things you don't 'get' that the majority of people love
 

what things that are popular with the vast majority of people in your peer group that you don't like?

i never 'got' Star Wars, anal sex holds no interest for me, super hero comic books, birthday cake .........

what are yours?

jager :Oh crap

girls kissing - nice - but id rather look at their tits n pussies...

waffles - self explanitory

rap or hiphop music

Regional sports team pride.

You're cheering for an entertainment corporation because you came out of a vagina near it.

Not even like.. one of those triple chocolate fudge type cakes?!
Insanity.


I don't get why people are so empty, selfish and transparent to the core. Why people are hell bent on the worship of god money when there are so many things they miss along the way.

I don't get why people love to spend their entire lives building cages for themselves.


...and starbucks.

watching sports...

What he said.

I am still trying to come to grips with many in this industry (peers) devotion to the following movies and shows:
Scarface
Godfather -any
Casino
Goodfella's
Entourage

Plus full on man love for Pacino and Deniro.

I am leaning towards the whole fuck the system, be rich, lifestyle or something that many dream to obtain. Still not fully clear on it yet, just many really and I mean really envy these movies and show. I do not think they were bad movies, just do not get the whole devotion aspect or following.

Sports, especially NFL. The only exception in University of Oklahoma football, but only because I live 7 miles from the stadium and my son will be going there in a couple years.

Starbucks. Been in one once, but only because they were selling hot apple cider on a really cold day and I was walking by.

haha almost spot for me its scary.. except for super hero comics i used to like them when i was a kid, now not at all though.

ive got a whole theory about why people like birthday cakes but that's another story

I don't get sports team pride or why people care for a sports team...

I also don't get clubbing or going to the bar.. I don't see the point. I don't dance, I don't drink and I DON'T WANT TO MEET OR TALK TO ANYONE. It's not fun. It's more comfortable to hang out at home where I have a computer and a big screen tv, what's so fun about being in a place where the music is so loud you can hear your ears ringing?

I also don't get why people like to go to Vegas all the time to party? Why is that so popular with young people... Why can't you party in your own town? I don't like to party at all so I just don't care for it. I went there and saw nothing special. Just a bunch of bright lights and every hotel looks the same from the inside... What's so fun about gambling?

Birthday cake is good, not because it's birthday related but because it's food and I'll eat any kind of cake as long as it's good. It can't be the cake you buy at the grocery store, it has to be good cake. I also like ice cream cake. I live to eat.

no i like lots of cakes - i'm talking about the traditional white birthday cake with the white icing and some flowers on it and Happy Birthday Timmy written on it - even when i was a kid at birthday parties I didn't want it. Sickening sweet to me and i don't even know what flavor it was - i guess vanilla.

today people use all kinds of cakes for birthday cakes but when i was a kid you went to the store and that's the birthday cake they made.

great - now i'm dying for a chocolate cake :mad:

I too have been in a starbucks a few times. Well technically not that often. I think I was in one in the lobby at the Florida internext, not 100% sure but i got myself some gelato. Then I seem to encounter one starbucks way to often but that is because they took up residence in the middle of Barnes and Nobles bookstore where I live. If I want to check out the magazine section or a few others I must wheel through that area.
I have tried them before in the past out of curiosity, few different locations and never cared for their coffee and placed them on last resort list for it.

coffee and wine ...things I wish I enjoyed because others appear to get so much out of them but I don't

50 Cent, Soulja Boy

The cake has to be made french style like from a french bakery, the make good cakes with nice light cream that's not sickeningly sweet. Any cake from a grocery store will have nasty icing on it. Don't eat cake from the grocery store. If you had a cake from a nice bakery it wouldn't be like that.

i always enjoy your misanthropic ways - they amuse me and sadden me a bit.

ahhh yea, then I'm with you on that one completely.

Someone posted this recently. I haven't tried it... bit if you're dying for cake... maybe its worth a shot.

