Is there one particular type of individual, group or event that you just don’t feel comfortable being around?
Individuals that talk real close to me make me uncomfortable (male or female). I just can’t stand it when those type of people crowd so close to have a conversation. Hey! Arm length is close enough back off…..or you get a head butt
As a group…. Thespians. My wife and I have enjoyed knowing many who are in the professional performing art profession. As individuals they are wonderful gifted people (gay, straight or eccentric) and great friends but as a group gathered together ………. A party of Thespian is my worst nightmare
Even the Church Choir Christmas Party at our house …..all I want to do is overdose on the Sesame Seed Meatballs to forget.
As for event: I hate High School Award Banquets ………. I love the accomplishment of the kids and the idea of achievements …………. But OMG Fill everyone up with poorly catered food, limited drinks (pop, ice tea, water or coffee) in preparation to a long evening of ….Thanks
Hell Bells! Let the kids vote if the coach should stay or go. Evaluate the program let the now adult kids that are graduation from the program speak their minds.

Carnies. Circus folk. Nomads, you know. Smell like cabbage. Small hands.

I know you're joking, but that is very common. For people who grow up in an environment w/ a small or basically non-existant African American population, it can be natural to feel uncomfortable. It has nothing to do w/ racism, but just being around people different from yourself can be tough for some people. Somehow, growing up in the backwoods of Southern Ohio, I never had a problem being around different types of people.gorocks99 wrote: Blacks.
For me
Individual: I can't stand the guy that wants to talk so badly that he jumps into a conversation w/ a story completely irrelevant to the conversation.
Group: Church people, you can cut the hypocrisy w/ a knife
Event: Weddings. Hate being in weddings.

Kinda similar. I dislike people I don't know well, who have to touch me when they talk to me. :@Belly35 wrote: Individuals that talk real close to me make me uncomfortable (male or female).

My great aunt's friends. They still think I'm in high school (I'll be 26 this year)...and they always pinch me, or try to kiss my face. They smell old and nasty.

Any activists of any type (Religious, environmental, etc). If you are going to try to "convert" me or shove your beliefs in my face, I'm not sticking around. I hate to say it, but this is the main reason I don't like visiting or talking to my grandmother.futbol4ever wrote: Pro-choice activists.

Cleveland sports fans. They've never won anything and think because they outbidded Seattle for Holmgren, they think they're relevant. Wrong!
