Your most uncultured opinions

I like my poutine to marinate in the cheese curds. But I don't actually eat the cheese curds.

I love I can’t believe it’s not butter.

I love chocolate milk and pretty much all junk food.

It's perfectly acceptable to eat Chinese food with chopsticks and Moroccan food with cutlery.

I love WisPride Port Wine Spreadable Cheese.

Salty goodness.

Applebee's has some pretty good food. Even the steaks.

mexican women are not known for start shit... but them box truck body bishes will finish some ish....nalmtalmbout????

Cats is an enjoyable musical (not the movie, the performance). I can appreciate the skill it takes to do the catlike dance movements.

[quote] I love I can’t believe it’s not butter.

Spread.

The mainstream acceptance of trans is at least 3.9/4 horsemen.

I’ve been a Datalounger for over 20 years. It’s been the most incredible 20 years of pointless bliss.

I like the shapes that aren’t circles.

I love bubble gum. I love blowing bubbles and popping them. Otherwise I’m very judgy of other’s habits/manners/grooming. Weird, I know.

Loving Spam. Though Hawaiians actually know how to cook it flavorfully

I like American singles cheese individually wrapped. Tacky as hell, I know.

Charles Dickens is a bore.

Greek mythology is like shitty soap opera writing. Pandora's box is the one good story

OP, my family always demands my deviled eggs for the holidays. The secret ingredient? Miracle Whip rather than mayonnaise. I don't use Miracle Whip for anything else, but it really shines there.

I love the smell of my farts and my ball sweat.

Sometimes I eat instant mashed potatoes. Especially in the winter and if I'm feeling lazy.

I prefer See's candies to high-end chocolates.

R16 - I can’t decide who I hated reading more - Dickens or Hemingway.

I also love Port Wine spreadable cheese, and as far as I'm concerned, See's candies ARE high-end chocolate.

I am on a guilty pleasures kick recently that involves Pringles (any flavor) and White Castle frozen cheeseburgers.

I mostly eat healthy normal stuff so the crap I mention are deviations but I really enjoy them.

Ballet is only really worth watching if the dancers are hot. The dancers are rarely hot.

I use the cheapest canned shaving foam I can find at the Walmart.

I’ve served ritz crackers with cheez-whiz as an appetizer.

My cousin and I had tons of mutual sex as teens and early 20s. We also had a few trysts in our late 30s. I wouldn’t rule out the possibility of it happening again.

I mix my wine with Sprite or Fanta sometimes

Also I BATHE my sushi and pretty much anything asian (and not) in soy sauce. I know its frowned upon by the japanese, that it's only supposed to be a dab, but idgaf I LOVE the taste of soy sauce., pile that shit on.

I love bread and butter at bedtime.

So far, r27 wins. I find even a little soy sauce almost too much. I just use enough to moisten the wasabi, and then just dab at a little of that.

R29 "moisten the wasabi" sounds like a euphemism for something filthy and I'm here for it!

Opera and ballet are boring. Ballet dancers have no rhythm and hip hop style dancing is more enjoyable to watch.

Jimmy Dean sausage is the best breakfast sausage out there. Salty greasy fatty melt-in-your-mouth goodness.

R21, I thought Sees WAS high end.

Many DLers look down their noses at See's Candies.

The finest hors d’œuvre is to create little ‘ice cream cones’ from Bugles and Easy Cheese.

I like to eat the pickled ginger and sushi together in one bite.

R35 - honest question - are you supposed to eat them separately? I love pickled ginger and drape some over each piece of sushi - are they intended as a palate cleanser?

I eat it alone as well - I’ll ask you if you want the rest of yours.

I find Shakespeare's tragedies exquisite, but I don't think I have laughed once at his comedies.

Poems that don’t rhyme are stupid.

Wow. Some of you must be so grossly obese.

Hampton Beach, NH is a lovely beach.

I am not above mixing Sauvignon Blanc with seltzer if I am day drinking. Also a fan of the spreadable port wine cheese. (also blue cheese cubes in oil in the little jars which I haven’t had in years.)

Also dislike Dickens.

I love bingo and think square dancing and arcades are fun.

I love the big Lloyd Webber shows especially Sunset.

Port wine cheese balls.

r38 serious question -- are you familiar with Pablo Neruda? I consider his love poetry sublime.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where,

I love you directly without problems or pride:

I love you like this because I don’t know any other way to love,

except in this form in which I am not nor are you,

so close that your hand upon my chest is mine,

so close that your eyes close with my dreams.

---

With that said, I consider a lot of current, MFA-influenced poetry to be absolute navel-gazing bullshit. I enjoyed the attached essay very much.

Garlic breadsticks with nacho cheese.

I love pro wrestling. In fact, I saw a pro wrestler in public last week and lost it. Probably had a 10 or 15 minute conversation with this guy. His wife ditched him, and when I turned around my friends were all scrolling on their phones looking extremely bored.

Also, mixing sour patch kids with skittles gummies.

Refusing to watch Green Acres if I miss the opening theme.