Ah run of the mill yellow or white cake with royal icing frosting. Almost like they coat it in a soft sugar jacket that can actually be peeled off. Then hiding inside between the layers was another layer of that frosting or perhaps butter cream frosting also super spiked with sugar. Then some scary ass liquid food coloring icing is used to pipe the names on, which is so potent it will stain a tongue and teeth. Perhaps some hard as rock sugar candy numbers to add to the whole sick sugar overload. Then some plastic toy or something stuck to it along with dripping wax colored spiral candles.

WoW

yes that's the bday cake i'm talking about - nice description:thumbsup

Because of my wife's job, I'm pretty much stuck in a hick city, about 25 miles away from any sanity. I truly don't belong here.

Local Favorites That I despise:

Wearing hunting clothes (year round)
Hunting
Possessing a fleet of non functioning automobiles
Four by fours
Country music
NASCAR
Gong to Walmart for "fun"
Going to church

But..American supermarket birthday cakes are better than British ones simply because the British put this marzipan icing on stuff that is even worse than our store bought birthday cakes. Even when it came to getting my wedding cake ordered from a proper bakery I had to say 'no marzipan icing and for the love of whoever don't make it fruitcake'.

We have a fondant craze over here going on with that sort of crap. Fondant I feel is even worse than marzipan as at least if I recall marzipan has a slight almond flavor to it.

I hate marzipan. With all the German in me I should be okay with it and it is made out of almonds but I just can't stand the taste or texture.

sports, chocolate, television.

body piercing and text messaging

nutella, star wars, star trek, coffee

Line Dancing - Macarana

Texting. I do it occassionally, but would prefer to just pick up the phone and call.

Going out to clubs that you have to wear heels and pay 15 for a beer, would rather go to the local bar if I go out at all.

Entourage

Starbucks (rather have wawa coffee anyday)

Most of the country is Wawa deprived. Every year at Christmas I get my dad a gift card for Wawa loaded with enough for him to get one cup a day on me.

:1orglaugh jk

crocs, i hate those fucking things

Ranch dressing. The mere thought of it makes me sick.

That sounds like the town I live in. And I don't like all those things either.

Ranch dressing is the best :thumbsup

Alcohol, sports, religions...

Wow, you may be my kindred soul! :winkwink:

Dennys chain restaurant and Sex in the city.

I'll take you out one night and show you just how much fun it can be! :thumbsup:1orglaugh:winkwink:

Fighting -- I never really understood the idea of starting unprovoked fights with random strangers. Somethings are worth fighting over, but not because you have had five pints of lager, and a complete stranger looks like a cunt.

coffee, crocks, sports (I rather play it myself, it's like watching someone else eat chocolate), fat tasting birthday cakes, oversized pants on guys, fantasy movies, smoking, drugs, night clubs, tanning... and a lot more probably.

I guess I am just a boring person... LOL

1. reality tv
2. the need to have as many friends as possible on social sites
3. online rpg addiction

Actually, when I break it down, I could lump all 3 of those together in a way. Which is probably why I don't get any of them.
And no, sending me friend requests on facebook or myspace will not automatically get you a +1 cause if you're not my friend, you're not added.

4. The need to go out and party all the time.

I agree with this one from the post above. I've had some great parties in my house or at friends houses. Good music, drinks... and we can actually hear each other! It's amazing.

5. Foreign films - It seems that if a film has some tears in it and some sub titles, the avant guard posh to do wannabe crowd jumps all over it as a real film and 100 times better than anything released in hollywood... ever. To me, subtitles, some tears and a lack of special effects does not an instant work of art make.

6. works of art - this brings me to many works of art. News stories of 6 year olds finger painting being mistaken by art critics as a priceless masterpiece always amuse the hell out of me because, although many pieces in a museum are masterpieces, a lot if it just a pile of paint thrown onto a canvas.

I'm sure there's more but there's also more work to do.

Led Zeppelin

and

(gonna catch slack for this one)

The Matrix

Hunting, Fishing, Basketball, Golf, Ipods, Cell phones, new music, hell... new anything pretty much.

SUVs ....

Star wars
Star trek
Anal sex
Wide open spread pussy (unless its waiting for me to fill up ofcourse)
Myspace/Facebook

Football.. I'm sorry but watching a bunch of men running around in nut hugging tights just never did anything for me.
