Hey Pandas, What’s Something You Think 90% Of People Are Pretending To Enjoy? (Closed)

Football. You are watching a bunch of overpaid prima donnas playing kick about with an inflated pigs bladder.

I watched a match once. Red shirts versus blue shirts. Apparently it was a crucial game because one of the teams could get some points or something. It was criminally boring.

Years later a supposed friend said I should watch another match, saying how important it was. White shirts versus orange shirts. Something to with having the world's biggest cup or something, and I had to watch it for patriotism and loyalty and love of my country etc.

I swear to you, apart from the different coloured shirts it was the exact same match I had watched years ago. Ooh look they have passed the ball. Ooh look they have lost the ball. Ooh look the other team have kicked the ball towards the wooden frame with the net. Fascinating.

I did feel sorry for the bloke in black, he was running up and down the pitch more than most yet he hardly ever got a touch of the ball! Very unfair.

Loud bars or clubs.

Who wouldn't want to pay $20 for a drink while dancing to the decibel equivalent of a jet engine as sweaty men try to grope you?!

Celebrity/influencer drama

Babysitting toddler grandchildren.

Holidays (as a mom). I gave up the "I love this time of year!" charade last year when I was around other moms, and every single one agreed it's the worst (even the ones posting endless pictures of their godforsaken elves on shelves.

Being Alive.

I think most people, even in relatively wealthy societies, suffer stress and other negativities most of the time. We are chasing after desires that don’t really satisfy. Relief is only momentary before we feel the impulse to start chasing after the next thing. We are always either running away from something or chasing after something. And this very moment of being alive is lost.

The internet in general. It was fun back in the 90s, when only smart people and quirky, nerdy people were interested in it. As soon as business people figured out they could make money out of it, that changed. Now most people have to use it at work. And you can’t do even the most basic daily tasks without an app, an account, a password, and 2FA. It’s gotten so that if you make me log into an account, I don’t want to do [whatever.]

Getting so drunk you don't remember much afterwards.

Church.

Being social for sociability's sake, not because you really like the person(s) and want to spend time with them.

Wine and beer. Stuff tastes absolutely horrible.

Coldplay. The result of someone asking what musical beige would look like.

Pants! 🤣 And kale.

Super hot food and jazz music.

Death scrolling, unwanted invites, quiet time alone, influencer videos, pumpkin spice, matcha drink ( however you spell it).

Dealing with babies/toddlers, even their own.

S*x! Just the act is for most women absolutely not a pleasure, and men think they are overachievers!

Patriotism.

Holidays either family members
