Hey Arnold. Doug. The new Call of Duty games (only like the first two).
League of Legends.
Hentai. I'm supposed to like hentai, surely considering I like pretty much everything else sex-wise!

Star Wars with Rey. I like daisy Ridley, I like Star Wars, I like the concept of Star Wars with Daisy Ridley, I hate Star Wars with Daisy Ridley playing Rey.
And I hate BB7.
Daisy Ridley can play Rey all she wants. That movie was just so badly written. Yaaaawn.

Don't blame JJ (at least not entirely) for the crap sandwich Disney foisted upon us under the guise of "Star Wars."

A lot of mine are stereotypical English bloke stuff.
The biggest one is football (soccer).
I am talkative in my work but in some social situations I'm definitely cast aside under the powerful flow of football talk that I just don't follow.
Beer. It tastes alright but not worth a beer belly.
Out of birds booze and football there's only one of those I'm interested in.
I'm not too keen on the queen, religion, soups, mash and gravy either.
Any Star Wars film.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.

I hate the Star Trek reboot
I hate mashed AND baked potatoes (seriously, I'd rather eat them after Sam Elliot passes them)
While I don't 'hate' Tom Cruise, damned if I know why anyone finds him attractive. Ick.
I hate the folks that hated Bo Pellini as Nebraska football coach

What's not to like about baked potatoes

Maybe I'd do him if he weren't a batshit Hubbard freak

Taters?
Disgusting. Jesus, foul, fetid, festering fecal spew of Satan. Texture is ghastly too. I admit it's unusual, but I have a visceral loathing of baked and mashed potatoes.
Fries and chips OK, but as for hashbrowns, they need to be well done. White slimy shreds no way.
BTW, I can eat raw potato. Sliced up with a little dip, nom nom nom. For some reason THAT puts people off.

Ah I thought of 4 more: Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr and Discord.
ETA: OH WOW ALEX! TOTALLY THE BIGGEST ONE FOR ME: Watching TV. Feelings
Haven't had a TV hooked up since I moved out of my parents' in 2000. TV get dumber every time I take a peek. Good riddance.
I'm with you on the TV. I didn't own one when I lived alone. My wife insisted we get one when we got married. Her dad gave her an old black and white one (snicker) with rabbit ears that he had had stored in his attic. This was in '81. When it died, I broke down and got her a color TV. Dumber and dumber is apt, AFAIAC regarding programming. One of my sons recommended I watch the Big Bang Theory. I made it about 3 minutes of...one liner, laugh track, one liner, laugh track...before I walked away. I do watch the Nature Channel occasionally. I surf the net, read, and do wood working, wood carving and copper smithing. I have a lot more time since I sold my '68 Buick Skylark GS. I get to the parts store about every month or so, where it used to be sometimes more than once a week. It needed body work, paint and a new interior, and I wasn't inclined to drop another $5k in it. Fun to drive, though. I have an old truck that I use to haul wood and to tow my camping trailer. I don't like camping; my wife grew up with it, but I never camped as a kid. I guess that's something that I'm supposed to like, but I just tolerate it.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Anime and booze.
I love Japanese culture, but I really could care less about anime. The stories just don't seem interesting to me.
I used to be a big tequila and beer drinker. But a few years ago, I just lost the taste for it. I have little interest in imbibing alcohol, except hard cider, which I do enjoy.
