It’s not so much that I truly hate the sport, I just think it’s more entertaining to watch the traditional styles in competition. I can’t stand it when fighters lay on top of each other without attempting submissions and barely throwing strikes, and this seems to happen a lot these days. I’ll take a Muay Thai fight or traditional BJJ and wrestling matches over MMA any day.

You’re right Cal was tonguee in cheek said for effect. Babies that carry my DNA in some fashion I am fond of. Well behaved beautiful babies don’t bother me… but if they’re not my blood I keep my distance. All the women at a gathering will be like gathered around cooing at the new baby… meh, no thanks![/quote]
i dont like babies either, theyre just super fragile vessels of life susceptible to all kinds of injuries and diseases, freaks me out, always afraid im gonna break one
toddlers on the other hand are awesome, theyre like little buddies that think everything is funny and exciting and theyre brutally honest which is hilarious

xx2 except I like kids generally. So I will just add hipsters instead, I fucking hate hipsters. Fortunately they can’t fight and are actually timid. This is good, and as it should be. What is with chubby girls and HUGE sunglasses anyway? I don’t get that
I always thought I didn’t like kids until I landed a (very unexpected) job as a PE teacher in a primary school. I teach 3-11 year olds. It’s a girls school but the nursery (3-4) is mixed. They can be hilarious - I’ve grown pretty fond of some of them. Babies still freak me out, though. I guess if it’s your own it’s different, but in general they are noisy, smelly and needy. Do not want.
Also, +1 on R&B. The radio station that’s on in my South London gym plays R&B almost exclusively. It’s absolutely the worst music to train to. Rock music or even dance music is better. If I hear the Lazy Song one more time I will throw my kettlebell into a mirror.
Did not laugh or even chuckle once watching that film. I’m still wondering if everyone’s involved in some conspiracy and just fucking with me when they all talk about how funny it is…I seriously don’t get it as hard as I try =(

I don’t get it either. It definitely doesn’t help hide the fact that their face is wide as a basketball. It also seems like a great majority of them drive Saturns… coincidence?
No kidding. I actually like the activity, but the mindset gets to me. Climbers don’t seem to have any other interests…at all. And the girls are muscular and hot, but inexplicably will only date guys who are climbers and happen to be 120 pounds. Sad waste of talent, IMO.
Oh, how about dogs? Same scenario. I like dogs individually, but hate their status. And I really, really hate it when they are treated as people.

WOW, you said dogs? I generally am not a fan of them (yes I’m a cat person, I’m sure someone will go ahead and put ‘cat people’) except this girl I’m taking out tomorrow has a puppy and he’s coming with so I have to change my mindset…for now

So what is the funniest movie you ever watched? [/quote]
Must be ‘the full monty’ but a lot of it will go over most Us based folks heads as it’s not only ‘brit humour’ but northern git brit humour as well–helps being a brit ‘northern git’

I really thought people were going to shit on my no beans in chili policy. My friends all give me grief about it, oh they all rave about the flavour but…
I also do not like the company of dolphins, never met one personally but I don’t trust em’. I mentioned earlier I don’t like seafood much but I’d eat dolphin with relish, and lemon pepper.
Come to think of it I hate relish.
Marmalade sucks too.
Cooked veggies.[/quote]
A traditional chilli doesn’t include beans in the first place…that being said, I enjoy them in mine but only because they’re my best source of protein in a pot of chilli