Do you think this is transgressive somehow? Most people don't listen to opera or read Dickens. It's the norm. The world is filled with second-rate humans who think they are unique.

I like to play slot machines mindlessly.

I love love love Cheesecake Factory.

Didn’t you read Dickens in High School R45? I thought most people did, at least in the US.

And uncultured and transgressive are very different words. It’s odd to conflate them.

I eat potato chips

R48 I haven't conflated them at all. Some people like to poop on "high culture" because they think it's a new and edgy position to take. They were assigned things that they didn't read in high school and now think that those things are irrelevant to the world. It's nothing new or interesting. They are sheep.

Garbage in, garbage out.

I hate coffee after years and years of drinking every possible kind and finding every type to be too bitter for me. I drink Monster Ultra energy drinks instead. And I buy them by the case.

r51 I drink coffee in the morning, but if I need a pick-me-up later in the day, I drink Redbull.

Coca Cola is a perfect beverage that goes with everything.

At R43, I wouldn’t call that poem sublime, but if it’s moving to you, that’s what matters.

R21- Sees are fairly expensive nowadays- they were never low end ( if you were extolling the virtues of Russell Stover- THAT is unculturecd and low end) and I LOVE their seasonal Roasted Peanuts Covered In Caramel and Milk Chocolate.

I love American Cheese on burgers and grilled cheese sandwiches, it's a match made in heaven.

I am fine with drinking instant coffee if there's nothing available. Yeah, it tastes like shit without sugar and cream but you'll save a ton of money.

Ingmar Bergman is the most boring "great" director. Except for Persona, he's shit.

Dickens created great characters and concepts but his novels were way too long. That's what happened when you are paid by the word.

Most "great" NYC rock bands are boring and shitty. The reason most of those bands are acclaimed by critics is due to the historical East Coast media bias. West Coast rock bands destroy the East Coast ones.

Milf Manor (it's as trashy as it sounds) is one of the funniest and most grotesque things I have ever seen. It puts most of the acclaimed sitcom comedies of the past 10 years or so to shame (in terms of laughs).

A lot of the Real Housewives franchise is (was, in some cases) excellent entertainment (well, was). Porsha Williams--granddaughter of a very famous Civil Rights activist--not knowing the reality of the Underground Railroad is the funniest and most shocking thing I have ever seen on tv. It really does live rent free in my head. I have sent this clip to friends who have never watched a day of the Housewives in their lives and they die laughing.

To R51, Now that's BAD for you, and you know it!!

But, that's your opinion, and I will respect that. Looking 4 Miss Tim Scott's GF in Myrtle Beach, SC...found a 37 yrs. old divorced electrician, Shaun and I shared last night. We were at Dagwood's in Myrtle Beach. Packed with str8 locals, college students, and closeted guys!! Great burgers.

R21. That’s not uncultured, that’s just plain old good taste!

Mary! …Mary See

Anytime I am ordering a drink in public, regardless of the setting, I would prefer beer over wine or "classier" cocktails. Of course I don't always order beer; it's definitely seen as gauche in some settings, especially when everyone else is drinking wines and mixed drinks.

But I always want a beer over anything else, and I'd prefer to drink it directly from the bottle or (YES!) can.

Before you come for me, know that I'm very well spoken, quite socially adept, and clean up VERY nice. You can absolutely take me to fancy places. But I'm dragging you to a dive bar afterwards.

I think that Doritos are a perfect food

You have a personality problem… beer is not uncultured and no one is actually looking down at you for ordering one. Maybe you should order up a plate of self-esteem.

[quote]Do you think this is transgressive somehow?

No. Did someone say it is? R45, I don't see anyone here claiming drinking boxed wine while smearing port cheese on Saltines is somehow upending the whole social order. Drama down, Mary.

Datalounge is full of snobs who constantly make pronouncements about what is and isn't "classy." This is just countering that with people reveling in being basic and simple.

I walked out of a Philip Glass opera as it was as repetitive and discordant as Lincoln Tunnel traffic on 9th Ave.

R61, the one with the personality disorder is quite obviously you.

And the lack of self awareness is, frankly, hilarious. I hope you're young with your clueless thinking. Maybe you'll wise up one day.

Here’s the beer menu at the Michelin-starred Gramercy Tavern, one of Mshattan’s best and most-loved find restaurants.

That’s just one example—

I did indeed read both “Great Expectations” and “For Whom The Bell Tolls” - and disliked them both thoroughly. I know they are considered masterpieces, I was bored - but plowed through them.

I’m neither transgressive nor incapable of enjoying literature - I loved Barth’s “The Sot-Weed Factor.”

R66 I didn't know Belle Barth wrote books.

R63 Which opera did you walk out of?

I switched from Albolene to Miracle Whip as my preferred sexual lube.

[quote] Before you come for me, know that I'm very well spoken, quite socially adept, and clean up VERY nice. You can absolutely take me to fancy places. But I'm dragging you to a dive bar afterwards.

No one is going to "come for" you because you like beer. I don't see the big deal about ordering beer in a restaurant.

