Dare to deviate from the norm when it comes to, say, " Game of Thrones," bologna sandwiches or current fashions? Here ( shamelessly stolen from a Facebook friend) is your opportunity to say what you really feel about...whatever. No judging.

I will begin. Confession: Not a fan of tattoos, even good ones. There -- I said it and I'm glad.

I am a fan of tattoos, my sensitive skin is not, so sadly no ink [Frown]

The same with peaches, even walking past them ripening in a bowl has me feeling unwell. Eating them hidden in other food has me being unwell. Similar fruit, Nectarines Apricots etc have a lesser effect.

I have never watched an episode of Game of Thrones, and have no desire to do so. The same applies to Harry Potter books and films. I do not feel in any way deprived by this.

As someone who learned very little in middle school(almost nothing in math, only a bit in science, and what I got from social studies and language arts I likely would have picked up outside the classroom anyway), I question the need for compulsory education above the elementary level.

I think students who don't want to make the effort shouldn't be compelled or even encouraged to do so, and would be better off leaving school and entering the workforce or job training. By all means, they should have the option of returning to school later on when they might have more of an inclination to do so. (I actually have a friend who went this route, and ended up a university professor.)

So yes, I am favour of child-labour, and think that the value of teachers to society is somewhat over-rated.

I think car alarms should be illegal. Very few car break-ins constitute a threat to anyone's physical safety, and thus the benefit provided by car alarms do not justify the annoyance caused by false alarms(or even those provoked by genuine break-ins).

I thought that would be a fairly popular opinion on the Ship. What might be less popular would be confessing that you quite like listening to Joel Osteen.

I don't care for tattoos, either, and I watched two episodes of "Game of Thrones" and decided it wasn't something on which I needed to spend any more time.

Cats are better pets than dogs, at least for non-outdoorsy types and introverts.

I love good wine; thus, I cannot understand why Cabernet and Chardonnay are the inevitable default offerings, at least in the United States. Most of them are plonk.

And why does just about everything cooked have to have black pepper? Can't people who eat it just add it on their own?

Dry sherry is better, Tree Bee, but you're correct about Bob Dylan, who couldn't carry a tune in a bucket, not even to save his immortal soul. How can anyone figure out his tunes just from listening to him, ah, vocalize?

Having being to a traditional British boarding school, I would say that would be because it's only a mildly fantastical version of the truth.

The best summer spectator sport is polo: fun to watch, you can take all the family (including the dog) and at most grounds you can get in a car and occupants for £10 or less.

Most babies are ugly, fat ones (aka "bonny") especially so.

Most British girls look like hell in the "traditional" white meringue dress: wrong colour, bad shape - but strapless is worse by several miles.

Most modern art leaves me cold.

I thought (think) Sylvia Plath a rubbish poet.

1.I dislike yoghurt and olive oil even though all the diet books recommend I should eat them.
2.I have never understood the obsession with Princess Diana who I thought was actually rather a silly girl.
3.I loathe rap music and country and western is almost as bad.
4.I hate happy clappy church music and would avoid going to church if that was all that was available.
5.Most pop music seems to have an over heavy drum base and groups seem unable to perform without this cacophany.
6.I am very against surrogacy of babies 'bought' from other countries. Babies are not commodities to be bought and sold.

I detest strawberries and watermelon, and cannot understand why other adore their insipid tastes. Balsamic tastes like melted-in-the-sun soap. Perversely I enjoy cilantro, in moderation. I love dogs. Cats are ok, in moderation, if kept out of my sight. Television and radio and moving-pictures bore me stiff over the last 25 years or so. Thank goodness for books (made of paper only)

I like people but completely enjoy my privacy. The last is a thing of the past now I am in an "independent" living retirement home where staff feel enabled to burst in on you at any given time of the day, or night.

  • Herman Melville was not talented and badly needed an editor.
  • The LOTR movies were better than the books.
  • Even though I enjoyed reading it, Dune was a political/ecological tract masquerading as a novel.
  • The 17th Amendment was a mistake.
  • Television ruined baseball.

*spelling- I need my own editor.
