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 😊

Tattoos, spinach, kale......and neighbours' teenage children...from experience at previous addresses as well. Not really noise, though there is that, but such unfriendly, miserable little gits.

Cakes. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve eaten a slice of cake out of politeness.

StMarysKettle · 29/09/2021 07:34

Prosecco. I can't think of a less classy drink but people lose their shit over it.

I’m with you there. My in-laws love it and we get to watch it lots when they come to stay over. I have to sit there and pretend to find it funny!

Onions,garlic, anything spicy! Also horror movies ,coffee , very hot weather and strappy tops/flip flops (unless worn on the beach obv)! Dont like Podcasts or Mamma Mia! Worst film I have ever seen I think .

Those huge open plan kitchen/living rooms that everyone seems to have nowadays. Where the whole downstairs is basically one room. Why would you do that to your house?
