Eating eggs - They come out of a chicken's backside. When cooked, they smell like farts and they're kind of rubbery and squishy. Yeah, you just go ahead and have my share of that, okay?

Going to the beach - I don't see any point in lying on hot sand prepping my skin for wrinkles and cancer while staring at a flat, featureless expanse of water for hours. The water itself smells weird, has a lot of weeds, it's deep and vast and you don't know what is swimming around nearby.

Going to nightclubs - Drinking exorbitantly overpriced alcohol. Getting struck deaf by monotonous, pounding music while you scream at shallow, vain people in the hopes of going on the dance floor with them to move spasmodically in time with the music.

Fishing. It looks as boring as watching paint dry.

Playing 100% luck-based games. I understand if there is some money involved, like lottery or betting. But games like snakes & ladders... what's the point? (Except for very small children.)

Finishing movies or tv shows you deemed terrible. I mean, why?

[–] Mustang (5418) 3 years ago

I turn films and tv shows off all the time. I can get a sense quite quickly if I'll enjoy it or not. I'm not going to finish it just because I started it.

Public gatherings. I really don't like large groups of people and I can't do small talk. I find it cringey.

Casino's - don't like anything about them.

Shopping just to shop - no thanks.

I'm not a gambler, but I stayed in an Indian casino hotel last week.

The room was perfectly nice and reasonably price, and instead of gambling, I just walked around the place and gawked at the insane architecture and decor. Most casinos are great for providing gawking material, they're all so wonderfully deliberately kitschy tasteless that they provide a bit of free entertainment!

I’m not particularly fond of eggs either and they are almost part of every breakfast plate at every restaurant. I wish I could just substitute an extra order of grits, potatoes or toast for them.

I also don’t get the appeal of beer. I drink it when I go to a bar just to have something with alcohol that won’t get me too drunk but I really don’t like the taste. I would rather drink something like bourbon.

I can't stand the smell or taste of eggs when served alone. They are fine when used as an ingredient in baking, but not as a separate dish. I can't stand the accompanying bacon, either. Strips of fat loaded with salt and fried in grease. Disgusting.

Yummy, eggs and bacon, mmm...😋

I don’t like going to concerts or ballgames…the price-gouging on food and drink, the huge crowd and the parking situation annoy me too much.

[–] jonathan_k80 (6436) 3 years ago

There are too many nuisances associated with attending sports events, plus the whole thing has become too expensive. It doesn't help matters when the teams in my area never go anywhere.

[–] ShogunofYonkers (77381) 3 years ago

Yes, Way too expensive!
With transportation, ticket costs and concessions it’s a full day’s pay for a family to see the Yankees or Knicks here anymore👎

gardening is boring

[–] ShogunofYonkers (77381) 3 years ago

I really enjoy gardening, it’s a good bit of effort put towards future tasty reward

Herbs and Tomatoes are pretty easy and deliver great flavor during the growing season👍

Eating out. I enjoy the social aspect sometimes, but I don't like strangers cooking for me most of the time.

Going on amusement park rides - as someone who gets motion sickness, it's a no from me.

Going to zoos, as opposed to animal sanctuaries, is depressing imo.

Drinking tea, as I loathe tea (I don't often like hot drinks in general).

Obligatory family gatherings. The older I get, the more I opt out of these.

Being around children.
