    Instagram. I have no interest in taking pictures or sharing things regularly. All the content looks so boring I don’t get the appeal. Even on an interesting post the comments are borderline spam fire emojis and people saying let’s go.

      It’s used to be just a way to share photos with family and friends, those days are long gone, it’s just ads and fuckwits.

      Live TV is great. I have a live feed of a stork nest in the background, and you get to see it feed its chicks, teach them to fly, and murder a few depending on mood.

    Driving. If it’s far enough away, I can ask for a ride. If it’s any closer, I can walk. Most things I can walk to. I don’t trust myself behind the wheel and don’t feel comfortable contributing to the damage done by vehicles.

      I don’t think driving’s really an activity that people get into, except in a small percentage of enthusiasts. Most people just drive because it’s less inconvenient than the alternatives.

      I’m going to be honest. I’d be really annoyed if somebody kept asking me for a ride because they don’t want to be a driver. I also hate driving but it’s necessary where I live for most cases.

      Hopefully you’re taking the inconvenience to others into account when asking for a ride to places.

    Going to loud parties with more than 5 people. 1) loud things hurt my ears and give me a headache. 2) can’t hear the person you’re talking to anyways bc of loud. 3) why are there 50 people here? Past 5 ppl, you can’t really talk to people well and the space gets crowded.

    Great for you if that’s your thing but not me.

    Football. It’s like you’re supposed to run and kick a ball, but at the same time somehow without just falling in your face. Ridiculous.

    Drinking

    Why would anyone want to drink something that tastes awful, so they can have a night of fun they probably won’t remember, and wake up feeling awful?

    If I’m gonna have a fun night, I want to remember it, not hear about it from others. And the risks are too great. Risk of doing something stupid I would never normally consider that could embarrass, injure, or kill myself or others.

    If that’s your idea of fun, more power to you, but I’ll pass.

      I think a lot of sweet things taste awful. But that doesn’t mean I watch people drinking Coke and can’t understand why they like it.

      That’s because taste is subjective. I only drink things I like. Do you really think people, other than teenagers experimenting, are drinking things they don’t like?

      And getting black out drunk, again young people aside, is not the aim.

      I think you might be a bit sheltered. Not liking alcohol or drinking is fine and normal and should be encouraged for health reasons, but you’ve made some big assumptions about people.

      That’s how Alcoholism or movies works, not a night out with some social drinks. I rarely drink but I’ve never not remembered stuff. I’m introverted, so a few drinks does actually help me losen up a little and have a better time. But it’s not healthy, so it’s rare that I do.

      Personally, I enjoy the drinks I’m drinking. And no, I’m not saying where it tastes like candy but I drink in the manner of responding “I don’t understand the question.” when I’m asked “What would you like with your gin?”

      Part of what I drink helps because slamming it hurts, but I like that slight burn when sipping (Why yes I like spicy food too but I digress), that burn is a nice speed limiter so it takes a while to even get a buzz. There at the slight the term “social lubricant” shines. I’m not deep in my head, all the worries, anxieties, etc I can actually set aside and enjoy my time rather than going through the list of shit I need to get done a thirtieth time.

      If you don’t like it, it’s perfectly fine, getting drunk is not something necessary to live life.

    Watching sports of any kind.

    I get made fun of for playing video games and shit meanwhile millions of people lose their shit over grown ass men chasing a ball.

    I’d be less insulting about it if I wasn’t ridiculed every time I bring up not liking sports.

      I remember an old reddit post about what it’s like to not like football by replacing it with archeology. I felt that in my soul.

        Honestly that’s why I hate sports. It started out as just disliking it but after working food service my whole life I’ve grown to hate sports due to how much it affects my job.
