Things you don't get.

Horse racing or even just horses, can't begin to understand the fascination with them.

Monarchists, some people seem to love the Windsors more than life itself, wtf is all that about?

***O'Rourke3*** · 06-01-2018 12:12 AM

Hearts, or any general violence. Celebrity talent/challenge TV.

I did not know that. Thanks for the info.

I'll tell Mrs R. It might stop her watching it

How anyone can get enjoyment watching a bunch of spoilt brats day-by-day lives is beyond me.

**Mixu62** · 06-01-2018 12:41 AM

"Famous" YouTubers.

***snooky*** · 06-01-2018 12:51 AM

The Simpsons
Frazier
Strictly
Big Brother
Cricket
Athletics
Practical jokes
Hiking

I've come to the conclusion I must be a miserable old ghet.

My 8 year old barely watches TV anymore, instead he's got his favourite blogs on YouTube, mainly Minecraft tutorial videos but also a couple of other gamer channels. I kind of get the attraction of watching something and then trying to replicate it. I'd rather he was watching something that then stimulates his fantasy in an interactive sense instead of sitting him in the comatose world of Peppa Pig an the likes.

Guinness. A truly awful concoction.

**HUTCHYHIBBY** · 06-01-2018 05:49 AM

"reality" tv.

Hula hoops for couch potatoes?

Expensive things that don't last. Washing machines, computers, fridges, TV, dishwashers. People know how to make components that last, so why do we tolerate having to replace this assembly line rubbish and get a new one shipped from Guangdong every three years?

Inbuilt obsolesence - Started with light bulbs I think. Things are deliberately built with weaker metals etc. interesting and infuriating at the same time.

Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club. It’s alright, but not as good asThe White Album, Revolver or Rubber Soul. So no idea how polls always seem to vote it the greatest album of all time.

***Scouse Hibee*** · 06-01-2018 10:39 AM

Jeans hanging down around yer erse cheeks.

**Pretty Boy** · 06-01-2018 11:44 AM

Game of Thrones. Watched a series and a bit then admitted defeat, just don't understand the hype at all.

Cocaine. Crap drug that's expensive, people taking it don't look like some 'classy' socialite, most just mark themselves as chavs with more money than sense.

I like fantasy as a genre, so I was expecting to love it. I read the book first and was told the TV series was amazing, and like you say I never really 'got' it. Tried it twice in fact.

I'd say it took me a season and a half, binge watched, to really get into it. But, I have persevered and can't wait for the final season!

Big bushy beards. I don't care how fashionable they are, most guys with them just look daft.

**hibsbollah** · 06-01-2018 12:28 PM

...the whole 'time passing faster as you get older' thing. It's shocking. At this moment Liz Kershaw is playing a Manics song from the This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours album which she says is TWENTY years old today.

Which obviously makes no sense. I'm hurtling towards old age at breakneck speed and it's no fair.

My mum used to say "Life is like a toilet roll. The nearer you get to the end, the faster it goes".

I don't suppose for one second that she made the quote up, but for me at my age, it's truth is indisputable.