Exactly—but we’re the ones with issues?🤭

R62 Yes, they've implied that it is somehow 'naughty' to dislike works from the canon, as if this attitude is something new or refreshing or interesting. It's not. Cracker Barrel's been around since Pericles.

High Culture is the province of smart gay men. We like it this way. It's self-selecting. I'm not upset about it.

You are confusing boxed wine and Saltines (both of which I consume) with things you don't understand or haven't experienced.

R72 I have no idea what you're talking about at this point, but no one here said anything about being transgressive.

Are you okay?

I like to put sweet pickle relish in tuna salad (for sandwiches) and in egg salad, as well.

R73 - R45 did indeed accused those of us who dislike Dickens or opt out of opera of thinking ourselves “transgressive.”

He’s just a silly goose.

For whatever reason, homeless cock just tastes better. There's really no debate.

I prefer Cool Whip to real whipped cream.

I have never read Jane Austen and never will.

I like both Cool Whip & real whipped cream. Different expectations for them.

I find this Abbott and Costello skit funny.

Some of these choices feel like covert bragging about how cultured posters are, instead of admitting to actual tackiness.

"Oh, I'm so uncultured that I will deign to drink an Egon Muller Scharzhofberger Riesling if nothing else is available in the wine cellar, I sometimes read Tolstoy in translation instead of the original Russian, and I'll even dare to dress myself without the help of my valet."

Ha-ha R80 well if we are going to come up with examples of that, I left Lincoln Center after the second act of Die Wallkure because a plate of short ribs at Shun Lee sounded more appealing.

I prefer Coffee Mate to real cream for coffee.

Cigarettes, the crutch of the uncouth, are actually sublime.

I love you r80

I find cigarette smoking quite elegant looking actually, though I don't smoke cigarettes.

Damn straight, r85

I eat French's fried onions straight out of the can.

I like the bright yellow French's mustard on sandwiches and corned beef.

[quote]I like my poutine to marinate in the cheese curds.

OMG, so do I!

I like Chips Ahoy with a cold glass of milk. I like it a lot.

To R90... Who fucking doesn't like that (LOVE IT)!! Oreos, Fig Newtons, let's be Honest-any Cookies with a giant glass of Cold Milk.

^Chips ahoy are better when you zap them briefly in the microwave. They come out soft and warm like home baked.

I like Hawaiian Punch.

White Chicks > any movie Terrence Malick has made since 1978

I love Big Macs and McDonald's fries.

Macaroni and cheese MUST have a healthy proportion of Velvetta along with other more high-brow cheeses. Nothing beats the texture and saltiness of V!

I've drunk instant coffee for most of my life, and have only recently started drinking brew. Frankly, I can't really tell the difference. Years of smoking (which j'adore) has deadened my taste buds, I suppose.

I don’t need whore pills.

r96 MUST learn how to spell Velveeta.

I ate a corn dog at an amusement park last week and loved every greasy bite. I also like throwing back those little Fireball shots while I'm relaxing on the sofa.

[quote]I mix my wine with Sprite or Fanta sometimes

Not so uncultured. Tinto de Verano is a refreshing drink in Spain similar to sangria. They use gaseosa which doesn't have as much sugar as Sprite but that's a good substitute.

At my old workplace, customers (tourists) would order a "shandy," i.e., draft beer w/7-Up.

I like to talk, dance, vape and have my date squeeze my tit during a performance of Beetlejuice.

I like to eat ass with no condiments or sides.

R90 what's uncultured about that? Maybe a little infantile but aint nothing wrong with chips ahoy and milk.

R63 Sure, grampa.

Generally speaking, I don't give a shit about which wine. I have a couple of friends who are over the top about their wine choices, and I really don't give a shit. "Can I smell the aroma? Taste and swirl it?" Blah, blah, Just eat your food, drink your drink, and shut the fuck up.

R77 What else are you proud to remain ignorant of? There must be so much.

And drink your juice too, R106.

Chips Ahoy and milk is / are uncultured. Drinking milk, as an adult, is uncultured.

Wine? As teens, my friend said to just give her Tyrolia (a type of cheap wine, maybe a cut above Boone's Farm). She said she's not going to appreciate something better.

[quote] Drinking milk, as an adult, is uncultured.

I'm guessing you don't lift weights? And don't drink the protein shakes (usually with milk) that come afterwards?

[quote] I know its frowned upon by the japanese, that it's only supposed to be a dab

[quote] and then just dab at a little of that.

A little dab'll do ya!

[quote]I know its frowned upon by the japanese, that it's only supposed to be a dab

Making a wasabi and soy sauce slurry is also frowned upon.

I love listening to disco, house and electronic dance music

Not liking "Everything Everywhere All At Once." I found it more complicated than it had to be with the multiverse stuff

Biz works much better than Oxiclean on seamen and post coiitus stains that occur on bed and bath linens! You should still add bleach to the first rinse although for sanitization purposes

R114, I couldn't get into that movie, either. I think I watched the first 20 minutes and gave up.

[quote] Biz works much better than Oxiclean on seamen

Alert the Navy!

The fitness of my public transportation system users is sorry. I’m examining everyone’s ass as the exit. We have a bunch of sitters and it shows. My God, we have fatties.

