There is a widespread statement that “tastes differ.” And people’s tastes vary greatly. Sometimes these differences gain traction, resulting in hundreds of individuals debating whether or not you can cook pizza with pineapple. Here are a few anecdotes from folks who enjoy things that most of us don’t.
Story 1:
I don’t see anything wrong with playing “Pretend” as an adult without children involved. There’s nothing wrong with an adult man creating with Legos and planning an incredible trip that he imagines will be fantastic. It’s escapism and quite relaxing, especially for grownups. It stimulates the mind to create a self-made journey in which everything is exactly what I want. © Unknown Author/Reddit
Story 2:
I wash my underwear alongside other clothing, such as pants and socks. I honestly don’t understand individuals who say that underwear should be washed separately. I wash them all with hot water and detergent.
My mother-in-law once noticed me doing laundry. She grumbled and complained that I was doing everything incorrectly. I entered the bathroom 15 minutes later and discovered that she had turned off the washer, removed my husband’s underwear, replaced mine, and restarted it.
Story 3:
My neighbor came to my house the other day, rang my doorbell, and I was trying to put my son down for a nap, so I didn’t go down. But then she messaged my wife and was like, “Hey, your garage is open, I can see someone is home. Why didn’t you answer?” So then my wife messages me asking why I didn’t answer. For whatever reason, I choose! I had a good one this time, but maybe I’m asleep. Maybe I’m taking a shower. Or in the backyard. It’s my house. You took your shot to see if I’d answer, and I didn’t. Move on. © Waddlow / Reddit
Story 4:
When I first started dating my wife, she felt it was weird that I declined offers to bring me a drink at her apartment. I gradually educated her that it is acceptable to not want something or to hold an opinion. We went to the mall, and I wanted sushi, while she wanted steak. We decided to disagree and went to separate places, where we both had delicious meals. We didn’t fight or anything; we just agreed it was a good idea to spend some time alone. © RS_Someone | Reddit
Story 5:
I love going on the swings, I’m 30, and it still fascinates me that I can quickly and easily get 10–15 feet (or higher) in the air with some simple leg movement.
One day I was at a fairly deserted local park on the swings having the time of my life. Suddenly Karen shows up with her 2 children, hands on her hips and yells at me, “What are you doing on there? The swings are for the kids, not adults!” My tax dollars paid for these swings, and there’s no sign saying that I can’t, so I’ll use them as much as I please whenever I want. © chewblekka / Reddit
Story 6:
Walking a cat. Some old man once yelled at me and wanted to call the cops, because cats aren’t dogs and you can’t walk them. © Unknown Author / Reddit
Story 7:
It’s annoying when you go to someone’s place, wash your hands and ask what towel to use to dry them, and they say, “Use any towel you want, it doesn’t matter.” It does matter. I don’t want to wipe my hands with a towel that you probably wiped your body with.
Story 8:
I’m staying at my friend’s place. I asked her for 2 towels before my shower. She gave me an odd look. I answered, “One for my butt, one for my face.” Her reaction was, “Guys have only ever asked me for one towel. Most guys don’t use a towel at all.” © MrBishopJackson / Twitter
Story 9:
I don’t have a bed, I have a sofa bed. And I don’t find it necessary to put the bed linen away and fold the sofa back every day. I cover it with a blanket like a regular bed. I also hate to put away blankets in the winter. I have them lying around on the chairs and sofas. One evening I was reading a book in the armchair and got myself covered with a blanket. The next morning, I heard my mum grumbling unhappily. At first, I didn’t realize what was wrong. It turned out that she was furious that I had left both the book and the blanket in the armchair. She even came into the kitchen where I was working and wouldn’t leave me alone until I put the blanket away from the chair that only I use.
