I used to hate country music...now, I've gotten to like it.
When I was little, I loved to eat vienna sausage. But, now it makes me gag.
I used to like contemporary R&B (which isn't really R&B at all, in much the same way that contemporary country isn't really country) and dance/house music...now it makes me want to jab pencils in my ears.
I used to love fried chicken (especially legs)...now, it disgusts me. I won't eat any part of a chicken except the breast.
I used to hate musicals, but that's quickly changing (I recently saw "Cabaret"...the play, not the movie...fabulous).

I Hate show Will and Grace except for the character of Karen who is funny. My FAVORITE current comedy is the great Everybody Loves Raymond (which we will sadly be loosing after this year)

I think the actors on the show are talented & Debra Messing is beautiful; I just don't care for the scripts/jokes.

Marie Barone is one of the greatest TV characters ever, IMO. Doris Roberts is hilarious in the role.

Oh you guys are people who think W&G is not funny, but that ELR is...hmmm, i'm starting to see the vibe, the pattern...it sort of reminds me of people who would love a McDonalds hamburger, but not a perfectly cooked filet mignon...I like Raymond ok, too, but c'mon....

[ShamHy89]

Boston Red Sox

How come?

(If I recall correctly you're the Ledge's resident Cubs fan right?)

I don't eat red meat, especially fast food, so this weak analogy is lost on me.

Jazz & Nicole Kidman grew on me, too.

I'll add another. When I was little, I loved snow, but after living as an adult in Pennsylvania, Illinois, and Wisconsin, I HATE it. Never want to see it again.

Are you a native Texan? I'm not really into country, but my tolerance grew once I moved to Austin.
Breasts are the best parts of the chicken, especially the crunchy chicken nipple.
I never saw Cabaret (play or movie) but my parents saw Liza Minneli perform years ago & haven't stopped saying how great she was.

I moved here from Louisiana. I didn't start liking country until I moved to Austin...so, maybe that's it.

People actually question my gayness when I tell them that I've never seen the movie "Cabaret." Then, I'm forced to admit to owning an Eartha Kitt CD in order to redeem myself.

I don't even know what Eartha sang. She's just Catwoman to me.
As far as questioning your gayness, are people confused because you have a wife or something?

LOL...no, no. I think it's mainly because I have an aversion to gay clubs (and all forms of "partying," really) and I rarely have sex.

Let's see...had major ambition to become a television journalist. Although poli sci and broadcasting will most likely continue to be my majors as I finish school, you couldn't pay me enough to be one. Recently I've cultivated a likeness....tolerence, rather, for country music. Sometimes after work, I listen to jazz on the ride home...and I like it I used to love red meat when I was younger and now I don't like it much at all. Instead of going out, i'd rather sleep.
