What's your difference? (another off-topic hate thread)

I disagree. 
Soooo, inspired by my own super, awesome, sexy thread here, I've found out that few of my friends hate the show, which then got me thinking, what are some of the things you hate, that most of the people like? What's your difference?

Here's my little list:

1. Sport
Well, watching it anyway. Football (soccer), tennis, you name it. The only two things I like to watch are gymnastics and athlethics. Can't understand spending hours and getting that much excited over almost every ducking game.

2. Pop music
Adele ( the weeper ), Britney, lady Gaga, Psy blah blah blah, you geddit. But it also extends to Beatles, Leonard Cohen... Which further extends to punk, heavy metal, hip hop, RnB... though I have very weird music preferences.

3. Clubbing
Goes with the statement stated above.

4. Hard liquor
Beer only, the rest has an awful taste. Why anyone drinks it then?

Well, there's lots of stuff that I dislike, but very little that I actually hate. So, if we're going with things that most people I know tend to like, but that I dislike it would be: country-pop, 90s/early 00's R&B (actually, most music I was hearing during that era was just awful), anything by David Wong, anything by Tim & Eric, Dark Souls, Diablo II, Rocky Horror Picture Show, and Counter Strike.

Though I don't follow any sports, I can't actually say I dislike them, as when other people are watching a game or something, I can sort of get into it.

Wow, Diablo 2? I've never actually played it, but point taken. As for counter strike, all FPS online games owe it a lot. But these days, people usually play either battlefield, CoD or CS, or don't play fps at all (with exceptions of course). Or I am wrong? Or I am not? Or am I?

I play FPS games on occasion, but none of those.

Why, you stuck-up, half-witted, scruffy-looking nerf-herder!

Now for my list.

- Dark Souls series - highly overrated "hard-core" games with terrible gameplay mechanics.
- Football (the not actually football version we have). The fanbase is disturbing and they shout too much and there's too much football and it doesn't look like a pleasant game and...well, most sports. And sports players. They're paid too much. Though I guess I don't really hate football.
- Organic components. This is why I am, in fact, a robot. I transferred my consciousness over.
- Robotic components. It's really not very comfortable being entirely composed of metal shit.
- Cheesecake. It's ducking disgusting.
- Modern music. It's ducking disgusting.
- Battlefield. Is there really any difference from Call of Duty?
- Call of Duty. More like Call of Doodie. Not even good doodie. Like, doodie you'd find in a truckstop bathroom that's been sitting there for a hundred years.
- Summer. Get the duck away.
- Snow. It's depressing, knocks out power, and is cold and makes roads more dangerous. Duck snow.
- Rain. It knocks out power and is depressing.
- Bravely Default. Play to chapter 5 and tell me with a straight face...with absolute sincerity...that you like the rest of the game.
- Kratos. God of War would be better without that one-note, one-facial expression, murderous, boring, constantly angry motherducker. Duck Kratos.
- A lot of fighting games to a certain extent. A lot of the time, I find myself inputting combos EXACTLY as I should, and it doesn't ducking work. Combos like that ruin the controls easily.
- Chrono Trigger. Literally the worst game ever made.
- The Walking Dead. This series should be over. The characters are so goddamn stupid - these are slow walking squishy things. Get one of these or one of these or just build places zombies can't enter...like, any building with no windows and a good, solid, metal door. Plus, the show drags people's attention away completely which makes me hate it more. Duck that goddamn show.
- Game of Thrones. People keep talking about it and I have no interest in a show where I can't get invested in the characters before they're killed off. Unless characters constantly being wiped out is an exoneration, but I'll still not watch it. Just sounds like a "mature", ultra violent, sex filled show just for the sake of it being so. I know I like Berserk kind of, but it fits more in a show about someone who was able to swing a sword no one should be able to effectively at 10.
- Baldur's Gate. You just can't translate a turn based strategic game to a real-time action rpg. It doesn't work. Plus, there's not much to do.
- Neverwinter Nights. Same thing, except it's got one town that bores me greatly.

Well, let's give this a go.

- Game of Thrones. It's just EVERYWHERE. I don't want to know about it, but it feels unavoidable sometimes. The walking dead can go here too. I'd also add Breaking Bad, but at least that's OVER.
- Alcohol. Seriously. I understand that people like being drunk, and that they think it's worth drinking just to get drunk, but it tastes vile, and I don't think being drunk is worth that.
- Most fandoms. It seems the more I like a particular thing, the more terrible people seem to like it too. Dink is, surprisingly, a happy exception to this.
- Watching sports. It's just not interesting to me. Let's plays generally fit here too.
- Bacon. I don't hate it, I just think it's vastly overrated. Cheese too.
- Apple. Screw apple.
- The whole Gamergate thing. It feels wrong being on the fence about it, but then I research it for a bit and only find reasons not to want to be on either side all the more. It's the most disgusting thing I've ever seen.

Yes, I'll add Breaking Bad as well and Apple. I don't think that people like Gamergate, but I still don't know what the duck is going on there.

Life? What's that? Can I download it?! 
I have a hard time hating on stuff. There's always good things about stuff. Some things with more bad than good:

Electronic Arts: Tend to duck up and rush releases of their studios games and much much more. However, their studios make great games. Also, Origin.
Apple: They encapsulate people to their own little world, where everything has to be Apple-branded. Expensive and more of a status-symbol overall.
Tomatoes: I don't like 'em. Ketchup on the other hand...
Trolls: They suck, but what would I be without them? Probably a troll.

Also Sony. Proprietary, overpriced sd cards, shitty cameras, overpriced controllers, play station network's supreme menu lag, the character input system, constant updates, choppy emulation, and 12 million versions of the ps3, most of which can't play ps2 games.

Oh, and having to sit there holding the power button for a thousand hours before it can shut off. Because that ducking makes sense.

...and packaging only one controller which Microshit and Nintendo also do. It's really ducked up to do.

.....well, duck most new consoles, really.

Duckers.

I think Microsoft a little bit worse in that regard
-Proprieary hard drives
-Xbox 360 was the worst when came to backwards comparability because SOME games work SOME didnt it was just random and the hardware was more then capable of running the games you had download software updates which is just disgusting lazy GIVE ME BC FROM THE GET GO OR NOT AT ALL.
-Sony had the common sense to allow used games and they didnt try to pull the DRM what MoneySoft tried to do.

But in the end The new console are all crap which is sad becasue this is the first generation where I myself can buy a console near it's launch When I got the Original Xbox the 360 had been released a couple of months earlier and there wasnt much Original Xbox games left and most of them were 360 Games or PS2 games(PS2 had a longer life cycle)

At least Nintendo has their own special games you can't get on any other system which is why it's almost entirely pointless to buy Sony or Microsoft's consoles now. Hell, if you have to money to buy an xbone or ps4, just build your own computer and you'll have eternal access to most of what's going to come out on Xbone/ps4 anyways. That's how I see it at least.

Plus, Nintendo has the superior library anyways. I'd prefer a kirby game or something over ducking Halo or some crap unless I had the chance to play Halo with someone else somehow... of course, it'd have to be local since Xbox live is a pile of bullshit. But given the choice between a co-op shooter and co-op Kirby, it's probably tied. Ever play Synergy? That's cool.
