What did you seriously hate as a child?

[brockash]

I would say long car journeys

running...still not a fan but it was absolute misery when I was a kid.

when my mom would cook liver & onions.
Thankfully she stopped after a few times b/c we refused to eat it.

Gee, I can’t think of anything that I would say I seriously hated as a child. I must have been having an ideal childhood and didn’t fully appreciate it!

I hated long car trips. My hippy-dippy dad would pack the giant, canvas tent, we’d drive hours and hours, stop, set up tent, sleep, take down tent, drive for hours … repeat. Now when I travel, no tent EVER, and I stay in one hotel the entire trip (and I fly)

Interesting. My dad was definitely not hippy-dippy, but we had a giant canvas tent (big family!) We never drove more than a couple of hours though, and stayed put for a week in a state park. The only vacations I had as a kid, and I did enjoy them.

We had a pop-up camper when the kids were young, and took it to Disney a couple of times, Maine, Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. Regularly drove 12 hours to visit my in-laws at their summer cabin. (Broke it up with a stop at a hotel or my sister's house overnight.) My kids don't mind long drives, son-in-law never went anywhere when he was young so he doesn't like them.

NOT so lucky about stopping it in or house.

Brussel sprouts

Adding Spicy Brown Mustard is my solution

Yeah I hated to eat those, do people even eat them these days.
What was even worse was pork hocks, so fatty and disgusting. Once I knew what they really were, I refused to eat them.

Plain white rice.

School. Ferris Bueller was my hero!

A Junior and my 2 best friends in the neighborhood were seniors. We had a friend who worked in the attendance office. We would walk to the bus stop... and walk on by down to Mark's house who lived with his dad, always gone for work before he was. We planned to walk to school late around lunch time. Every single time he would put Ferris Bueller on the Betamax. We never made it to school.

We would go in late and check in at the attendance office. Early enough before phone calls were made and the student working and checking latecomers in would have to fill out slips and they were sent to your teachers to let them know you were in school while not on the attendance sheet. Our friend didn't fill it out for us obviously. Teachers all now think we are absent, office thinks we're in school, no absences, but rather we are now cutting through the woods to go do anything but school.

We did this a lot. And we always had the intention to walk and go in late but every dang time he would throw Ferris Bueller in. If you could check in and leave and not go to school because of a friend in the attendance office, would you be going to afternoon classes? Neither would we. LOL.

Walking through a neighborhood with full intentions on going late and staying, a group of older folk are walking the neighborhood. "Hey, shouldn't you boys be in school?" We said we were heading in, just walking in late, maybe we won't make it, it's too nice of a day. They laugh and we chit chat a little bit with them and go our separate ways. Couple hours later, as it definitely was too nice of a day, we are at the mall, just came out of the arcade. We hear behind us, "Hey boys!!! I see ya didn't make it!" and they're back there laughing away.

School and onions, I have not changed much since then

 

[leebee]

Lima beans, salt cod, scrapple, Brussels sprouts. Not bad considering what we DID eat: Kidney, liver, heart, gizzard, tripe, any and all fish, tongue, mushrooms, spinach, beets, etc.

Also amusement parks, because I get so dreadfully motion sick. I either went on rides and was sick all day or didn't go on rides and was bored and sad, watching everyone else have fun!

Piano lessons and the few recitals that were part of that. I never wanted lessons but my dad played so we had a piano ( I have same piano in my house right now). I dreaded practicing and I do not remember ever having a positive experience playing. 2 different piano recitals which I was absolutely terrified of doing and I believe scarred me FOR LIFE of public speaking. Playing-speaking same difference as all eyes were on me.

 

[LoveSpringsteen]

Tomatoes and mushrooms. Still not a fan.

 

[2SLM]

Waking up at 530am everyday to goto daycare before school, then all summer too.

 

[VFL]

The game Operation. I would cry and run from the room every time it buzzed

 

[DVCjj]

Milk.

Still hate it.

My wife hates Liver and Onions so I have to order it when we are in a restaurant if I want it.
My wife was horrified over the course of a couple of months when I ordered it at a Family restaurant and she commented she wondered why they sold it, and the waitress said it was their best selling entree. Then I ordered it an another Family restaurant, she made the same comment and the waitress there said it is one of the most popular comfort foods.
I am overdue for a plate of Liver, Onions and Bacon.
