Updated list, April 2, 2020… 10 years later
While we’re all living under quarantine thanks to the Coronavirus, there are a ton of these ‘challenges’ going around Facebook.
I usually avoid them, but this one involves being a curmudgeon and thus is relevant to my interests.
Here are my lists:
- “Good” beer
- Basketball
- Watching videos at all (Facebook, YouTube, IG Stories, etc)
- The Office (see also: Parks and Rec)
- Cars
- Gadgets
- Literally any ‘reality’ tv show ever
- Celebrity anything
- Any video game whatsoever
- Superhero stuff (xmen or whatever)
Things I love that others don’t—
- Star Trek
- Marching band
- How doorknobs feel when you turn them
- Writing
- Writing code
- Writing music
- Red Bull
- Emo
- Ska
- Twitter …yes, still
