13 Things People Seem To Think Are Good That Actually Aren't

That's a long title. Sure, I could have called it "13 Things Erin Doesn't Like", but the interesting thing about these particular items is that they are actually quite popular. I just can't figure out why! :) So, yeah, this is my opinion on things but well... I'll take any chance to share what I think about stuff! Feel free to disagree (and be wrong).

This is not in any particular order either-- except for number one!

1. Matthew McConaughy wearing a shirt (no explanation needed-- we've covered this topic before I believe?)

2. Kit Kat bars (generally cover something in chocolate and I'm a fan but these are a waste of cocoa beans)

3. The Twilight movie series ('nough said)

4. Lady Gaga’s music (this chic is really just trying too hard)

5. Remaking the Karate Kid (don't mess with a classic. Even if you are Will Smith's kid)

6. Putting raspberries in white chocolate cheesecake (raspberries are fruit, white chocolate cheesecake is dessert. Let's not mix these food groups okay? You don't put green beans on top of your ice cream do you? Exactly.)

7. Letting Glee cover Madonna songs (I love Glee. Seriously. But only Madonna should sing Madonna)

8. Putting meat of any kind on a stick and deep fat frying it (do I really need to explain this?)

9. Giving your precocious nine-year-old son “just because” as a reason not to do something (nine-year-old boys are programmed to think "just because.. her head might explode? Let's find out!")

10. Las Vegas (I don't have enough room here to explain this. Just trust me.)

11. Being mature enough to invite your fiance’s ex-girlfriend to your wedding (wasn't me but it was REALLY not a good idea-- especially when she looked better in her dress than the bride did in hers)

12. Getting up before seven on a Saturday morning (should be a law against it in fact)

13. Advertising a story as a romance when the main characters don't end up together (not cool, Nicholas Sparks, not cool)
