Things that everyone raves about that are actually shite

[Letmegetoff]

I'll begin...

ABBA voyage 'concert'
The London Eye
Harry Potter Studios

Another vote for the Maldives - dull AF.
I'm heartened to see I'm not the only one who thinks this. Whenever I've said it to someone they've just looked at me like I'm an idiot (they've clearly never been)

The Sistine chapel i have never been so underwhelmed in my life, small crowded so dark you cant really see the paintings on the ceiling

Marvel films (apart from Avengers Assemble), bubble baths, prosecco (cava is much nicer), pink gin (vile), designer anything, the Pre-Raphaelites, Holy Island by LJRoss (one of the worst 'bestselling' books ever written)

Another vote for sushi and Eleanor Oliphant. Also Gone Girl.

Ok, I will give this one cat a pass. But only this one.

That your teens should be hanging out with their mates, to a shopping mall, going to parties and roaming the streets without any control and that this is what friendship looks like ( ???)

Le Chameau all the way.

Traitors - over dramatic, dragged out and not very likeable people. I’ve not met anyone else who doesn’t like it so assume I’m the odd one. I usually like Claudia Winkleman.

Try Schwartz gravy in all its varieties (except lamb - I couldn't get on with that one).

Yes! My hunters split within 2 months so I got a full refund. Planning to buy le chameau for next winter.

I have to say, lots of things mentioned here that I had and loved, so disagree with. However, if I hadn't had it I'm not questioning it, lol - Maldives must be bad!

For me -
Alcohol
Fake eyelashes, lip fillers, Botox, etc.
Reality shows
True crime

Musicals
Slow cookers
Wine

IKEA meatballs

Those godawful Birkenstock sandals- you can't walk in them, they flop around all over the place and fall off your feet - and they make your feet look square - I don't need any help in that regard so back they went. And they're so expensive!

Taylor Swift. What a fuss over nothing. I can't remember a single song she's ever recorded.

Thank you!!

takeaways

Airup bottles

Who said that?

Bit niche but Night & Day cafe in Manchester - which has just come out of a lengthy noise battle with the council, so all the groovy hipster types are celebrating. Everyone raves about it but I've only ever had shit nights there (and the toilets are fucking rancid.)

Quook taps
New Years Eve
The beach
Candles and wine in the bath
Breakfast in bed
Weddings

Tony’s Chocolate.

Scotland
Fake nails
SUVs
Orange fake tan

Agree with Holy Island by LJ Ross. I like a good crime fiction but no idea why anyone liked this.

The Barbie movie. Fucking awful!

That tv show where the American coaches the football team. Can't remember what it's called

What! Thats blasphemous!
Gravy is the best thing ever, I'm actually dreading summer as it's not as easy to have gravy smothered dinners each evening 😱
