What is something you never understood the hype for?

Sports, cars, motorcycles and a lot of music genres. All things that men are supposed to like, even though I consider myself quite masculine.

In-N-Out. Tried it. It's OK.
wrote last edited by [email protected]Yea it's decent, but what really takes the cake is that it's far better than what you can get at McDonald's and (at least in my area) it's cheaper than McDs
Their double double combo is like 10$ compared to McDs pitiful BigMac combo at like 13
It's not worth flying across the country for like some do, but if I have a choice between McDs or In-N-Out....

It still is considered that, for reasons.
It's expensive and recognized. That's about it. The UI is neat, I guess.

Oh, for sure I'd rather it over McD's. I just don't think it's amazing like a lot of other people seem to think it is.

This is what I don't get, the UI looks so dated and messy to me. Everything looks like it came out of the 90s and never evolved.

Then you go to the east coast and they claim Five Guys is the better In-n-out and holy shit it is definitely not. Even more overpriced and not even as good as a burger king. Sheesh.

Those are interests. I wouldn't call it hype.

Very overpriced. Free peanuts tho
It's not better, it's just what's available. Like Sbarro when you're not in NYC and the local pizza sucks

Poekmon: It came out when I was in highschool doing band, theater, occasional sports, a summer job (fulltime), and a parttime job otherwise so I just never got into it. To me, it's a glorified paper-rock-scissors simulator with extra steps and zero nostalgia.
VTubers: it's just uncanny valley to me. I'm also super sensitive to audio-video sync issues and avatars seemed to always be slightly behind the couple of times I tried to watch it.
Shorts (and entire social media like TickTock, reels (I think it is called?), etc.): the forcing of vertical video is one reason since I'm almost always watching things in landscape (95% of the time on a TV, monitor, or tablet). I also just want to see more of the same topic, typically, and it's over and now I have to pay a mental context-switching fee.

The notion that working in the Trades is so great. Coming from a guy did a lot of construction work, trust me it can really suck… also most of the guys in that line of work are assholes.
most of the guys in that line of work are assholes
Can confirm

I think it's just some people have realised it pays well.

minecraft
When it first started there wasn't much like it. It was like playing life sized Legos. And the resource requirements were so like you could just about okay it on a potato. And not even, like, a big russet or King Edward potato. I'm talking one of those little bite sized red ones
These days I just use it to diagnose my nephew with autism

I don't care who the government sends, I will not waste my time with radio talk shows rebranded as podcasts.
I am guilty of chucking Second Wind and Friends Per Second on the TV when there's nothing good on since they talk about good topics and bother with presentation for a viewing audience, though.
Podcasts exist for people that work alone all day and need something in their earholes to keep them from thinking about how much life sucks.
I personally prefer DnD actual play podcasts to keep me mollified

"Reality TV". Could anythjng be more contrived yet obviously "make it up as you go along"?

Potato salat. Just fucking weird when they have fireworks for that stuff. Don't get me wrong, it's fine, just not worthy of fireworks. A little dance maybe.

If you want to ignore the periphery, anyway, why do you need to see it in the first place?
Focus.
Say I'm working on Photoshop. I may need to use the palettes, tool presets, brush catalogue, alerts, etc, but then I may want to ignore them and focus purely on the image.
3D - I can put references on secondary screen and peek at them every now and then, but not have them distract me while modeling and texturing.
I can put tools like calculator, notepad and timer - all accessible, but all out of the way.

I ask this as someone currently eating some, when did they have fireworks for this stuff?

Culver's is so much better!

I can watch sports I don't play. Like football(both American type and what we call soccer), MMA(although I haven't watched anything in years), basketball(but only NCAA), hockey, the occasional baseball game. I'll make an exception for boxing and tennis, those are watchable even when I was deep into them. But golf‽ How does anyone watch that? I get walking the greens, and hitting it every few minutes yourself, but watching someone else just seems so boring.

They're a dongle company.
