What do think is soooo over rated?

For me it's Gin.
It's taking over the flipping spirit aisles with pink gin, rhubarn gin, parma violet gin, orange marmalde gin 😡

Get a grip folks...you've sucumbbed to marketing!!

I've lived gin for years. I'm not into all those weak flavoured gin liqueurs. These things go in waves. Twenty five years ago you couldn't move for vodkas.

Loved, not lived. I like an occasional g&t.

There's all these trendy flavours you then stick a mixer in it and bam it's gone! Trend nothing more than

Dubai, I really don't understand why everyone wants to go there???

Spas - boring and not at all relaxing to be touched by a random stranger (masseuse)

Hot chocolate 🤮

Prosecco - far too sweet, gassy and sherbety, Give me a nice dry Cremant instead.

Mumsnet

Blueberries - blackcurrants are SO much better!

Agree with you about gin too.

Bacon sandwiches.
Why is it a thing? If I wanted salty awfulness I’d ask DP to jizz between two pieces of white bread and call it a day.

Yak.

Pyjamas

Pandora jewelry. Cheap rubbish marketed to make it expensive.

Working your way to the top. When you get there you have more work, more stress and more people whinging at you. You can shove your ceo role or your prime minister jobs thanks. I could do them, I choose not to

Tesla cars. For the price the interior is shite. Nice car to drive though.

Amen to this

Regarding gin, I love the stuff. But I find any of the flavoured ones repulsive. A good dry gin with a Fever Tree of choice and I'm sorted.

Nando's

Marriage.

Twitter

Wine, prosecco, champagne all of them and anything that resembles them are absolutely rank.

All inclusive holidays abroad. I know they're not all the same but so many people I know go to spend 2 weeks sat in a hotel next to a pool with hundreds of strangers, crammed in like sardines, and get pissed every night.
(I am boring thought because one night of drinking and I'm in bed all day the next day, and I can't stand weatherboard about 15 degrees. I also have an allergic reaction to the sun)

Coffee.
Anything Disney.
Beach holidays.

Not thought, though
Not weatherboard, weather over 🙄

Le Creuset.

People's arguments in favour are that lasts for ever. I have had my Sainsbury's range since I moved into my first house 26 years ago and it cost a fraction of the price. But I guess it's something you have to own to be part of the middle class club.

Those air fryer things
Like you OP, flavoured Gin....Bombay Sapphire for me every time!

Homemade pasta.
Having lived in Italy for almost 30 years, unless you're in a restaurant famed for its homemade pasta (few and far between) trust me, it's not nearly as much as a thing or even that nice as Jamie makes it out to be.

Jo Malone- Kudos for the marketing back in the day. But 80% water (cologne) for how much? Those fancy schmancy boxes must cost £85 each given the colognes cost about £5 to make. (Yes, everyone likes them and tells other people they smell lovely- sure, because they're so simple and inoffensive there's nothing to dislike)

Hush/Mint Velvet. If I want sequins, leopard print or batwing sleeves, I'll go down the Albert Square market. Which is where it all looks like it's from anyway.

Binging on boxed sets/series. I love a good series, truly. I find the modern having to "binge" bizarre. From reading threads and talking to people it seems as addictive as kids on their mobile phones and grown men on their PlayStations. If I watched every episode all together I'd not remember any of it.

Instagram likes/followers
Disney
Starbucks (weak poo water)
Prosecco/gin/trendy drinks
Grey home decor

All alcohol. I'm sure I seem very unsophisticated of the tastebud but it all honestly tastes sharp, and horrible to me, just in different ways.