I’m not supposed to judge weight, but if we’re in an auto accident I want to land ON them and not have them land ON me. Also, I hate carts on the bus, unless it’s my cart and then you should be proud of me for overcoming our food desert.

It’s hard to tops fizzy wine. Love my moscato.

Is it uncultured to love Adam Sandler movies? I genuinely love the ones from the 90s and early 2000s

Yes, loving Adam Sandler movies qualifies as uncultured. Adam Sandler movies are glorified chick flicks, IMO.

I prefer white wine to red.

I don't like Adam Sandler or his movies, but The Waterboy was great and Kathy Bates should have won an Oscar.

I fry my eggs in bacon grease, let the yolks run over toast, and with it I drink whole milk 🥛. So there!

R68 It was likely Satyagraha, which had to do with Gandhi. If I had known that, perhaps I would have stuck around to feel cerebral and righteous — or at least to see his panties.

There is some Dickens travelogue where he happens upon an orgy in New Orleans. He threw up! He’s a bitch. Never even finished Drood.

In datalounge even Charles Dickens catches strays, lol

[quote] lol

LoL! :)

I like movie theater plastic nacho cheese.

R112, in my Japanese household, we create the slurry of wasabi and soy. It's a thing in Japan, although not the norm.

BUT, we use just a teaspoon of soy, and just a dab of wasabi. THAT's the true Japanese taste. We don't fill the dish with soy.

and yes, the ginger is a palate cleanser, so that you enjoy the next fish so much more.

[quote] just a dab of wasabi

A little dab'll do ya!

Many of these so called uncultured opinions deal merely with people's taste in foods, and we all have our little "guilty pleasures" in cuisine which we know aren't classy or good for us, but are just plain delicious and comforting. This isn't groundbreaking. I can agree with many of these too.

I think OP was trying to dig a little deeper, like, being aware of having gaps in cultural awareness and maturity...whether or not this may result in political shit stirring.

The Godfather bored me. I liked the wedding scene and Brando, that was it.

It's not an opinion, but I can't tell music from one classical composer apart from another's. Unless they're radically different; i.e. I can tell Bach from Tchaikovsky, but nothing more nuanced than that.

I can't tell apart the Olsen twins (Ashley and Mary-Kate). Supposedly, they're fraternal, not identical, twins. I have actually tried to see the difference and I can't discern.

Overseas travel is overrated.

[quote]It's not an opinion, but I can't tell music from one classical composer apart from another's.

This thread started out interesting, but now it's getting asinine. "I'm uncultured because I can't tell classical composers apart!" What's next? "I can't decide which ballet I like better! I'm such an uncultured heathen!" "We got season tickets to the symphony but have to miss a date -- we're such barbarians I can't take it!" "I only own THREE TUXEDOS! KILL ME NOW!"

[quote] Overseas travel is overrated.

I kind of agree. Getting to your destination can be stressful and arduous. Even modest accommodations can be exorbitant -- several hundred dollars per night. Then, how long can you afford to stay? By the time you're rested (from jet lag and just getting there), it's almost time to head back.

R131 did you read OP's post.

His example was preferring Miracle Whip over real mayonnaise. I think most posts just followed the example.

Good point, R138.

I liked the early seasons of Glee and prefer a couple of their songs to the originals. I'm sad I can't watch them the same with the lead actors who died and the other one (most disturbing) who turned out to be a pedophile.

[quote] I'm sad I can't watch them the same with the lead actors who died and the other one (most disturbing) who turned out to be a pedophile.

The paedo died too.

I love that music Mexicans listen to. Ya know, with the accordions and all hooping and hollering. I just wanna get up and dance.

Before you call me racist, I love Mexicans, even the ones that support Trump for some reason.

[quote] I love Miracle Whip and choose it over the "real" mayo. It's not healthy how much I'll put on a sandwich with tomato.

OP, might I suggest adding some bread & butter pickle slices to this sandwich? I love those things and I’m not ashamed to admit it! Well, not ashamed to admit it anonymously. 🥒😜🤣🤷🏻‍♂️

I love Singapore Slings.

I like ramen. It puts me into work mode and it's a hassle free meal.

There's red wine and there's white wine. All red and all white taste pretty much the same but some are shitty. Red and white aren't the same though.

r142 are "some of your best friends Mexican?"

I don't like Shakespeare at all.

I enjoy(ed) being molested.

That’s not uncultured. That’s moronic.^

I enjoy yoghurt.

R136 Oh fuck off. Not understanding classical music isn't uncultured? Ok fine, how 'bout this -- 80s Top 40 music is the most enjoyable of any decade, and for good measure, I really enjoyed the first two Winger albums!

Ingmar Bergman is overrated.

And furthermore...

Pumpkin spice is DELICIOUS.

I fucking hate King Lear.

Luxury hotels aren't worth the money.

R135 Overseas travel is overrated and the vast majority of travelers return home no more cultured than they were before they left.

Soap operas can be great. Rarely, but they can.

People who eat dinner after 7:00 PM are deeply annoying; after 8:00 PM are intolerable cunts.

