25 People Reveal The Things They’re Convinced No One Actually Enjoys

We all have those moments where we wonder if everyone around us is truly enjoying certain things or if they’re just pretending to fit in. Recently, someone posed an intriguing question on Reddit: “What is something you are convinced that people only PRETEND to enjoy?”

Stanley cups. The design is literally so stupid. It’s annoying to have to hold the weight of a full water bottle with your wrist. I would rather have a water bottle that has a handle on top so I can carry it comfortably.

Flat earth theory.

I’m entirely convinced no one is that stupid and theyre just acting to be a part of something.

Staff team building and bonding.

Going to night clubs.

Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Watched it with my college roommates a couple of times and I was just like “I don’t get it” the entire time. I am really big into makeup and I found two of Kylie’s lip kits very discounted (ten dollars a piece when they were normally going for thirty dollars a piece) and I really didn’t get the appeal. I saw a conspiracy theory on a different subreddit saying that Kylie’s makeup line is a money laundering scheme at this point and that is something that I could actually get behind!

Showering with your partner. Like I have things to do here and you’re in my way.

Pregnancy.

NASCAR. I’m convinced people only watch for the chance of crashes, there’s no way watching cars go in the same loop for 2 hours is actually entertaining.

Influencer lifestyles.. especially things like van life. You see them all smiles in their pics, but you know they are hating every minute of it.

Poly relationships.

thrilliam_19:

I have several friends who all tried poly relationships at some point in their life and every single one ended in disaster, and whenever they were all together in the same room at least one person looked like they were miserable and pretending to be ok with what was going on.
Someone always got jealous or someone cheated. Or it was an excuse for 3-4 people to fuck each other for a few months until someone got bored and the people that were actually into it got hurt.
I’m not saying it can’t work, but I have seen zero evidence that it does. I also feel like long-term monogamous relationships are hard, why would adding another person into that relationship make things better or easier?

Super hot stuff. A little hot sauce from time to time adds a fun kick to some foods. But at a certain point you stop tasting 90% of what you’re eating and are just trying to withstand the ridiculous ghost reaper of death evil wing sauce that you put on your wings to look manlier I guess.

High heels. I’ve never been able to wear with without crazy pain – no matter which ones I’ve tried!

Ridiculously loud cars even when they are driving slow.

I know it’s always going to be easier on the person making the sound but they got to find it annoying when other cars are loud to a corny level.

Thong underwear and cheeky swimsuits.

Freestyle jazz music. To me, it sounds like a bunch of guys with instruments, each doing their own warmup routine while standing on the stage together. Doesn’t feel like a tune as much as it does noise.

Clowns. Just, clowns.
