Name something that is popular that you don't like

Page 2 - Seeking answers? Join the AnandTech community: where nearly half-a-million members share solutions and discuss the latest tech.
Team Fortress 2 - its a sorry excuse for a team fortress game.

Facebook - how did that site ever get popular?

Katy Perry - her singing makes me want to throw up.
 
Justin Bieber, anal sex, Fringe, Dexter, Glee, any of the "numuscle" cars - (Challenger, Charger, Mustang, Camaro, etc from like 2007 onward)
 
Neckbeard and TridenT.


Oh you said popular... In that case: Splenda, GA Tech, hyundai, abercrombie, holister, jcpenney, dell, garmin, D-Link, MS SQL, ruby tuesday, olive garden, panasonic, and Nikon.

I have more but this MS SQL database is acting up.

Oh my goodness YES. I can't stand olive garden, people go on and on about their bread sticks, which are just a bread-like substance dripping in fat and salt. Its nasty.
Their food tastes like its been heated up in a microwave and given an extra few kgs of salt for good measure, and its priced way way way too high (its PASTA I can buy a pound of it for 99 cents, so why am I paying $15 for this crap?). The only redeeming thing is their salad is pretty tasty, but seriously, its a salad.
 
IMing on phones, I mean texting.
politics and related discussion. Left wing is a position in hockey.
basketball - FOUL! (again) Shoot some free throws while we hold on to the edge of our seats.

Conformist?

It's actually the opposite of conformism. Here in ATOT it is very popular to hate on what others 'out there' think are popular. I dislike this practice.

I 'hate' a lot of things, but not because they're popular (or unpopular).

So let's make it a little tougher - what are things that (in your estimation) much of ATOT likes, but you don't like?

I mentioned two - Chik-fil-A and Team Fortress 2.

Also Dead Rising, Chuck Norris jokes, and Mad Men.

TF2 is a good one. i usually love multiplayer FPSs, CS and L4D are 2 of my all time favorite games. but i just couldnt get into TF. You are off base on CFA though, it is a rung above other fast food!
 
videogames, but just everything since and including the ps2/xbox generation. the classics will always be just that to me.
 
Everything. Just about.
If its popular its probably stupid. People like shit these days and I dont like shit.
So pretty much all pop-culture stuff. Games, shows, movies, music, actors, most political ideas.

Gun rights are not popular so its OK for me to like them.
