Who is someone you inexplicably can't stand?

[Deleted User]

Is there anyone out there that you just don't like and you just can't explain it? Someone who you just can't stand but they've never really done anything to make you feel that way.

For example, I have an irrational dislike of Emma Watson. I've never really seen any of her films or interviews but if I look something up and she's in it, I'm subconsciously voting against it. When she showed up in This Is The End I sighed and I'm not quite sure why. Can't explain it. Feel similarly towards Anne Hathaway.

Who's yours?

What did Owens do?
I know the other two píssed it away in one way or another.

A series of s***e films, and s***e tv shows.

Studs, The Boys and Girl from County Clare, Perfect Day, Big Bow Wow, Dead Bodies, and St Patrick: The IRish Legend, to name a few.

He peaked very early-showed promise in The butcher boy. It seemed to all evaporate after that.

I have a sneaky suspicion that Keoghan is gonna be another of those 'also ran' Irish actors that completely screws things up as an actor.
Same as Jonathan Rhys Meyers, or Stuart Townsend. OR Eamonn Owens, come to think of it.

Rhys Meyers and Townsend are brutal actors. They got there on looks and looks alone. Keoghan has done way better roles than either of them already. In fairness Townsend was up Charlize Theron though.

I love that old ad, especially the auld wan giving the Frenchwoman an utter filthy look when she tells Enda Oates that he "cooks like a Frenchman"

I think they should make a follow up ad to it. It can be filmed just outside the bedroom that evening and all you can hear are the noises from the bedroom with the French one going "Oooh you ride like a Frenchman", Enda going "Ooh, ooh I'm taking the Horse to France tonight". Then it should show the auld wan in the next bedroom going "He's going to be cummng now, any minnit".

Anyway back on topic, I can't stand that whiney voiced fella that has the show on Newstalk right after Pat Kenny's show.

This has made me cry laughing. The aul biddy's line is a constant catchphrase in this house.
Along with "you could put a bit of butter on the spuds there Andre".

Barry Keoghan the actor.
He has a bit of a gormless face and seems to always be quite vacant in a lot of roles. I know his face is a bit unique but there's that English actor (if you google "actor with eyebrows" it finds him!) who has much better range with a unique look.

Tbh, when you mentioned the butter, first thing that sprang to mind was Last Tango in Paris....

It felt like they were planning to do a serial kind of advert, like the Anthony Head Coffee adverts, or the Oxo adverts. It definitely ends on a 'there'll be a sequel'. Wonder why that didn't happen?

The ad was filmed in the early 90's when Ireland was just coming out from being under the iron grip of the Church. My own guess is that some religious conservative types, not dissimilar to the auld wan in the ad probably kicked up a stink about the "inappropriate nature" of the ad ie A scarlet French floozy trying to seduce a widower farmer. Such a thing would have still caused outrage among many back then.

I suppose for every major step forward, there's always two or three steps back. I'm sure they were mad that homosexuality was legalized around that time, so any kind of saucy advertising would have gone down like a led zepp.

They could even have kept it tame-jut have it so they fell in love by the third or 4th advert.
Didn't need to show anything 'saucy'.

Kerrygold’s retro adverts have not worn well for me in the last forty years.

“Who’s gonna take the Harse ta France?” Now looks like a reference to the Lady of the House.

Maura Higgins. Fake hair fake tan fake lips. I’ve never seen an episode of Love Island but I saw her skating on a tv show and she was so rude shouting back at the judges. Now it seems she’s been seeing a married man too who was her skating partner on the show. Horrible.

You get my drift. Lots of supposed 'famous' people using plonker nicknames.

Let’s not forget Mundy and Roesy. Actually what is the story with all that?

Baz Ashmawy and that stupid Tesco ad his in that pops up on Facebook about Covid19!

That "Cetch him Derry, Cetch HIMM!!" fella on YouTube from Kerry, Tadgh Fleming, he has a punchable face.

Also Alan Carr, I just think he's too loud and over the top for my liking.

Regina Doherty, she looks like a school mistress

Bradley Walsh gets a pass.

There is a touch of the Blackpool's about him that I find charming. He is actually a failed soccer player who became a bluecoat at Butlins or something similar.

There is something agreeably cheesy about the professional entertainer, he is not slagging off minorities or trying to be edgy, he is making your granny laugh, I kind of like that at times.

Well it is inexplicable....

I never realised how much The Chase is on television. It seems to be multiple channels at every time of the day.

I agree on that. Walsh strikes me as a decent guy, but he's sort of the safe entertainer, really.
Inoffensive to a small child, or your nan.

It's not that I think he's a bad guy, I just don't think he's funny. There's plenty of comedians I don't like but I can understand and acknowledge their style of comedy, even if it's not just for me.

But he's not a comedian, yet think he's the funniest guy on television. He tops it all off with the fakest laugh on television, far worse than Jimmy Fallon who takes a lot of flack for his.

For example, this clip has nearly 2 million views on YouTube and is often posted on social media as "omg look at this TV presenter who can't stop laughing, it's so funny"..... I go mad because it's so incredibly fake.

Beyonce is an odd one out in that list. She's a complete and utter diva and egomaniac.

He is not as sick as he pretends to be either, which is not fair on people who are. The only people who like him are birds, ask yourself the question, could you trust him to be in the company of yours?
