it when it happens way to often in real life?

This thread has really made me realise how easily swayed I am by the opinions of the people I hold in esteem.

That said, here’s mine:
-the band Genesis, and anything Phil Collins ever did (this probably dates me a bit)
-Everybody Loves Raymond (omg, they definitely do NOT)
-Scary movies (it’s like people got together and were like “hey, what can we produce that’s the OPPOSITE of fun???”)
