Was watching a music countdown the other day and one of the songs from dirty dancing came on, I casually mentioned to my mum how I like the song but dislike the movie.... my mum almost lost her shit....
Like it was a criminal offence to not like it.
Tell me something you dislike but everyone loves..
Can be anything 😊

Summertime. I spend the entire season drifting from on air conditioned place to another. I love early Spring, Fall, and Winter. I ADORE snow. I love wrapping up to go out. I love everything about the "dark" half of the year. You may have my Summer, with my good will.

This thread is bugging me because the OP asked for things you dislike that everyone loves and many of the things mentioned aren’t things that most people love. I’m being pedantic though I know!!

Mine is nights out. On the whole I do feel most people love a night out but I’d rather have minor surgery.