You can pry my daily Diet Coke from my cold, dead hands.

I subscribe to TIME, but only read People.

Well, ballet maybe boring but fucking the dancers, in my experience, is usually pretty good.

R155 posting from 1978

Keep digging, Sylvia. You have saved the thread.

FWIW, I love classical music, but I don’t recognize every composer, either. I don’t feel uncultured.

I watched and loved Grey's Anatomy for years. I never even made a conscious decision to stop watching and probably would still be watching if inertia had carried me in a different direction. The worst part is I pretty much stopped liking the show after Sandra Oh left (2014?) but I kept watching until 2021! Grey's Anatomy must be meth for fraus if I, a snobby and pedantic gay, could also fall for it so hard.

I love 90 Day Fiance and 1000 Lb Sisters

FWIW the drummer for Winger is a total mensch IRL, Sylvia.

I like the music of Nickelback and had a couple of their songs on my iPod.

I love the Eagles and the song "Life in the Fast Lane." I was listening to it in my car the other day and realized: this song is basically butt rock, and it reminded me of Foghat's "Slow Ride." (Elaine on Seinfeld danced to "Slow Ride" blasting through the clock radio.)

I root for Pumpkin, not Honey Boo Boo.

I love Air Supply.

If given the choice between a fancy bar and a dive, I’ll choose the dive every time.

The same is true of restaurants. I miss the old OkiDog on Santa Monica (the one on Fairfax just isn’t the same.)

Dizzy killed Grey’s Anatomy.

I Hate to Exercise....

R154, why is it your business if I eat after 8pm?

I did not like Heath Ledger in his role as "Joker".

I don't like when people have "Beach" as a like on Facebook.

I’m scared of Columbian men, but would still sleep with one.

[quote]I’m scared of Columbian men, but would still sleep with one.

Why? It's a prestigious university.

The neighborhood is iff.

Iffy :)

I happily enjoy a bag of Funyuns from time to time!

Frusen Glädjé wasn't worth the hype.

I prefer Verdi to Mozart.

Oh, and cold pizza.

I love fried bologna sandwiches. I eat them in cheap white bread with butter.

Mahler and Shostakovich ain’t shit.

I shop at Aldi but never admit to it. I tell everyone the appetizers are from Trader Joe's or Whole Foods.

R178 Same sandwich but I fry the bologna with sliced onions.

They know R180.

Heat up some corn beef hash, mix with ketchup and onion powder - eat.

^^Because they do the same.

I fell asleep in the fight scene in The French Connection. That movie bored the heck out of me.

If your shit stinks I will not date you

R185 I don't remember a fight scene. I remember a car chase.

For a same sex marriage to work : One partner has to be the "husband" and one partner has to be to be the "wife".

CSI Miami is a really good show.

R188 I sort of agree. I'm in a very long term relationship, and there is the hunter gatherer, then there's me.

No matter how much I may love the artist, live concerts are dull, drawn-out, miserable affairs. Studio recordings only please.

I found Grey Gardens depressing.

Cheez Whiz makes a casserole better

R177, I too love cold pizza (and Verdi AND Mozart).

Maybe this will reveal myself as an uncultured fool, but is preferring Verdi to Mozart considered déclassé?

R131 Your writing rambles and goes off course.

This looks to me like one hell of a fun night out. I even called the Bakersfield Chamber of Commerce to see if they knew where the event is held. They didn’t but if I ever find out, and if it’s still being held, I swear I’m gonna drive the 813 miles to get there and let my inner redneck all the way out.

Bakersfield never fails to surprise. Them Okie genes are too strong.

I live red wine and cola.

Love, not live

[quote]I love Miracle Whip and choose it over the "real" mayo. It's not healthy how much I'll put on a sandwich with tomato. What are your tacky opinions or preferences?

Oh, dear. Oh, dear.

My preference? Fewer threads like this that demonstrate the collapse of intelligence at the DL.

But where's the Oh, dear, r200?

" People who eat dinner after 7:00 PM are deeply annoying; after 8:00 PM are intolerable cunts. "

r154 A. How is that an uncultured opinion? B. How does someone else's dinner time impact you?

My tacky opinion is that r200 is a cunt.

I'm sauntering through Saks

Meandering through Macy's

But I buy at Alexander's

I BUY AT ALEXANDER'S!

Because R202, it is widely held that eating late is the more "cultured" thing to do and eating early is considered déclassé/for the olds. My uncultured opinion is that eating dinner at night is ridiculous.

