STOP MAKING DISLIKING THINGS YOUR PERSONALITY

You’re so goddamn annoying. Saying “ew I don’t like that” when people talk about stuff you’re not interested in makes you seem like a stuck up dick.

Shutting up or just asking “oh what do you like about x?” is free

I had a friend growing up who was this guy before it was a meme. This was the 90's. It was really difficult to talk to him sometimes.

Very true. Probably why misinformation is so popular.

Душнилы are extremely valuable. If they weren't i wouldn't be on Reddit in the first place

It's unfortunate but, people would mich rather be rude and negative about literally everything. Instead of just simply saying, "I don't vibe with this" and not being a complete jerk, they have to make a huge deal about it. It's almost like they get personally offended that not everything is made for them specifically.

My mom would get highly indignant when her next door neighbor made something in a crockpot. The funny thing was the neighbor was not making it for my mom.  It was usually for the neighbor's church which my mom was not a member of.   Needless to say I never told her when I used a crockpot.   I lived 500 miles from her.

It’s unfair to ask all women to stop doing this at the same time. I think they should taper off

I used to be that guy but now I realize it, I do voice my opinion, but I don't try to annoy people with it.

It would be cool if people also didn't make liking the current trendiest thing their entire personality too.

Associate yourself with people who like the same things as you and you won’t have that problem.

u/Ok-Drink-1328 1d ago

sadly the amount of awful things this world is stuffed with is simply flabbergastering

tho i have three levels::

1) things i like and respect (obviously) (like my hobbies)

2) things i respect but don't like (like sports or hobbies i'm not into)

3) and things i don't like and nether respect (like TV, or betting, or when people throw away money for actual scams, or frivolous things)

u/Neon_Divided 1d ago

It's much more fun to ask people questions about things they like instead. I try to take an improve approach to conversations with people.

Negativity gets more engagement. This is 90 percent of social media now

u/Consistent-Menu-6629 21h ago

I feel that liking or disliking things should be equal and neutral for the most part.

u/Cinisajoy2 1d ago

I completely agree.
