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?

The Rory Stories fella.
I was indifferent to his comedic attempts but what really annoyed me was his work with the construction industry.

There was a video where poor Rory acts out a situation where he is having a hard time with an undefined problem
However, brave RorRor conquers the flames of mental health disaster by, wait for it, talking to someone. Great - that's that sorted.
It was as sincere as a "message" episode in a failing 1990s sitcom.
A big, loud, egotistical, clueless GAA and corporate arse-licker - people like this are the cause of most mental health issues on sites. Yet there he is.

Complete tone-deaf ignorance.

He seems like a nice normal fella. I don't know how they get followers but I assume he made a few jokes that caught on. He makes videos that people relate too and that's what a lot of people like. I've seen some really nice comments under some of his videos.

He's hardly going to solve the 'flames of mental health disaster' but I don't see any harm if it helps some people or gives them a little laugh.

Have to agree. I watched his videos since he started gaining traction on Facebook. Bought his book on amazon store and I genuinely thought it was written by a child. 99% of if it was GAA and how he loves his club which I can understand lads can be passionate about sport but it was 99% Gaa and the other 1% was about his life which is the main reason I bought the book. Seems to stay relevant posting the odd message about mental health and "getting out for a run to clear the head". Im all for Mental health support and looking after people but he seems to be hang off the issue to gain some revenue and followers.

Sandi Togsvig. I used to think she was quite funny, but since she took over hosting QI, I think she's turning into a Danish Stephen Fry.

As somebody mentioned above, there are a lot of pompous twats on QI (Phil Jupitus anybody??) but I think the single most annoying person there now is Alan Davies. He used to crack jokes, now he just shouts constantly for attention. Its like watching a 5 year old craving attention in a supermarket.

Used to be one of my favorite TV shows, but in recent years its become really painful with horrible guests. Romesh Ranganathan and his unfunny always unhappy face, Ronnie Ancona and her stupid upper class British impression that she does on every episode and so many others.

In short, I hate everybody

Agree about Sandi. QI has almost become a soapbox for feminism.

Agree about Romesh. I just don't get why he is popular- have never left once at his miserable shtick.

That's a little unfair. They knew each other from being in the same industry but how do you know he kept stories about him out of the newspapers?
He may not have known, may not have wanted his name tarnished as guilty by association or maybe he didnt believe the stories and stayed the hell out of it.
We often hear about people being friends with serial killers or paedophiles who had no idea.
Louis Theroux did a follow up documentary about Jimmy Savile called Regrets and Reflections. He said he's sickened by the fact he was so blatantly dupped by Savile and had no idea of the evil truth lurking below the surface, hell it wasnt even below the surface!
So i don't think its fair to paint Simon Cowell with that brush with zero accusations or indicators of anything sordid.

On topic, Eamon Holmes.

Funny you mention Louis Theroux. He was interviewing Max Clifford and said Clifford kept saying off the record stuff and then say the complete opposite on the record. Louis wouldn't do the interview like that. One of the things he said that he was organizing some model with big boobs to get pictured with Cowell. Reason being was to keep that story in the newspaper rather than what he was really up to. Cowell used to basically threaten people with Max Clifford.
Even without Max Clifford, Cowell is a creep. Agree with you on Eamon Holmes

I get a strong feeling that Steven Fry has had many an honourable mention in thread, in fact Id say many a QI panel member has been honourably torn asunder here too. Weasley, pompous, well-chuffed, smuggy w*nkers.

I used to watch panel shows but it became obvious that the whole thing was scripted and rehearsed, just ignore them now

His voice grates on my brain, like a cheese grater. I actively avoid his shows. My mum loves home renovation shows. She's tuned into him a few times, but I think even she got tired of his schtick.

He came across as grumpy and too negative, or overly critical, in that show he did where people were doing up old houses.
