    Tea.

    It's not that I don't like it. I just cannot comprehend the "Ahhhhhh...that's lovely" reaction when people take that first sip. You'd swear they'd just got the ride.

    It’s got a drug in it. That’s what elicits the reaction. Same with the other things with addictive drugs. Nobody would drink 10 pints of lager if it didn’t get them fcuked up. Few people would drink coffee if it didn’t have the caffeine or smoke tobacco if it didn’t have nicotine.

    I get weak cider with vinegar added, left for a while until it goes off.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Rap! I don't understand how talking to music is considered singing.

    It's not considered singing any more than drumming is considered playing piano. It's a different type of vocal sound that can be used in the creation of a song just like different instruments can be used.

    And calling it talking is doing it a disservice, there are lots of different rhyming schemes, cadences etc which can be very creative and complex, some of it is very ignorant I admit and like any music some is gonna be crap, but some of it is really well written and intelligent and expressive. I don't like most of the newer stuff though the 90s stuff early 2000s is best IMO

    If it’s tea that gets you high.....ya gotta wonder.....

    I get that. My issue is the out of proportion reaction.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,178 ✭✭✭Fozzie Bear


    I utterly despise onions. I’d rather lick a cats arse than eat them.

    Also nuts, fruit, raisins etc in cake, chocolate or any other food stuff is just wrong. I’ll happily eat them on their own, but not mixed through anything else. They just bloody ruin it.

    Christmas cakes, barmbrack, mince pies, fruit n nut bars etc etc are gack

    Perfectly normal for an addictive substance to do that.

    My one would be fresh cream, disgusting stuff

    Too RiGHT.


    Maybe some chips too with any kind of sauce. And a big fat black cat under the table looking up and then attacking the rasher rinds that I sling down on the floor for him to gnaw on like a mini panther tearing apart a gazelle in The Serengeti.

    Onions, their immature offspring and their Welsh cousins Leeks. Yet in this country they put onions into every fuÇking thing because they are cheap, every pasta sauce that no Italian would dream of having an onion in, mushroom soup that has more onion than mushroom, inside burgers.
    It's disgusting.

    _113903031_mediaitem113903028.jpg


    The entire onion family is a marvel. Leeks, Onions, Shallots, Garlic, Chives, Scallions.


    Give me Sophia Loren naked in a gently warm cauldron or onion soup and I'll show you what Italians like.

    Branston pickle.
    Most relishes.
    Vinegar on chips.
    Salt and vinegar crisps.
    Tomato ketchup.
    Mayonnaise. Although coleslaw is nice.
    The smell of cooking meat.
    Frosties, sugar puffs, all those cereals - vile.
    Marzipan on Christmas cakes - why?
    Mince pies - Cheesus...
    Kefir.
    Brandy.
    Caffeine.

    I love avocado. Every vegetable and fruit. Except for glace cherries in cake which are beyond disgusting.

    There's more. But sure lookit.


    there's lots on your list that a lot of people don't like tbh..
