what to do when you don't like something but can't find a good reason why

Why must I need a reason to NOT like something? When I dont like something and Im asked why, I say CUZ and its the only answer one will get from me. Then I move on to the next thing I can hate......or not hate depending on my mood. BUT, if you insist and twist my arm to find a reason why.....well heres something for you..........HORMONES!!

I think that Blue Bunnies should be banned: 1) God did not create Blue Bunnies (there is no mention of them in Genesis), therefore they cannot exist. 2) Darwin makes no reference to Blue Bunnies, therefore, even if you accept the Theory of Evolution, Blue Bunnies cannot be part of it and therefore do not exist. 3) Blue Bunnies are a drain on the public purse: nobody knows how to tax them, therefore they are not taxed and therefore everyone else has to pay for their existence (even if it can be proved that they exist). 5) Four is an unlucky number and Blue Bunnies have four limbs, so they are unlucky. 7) Seven, three and nine are lucky numbers. J (=10) + B (=2) + 7 + 8 + 0 + 0 = 27 which is 3 x 9 and also contains a 7 ... see point (2) for the remaining digit. 13) I once dreamed I had a blue velveteen toy rabbit as a child (well, I THINK it was originally blue), therefore I ADORE Blue Bunnies and, as the Skin Horse said: [i]"What is REAL?" asked the Rabbit one day, when they were lying side by side near the nursery fender, before Nana came to tidy the room. "Does it mean having things that buzz inside you and a stick-out handle?" "Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real." "Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit. "Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt." "Does it happen all at once, like being wound up," he asked, "or bit by bit?" "It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse. "You become. It takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to people who break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept. Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."[/i] So, you see, nothing is really real unless it is LOVED and it is difficult for people who have sharp edges or break easily to ever become really REAL.

jb okay lets see, a pox on all who think that funny or whimsical discussions are horrible and only serious discussions should be allowed and we should make a rule that all those who make only serious discussions should have to be forced to make one really silly discussion. After all now cardiologists are saying that laughing a certain amount each day is really good for our 'heart health along with some dark chocolate and some nice hot green tea. We could deem it heart health day and all must make just one whimsical discussion that will make us all laugh. lo lol

gay marriage - they just want to destroy the church and marriage.... How many gay people have you seen over at the local church with sledgehammers lately? Or in their hetero friends' faces, trying to break up their marriages?

I think your endless hours of research on this topic have paid off brilliantly, jb.

I only dont like something when there's a reason for me not to like it. I think it has never occurred to me that I didnt like something just because I didnt want to like it. There's always a reason for me not to like something especially when it comes to not liking someone.

Sometimes when you don't like something but don't know the reason, you really don't like it anyway. It's OK to not like things. Often, there is a reason that you haven't discovered yet and at times, those "not particularly valid" reasons really are valid. And sometimes when you use a reason that someone else doesn't like, they call it invalid. :)

Well, I'm opposed to squeaky, screechy voices and think they should be banned from speaking publicly or on the airways. It's not just me being a nitpicker, I feel this way because these voices are a health and safety hazard. I mean, there's the hearing loss which result in medical costs and disability claims which COST THE TAXPAYERS MONEY! Then there are the accidents which will be caused by people who are hard of hearing. Also there's the irritability and mental stress they cause; how many people have been physically or verbally abused because someone was taking their annoyance caused by a high-pitched squeak out on them? How many of us are suffering from the guilt caused by being mean to a loved one because we've just heard one of these squealers speak on TV? Above all, there is the danger to the owners of the screechy voices. We sure wouldn't want someone to haul off and smack one now would we? Or to throw something like eggs or rotten tomatoes? Absolutely, these people should be banned from speaking out loud in public for their own protection! Annie

I have often found myself in this kind of position at work. I think the key thing is to listen to that inner voice saying you do not like this. Sometimes, just naming it frees up your mind to the answer. Other times, I have simply said, this seems the wrong way - let me think about it. Works in contexts where your boss trusts you. Sometimes, it can be a case of putting up any excuse to buy time to come up with better solutions.
