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 😊

Mama Mia.
Was so excited when I got the dvd as everyone was raving about it. 5 minutes in I was so disappointed and at the end completely underwhelmed. Thought the whole thing was terrible.

Told my aunt and she got really cross with me saying I was the only person who didn't like it and couldn't understand me

Bananas and anything containing them. Even if "you cannot taste the banana at all".

Mint chocolate. I do like mint and chocolate, just not together

White chocolate. It is not chocolate.

Long car rides through the country. I cannot sit still for so long.

Movies > 90 minutes. Did I mention that I cannot sit still for so long?

I don't like that movie either pure cringe. I dislike Love Actually also. Hen nights. Strictly and most shows like that. People calling unexpectedly to my door, barely answer unless know who it is. Going to the hairdressers which I do but do not enjoy it as too much noise.

Eggs. The smell alone turns my stomach - no idea how people willingly put forkfuls of them in their mouths.

@peachgreen

These threads never end well, but mint chocolate is the devil's food. Tastes like dirt.
I agree about mint chocolate! Why would you eat toothpaste and chocolate? Bleurgh

Also Stranger Things.

Maskless · 29/09/2021 04:57

Coffee.

Alcohol, esp beer, wine, whiskey. But I can tolerate sweet fruit cider.

Celebrities.

Soaps.

Bake off and all that kind of thing.

Any kind of make up on my face -- especially foundation. I don't like it on other people either.
