I'll go first. Mine is that I can't stand the Deadpool movies. They are self aware and self referential to an obnoxious degree. It's like being continually reminded that I am in a movie. I swear the success of that movie has directly lead to every blockbuster having to have a joke every 30 seconds

I do this same thing. It's there a name for it? Peer defiance?

I think it's just called you guys being contrarian

You could say this if I behaved that way with every recommendation, but it is how something is recommended that is the issue here. Context is key.

Me too, when people recommend me tv shows.

On paper they're series that I would like, but the recommendations years old and I still haven't watched them.

Demand avoidance is a thing, I specifically hate it when people are all “BRO, how have you not seen this, it’s the shit. YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOURE MISSING!” So I just stay away as a fuck you I guess.

I find the people who do the whole "how have you not seen [...]" Have not matured enough too have the awareness that other people have different life experiences. Lack of empathy.
