Things that everyone raves about that are actually shite

[Letmegetoff]

I'll begin...

ABBA voyage 'concert'
The London Eye
Harry Potter Studios

Air fryers
Clothes shopping on a weekend
Facials
Saltburn - couldn't get into it
Love island
Birkenstocks - not comfy
Above ankle jeans. Look great but cold ankles.
Festivals - standing for ages, queues for toilets, sleeping in a tent in a noisy field.
Smellies/lotions etc. as gifts.
Heated airer - not much faster than on a normal airer.

But maybe the middle class kids could do with seeing how other people live and helping where they can.

Joined up handwriting?

That seems quite a niche dislike there..😂

Dyson hairdryer

@DaBlackCatsAreDaBestCats

This Tory government. Full of liars, cheats and thieves

TBF - I don't think I've ever come across anyone with anything good to say about them !

"Hobbies"

Democracy

There’s a recent thread about feeling sorry for the scumbags. A number of people still support them, a few wholeheartedly. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hunter boots - I could never understand this craze. We had to wear rubber boots when we were kids; they are sweaty, heavy and chaffed your calves.

Caveat: I would say that these people/things are 'overrated' rather than 'shite'.

The Beatles (good band, not The Greatest Band to Ever Be)
The Kardashian-Jenners (dire, over made up, cheap ugly women who people aspire to be like, god knows why)
Kate Moss ( Was striking in her day but hasn't looked good for about twenty five years and the party girl act is old)
Ben&Jerry's ice cream, so sweet that you can't actually taste anything except sugar.
Louis Vuitton handbags.
The Barbie movie.
Ryan Gosling.
The Royal Family now that the Queen is dead.
Taylor Swift.
Oodle dogs.
Salted caramel.
Hotel Chocolat and also Tony's Chocolonely
Pinot Grigio
Love Island/Influencers/Plastics
Tomato Ketchup
Basque Cheesecake
Vino Verdhe
Tiffany's jewellery
Friends (the show, not having friends!)
Nightclubs
Romeo and Juliet: not one of Shakespeare's best plays
Going out and getting very drunk

What's that ?

Oh plenty do. They voted last time in their droves. Let’s hope next time round they’re not all so quick for another shafting

Modern musicals a la Hamilton. In fact anything Lin Manuel. Cannot stand that semi rap singing.
Agree with Irregular Choice shoes. Too hard dressing up shoes for twee grown ups.

Being an older mum=WHY
Kate= Boring
Harry and megen = Old news
Wine = Yuk
Uni = Debt

Nasty rose wine beloved of instahuns.

Dubai.

I went to see Hamilton last month as my sister had tickets. I have to admit I was dreading it as I’d started watching it on Disney+ and thought “nope”. However I really enjoyed it live.

Yep. Don’t get the love. Talentless twat

They are those enormous things that look like an ankle length coat crossed with a dressing gown and much loved by Outdoor Swimmers and sadly now School Gate Mums and the occasional football club manager. F**king annoying.

You're going to have to explain this one to me....

Prosecco
Musicals
Dunken donuts
Spa days
Pizza Hut

@Meowandthen
Oh really? I'll stand corrected then.

Ubers
Long distance travel
SUVs

Scallops: tried for the first time on holiday last week. Utterly repulsive
Toe post flip flops. Sheer agony

@LovelyTheresa

What is Basque Cheesecake?
