In your opinion

I would say reality TV , don't mind people not watching it but people seem obsessed with hating it.

I agree OP , if Sewing Bee and Great Pottery throw down are reality TV then doubly so . I’m bored by how many posters claim to hate the word ‘moist’ . It’s a perfectly fine descriptive word especially useful if you enjoy a good cake

Spiders in the UK, really nothing to hate.

CounsellorTroi · 15/01/2021 16:50

Baylis and Harding stuff
Thornton's chocolates

AiryFairyMum · 15/01/2021 16:50

Agree about spiders, also mice and rats.

Pigeons. They are just birds.

Women.

AiryFairyMum · 15/01/2021 16:52

YY to pigeons. I love the noise they make.

Toddlerteaplease · 15/01/2021 16:56

Grey squirrels. I like to see them and don't mind if they aren't red.

Herring - marvellous stuff, particularly pickled [yumm].
Marzipan - food of the gods.
Solitude - bliss.
Amazon - best way to shop for mundane stuff.

Brassicaceae.
Now I know how to cook them, I love cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, Brussels Sprouts...

@JarvisCockersLeftEyebrow

Women.
I was going to say J.K. Rowling.

Otherwise, Brussels Sprouts.

Ringshanks · 15/01/2021 16:59

Also , mother -in -laws ! It seems to be the default position to ascribe dark motives to everything they say or do . Mine is fabulous but surely most are just people , good and bad like the rest of us

Weddings, giving money as a gift, gift lists for all occasions. Nights out, normal socialising, which I never realised everyone didn't do.

I bloody love reality TV....but the stuff I watch is more along the lines of Helicopter ER, saving lives at sea etc etc

Irons get a lot of hate on here.....which amuses me, because you can always tell something hasn't been ironed.

Anyone in social housing

SunsetBeetch · 15/01/2021 17:02

Spiders
Bees
Wasps
Mice
JK Rowling
Sprouts

Dirt. We need some dirt in our lives, the habit of anti-bac'ing the life out of everything is a bad one.

TheHateIsNotGood · 15/01/2021 17:03

Microwave Chips and Curry Sauce - I never thought such a thing could be possibly edible - but then I've only eaten them when very hungry, very drunk or both.

TheHamsterCatcher · 15/01/2021 17:06

Socks and sandals.

Yes, it looks ridiculous... but its so comfy!! (I only do this where nobody can see.)

missmouse101 · 15/01/2021 17:12

Spiders, correcting spellings and grammar (it's helpful to know what's incorrect) and KFC.

Drag queens are enjoyable to watch perform and aren't "womanface"
