Question Of The Day, Sunday, April 7th, 2019

Pretty much hate all girly things- hair and makeup discussions, shopping, dresses etc. I'm trying very very hard to appreciate rap music but have not been successful

I have never liked:
- Mayonnaise
- Heavy metal music
- Peas
- Spicy food (although I'm getting better at tolerating more mild spices)
- Summer (much more of a spring person!)
- Clubbing
- Alcohol on its own e.g. vodka, wine etc (I much prefer alcohol mixed in drinks)
- Sports (although I do really love swimming and enjoy tennis)
- Pineapple on pizza
- Game of Thrones
- Avocado

TV talent shows like American Idol. I don't hate them, I just find them kind of boring.

Romance novels, but I like looking at the covers and imagining if my job in life was to turn what I see into a comedy.

Personally I find it erroneous to place the word music next to the word RAP!

I say "There's music, then there's noise" (rap). There's not too much music I won't listen to but rap is just an invitation to a headache.

garlic and onions.

T.v.s in restaurants and business places. Between the t.v.s and the cell phone calls, it's very irritating. I don't think we have to be entertained while eating or sitting in the doctor's office.

Reality tv, avocados, coffee, sea salt, salted caramel, kale, Harry Potter, Downtown Abbey, lobster, the list goes on.

I sometimes hate the reliance on cell phones. I like the convenience and I like the fact that in an emergency you can get a hold of anyone, and they can get a hold of you. That is a very, very good thing.
But if I'm outside for 3 hours and my phone is inside I hate calling the caller back and hearing the panic in their voices thinking I was lying dead in a gutter.
20 years ago, if you called someone and no one answered, they weren't around and you'd call back later. No big whoop. Today, you call someone and they don't answer and the assumption is that they've been dismembered and are lying in pieces along the freeway.

I despise Cilantro. @Kat0121 is one of the few members who feels the same way.

I haven't had it in a long time, but I remember thinking it tasted crap and wasn't really impressed.
Parsley is my herb 'de choice

Me too! Did you know it’s a genetic thing? I learned it on Ancestry.com. To some of us it tastes like soap.

Found this on the web:

These people have a variation in a group of olfactory-receptor genes that allows them to strongly perceive the soapy-flavored aldehydes in cilantro leaves.

All fruit except oranges, tangerines, grapefruit, lime, and lemons
All berries except raspberries (Although, I hate raspberry flavored things!), blackberries, and mulberries
The band Journey
The beach
Sunny days
Any sort of alcohol other than for cooking
Shoes
Shopping
Mayo, ketchup, and mustard
Pickles
Lettuce on sandwiches
Salad dressing, with the exception of orange French and Caeser on chicken. Dressing on salad is foul.
Vacations (I like going away for a day or two, no longer.)

Well, IVORY never noticed it tasting like soap, but I might DIAL into my senses next time I take on it's HERBAL ESSENCE.
Oops, that probably goes in the corny joke thread

Reality shows, most popular music nowadays, The Beatles, taking selfies all the time, drinking, pumpkin spice, coffee, children.

This selfie crap needs to die out.
A few selfies, sure. Take one with your cat, your dog, your horse, whatever but when you feel the urge to share 50 new ones each day (that all look alike) with everyone on the planet, it's narcissistic behavior peaking into the next generation. It's crazy and doesn't impress anyone.

Summer! I hate the heat.

Crowded hot places like the beach or amusement parks when they are both hot and crowded. I can enjoy them when it's cooler and not so crowded.

Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, The Chronicles of Narnia... Definitely not a fan of science fiction either. Jim Carey style comedy. I do like a couple Adam Sandler movies; but not most.

Forgot about Winter, it needs to go away forever. And snow is literally cloud crap and also needs to go away forever.

caffeine (anything that contains it), chocolate (it's the caffeine in it), make up (just don't see the need for it) , black olives , loud music, alcohol, overly hot or cold weather.

i don't do facebook, nor do i 'live' on a cell phone.
