Boring Facts About You

[Kruss]

I love the '90s era sitcom "The Nanny" and watch it every weeknight (4 episodes are shown per night on CoziTV), no matter how many times I've seen each episode.

 

[Japanfan]

Not me most of the time. Other than the posh movie accent I rarely can understand the speaker.

Closed captions are your friend.

 

[Lemonade20]

I can watch “The Fifth Element” over and over. Still one of my most favourite movies ever ?

 

[alchemy void]

I am strongly considering signing up for this event (if only I could find one for The Nanny!)

I like(d) watching novice competitions. I want to see them again

I dont understand the fascination with long "lush" eyelashes. I have barely there eyelashes and mascara just smears - even "waterproof" mascara.

 

[SHARPIE]

I don't get why women (and others) find British accents (I guess the kinds Americans are familiar with in RomComs or Austen adaptations) so sexy or why so many are so attractive to them over other kinds.

I find a lot of male American/Canadian accents sexy tbh!

 

[hanca]

I like French accent.

 

[mjb52]

Scottish accents... very sexy to me.

 

[Cachoo]

Slowly solving the Frank Longo weekly crossword puzzle is calming for me. I lose track of time doing them.

 

[cholla]

I hate smelly cheese.
I have never read a Harry Potter book.
I have never watched a Star Wars movie.
I can stay off grid for weeks.
I can speak some Nepali.
I'm very bad at games of luck. The only thing I won in my entire life was a turkey at a Xmas lottery 30 years ago.
I'm highly allergic to crab, crayfish, cod, wasps, aspirin, and macrolide antibiotics.
My first name and family name are both hyphenated, i.e too long for most papers to be filled. It always goes beyond the boxes.

I have never used this feature. I guess I forgot it was there but it would have been very helpful.

I cannot comprehend that most everyone loves coffee. Even the smell nauseates me if it’s too strong.

 

[PrincessLeppard]

I love playing Monopoly.

 

[paskatefan]

Not a coffee drinker, either. Too bitter tasting for me. I also can't stand the smell of beer - that goes back to when I taught in an elementary school near a yeast factory that was near a brewery. Depending on the way the wind was blowing, the smell was nauseating. I just could never get into tasting/drinking beer after that.

I don’t like coffee either. When I really need to stay awake, I drink latte but it is mostly done from hot milk, no hot water. And add lots of sugar, and then it is sort of drinkable. Not particularly enjoyable, but serves the purpose.

 

[Cachoo]

I don’t like coffee generally but on cold days I like the el cheapo Fat Free French Vanilla Cappuccino at any convenience store.
The high this weekend is 98. The high on Wednesday is 55. I cannot wait.

*I don't like coffee or beer.
*I have to watch stuff on TV that is either high energy or something I've seen before while working from home or else I don't get anything done. This is why I haven't binged anything new (aside from NCIS:LA) during the p*nd*m*c, LOL
*I really miss traveling and seeing my friends in person. My summers are usually full of weekend trips (and don't get me started on having to reschedule my Alaskan cruise.... ).
*I am an amusement park junkie.

 

[oleada]

I like both coffee and beer.

 

[rosewood]

I don't watch TV at all other than morning/evening news shows. I watch skating events on my PC. I watch them on TV only when Midori is the commentator.

I was almost slipping down from my chair when I read a sentence "Space elevator is no longer a science fiction" on my daughter's text book. Space elevator!!??

 

[Peaches LaTour]

*I never drank coffee until I moved to the Pacific Northwest.
*Love British or Australian accents.
*Always use closed captioning on the t.v., cause 90% of programming we watch is from those countries & I need that captioning to understand them.
*I loathe people who litter.
*I can't tolerate the stench of perfumed candles or incense.
*I live & die for Notre Dame football.

Just curious: do you find those accents similar or can you detect a difference between them?

[Braulio]

I don't like coffee
I love 90's latin pop songs and hear my playlist everyday
Once a month I watch a Michelle Kwan golden era program
I run 3 days a week
On saturdays I eat hotcakes

 

[flyingsit]

I loathe scented candles, all of them.
And I don’t think taking a bath is relaxing; I hate baths and literally cannot remember the last time I took one.

 

[rosewood]

Like other people I gained my weight during the self quarantine restriction period. I bought a running machine. My husband was doubtful whether I can continue running. I said I'LL DEFINITELY CONTINUE! But I gave up running after a week. Yes, I'm a this type of person. ?

Now there's an idea. If only Cortana could read close captions. She still doesn't understand my southern accent. I asked her earlier to search for a variety of mocha coffee's. I was interested in sampling different brands.

Cortana pulled up "Mocking Caffeine" - Mocking a Promise in JavaScript - Drinking Caffeine

I stopped asking her about cracked wheat. I posted about that a few months ago. She pulled up info about cracked heels. At least that's better than her pulling up info about crack houses and weed.

Apparently, my southern accent is like a foreign language that Cortana will never understand.

Now I'm intrigued to somehow give @SHARPIE a demo of our different American and Canadian accents/dialects.

I don't like drinking. Which sucks, because I love hanging out with my friends who like drinking. If anyone ever needs a designated driver- give me a call.
