Things that everyone raves about that are actually shite

[Letmegetoff]

I'll begin...

ABBA voyage 'concert'
The London Eye
Harry Potter Studios

Croissants
Under-floor heating
Center Parcs
Pandora bracelets

Honestly, you just can't compare it to any real live performance, it's soulless. They must be making an absolute fortune from it though.

I'm convinced filming is banned because then everyone would realise how rubbish it is

Festivals

The Traitors, including Claudia Winkleman, can't stand her.

Also, totally agree about salted caramel. Really pisses me off that you can't get a dessert with normal caramel anymore when you go out for a meal 😡

A video they insist on playing to you - unless it's a mutual passion and understanding, IDGAF what it is, I cannot stand having any video, ever, shoved in my face and being forced to watch, laugh despise you.

War Horse
Matilda
Hairdryers

Carnivals, pantomimes, Am Dram ( as an audience member, great fun for participants but crap to watch), David Attenborough, caravans, Prosecco.

Yesss totally agree with salted caramel and underfloor heating. Shit!

🤣

I agree with a lot of these but have to disagree about The Killers. They are amazing live, going again this summer

Selfies
Camping
Going to the gym
Primark
BBQs
Spa days

What’s up with underfloor heating? I’d love that.

Gin

Center parcs
Cockapoos
Cats
Coldplay

Oh no! I'm booked to take the kids to the Harry Potter studio tour 😭. I agree the London eye is shite. Although it was ok in covid times because no overseas visitors meant no queues.

I loved the London Eye.

Yes to ABBA Voyager - proper waste of an evening
Prosecco
Bottomless brunches
Dubai
Hen parties / baby showers
Redecorating

to the person that said Labradoodles - you are very unreasonable!

M and S changed the recipe about 10 years ago. It used to be delicious before then

Hen dos, pink sparkly dialdoed bitchinness…

This is the worst cat I've ever seen.

Theme parks
Water parks
Big hotels, even 5* ones
Wild swimming
National Trust
Chocolate cake
Zumba

I love the Maldives and Matilda though

Me too! You go up really high and see all the things then you come down again. Maybe my expectations were simple and well aligned.

I know people who have been and said it was excellent, but then, they didn't see them for real in the 70s.

I bloody love the studio tour. Yes, it is pretty much a museum but for fans it is great. There are staff all over the place that will show you props close up and tell you lots of things you might not know. There is enough interactive stuff to make it fun I think.

If it had cost about a fiver I'd have been impressed.
