Just looking at the John Lewis advert thread....I thought it was sweet but there are people who don’t...fair enough.

But are there some things that are universally liked?

For example

A kitten, who can’t like a kitten?
.
A walk on a crisp autumn day?

Anything to do with football is vile, so not Gary L.
Yes Father Ted.

A new notepad

FuckyDuzz · 06/09/2018 23:49

I hate the feeling of clean sheets

And since having babies a good orgasm gives me really bad cramp in my thighs for ages afterwards

Tom Hanks is a good one though - surely nobody can dislike Tom Hanks

faeriequeen · 06/09/2018 23:51

A good stretch

BitOutOfPractice · 06/09/2018 23:51

Joanna Lumley?

QuestionableMouse · 06/09/2018 23:59

Umm I hate newly clean sheets. They're much better for being slept on for a night or two.

JaneJeffer · 06/09/2018 23:59

Hugs
Proper chips
Cain Dingle

I’m going to nominate Gary Lineker. Surely everyone likes him?

Ahahahahahahahaha!

DustyMaiden · 07/09/2018 00:02

Being right.

DustyMaiden · 07/09/2018 00:03

I’m right aren’t I?

JaneJeffer · 07/09/2018 00:05

Stars
Open fires

One of my DS's hates David Attenborough and can't listen to him.

LoniceraJaponica · 07/09/2018 00:07

Wow. So many negative people on here Hmm

Surely no-one would be unhappy at unexpectedly finding some money in a pocket?
I love kittens BTW.

FaFoutis · 07/09/2018 00:08

To an extent Dusty, but it needs context. Always being right when your DH is always wrong is not a good marriage, for example.

Water? and to those who say they don't love it, you will when there's nothing else to drink. Aqua Vitae!

BlopPop · 07/09/2018 04:05

Waking up in the morning and actually feeling refreshed from a really good nights sleep

Finding the perfect song to listen too that matches your exact mood at that moment

Being smiled/waved at by a young child passing by

Being cosy and warm while it rains outside

The sound of fire crackling - and the smell of just blown out candles

Longdistance · 07/09/2018 04:18

Baby bunnies anyone?

AsleepAllDay · 07/09/2018 04:20

@PeridotCricket DA advocates for population control, no thanks

tobee · 07/09/2018 04:29

My Dh doesn't like ice cream. It's too cold apparently. Hmm

Yes to Private Godfrey. I used to have him as my screen saver. But they'll be someone coming on here saying "ooh no! He needs to wee too much."

Being happy? Again, they'll be mumsnetters who say they much prefer to be miserable. Or to feel neutral.
Confused

golddustwomen · 07/09/2018 04:59

I'm with the two posters that said tom hanks!!! I mean how could you not love him

LadyOfTheCanyon · 07/09/2018 06:39

Tom Hanks has a supremely punchable face.

So that's that theory down the toilet.

CustardOmlet · 07/09/2018 06:50

@Spudlet
A properly functioning digestive system?

This!!! Nothing better than a healthy bowl movement.

No thank you, that dreadful smell of burning brings on my asthma.

Not if you’re rich, you’ll be neutral
Not if you’ve nothing or no one to spend it on.
Not if you’re ill and counting the days.
Not if you’re in captivity.
