The Emperor has no clothes

What experiences/hobbies/enjoyments/things do you see in modern life that you don’t understand attraction of or you don’t get?

For example somebody paying 50 euro for a bottle of wine - can they tell difference to 8 euro bottle or movies that everybody says are good or books that are worthy but nobody really enjoys.

Grown men playing Airsoft.

What’s airsoft?

It’s where grown men dress up in combat gear and stage mock battles using BB guns. Kinda like paint balling, but more “serious”.
Seems to be very popular among computer game nerds.

American football.

My house mate plays this shite- If he’s not at that he is polishing his car.

@glasagusban’s misses

Will Ferrell and the movies he’s in.

Got hurtful abuse on here before for mentioning this.

What did I miss mate?

Expensive bottles of wine
Going to a restaurant
Going to the cinema
Big televisions
Computer games
Energy saving lightbulbs

Back it up with an argument for fucks sake so the argument can be torn apart.

@The Runt must be a big fan so.

I agree with a few so far. Wine is the worst of it, it has been proven in blind taste tests that even “experts” can’t tell the difference between plonk and €100+ wines.
I really don’t get the cinema, waste of money.
Will Ferrell has been in some brilliant films and some terrible films.
American Football is just fucking advertising for 4 hours and only fucking idiots enjoy it.

My own pet hate is F1 racing, how anyone can watch it is beyond me.

Cunts reading Fantasy Books.

Agree with all of these except the Big Televisions. I do like a substantial TV, I do.

I’ll also add:

Facebook
Any form of Street Entertainment (bar a Limerick scrap)
Mass
Stag/Hen Nights
County Clare

:oops:

I like going to the cinema too.

Formula One is a definite for me.

Agree. A fucking engineering competition.

95% of the Olympic Games.

Gym classes, with a few exceptions, are for people who will give up their fitness kick and go back to nightly mars bar party packs within six months.
