7 Shows And Movies Everyone Watches Except Me

All I ever hear about is GoT and "Endgame" — except I don't watch either of them.

I feel left out, but also don't have the energy to start watching them now, so I just continue to wallow in my despair when I can't join in a conversation.

"Game of Thrones"

Giphy

I've never been a person who likes medieval times or fantasy genre, so I was never attracted to this show. Now literally everyone watches it, and I'm stuck hearing spoilers for a show I don't watch.

"The Walking Dead"

Giphy

Again, not a huge fan of this genre. I like scary movies, but this show just never appealed to me. Everyone watched "The Walking Dead" when I was in high school, and I'd nod along like I TOTALLY knew what they were talking about. PSA: I didn't.

"The Avengers"

Giphy

I don't know the difference between Marvel and whatever other comic companies there are, and honestly I don't care. I watched Spider-Man once when I was little, and that's the extent to which I know anything in the realm of this genre.

"The Office"

Giphy

Honestly, I think this show is stupid. *Mic drop.*I really don't think it's funny at all, and I'm not a huge fan of it. Everyone I tell that to thinks I'm crazy, so I don't even bother talking about it anymore. But "The Office" didn't win me over.

"Breaking Bad"

Giphy

I get where this show could be good, but I've never taken the time to sit down and watch it. I might at some point in the future, but I'm still so behind in this trend that I don't even know if it's worth it. The plot is intriguing, though. Who knew your chemistry teacher could make meth?

"Stranger Things"

Giphy

I watched two episodes of this show and got bored. Maybe if I would've watched it longer, I would've liked it. Who knows. But for the time being, it wasn't my favorite. Next!

"Star Wars"

Giphy

I watched one Star Wars movie and really thought I was going to fall asleep by the end of it. It was SO long, and I was SO confused the entire time. I didn't know what was happening (granted, I don't think I started with the first one), but I wasn't a fan. I know it's one of the best series of all time, and I could see why, it just wasn't one of my favorites.

Call me crazy, but I'm not a huge TV person. What are some shows that you watch that no one else does, or that everyone watches but you don't?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
