Someone just asked the opposite of this question here and I was wondering if there are cases were you're just not interested in something but you know the community is great nonetheless.

Pineapple on pizza. You're wrong and I wanna fight you but we can still be friends and have a good time over drinks.

Metal and punk music, not my style but def my scene

Skateboarding/ bmx/ rollerblades / scooters- have a fucked up knee so I don’t like to anymore but I love the energy the crowd brings

Street racing- car scene is dying and wifey doesn’t let me any more 🙃

Graffiti art- I’m just bad at it

Furries - not my thing but they’re fun folks

Larping / roleplay/ dnd - same

Weed.

Stoners are cool people. Usually very funny, down to earth and fun to talk to, but it’s not my thing at all.

Give me a decent scotch with a drip of spring water and I’m good!

Gimme a stoner any day. Better than trying to talk a roided up jock half way through a bottle of tequila out of punching his nana. I don't consume myself because weed just puts me to sleep. I guess I'm mellow enough.

My wife is a huge Rush fan. I've been to two concerts, I don't get it. It's loud, it's screechy, I can't understand the lyrics, but they're her favorite band.

Bought her the "Rush 50" set for our anniversary next month:

She tolerates my taste:

I worked with some people from Chile once, and they ALL loved rush. there was like 30 of them, they had in common where they came from, and rush. Like it's a thing. Even the ones whose English was so-so knew every word to every song. I miss jamming with em. Fucking epic air drums!

I went to a concert with a mega fan and also don’t get it, that shit hurt my ears. I think Rush fans brains are all wired at some unique frequency.

Marijuana Aficionados. I've been straight edge my entire life but always hung out with them. Now, it is more common since legal restrictions have been lifted. The community in general is well, chill.

My dad gave me advice a hundred years ago, and it's probably a George Carlin bit or something, but there's a difference in philosophy between drunks and stoners. A drunk will pound a beer, or sip from a personal flask, or bring their own six pack to a party. A stoner's first impulse is to light a joint and find someone to pass it off to. It's communal, and it brings others into the circle, where alcohol is isolating. Obviously it's a generalization, but it sort of fits.

Surprising from a user named stinky. I guess you're more the type who don't frown when you go down to brown town.

Horses. Let’s say she was rather liberal regarding stuff.

[–] Sendpicsofsandwiches 6 points 3 days ago

Eggs. Never much liked eggs outside of scrambled or omelets and I only really tolerate those but I know pretty much everyone else likes them so 🤷

Anime. I don’t get it, but boy those anime girls are so cute. <3
