FabSwingers.com forum: Things that I don’t think people actually like, but pretend they do ..

.. just to look like they’ve got ‘cred’ with their mates, or because they think other people like it (when actually they don’t, but also think that everyone else does so also play along with the charade just like everyone is in some sort of unvirtuous circle..)

- Guinness

- Drum & bass at a thousand decibels in their cars

- Sushi

- Rupauls Drag Race

.. what else, there must be LOADS, Fabsters!

Guinness is my favourite drink, next to staropramen

I'm the only one out of my friends so it's hardly a macho or fitting in type of thing.

DnB is a headache but who am I to judge.

Smoking. At least, at first. Back when I was an idiot teenager wanting to fit in, I had to practice really hard at liking cigarettes. Standing there all cool and nonchalant whilst trying not to vom is REALLY difficult. Such a plonker.

Good sushi is excellent, but has to be proper fresh fish.

I like Guinness, and although a bit indifferent to oysters, if eating oysters my drink of preference is Guinness.

Cucumber. That's the one. Evil stuff. I'm certain that people only eat it on a dare. Just horrible.

I don't live in london I did for a few years and it has it's own energy. Not going to say it's the best ever but I get the appeal of it.

As much as the cost of certain things is abit crazy, its still a brilliant city. I normally ask people what is London missing that makes it so bad? it has a bit of everything at any time of day that you want it.
