What claim to be "reality" shows, especially when good shows are axed for this cxxp. Anything that claims to be music and to me is just loud noise. People that claim "support animals" when they are just like my animals, pets or furry kids.

I probably have a million of them.

For fashion one thing that I don't like is the mary jane shoe. I don't even know why but I just can't. I cringe thinking about it. There are some other "fashion" type things that I probably shouldn't say here because there are some who are easily offended, even if it's unintended.

One thing that became popular in kind of recent years (beauty-wise) is the 'dewy look'. No! It doesn't look dewy. It looks greasy/oily, like ya need to wash your face.

For food - eggs, mayo, sour cream, milk. Any of that grosses me out.

I'm another one who cannot stand country western music. Oddly, however, I do like a few artists from that genre. I like them for the person they are and a couple who have wonderful voices that I feel are wasted on that kind of music.

For TV - I watch some reality but I can't go down the hole as far as stuff like the Housewife shows, the honey boo boo type shows, the having a zillion kids for religious reasons, and the bachelor stuff (I haven't been a teenage girl for eons heh). I also would not watch anything like western shows/movies.

Weird. I don't care for the things you've listed here either. I especially think camo looks a tad silly on civilians. And true crime creeps me out.

I also dislike most artificially flavored grape, apple, orange food items. Fake lemon, lime, and cherry are fine. Though I like real grapes and apples and oranges and their juices. Strawberry can go either way.

I do not like to eat fish or anything that lives in water. Reality shows are not for me. Rock music hurts my ears. Cold shoulder tops are not my style.

You all reminded me of a few more food things I cannot stomach -

Raw fish or any meat that is raw or raw-ish. I also don't do things like clams, oysters, etc along that vein.

Cool Whip! Just no. It's more like polyester than a foodstuff.

OR - Speaking of rice pudding, I just don't get it. Same for bread pudding for me. I like rice and I like bread and I like pudding. But not any of that belongs together, IMO.

@chickenbutt

Bread pudding is worse than rice pudding and Kool Whip is faux food.

I'll go in another direction. I'm not big on slang or shortened words.

k (is it really too much to type ok?)

vacay

convo

def (for definitely)

grab (instead of buy or purchase)

littles (for young children)

and on and on

Also, at least in a local Facebook group I belong to, the overuse of the word amazing. Everything is amazing. Absolutely everything.

Ugh, yeah. The thought of wet bread nauseates me.

I have a thing with what I call 'baby-fied words'.. I don't begrudge anybody else using these words but I just won't. Even those like fridge, taters, or veggies. I'm still annoyed that they changed the name of the Sci Fi channel to Sy Fy. Really? Too many letters? Too tough to pronounce?

One word-related peeve for me, also, is in the category of pronounciation. when somebody is speaking of pecans and they pronounce it PEE-can I want to vote them off the island. It's peh-cahn (emphasis on second syllable).

I don't like reality shows. There's nothing real about any of them and after there is nothing new. It's the same thing over and over and over again.
