My UO: I don't think Pink Floyd's music is that great. Besides their hits, it mostly sounds like noise to me.

P.S. MH would probably divorce me if he knew I held this UO haha (I'm being sarcastic of course), because they're one of his favorite bands of all time, so it pains me sometimes when he puts their records on because I just don't get it. Most of their music is lost on me.

@ttcbabyodo Thanks for taking one for the team... even though you're wrong.

babyodo · July 2019

Hey! I saw there was no chatter in this thread so I figured I'd throw one out there and see who bites, lol.

I have another UO, but it's a positive one instead of a hater one like my one upthread: I think Maynard James Keenan from Tool is foxy. Even now that he's 55 years old (nearly 20 yrs my senior), I'd still let him sing "Crawling through my own chaotic insecure delusions" in my ear at night. I've loved him since I was 9 years old.

@ttcbabyodo I suppose I could see that, but it depends heavily on whether you're talking about this Maynard:

Or this one 😬

@ttcbabyodo noooooo Pink Floyd is amazing. Especially listening to an album in order all the way through. So many interesting musical themes that recur throughout!

UO: I don’t like theater. I sound like some uncultured heathen but I’ve hated it since I was a kid. The overacting, the loud voices, the predictability—dear gawd, I can’t wait till it’s over. (But I love the songs in musicals😆)

Someone else admitted their hate for theater too recently, not sure if it was @flowntheloop or another member?

newmomtx06 · July 2019

@keikilove I also am not a theater fan. The overacting just kills me.

Haha! Honestly, either one works for me. My love for him is undying. And I've always had a thing for older men. I think Gabriel Byrne is sexy. Same with Ian McShane.

I don't love museums. Like the kind where you have to slowly wander and read stuff. I don't have the attention span for that. I'll quickly meaner through and read just the few things that catch my interest, but for the most part, I'm done after maaaaybe an hour. Less if it's an art museum. 😬

I eat food to survive. I don’t really care for expensive, gourmet meals.

begging4abump · July 2019

@shamrocandroll yes! Plus, I’ve found most plaques aren’t really informative anyway, so what’s the point? I have napped on benches while mh finishes reading everything in a room. I’m not against learning stuff, but I just can’t feign interest at ANOTHER clay pot.

I guess mine is that I have no desire to go to a live concert. Has someone already mentioned this one? Doesn’t matter the kind of music. I’d rather sit on a comfortable couch at home without a million strangers surrounding me.

@ttcbabyodo Don't feel bad. Growing up, I always had a thing for Slash. I'm not proud of it. And I'm not totally over it, either...

tyrion_ · July 2019

@begging4abump this is how I feel about sporting events. Way better in my living room than in person. Or at a bar even

shamrocandroll · July 2019

@begging4abump I haven't been to a concert since phones and Snapchat became such a huge thing at them, but I don't think I could go to one now for that reason. Instead of watching the band perform, I'd be focused on everyone making (horrible quality) Snapchat videos to send to all of their friends who don't give a shit, and that would give me too much rage to enjoy the show. Is this what being a grumpy old lady looks like? Damn kids and their rock music and chat snaps!
