-Cooking shows. I love to cook, but can’t stand watching other people do it.
-Fishing. To be fair, it’s only boring until you catch a fish, then it’s disgusting.
-People who feel the need to tell me about people I don’t know.
-Turtles. Pick up the pace, fellas.
-96.6% of everything that arrives in my email inbox.
Any others?

Religionists who come here to "convert the heathens" and somehow think what they're saying is original and has never been heard by us before.

Soap operas; 'X' cheated on 'Y' with 'Z'. 'A' got murdered by 'B' but the cops will arrest 'C' first and drag it out for a month or 2...

Soaps and "reality" shows are among those I refuse to watch.

Too right.

The final series of MPFC. After Cleese left the show, it became tediously unwatchable.

I was fishing at Rock Creek Lake in the Sierras with my wife and her parents one time many moons ago. I was sure I had a fish on the line, but my FiL said, no there's no fighting going on. We were fishing for trout and they usually put up a pretty good fight. After a couple of laps I reeled in a 14" Rainbow Trout. Biggest fish I've ever caught! I'm not much for fishing, and many times I've wished for some dynamite. My FiL was that guy next to you on the bank who limits out in 10 minutes while nobody else even gets a bite.
At least we always some nice trout to eat, courtesy of his labors!

**Greet**
Great and greet aren't even close to the same word.
