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 😊

White wine, absolutely vile.

LaBellina · 02/10/2021 09:46

Oh forget about that one. I hate white wine too, gives me headaches and stomach pain and most of it tastes too acid for my taste. I do love sake but because it’s rice wine and not made with grapes.

@thesearelaughterlines haven’t we all 😩

Funnily enough if I have a stomach ache (as I often do with my IBS) white wine (or any colour for that matter) makes it better.
I also agree with the lady who dislikes nights out - I just don't 'do' them any more.

The Hale and Pace Yorkshire Airlines sketch. Utter crap. Unfunny. Stereotyped.

Abba.

The Beatles. I change the station if they come on the radio.

disconnected101 · 02/10/2021 16:42

And I hate how it's almost blasphemous in some circles to say 'The Beatles are shite.'

Whatsitbeen · 02/10/2021 19:13

@Builderscrack we may actually be twins. Also hate Christmas and about 95% of people!

Dogs. I don’t dislike them personally but they’re totally unsuitable as pets and I feel so sorry for them, being forced into such lonely and unnatural lives. Anyone fancy being castrated and pulled round on a lead?

Dyed hair, unless it’s arty and multicoloured. Highlights look totally shit, like stripes of baked and broken hair hiding in the normal hair.

Those finger nails that look glassy and reflective.

Agree with you about Dirty Dancing. I hate Donuts but everyone else I know seem to love them.

MouseholeCat · 03/10/2021 00:06

Chinese takeaway, dogs.

Agree about dogs. Don't like them but also think it's very unfair to have them as pets and the breeding which causes problems for some is downright cruel.

MyGhastIsFlabbered · 16/10/2021 17:57

Strictly. Every year when my mum phoned me she gives me a blow by blow account of that week's events, despite never watching it or giving any indication it interests me
