    Most likely be torn to shreads for the following but I care not a jot. Not a list of favourite things but I like them all nonetheless.

    So what do you like that you daren't say in public ? What music, movies, TV etc do you tend not to talk about? (other than that pornography of course ;))

    Or to be precise, what are you willing to admit to liking that other's think uncool?

    Me ..

    Movies (Mainly cause I'm a bloke they are considered uncool)
    Footloose
    Curly Sue
    Four Weddings
    St Elmos Fire
    About Last Night
    Think John Hughes was a Genuis

    TV
    Paul O'Grady
    Noel Edmunds
    Pat Kenny :)
    Eammon Dunphy
    Grainne Seoige
    Loose Women

    Music
    The Frames
    Phil Collins
    Mariah Carey
    A-ha
    Johnny Logan

    I like to stay in and watch TV on my own every now and then.

    My girl thinks that's uncool. She doesn't understand.

    In fact I'd go so far as to say that my girl's mad at me.

    Since when are The Frames uncool??

    It's not your taste that people deem uncool, rather it's the fact that you won't come out of the closet - 'in' is sooooooooooooooooo 90's


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,257 ✭✭✭SoupyNorman


    Say how cool I am.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 4,193 ✭✭✭Turd Ferguson


    OP, you need to add "making uncool posts on boards" to that list

    I'm in no closet, nor have I ever been about what I like .. that's the point. When people hear about me listing to or watching the above a slagging always follows.

    Was in Whelan's the other night and a guy got the slagging of his life for playing Garth Brooks .. was funny though :)

    He's right, the Frames have always been uncool. Glen Hansard even more so. The man won a Oscar for f**k sake and no one gives a s**t ..

    Now were talking people.

    Let it out! Free yourselves of the affliction that is the need of the approval of others. Let the desire to play Rick Astley's Greatest Hits each week be known dammit ..

    I feel v uncool for really liking this song as I generally loathe 'pop' music.

    I swear to christ Snyper, if you are telling us that after all our hard work, campaign fronting and internet campaigns, you ahve let the cat out of the bag by letting her escape on your damn lawn mower - we're going to have issues.

    P.S. It's not that kind of 'ride on' mower

    tv: Home and away

    Film: mamma mia, how to lose a guy in ten days, and love actually

    general interests: Internet message boards. I could also sit by any airport for days watching planes. I'm not quite at the stage of writing down registrations, but it's bound to happen one day.

    Music: usually out of nowhere I'll hear some song by some douchy chart sensation and love it. Could be some boy band or moany female solo idiot with a guitar. Can't think of specific example right now tho!
