Have you ever hated something that seems very popular with everyone else ?

Just for fun so no sarcasm or nastiness please .
My friend and I went to see a West End musical this week . I was really looking forward to it . Great reviews . Celebrity cameos . Camp and fun . Seemed right up our street .
We both hated it . We were turning to each other with puzzled looks and raised eyebrows (we've known each other forever and have very similar tastes so no words needed) .
The audience seemed off their tits to be honest . Screeching at every unsubtle innuendo . Shouting responses to the actors . It was like a really bad hen do .
We left at the interval .
My point is that everyone else seemed to be having a great time . The staff who opened the doors to allow us to leave at the interval were incredulous . I quote : "Are you not enjoying it ?!"
Well no , we weren't . We thought it was shit .
This is a show that is up for lots of awards and has had so many positive reviews .
Have you ever hated something that everyone else seemed to love ?

Sorry if this is a silly question but did you like any if the songs in Hamilton? I'm not mad about the whole show but I think some of the songs are brilliant

I've always hated Oasis. I actually like a lot of Britpop songs/bands (Suede being my favourite) but I've always found Oasis to be sooo dreary & can't bear the way Liam sings on stage with his hands behind his back just stood there. He may have improved over the years, I don't know. I do actually quite like Noel & Liam's stuff away from Oasis & think they're quite funny in interviews but I have to turn the radio over if one of their songs comes on

I love music and concerts but really dislike musicals for some reason.

Transgenderism
Drag
Surrogacy

So agree on Star wars , and actually Harry Potter annoys me.

Dubai chocolate 🤢

House Music. Over 50 - went to Ibiza, loved the Island, the beauty, the people....but def not the music. Sorry to those that love it...def not my vibe!

Friends the sitcom

Similarly. .... We Will Rock You. Wanted to see it for years. Love Queen. Thought it was a load of crap.

Love Actually, Bread, Pulled meat

This thread reminds me of the famous Roy Keane quote. “3 things that are overrated, fireworks, parties and smiling”

@OverheardBreakup there’s a UK Superstore?! I loved the US Superstore but had no idea there was a UK one. Also I agree, US The Office is superior, I can’t watch the British one as it’s the wrong side of uncomfortable for me!

Les Miserables.

When I was at school it was netball often forgot to pivot such a stupd rule.

Game of Thrones

Shein. Tried it once to see what all the fuss was about; delivery took so long that I’d forgotten what I’d ordered and the quality was so utterly rubbish that it went to the charity shop.
And dogs in restaurants. I live in a scenic “walking” part of the country and one of the sells is that dogs are welcome - a local pub/restaurant even has their own two wandering aimlessly around. Following a very severe dog allergy as a child (very much milder now) I’ve had nothing to do with dogs and I don’t want them sitting by my chair when I eat.

This is with most musicals. I've slept through Les Mis, Wicked, Miss Saigon, The Lion king. Nearly every single one.

YES

Matilda the musical, gave me a headache. Just horrible.

I fell asleep watching Mrs Browns Boys, it was dreadful. But it's not a musical.
Was it Priscilla Queen of the Dessert? A friend went to see it recently and the people next to her left at half time.

Strictly Come Dancing. I tried it once, and loathed it so much I turned it off about half way through.

Mary Berry

All 'reality' TV shoes... every single one
We will Rock you... what a steaming pile of poo that musical was (and I LOVE musicals)
Hot chocolate. Chocolate should be solid!

Shows, not shoes, damn it!😂
