Things that people give you **** for.

I can't stand football. Being in the homeland of the beautiful game, and being a male, this can sometimes raise a funny look. Not that I give a s***. Football is crap. :D

Kula Shaker? I have not only heard of it but tried it… doesn't work so well though.
 
For being so DEAD SEXY!

Folk my way tend to be tolerant but I'm not exactly a "radical" person to start with :eek:

- I'm a big Pokemon fan. I don't care about anything but the 200 hour long RPG's they put out every 2-4 years, just the colour titles (Red, Silver, Pearl). They've got very deep mechanics and its the most customisable RPG going, but it's just got stigma because of the surrounding media about it - the sucky cartoons, cards etc. Which doesn't exactly lead to...
- My like of video game music. It's my fave type of music and dominates my iTunes library. Probably stems from the fact I don't like vocals in music.
- 1 friend doesn't like me buying Apple products. Even though he has an iPod himself, lul.

None of this spawns abuse or bullying, just an occasional joke here or there. And I dish it back too :cool:

I don't drink and hate football too but a bunch of my friends and family are the same so theres no grief there :)
And Kula Shaker! They're not too bad. Bought a Pentium 2 PC from Staples years back that had a Kula Shaker CD in the tray.

Thinking about the episode of the IT Crowd when Moss and Roy use a football translation web site so they can talk like cockney football fans and be friends with "real men". :D

Ha , not just me then ,I can't stand football , I like a kick about I suppose but to watch someone else playing , nah..mind you most of the folks I know of who are into football are chavs, which puts me off, sometimes I think they only 'support' a particular team to cause bother in the pub/club or whatever , like flamin neanderthals some of em

I love the music of Tom Waits and though I don't particularly get hassle for that, I am used to getting "is there something wrong with his throat?" and similar joshing from friends and family.

Is it the same people that do both of these?

Because that would be weird...

As someone approaching my mid thirties, have to say 99% of the items in this thread I couldn't care less about. Most people I know wouldn't care either.

So true. The first thing I thought of when I started reading this thread was being a kid, and how different life is now compared to then.

It will be the same for these kids.

Kula Shaker is not at all well known in the US, for what it's worth.
