Add blues to that and I'm with you. I'd rather listen to rap.

Facebook

Cannot stand the new country music of the last few years.

I have tried but I cannot get into watching or reading Science Fiction.

Fast food except Chick-fil-A

Zombies

I hate late fall and winter.

movie/tv remakes or the proper term is re-boots.

The whole Black Friday chaos.

Fast food except Chick-fil-A

My girlfriend cannot stand mustard, and cannot have any of her food near it.

Big bang theory
Football
Dancing/singing shows
DIY shows where the hosts couldn't frame a wall if their life depends on.
CGI movies complete with lords, wizards and spells
Animated movies
Dumb comedy movies w/over the top stunts
Any kind of pizza from the big names
Watermelon
Cucumbers, except pickles
Gimmicks, especially tools.

Organized religion.
The Packers (heresy here in the Yoop)
Pro Sports.
The Olympics. The next one isn't until 2020 but, yet they are still hyping it now.
Facebook
Political Correctness.

People.

The Eagles
Any type of Urban Rap noise.

I agree with you about emacs, but I always thought that vi was a great editor.

Back in the early 1990s, when I was teaching various UNIX-related courses, one of the courses was a two or three day (can't remember) course on advanced vi editing. I haven't thought about that for many years.

For the cilantro haters out there, I have read that about 10% of the population has a condition where cilantro tastes like dish soap. One piece in a bowl of soup and it tastes like they did not rinse the dishes. It was explained with some stuff about chemicals and different taste buds, but basically it was not something that you could “grow to like.”

Anyone have that experience?

Beer

Pro Sports

1911s

Vernors (if your from Michigan)

Mushrooms
Cilantro

Two of the worst things ever...

When I taste cilantro, all I can think of is I know how Ralphie (from a Christmas Story) feels because that is exactly how it tastes to me.

In no particular order:

Anything from the zombie genre
Facebook and the other huge social media networks (see above)
Religion, or maybe just that it seems to be necessary
Scotch
Politics
Sports, especially when treated as religion

Facebook...

TV commercials that involve Christmas for automobiles (even those with cute puppies or men who look out their windows to see what expensive ride their wife bought them to show their love)...

Fund raisers that involve holidays in their spiel (like people are only needy in November and December)...

Anything "Black Friday" (except gun stuff )

Beer
Coffee

One more I forgot to add earlier:

Glocks. I shoot them just fine but I absolutely hate everything else about them.

I almost forgot...Raisins!

They freaking ruin anything they touch!

Scotch.

To me, you could take an old sweat sock worn by a teenager with a raging case of athlete's foot that's been laying at the bottom of a hamper for about year and stuff it inside a tire. Then, bury said tire in a peat bog for a few years. After digging it out, wring out the sock into a glass. That is what scotch tastes like.

Abstract art.

Sports.

U2.

Fiction books.

I'll second those and add
cheese (any kind)
yogurt
buttermilk
shrimp
mayonnaise (I use Miracle Whip)
salad dressing (any kind--I just use salt)
olives
avacados and guacamole
garlic

That'll do for now....