"Mealtimes, and meal titles, at the turn of the 20th century were a reflection of social status, not location. Wealthy folks emulated the latest British etiquette while farm families and poorer folks stuck to the traditional agrarian standards. For example: A wealthy person's dinner party would commence anywhere from 6-8PM, while a mid-western farm family might be sitting down to dinner (their main meal of the day) at noon. The wealthier you were, the later (and longer) the breakfast. Lunch cut across all social classes at this time. Priviledged ladies entertained each other with fancy luncheons while factory workers and school children chowed down sandwiches in brief, prescribed breaks. Regardless of time and place, the general distinction between dinner and supper is the former indicates the main meal of the day; the latter is a light repast. If you took your dinner at noon, you supped at 5 or 6. If you took your dinner at 8, you might sup at 11. Period etiquette books were written for the wealthy and upper middle classes. Meal times and dining notes generally address social occasions rather than family (informal) meals. "

R187 I don't know the scene exactly because the last thing I remember was a lot of commotion and I thought someone throwing things and then I fell asleep. I was in a theatre and so tired after work and the movie was so dark and constant running around. I really thought it boring. I remember what was happening on the screen was a lot of commotion, thought it was as a fight scene. Now I am kind of curious and wonder if it was the famous chase scene toward the end. To me shooting at people is a fight but when I say a fight scene I guess it sounds like I am referring to a physical fist fight. Wasn't like that.

Yeah, eating late is seen as sophisticated. In reality, it's probably better to eat early. For a while, when I was self-employed and working from home, I was eating my largest meal at around 3:00 p.m. I felt fine doing that.

At 8:00 p.m., I don't want to be eating a full meal.

Well, there is this moment...

I always thought eating late was a sign of immaturity and lack of class. It's how college kids live.

In Spain, southern Italy and Argentina, they eat very late. But they also take long afternoon siestas (although it is not as common in big cities). I'm not a fan, but I also feel strange eating dinner when it's still light outside.

r205 Good lord you're an idiot

I like to put ice cubes in wine if it’s not cold.

[quote]Cheez Whiz makes a casserole better

R193 Velveeta works for me and is just as shameful.

I like sweet wine.

I like frozen pizza.

Astroglide will do in a pinch!

What do you like more, r215? I bought some and it’s kind of slow.

I love frozen Ellios pizza with cheese slices on top, slightly burned for 20 minutes.

I love Splenda

I don't really like sushi and I've never seen a Godfather movie. They look boring as hell and I have zero interest in the mafia.

R210 the whole siesta thing varies, most people in the major cities that you named dont take naps. In Argentina at least its considered something people in the suburbs or the country do, not city folk.

Is this a good place to mention how much I hate Microsoft. I'm considering it in the my 'most uncultured opinions' department.

R221 Hatred for Microsoft isn't uncultured, it's deserved. Hatred for Apple would be considered uncultured, among sophisticated technophile gays.

I've never ironed clothes in my life. If it's wrinkly, I'll toss it in the dryer for a minute.

I enjoyed season 1 of "The Wire" but season 2 was just dull; I gave up halfway through it and never returned to the show.

MM = Off my screen. She’s smoke and mirrors.

I've never seen any of the classic gay movies like The Women and all of the Hitchcock movies - except for The Birds which I liked. I like the 80's and 90's musicals (Phantom, Miss Saigon, Les Miserable) and dont know any of the earlier shit with these actesses people adore.

I echo those who love Phantom of the Opera and I consider it my favorite musical. I dont think any musical has resonated emotionally so well with people, especially at the end......Christine, I love youuuu......a horrible deformed, hopelessly lonely and utterly selfish man giving up everything that could make him happy for the 1st time in his life out of sefless love...mary!!!

I love everything Mexican after this.

I believe in linear time and object permanence.

That trailer trash pie recipe from early this summer was really good. I made a guava version.

I would rather 'pig out' on mac 'n cheese, than quiche anything.

Loverboy's 80's music has held up better than The Police and U2.

[quote]I left Lincoln Center after the second act of Die Wallkure because a plate of short ribs at Shun Lee sounded more appealing.

Wagner operas are unbearable...just torture.

[quote]I love Singapore Slings.

Me too!

(But then I love having my bussy wrecked in many countries.)

If I didn't feel like I'd be shamed by my neighbors, I'd leave up my Christmas lights well into the next year. There's no such thing as "tasteful" Christmas decorating - the more over the top, the better. Ditto for Halloween.

I think Stephen King was once a great author and one of the best horror writers of all time. His later work is crap - maybe it's because he's wildly rich or he's now sober - but I've read some of his early works multiple times.

I like Spam (usually turkey Spam), especially with scrambled eggs.

Everyone mocks pigs-in-a-blanket as an appetizer, but it's the one that always goes first.

Pigs in a Blanket is a classic R235, fuck the haters.

Musical theatre is boring.

Jordan Peele is massively overrated.

I’m here, ain’t I?

R144 and R233 say they love Singapore Slings. Me too!

In fact I tried to get one at a 4 different places only a month ago and there are none to be had because either the ingredient Bénédictine Liqueur or the cherry brandy (I forget which one they said but I think the Benedictine) is not commonly carried in the bars anymore. This to me is a sign of the imminent fall of a cultured civilization.

I still use AOL email.

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,

Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,

To the last syllable of recorded time;

And all our yesterdays have lighted fools

The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!

Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,

That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,

And then is heard no more. It is a tale

Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,

Signifying nothing.

My husband makes fresh garlic bread & i’ll never eat it. Frozen garlic bread for me. The bagged loaf type - even texas toast is too classy for me.

