Celebrity gossip. I have no idea why people think celebrities' issues are just as important as people they really know. Celebrities encourage the gossip, though, because it gives them publicity and makes them money.


Agreed!! ! This just about makes my stomach turn- I can't believe how much money is spent on this stuff. When I see a celebrity endorsing a product, I make it a point NOT to purchase it.

Agreed here too. I used to think my classmates were nuts for liking this stuff. :lol:

I absolutely hate celebrity gossip. It is some of the most useless crap that people fill their heads with
I'm not too big on most comedy anymore tbh. Especially stand up, I tend to get quite bored. Also I've started losing patience with movies, I tend to get bored even with movies I like. I actually much prefer to read, as I prefer my own imagination and ability to visualize things, and I can read much faster than people can tell me information. I watch almost no television, though I do sometimes watch DVD collections of television shows. Otherwise, commercials just cause me to get really stressed out

The one thing I do not understand are musicals. Seriously, how would you react if someone broke out in song like that in real life? What if I just decided to sing everything I said for the rest of my life? I just don't get it...

I voted sports, cause that's the one I would be pickiest about (I like watching/doing equine sports). But all of those I've been entertained by before (except I've never played Magic).

Sports/Pro Wrestling for me.
I find it utterly boring and thus do not watch it.
That said, as a child I used to love the WWF, used to love the likes of Big Daddy.
I also used to like figure skating, but for the most part, boring.

I have a passion for theatre and musical theatre in particular.

I'm amazed nobody picked opera! I just don't get how people can stand to listen to somebody screaming and think it's beautiful???

I voted for sports, but I find opera and often theater boring as well.
And I don't see the point of going to see a concert or standup comedy when you can enjoy music or comedy in the comfort of your own home. Same goes for cinema.
While on the subject of entertainment I find boring, I'll also add all types of reality shows and debates (maybe technically not entertainment, but apparently some people watch it for entertainment or so they say)

Had to go with wrestling/sports...I just have never had an interest, I have watched a football game here and there like if hanging out with people who are watching it my dad likes it so I've seen some games with him and it's not like unbearable but certainly not something I'd seek out to see myself. Growing up I remember at school I kind of liked some of the sports/games like to play it I did like soccer, dodge ball and kick ball. lol

The whole list for me but mostly music and concerts. I can understand liking certain songs but I can't understand being obsessed with the actual band of attending their concerts for some reason.


Yeah, I should have separated music and place concerts by itself. I like music, but I don't care for the artist, or going to a concert, or weddings, or such things.


I am rather confused if one likes music, how is it they would not at all care for the artist(s) making the music they like? I can see why some people may not like concerts so much even if they like music since concerts are very loud and can be crowded...I myself love them as there is nothing else quite like live music.
