    Cats. They utterly repulse me. I have broken up with girls because they kept cats in the house.

    I lot of people hate cats in fairness...

    Anything on TV apart from sport and current affairs. I just can't get into films, dramas or comedy and barely anything holds my attention. There are some very rare exceptions such are Frasier, but I couldn't bear to watch most of the stuff shown on TV.

    Sports
    Any kind at all. Utter boredom as far as I'm concerned.

    Things with icing or fresh cream on them. Meh.

    Festivals in muddy fields.

    Most modern buildings. At least the atrocious ones that get somehow get permission to be built here.

    "Local" musicians or people who do songs on youtube/facebook or whatever and whose style is just "reference a nearby place or thing in your song/rap/skit so local people understand the reference and think they're in on the joke"

    Get sent them on whatsapp and the like every few weeks. Sh*te the equivalent of "I was talking to a girl, She was rank and dirty, But what would you expect, She's from Enniscorthy" sang in the local bogger dialect so all the local d*ckheads can laugh because they're not from Enniscorthy.

    That and Tiktok videos and the like where it's just people miming over something from a sitcom or movie, like they're the comedic genius who came up with something funny.

    Basically I just need to delete Whatsapp.

    The Beatles

    Good band, but overrated i.m.h.o, so many average songs and their albums have plenty of filler.

    There's a Beatles tournament running currently if you like The Beatles/filler.

    TV. Hate it. Don't mind Netflix, but TV channels are just appalling.

    Movies... not a fan.

    Sports, and watching them on TV is well beyond me.

    Live music (concerts)... not my idea of fun.

    Any type of news... nope.

    Nightclubs.

    Just call me Buzz Killington.

    no that's not the case... however if you go to a restaurant and your food is covered in a sauce then mayb its disguising the fact that the food is poor quality.. but try having a thai red chicken curry without sauce.. ;) or for eg: last weekend we had sea bream for dinner.. it was lovely but screamed "you need a cream sauce with some lemon with this).. etc..

    Also , why would you put salt on your food, unless your food tastes like shiite I suppose.

    salt is required to bring out flavour.. eg with meat/veg etc.. but it shouldn't be added at the table really.. lots of people add salt just cos they like it/out of habit.. ekk... but there is one exception to the rule for me.. I add it to chips (which I rarely eat)

    Typical garden BBQ's.

    A small back garden in a semi-d with too many people for too few tables and seating, awkward paper plates and plastic forks and cheap-skate food badly cooked, beers from a tin, "funny" aprons and someone's granny that needs looking after.

    I am really weird about eggs.. I like em scrambled... but I don't love em.. but I do feel v good after having them.. so I eat them from time to time..

    But I almost have a kind of phobia to seeing the yolk of an egg.. like I would be uncomfortable sitting beside someone eating a boiled/poached/fried egg.. well.. I would just be sure not to look at their place..

    No idea where this has come from? When I was a kid, Mum use to give us "guggies".. a boiled egg mashed up in a mug with butter and salt which i think I liked or mayb its just the nostalgia of it..

    Anyone else odd with eggs?

    A friend once referred to an egg as a chicken's period and since that day, every time I look at an egg I just think "that's a chicken's period". Eugh. But, I like the taste of them, I just hate the concept of what they are. I'm very particular about how it's fried though. The yolk should be firm (but still moist- ish). I can't stand a runny yolk, and would find it hard to sit across from someone eating a runny yolk. Never mind the yolk, if the egg is sunny side up and the white is still runny and has that phlegm like transparent thing going on, I'd probably just shoot them to be honest. It's vile.

    OMG - even reading your post disturbed me :eek:
    I dunno where I got my issue from.. think I did see a scene on TV once though of someone biting into a fried egg sandwich and the yolk squired out onto the person sitting across from them :eek.. but I dunno.. mayb that's just my fear creating that scenario.. :eek:

    I used to hate them, but I find them tolerable now. Mostly just have them in smoothies and the like rather than on their own.

    But the whole concept behind banoffee pie is completely disgusting to me. Bananas don't need to be anywhere near that. Toffee Pie. Just the exact same, but no banana.

    That's another one, when you bite into a sandwich and the tomato spawn goes everywhere. :D

    I really don't get the apparent gra for avocado at all. Ditto with the eating grass thing.

    I'm with Zaph on Mayonnaise too. Vomit inducing. I like ketchup in small doses.

    People who say they prefer winter to summer. Eh... wut?

    I agree with both but especially mayonaisse. I can't stand it. If there's a bottle in the fridge ill push it behind something else in a 'you sir, disgust me' manner.

    I didn't enjoy the show The Wire as much as everyone else seemed to and i hate dressing gowns. A friend of mine kindly bought me a dressing gown recently and i thought well, that's never getting worn!

    My sister used to do the most diabolical farts after eating eggs - exactly like a stink bomb, really awful sulphuric rotten egg smelling farts.

    And yet she insisted on eating them daily!

    White wine is way too acidic, the same with cider. I can't go near either without getting bad heartburn or stomach cramps.

    Also, shirts and slacks are something I avoid like the plague wearing. They just make me look old and boring.

    Music.

    I don't dislike music as a whole but it does very little for me. I know it makes some people feel emotional or see colours but i just hear sounds.

    I like watching live musicians make music but I'd never just sit and listen to music in earphones. It's mostly just an inconvenience to me and gets in the way when trying to chat.

    I know some people have different music for different emotional states and it can help them through tough situations. But I don't experience music on that level at all. If someone told me there would be no more music from now on I'd probably say "meh".

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,807 ✭✭✭ShatterAlan


    Brennan's white bread. Tis muck.


    Depends on what you put in it.


    Take two slices of fresh Brennan's sliced pan and toast them and then slather on the butter so it melts into the hot bread. Then put 2 nicely grilled rashers in the "69" position, close sandwich, push down hard and consume with boiling tea. Rinse, repeat.

    Yeah I really don’t get the tea buzz at all, never have. People seem to be dying for it. Hate being asked - no, I don’t want tea I’m not your granny!!!

    People look at you like you couldn’t possibly be Irish.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,807 ✭✭✭ShatterAlan


    You're all a bunch of fcuking weirdos.


    What I crave right now is a Brennan's Bread bacon and cabbage and fried eggs triple decker sandwich, extra butter and throw in some onion slices too. Mash an avocado on the side to give it a guacamole mexican dimension. Dessert....ice-cream with almonds.