I also put ice cubes in my white wine if it's not cold enough. I don't really care for too many reds anymore, they usually taste like headaches, to me.

I like to put a little bit of mayo in my dips along with sour cream - I learned this from the Knorr dip packages and it works well.

I like to eat Texas Toast croutons as a snack.

I don't like opera at all... other than the famous pieces you hear all the time and not really even those...it's ear screeching and that high pitched noise hurts my head.

I am a native Angeleno and I'm finding I prefer visiting the desert and the mountains, to the ocean/beach. But a lake beach? Perfect.

[quote]Wagner operas are unbearable...just torture.

It's no coincidence that Wagner was a favorite of Der Führer and the other Nazis.

Except for margaritas and wine, I don’t enjoy alcohol. Never acquired a taste for it so I would not enjoy scotch on the rocks or a martini ect.

I was never able to appreciate the movie “The Sweet Hereafter.” Maybe now that I’m older I would, but the whole movie went straight over my head when I watched it back in the day. People raved about this film when it came out in the late 90’s.

[quote]15 Hour Operas - Seriously

The Ring is meant to be seen over four days, R244.

^ Ok, so it's still 15 hours long.

I love those fluff salads like Watergate salad. Cherry fluff is my favorite.

I quick-chill wine and tequila in my freezer.

I make basic roast chicken for myself and guests. I just put some Lawry's Seasoning Salt on it and roast it. I hate shopping for ingredients that will only go to waste. I use dry seasonings instead of fresh.

I've started leaving my butter out on the counter after reading that it does not need to be refrigerated.

R241, Sounds like Shakespeare is describing social media.

Love it R241, we had to memorize a few pieces from a column A column B type list of the classics in High School and that was one of the ones I chose. It’s a great piece to ham it up to. Is a tendency to screech Shakespeare considered uncultured?

I hate wine. I will take a sip of champagne when the occasion calls for it but that’s as far as it goes.

Velveeta has its place in cheese soups and some mac and cheeses.

The Velveeta of old, yes. But have you really eaten Velveeta in the past 15 years or so? It's awful. Something is different.

there are a few insane clown posse songs that are camp and funny enough that I legitimately like them

Most high fashion makes me laugh. I just can't stop concentrating on how impractical the "high-concept" looks are.

I love white bread untoasted with butter. Can't stand whole wheat anything. I hate fish

I dislike the taste of anything with alcohol. I'll drink socially because it's expected and I've been drunk in my youth and liked the feeling... but the actual taste of booze? Yuck!

R235, A fried Spam sandwich with a slice of melted Kraft cheese, mayo, and tomatoes is the best.

I love cool aid

Sushi is nasty. Lemme get the chicken teriyaki.

Idk if its uncultured, more like simple, but one of my favorte treats are regular old ice cream sandwiches....the cheap one you got in the lunch room cafeteria that are just that, sandwiches of vanilla icre cream between 2 square chocolate cookies.

I love Ritz peanut butter crackers. And Cinnamon Toast Crunch. And Golden Grahams. And Frosted Flakes.

I put ice cream on pop tarts, and serve it as a dessert.

As long as you’ve toasted the pop tarts, that sounds delightful

I like ketchup on my steak sometimes.

The ocean is scary

The Beatles. I hate the Beatles. Mediocre smug music. George was the only one I could stand.

We were having fun, but you went too far r266.

I sometimes listen to Nickelback.

R103 But have you tried eating it with Miracle Whip?

As much as I love classic homemade mashed potatoes, I am with you, R20. Instant mashed potatoes taste great—I don't give a fuck. They are also cheap, quick to prepare, and require only boiling water. They are frighteningly undemanding and yet are still satisfying.

One of our special dinners when I was young was cube steak with mashed potatoes and creamed corn. And we ate it with ketchup, R266. I still look back on it with some fondness, even though I haven't had cube steak or creamed corn since.

I’ve never had cubed steak that didn’t involve some sort of brown gravy r273.

Ketchup is absolutely my favorite condiment. I put it on my hotdogs as I despise mustard of any kind. I love cheap red wine and Jiffy cornbread slathered in margarine.

I gather it usually was, but in my family, cube steak was pan fried and served with ketchup. It was a lot like eating a hamburger patty without the bun.

I like creamed tuna on toast or rice.

I really like BBQ sauce.

I like Kraft Macaroni and cheese. I really like it with diced tomatoes in it, Kraft cheese square on the top all in a pyrex baking dish and then baked in the oven as a casserole.

GoFundMe is the most ethical, moral method to encourage others to part with their superfluous cash.

I thought I was the only one who ate croutons as a snack.

I forget the brand, but there were Caesar flavored croutons that I used to snack on. Yum.

Marie Callender?

Mrs. Cubbeson?

Whatever’s on sale

Spanking's not bad for every single child. If they're in the minority of kids who like to be cruel or hit for the fun of it (I don't think it always comes from parents-- sometimes kids are just mean) they should know what it feels like.

R281 Perhaps they were Pepperiidge Farm? My sister and I used to eat both their Classic Seasoned and Caesar croutons out of the package like they were snack food. Mom was not pleased when she went looking for the croutons! .. I think they were the best. .. Pepperidge Farm had made them for years, but dropped the crouton product line at some point.

