I am also in the boat of not liking Star Wars but I do not like anything sci fi related so there is that.
I also might be the only one who likes to eat a pickle with a cheese stick xD! It gives it a pickle cheese taste!
Also a lot of people here where I live do not like anime and do not like people who like anime... I for one love anime and think it has more values and life lessons then that of americanized cartoons.

At my heart, I will always be a Socialist. In practice, I am a Capitalist.
Fundamentalism is a plague that turns decent people into raving lunatics. If your beliefs are so important to you that you cannot dare to question them, you are mentally damaged, and shouldn't have the right to vote, or hold political office.
Gun control works. Gun bans don't. Learn the bloody difference.
The war on drugs is one of the single greatest travesties the United States has ever contrived, and it spawned one of its greatest horrors--the privatized prison system. People who support these things blatantly don't understand either history or the justice system.
I don't hate paying taxes. I think people who call taxes "theft" are generally poorly disguised anarchists who have little understanding of social contract or western philosophy in general. They're likely the same kinds of people who believe that chaos is preferable to order, even in instances where chaos would result in pointless human suffering.
Welfare would be ten times more efficient if you simply obliterated all existing forms of welfare and wrote everyone who earned below X amount of money a tax refunded paycheque. If you're seriously so concerned that the poor might waste that money on drugs and alcohol and kill themselves in the process, then understand that your position is that the poor cannot be helped because they will destroy themselves regardless.
The European Union is a generally good idea, run by bureaucratic morons who are so far removed from the common populace that they're more concerned with whether or not bottled water hydrates, than the potential collapse of the entire Union.
Churches should be allowed to deny gay couples. So should cake shops. If they want to deny themselves 10%+ of the population's money and get a metric fuckload of bad press, that's on them. Let the Free Market correct this--vote with your money, not with poorly measured, poorly thought out opinion laws.
The patriarchy is much like the devil: An omnipresent conspiracy theory force that has operated for thousands of years, with the express purpose of suppressing particular groups of people (women/christians/jews), for clandestine reasoning that makes no coherent sense if you think about it for more than five minutes.
People who think that "writing the rich tax breaks will create jobs" confuse me. The only purpose of Capitalism is the generation of wealth. If you spend any wealth, you only do so to generate more wealth. If a Venture Capitalist creates jobs, he only does so with the express purpose of getting a greater return (via the selling of products and services from those jobs) than he initially invested into them. Trickle Down theory was tacked onto general Capitalist theory later, and big surprise, it doesn't fucking work--the gap between rich and poor has only grown with tax breaks for the rich, not stayed steady, nor shrunk.
Ronald Reagan was not a great president. He was a charismatic sock puppet with a hand shoved so far up his ass that you could mistake him for the 80's version of Mitt Romney. Reaganomics is one of the stupidest ideas for an economic plan that I have ever had the misfortune of learning.
Never trust big corporations. Never trust the rich. Never trust the government. Don't hate them, don't try to destroy them, but never trust them... Always be skeptical of them, always question their motives. That is social contract 101. Therefore, if you're a registered Republican or Democrat, and you think the other party is comprised of nothing but mad fools and enemies, you are the very cancer killing American Democracy. Congratulations.

I enjoy mixing fries with fast food ice cream. It's a weird combination, but I like the sweet and salty
I love mixing foods! Though I have noticed that what my favorite thing to do is mix my sodas. Everyone thinks I'm weird when I get a fountain drink with 5 different sodas. Am I the only one who does this?I enjoy mixing fries with fast food ice cream. It's a weird combination, but I like the sweet and salty

The song Watch Me gives me a headache. I would rather dance to an orchestra with every instrument is Keemstar.

There are hardly any turn-offs I have. (There are a few exceptions, but I'd rather not start listing these things on a public forum. ^~^)
I value honesty over politeness. (Seems to make a lot of people salty though...)
I don't like memes. (I do use them or reference them at times, but I usually avoid them.)
I also don't give a $#@& about religion, politics, LGBT, or any of that stuff. It doesn't matter to me. I'm a straight(sorta), white male.

I kid, of course. Unpopular opinions, eh? Let's see...
I don't like chocolate
New Year's is my favorite holiday.
That's about all I've got.

-- I do not care much for going out with friends and doing stuff often. It could just be the friends that I have (note, not ALL my friends are like this but quite a few are) that seem like they constantly want to go into town and do *insert activity here*. I work part time along with being a college student, many a evening and days off I would like to just relax at home with internet and netflix. Rather than going back out again and often still being close to my place of work or college (kinda feels I can't get away from either even when I'm off the clock or not in class).
I understand why the biggest two that bug me to hang out. Both don't currently work (they baby sit or do other odd jobs) and both are in college (one with me but different major, the other goes to a 2 year college). Where they normally only get out of the house a couple times a week for classes and have a lot of free time, which leads to boredom. I love them both, but I wish they bug someone else to hang out. =_=
