‘Artisan’ and ‘craft’ anythings (but particularly gins - what’s wrong with good old Gordon’s?)

Going to the cinema. Of all the leisure options, it's the last one I'd ever prioritise. I'm a single parent - staying at home and watching a film is the easiest thing I can do. If I'm going out, I'm going to do something like go out for a lovely dinner.

Christmas - organising where we're going to keep everyone else happy.
Alcohol culture - not drinking means being excluded & considered boring.
GOT - nothing actually happened.
Flying hours to sit around in a foreign resort - I can do that at home. Travel is for adventure!

Flashy cars/gadgets

I agree with so many of the things mentioned in here.

Avocado. Slimy texture and tastes of nothing

Bacon - it stinks!

Gray carpets and walls

Running/ jogging

Clubercise - people can see you and you do have to be co-ordinated

Spain. - I mean there are nice parts and I plan to go to Barcelona when I can, but there are other, just as accessible places with the same climate.

Hot tubs.

Being a celebrity and all the fuss that goes with it.

Kate Moss & Pete Doherty, Adele, Ed Sheeran, all the boy bands. Just insipid, all of them.

Coffee, TV soaps, golf, celebrity reality TV shit.

Selfies by young, pouting women, straight hair, fake nails and lips, overlaid with disney-style filters giving them dogs noses or kittens ears are NOT overrated. Simply because everyone hates those ridiculous hollow projection anyway.

Gavin and Stacey. I've only recently watched it and it good and definitely has its funny moments but its not as brilliant as some people would make out.

KatherineParr4 · 01/09/2020 08:41

George Clooney. He does nothing for me.

iPhones, in fact all Apple devices.