Instant coffee will do in a pinch.

Cheap prepared horseradish from the supermarket is great.

Im.as liberal as it gets but just too many migrants, enough already , from Europe to the US Border, Canadian border, just too many.

Yeah, right, very liberal.

Well an uncultured liberal—per the thread title 🥴

I sometimes eat croutons dipped in blue cheese dressing with a glass of red wine when I get hungry at night and watching some fav tv show.

I love Marischino cherries.

I was at a wedding reception for one of my sisters (at a gun club) this weekend and they served the port wine almond covered cheese ball as one of the appetizers. I thought of this thread of course.

How many balls did you take into your mouth?

However many you took dear R294 times zero.

Oops. Sorry 🤕

Get her Jade!

What are you so sorry for R296?

Because I failed to see the verified name. I can be bitchy and rude, but I’m not anti-L or some kind of misogynist. I try to own up to my misreading of various posts…should it happen.

At a wedding reception a DJ is more fun than a band.

Agreed!

Apology happily accepted.

The best reception i went to was in a RC church hall—beer, but no alcohol. The DJ played so much great Springsteen and classic rock, R&B and soul that no one realized we were sober the whole time (‘shroomers excepted).

R302 😘

R288, honestly curious - have the migrants had a direct effect on your daily life, or are you just horrified by what the TV or your grandpa says in front of his TV?

R305 don’t engage …not worth it

I avoid mayonnaise and opt for mustard in most instances. I am not particularly about the brand of mustard although the spicier type are better tasting

Listening to opera is more entertaining than going to a performance which bores me to tears.

R288, I seriously doubt you're "as liberal as it gets." You're a racist bigot, own it. Stop calling yourself a bigot.

Musical theater is for cretins

I'm not against migrant coming in per se. I am upset at the backlash it causes against liberal poltical parties/ leaders I support. The Maga/Trucker Convoy types have ambushed migrant/immigration crisis as the reason for their despair and attached their poltical lamentations to this so YES enough of them. They are causing societal divsions.

[quote] The best reception i went to was in a RC church hall

What does RC mean?

It’s a brand of cola, r312/Rose.

You get one guess. Get it wrong = Auto-da-fé

No one ever expects the Spanish Inquisition R312.

My Southern-raised heart adores mayonnaise. I think it is delicious and improves so many things, I would never eat cold cut sandwiches without it. But eating mayonnaise outside is disgusting. I don't know why, but mayo gets a fishy taste outdoors.

R311, you're against further immigration because conservatives hate it so much? Why not put the blame where it belongs, on conservative bigotry and fearmongering and not on foreigners seeking a better life?

R312 I'd assume Roman Catholic.

I love JFG mayonnaise because it's sweet. I guess I'm forever stuck in the south as it's hard to find anywhere else.. Lol

R318 are you sure?🧐

Once in a blue moon, I crave pussy.

R320 How wet?

Wetter than momma’s mussy on a prison yard slip-n-side?

I listen to easy listening muzac when I work. It helps my blood pressure.

lol I don’t know, R321. Normal wetness, I guess.

Fried bologna sandwiches. I have one about every 5 to 8 years.

This has been taken as both uncultured or good taste depending on who I talk to, but I fucking hate Tarantino movies

I love Count Chocula.

Yup, Count Chocula is good. Used to enjoy Boo-berry as well when that was still available.

Same R327, I buy it every October and go down memory lane to the 70s.

I like opera arias. Mostly female ones. I think I would be bored sitting through an entire opera.

R327

If you marinate cubed Spam in pineapple juice, soy sauce and pepper then crisp it a bit in an air fryer it is absolutely delicious.

Velveeta Mac and Cheese with ground beef and canned green beans combined together is a delicious comfort food.

Pop tarts. Every now and then I go through a period of craving them.

Grocery Store Pizza tastes better than Pizza Chain Pizzas

R333, a toasted pop tart is a gift from the heavens.

remember the original cinnamon w/white icing & strawberry plain

I love McDonald's. ❤️

McD’s crispy chicken, extra pickles and hot mustard is like eating Thai.

I don't get why people like Picasso at all

Contemporary art is all crap

Art major here. I never liked Picasso or Braque. One day, in class, a teacher was showing us a slide of a Picasso, IIRC. Teacher said: "Oh, it's upside-down." Classmate said: "How can you tell."

That said, I do like Miró and Kandinsky.

Agreed, R341. Kandinsky, DiChirico, Rothko, Tanguy, all favorites of mine, but not Picasso or Pollock.

I know it’s simple to make your own tomato sauce and I do it all the time. But I also like Hunts brand garlic and herb tomato sauce in a can served with ground beef, over spaghetti and sprinkled with Kraft green can cheese.

Renoir and Dreyer are my favorite movie directors and Bergman is my favorite stage director.

But Ann Margret gives the greatest performance by anyone in anything ever in Bye Bye Birdie.

Since I qas a kis, I've never had dressing with my salad. I think it is unnecessary. I've never liked it
