Things that everyone raves about that are actually shite PART 2

[LovelyTheresa]

Romcoms. Love Actually is the worst one, but it isn't the only one. I also loathe Notting Hill, Four Weddings, and most of the other ones as well. Pretty Woman is dire. I far prefer Old Hollywood screwball comedies. Some Like it Hot has to be the most perfect comedy ever, it is so funny and it is romantic without being schmaltzy.

Oh my big one (and almost nobody seems to agree with me on this) is DAVID ATTENBOROUGH.

I can’t bear the whispery-voiced old pillock.

.

Krispy cream donuts
Aperol spritz
Doc martens sandals
Charlotte tilbury makeup

Yep same with Paloma Faith - over-affected huskyness. Cringe.

Yes! They're crap

Downton Abbey. Utter bore off.

I once watched an episode and the music was very dramatic as if something very dramatic was going to happen, but they were just loading chairs into a van.

What am I missing?

You are not alone. I feel I have missed out on loads of nature / wildlife TV because I cannot cope with his voice.

Imagine being a young wildlife film maker aspiring to be David Attenborough, except you can't cos he refused to retire

😂😂

Nooooooooo!!

Don't diss The Attenborough.

Apparently, when he dies there's going to be a day off for all.

All the animals.

All we'll get is a Daily Mail exposé on how he was actually a bit of a shit or something.

Thank you. This in spades

Did you like her in Mary Poppins 2?! 🤣

I've seen it on Disney+ a few times as dd1 absolutely loves it and I still can't quite understand what they're singing/rapping about as it's so fast but I think the songs are absolutely brilliant

Pugs. They struggle to breathe, it’s not cute.
Media walls, they’re dating quicker than the all-grey trend!
The “when I wake up, I will be (age)” pjs trend. I don’t get it!

Amen to
baby showers
bridal parties and weddings outside of anybody you genuinely care about
girlie things- spas, nails, massages etc
any forced joviality for the ‘gram etc
fake scents including those candles
work do’s that go on too long
oversharing. Insta friendships

ive realised I’m a complete misery! 😂😂

Your Song by Elton John. I fucking hate every second of it. Particularly the words that a 5 year old could do better. "If I was a sculptor, but then again no" and rhyming "words" with "world". Can't believe that this song kick started his career. I like some of his other stuff though

Wicked
Pizza
Hummus
Eating out generally, often very poor and very expensive
Cockapoos, just get a fucking poodle, a much quieter better behaved dog, everyone thinks our poodle is a cockapoo
Poodle crosses, see above
Cadacs

Definitely with you on Rom coms. Especially featuring Hugh Grant. And Nandos is shite. So fucking DRY!!!

Also-

Pizza
Christmas
Any sport apart from football or boxing
Soho- used to be cool, completely flattened of all cultural significance by Boris Johnson et al
Pret a manger
Iced tea or coffee
Social media
Large dogs
Hot tubs
Dancing (doing or watching)
Being heterosexual
False eyelashes
Star wars

To be fair I’m not sure I’ve actually heard anyone raving about being heterosexual.

Dyson hoovers. Get a Henry every time.

Media walls and the colour grey both give me nightmares!
So many estate agents pics on Rightmove look as though they’ve been taken with a black and white camera!

What’s a media wall? Is it where you have your flat screen telly?

I’m happy being a misery!

Scrunch bum shorts and leggings, particularly flesh coloured ones.
Caterpillar false eyelashes. They must weigh down your eyes.
Baby showers
Week long hen and stag dos.
Sweet potato anything
Pork belly
Dogs, especially the one constantly barking here.
Tea, unless it accompanies a fantastic afternoon tea.
Football
