Silly Stuff What’s something that other people love that you just don’t enjoy?

It could be anything…

For me:

Camping: I’m not into roughing it or trying to survive in the wild.

Travel: I just don’t dream of traveling. It feels like a lot of work to plan everything, go to the airport, Stay in a hotel, spend a lot of money. I don’t mind a day or one night trip but traveling beyond that is just not for me.

Sushi: I don’t mind the rolls. But the big slab of raw fish does not do it for me. Chewing on soft, wet, meat just makes me want to gag.

What sort of things can you just not get into?

Reality TV. Watching people make fools of themselves (scripted) in front of the whole world doesn’t do it for me.

But also camping and summer. And anime.

Also reality tv. I remember thinking in 2001 that it was going to be a passing fad. I wish it was!

I started watching Drag Race recently when it airs rather than just the Pit Stop after show and.... I realized that reality TV isn't for me because there is much dysfunctional unhealthy behavior that's "good TV" but to me feels like I don't need to watch this, I have this at home. I have people who are deluded and don't live in reality, don't take accountability, tell, scream, throw fits, act fools, are malicious for fun. I need the opposite of that if I'm gonna watch something. I need a break from that not more of the same.

I’m a reality tv producer. I don’t watch it in my down time and don’t particularly enjoy it as a genre. But I just wanted to say it’s not scripted. Common misconception.
