    I don't understand the country music world fascination with Chris Stapleton. He may be a great song writer, but personally I think his screaming I mean singing kind of sucks.

    Black concert t-shirts It seems like 99.7% of all concert t-shirts are black. I would love to spend $40+ on a concert t-shirt, but I don't really wear black. Why not white or gray?

    The Godfather movies and the Sapranos tried watching could not get in to it.

    If you're in to mob movies The Godfather is one you have to watch both. The Sopranos to me are vastly overrated, more of a caricature than a compelling story.

    Parks and Recreation - I tried. Got through to about 3-4 episodes of season two.

    Pearl Jam / 3rd Day - I just can't

    Bruce Springsteen - nope

    Pulp Fiction / most Tarantino films. I loved Reservoir Dogs.. But I think everything else is overrated. I liked Django Unchained until the end - that gunfight was done so poorly that it ruined it.

    Kanye West - he's the epitome of a douchebag.

    The Office (original UK version) - Watched the entire series. David Brent has no redeeming likable qualities as a character. I hated watching that guy.

    Great thread!

    Teeny bopper girls who put lais on their rear view mirrors in their cars
    People who have to put 13.1 or 26.2 or whatever on their vehicles to let you know they run marathons or whatever
    People who put "The Salt Life" on their vehicles
    Sean Penn's magnetism towards beautiful women - started off with Madonna then upgraded to Robin Wright and then made a serious (not that Robin Wright is ugly, she is very nice looking, IMO) upgrade to Charlize Theron. I'm like this dude keeps getting hotter and hotter women all the time...why? Thankfully Charlize broke up with him but I am sure he is working on his next woman who will make me shake my head.

    Parks & Rec sucked until about the time you quit. It gets immensely better.

    bullet proof vests. Why do people wear them outside their clothes. Back in the day, you'd wear it underneath to jedi mind trick the perp to shoot you there.
    and Kale, what's the deal with kale! Some bbq places in Austin serve me this instead of my mashed potatoes.

    Game of Thrones - never seen a single episode.

    Walking Dead - watched first season and 1/2 of second season before losing interest

    Led Zeppelin - I love Bonham's drumming, but other than Kashmir, their material just doesn't do anything for me

    Crawfish - I don't mind the taste of them, but it's too much work for too little reward...and I just don't get why people in the south are so obsessed with them. There're a huge pain in the ass to boil and there's so little meat in them that it's just not worth it to me.

    Big trucks - why do so many guys insist on driving big 4x4 F150's, Dodge Rams, Silverado's, etc.? If a car is too big to fit in my garage, I ain't buyin' it.

    Hardcore college football fan guy - I love college football, but I'm talking about the hardcore guy who checks recruiting websites every day and talks about nothing else except the upcoming season and judges everyone he comes into contact with by the school they attended and how good their football team is.

    @DFWRocket First time I tried Parks and Rec not long after it started airing, couldn't get into it either.

    Put in on as background noise on Netflix about a year ago slowly got into, it does get a lot better.

    You don’t like Chris Stapleton’s sound/voice?
    I like the blues-y, soulful sound. Good lyrics and song writing, I like his voice a lot.

    Ditto. Crawfish is good, but it's sometimes not worth the effort. I never understood the craze.

    A thing I "don't get" is watching other people play video games. But Twitch is huge and millions of people go to watch videos of other people playing video games. Very weird.
