I think my main reason for disliking TBBT is because I hate watching shows with laugh tracks. I find them insanely annoying. That and the few episodes I saw of the show barely made me crack a smile. I think I'll put "Any show that has a laugh track" on my list. |
I used to be a Family Guy fan than I grew up. My reasons for not watching are because of the repeative jokes or ones that drag on (Conway Twitty), the blatant Liberal bias, and how the characters are more obnoxious and mean spirited than funny. Now we have more cream of the turds form the same log American Dad, Cleveland Show.
I am a Big Bang fan but this season hasn't been anything special plus I hate the Leonard/Penny relationship (I only started hating it this season).
Lord of the Rings series and the Hobbit: I could never pay attention long enough but to each its own
Fifty Shades of Grey: I thought the Twilight fan fiction thing was just someones personal opinion but that's not why I dislike it. I am bothered with the fact it is basically about being a millionaire's sex slave that is the only plot, it is very poorly written it's what would happen if really bad porn was written instead of watched.
Taylor Swift: It seems that a majority of her songs are about trashing her exes (classy) and gets all butthurt whenever someone makes a joke about her.
There are no stupid questions, just stupid people!

I remember I bought the books for someone and then they rang me back and told me these books were disgusting. I didn't even read the cover, I just grabbed them off the shelf and paid for it.
And I agree with you about Taylor Swift. She makes songs that trash her exes. Maybe that's a sign that people should stay away from her.

-I agree with everyone on the new disney TV shows (ANT, Victorious)...I like the classic Disney movies.
-Beer....everyone is constantly downing beer at parties in college while I sit in the corner with wine or a liquer drink. I despise it's taste.

I hate coffee. I've tried it pretty much every single way, and I just can't stand the taste of it. Doesn't matter if it's in a drink or food form (like chocolate with coffee center, yuck!)
I also hate the harlem shake, gangnam style, and really, almost anything viral as most of it is really pointless to me.
Apple. Yes, the company. Hate them and their overpriced products. And this coming from an aspiring graphic designer no less. I can't tell you how many arguments I got into with some of my teachers over apple vs. windows.
Also, bacon. I don't know what's about it, too salty, crunchy, or what, but I can't stand it. The one exception is the little bits on cheese fries.
Other things off the top of my head: the Twilight series, mushrooms, cats (I'll play with them, but at the end of the day, I'm glad they're not mine), the Hobbit (didn't like the book, so I never bothered to get into the whole LotR stuff), the smell of any cologne or men's body spray (with the exception of one scent), american football, beer, and wine (I'm a liquor/liqueur girl).

Bacon? Isn't that a basic food group, like cookies.
I. HATE. PEANUT BUTTER. even in cookies or candy. GAG! Also dislike taste of beer. Sometimes drink wine just to be cool, but don't like anything alcoholic. Tried smoking (years ago, when it was Cool), also GAG.
Sweet-smelling cologne on men.
How about "Things other people hate, but YOU love"? I love the smell of a man who's a bit sweaty and...um...hot?
Stand up, speak out. Just not to me..

It's not really full-on hate, but, really, I don't see what the big deal is about Halestorm. Her songs just seem generic at best (though I will admit that she does have a good voice when she uses it), her two most "well-known" ones are "I Get Off" (which is kind of accidentally funny, in kind of a "so bad it's almost good way"), and "Freak Like Me" which makes me mentally facepalm every time I hear it come on.
And the station I listen to the most plays it fairly regularly, and one of the DJs on there is also a huge fan, and I hear about her fairly often from other sources, so it can get a little annoying sometimes. Even moreso seems to be the fact that everyone likes to emphasize how hot she is. Yes, she's pretty, but she's a rock/metal artist, not a top 40 pop princess. Looks aren't supposed to take a backseat to musical quality here (yes, I do know that the music industry as a whole is shallow, and statements like the one I just made make me sound naive, still though...).
Also, glad to see that I'm not alone in hating The Big Bang Theory here. I used to just not really care for it, but I found out a couple things about it which left a really bad taste in my mouth. I forgot where I first stumbled on the link, but I found this a rather interesting read, especially the part where it mentions that Sheldon appears to (according to a professional) exhibit many signs of having severe Asperger's. I recently talked with my mom while visiting her (she's a fan of the show), and I mentioned it to her. She replied back that she had heard them talk somewhere about how the creators were aware of it, and that Sheldon actually is supposed to have Asperger's or something similar to it. And they still make things like his social awkwardness and several other of his "symptoms" the butt of most of the jokes on the show. Also, during that episode, I kept seeing the characters seriously talking down to Sheldon as if he was a little kid (and a particularly slow-learning one at that) when he didn't seem to understand that he'd said/done something rude (another symptom), despite the fact that one of the hallmarks of Asperger's is the fact that people who have it tend to possess extremely high to genius-level intelligence (in fact, there are scientific studies I've heard about cross-referencing child prodigies without Asperger's to people who do have it, due to the close correlation).
I've begun to kind of agree with the article about the whole "mocking geek culture while pretending to celebrate it" bit as well. I saw part of an episode where the four main ("geek") characters had built a home-made laser that was powerful enough that it could be used to tag a lunar crater (which is exactly what they were doing). And the "non-geeky" characters were all kind of eye-rolling about how excited the other four were getting over it.
Personally, I freaking love space. Awhile ago, I found an old t-shirt at the store with the NASA logo on it, and I personally consider it not only my best find of this year, but it also became my new favorite t-shirt. Because, SPAAAAAAAAAACCCEEEEEEE! And I also love guys that are actually intelligent. If I met a guy in real life who was able to do what those four did, they'd risk getting an armful of redhead trying to shove their tongue down his throat, because that was awesome.
So fuck you, Big Bang Theory.

I hate the world's preoccupation with all things supernatural.
First it was vampires. And now it's The Walking Dead.
The idea that folks find a steadily decreasing population of humans, continuously on the run and living in fear of unholy creatures that thwart the natural order, extremely attractive is perverse.
And what will the end of all this be?
Nobody's doing any research. And even if they were, what natural concoction could successfully combat a supernatural epidemic?
Every human that is bitten or even scratched, eventually becomes a zombie. No zombie has been converted back into a fully functioning human being. Thus the human race is doomed.
And there are lots of folks out there rooting for the zombies. That's a really nihilistic attitude to say the very least.

The Big Bang Theory. It started out okay but now the entire show seems to focus solely on the relationship drama between the main characters. It's not even remotely amusing and the laugh tracks make it worse.

I've never really liked all the supernatural thing either. It seems like almost every channel wants to jump on the bandwagon and have some bad show about the supernatural.

That's not an entirely new concept. Just a variation on the devil and hell concept and the evil gods.

People's knees.
Who the hell finds knees attractive? They're effing weird, is what they are. I mean seriously. Cover your knees up if you're going to be walking around all over the place.

Yeah, that's been happening to me a lot lately. I've always preferred dark, but would eat milk chocolate as well. Now though, for some reason, I can't stand much milk chocolate anymore. I guess I've been eating too much dark. But that's ok, dark chocolate is better for you (in small amounts of course).

Mozart is another one I don't get.
I listen to some classical music, mostly the standards of the late classical and romantic era (1800-1900, thereabouts).
Not long ago I read a comment somewhere that said Mozart didn't so much compose music, but rather musical exercises.
That's the ticket - complicated compositions that don't necessarily translate into memorable melodies.
There's only one Mozart tune I like, Piano Concerto #21 Andante.
The rest I can do without.
