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

I hate late fall and winter.

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

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

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?

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.

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 Big Grin)

One more I forgot to add earlier:

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

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.
