Don't overthink it. First thoughts. And exclude family and friends. It's taken as granted that they would be included by everyone........on one list, or the other!
Here's mine, in no particular order.
I like..........
1. Everything about the sea.
2. Rooftop gardens and beautiful balconies.
3. Skiing.
4. Watching and talking about F1.
5. Travel, seeing new places, doing new things.
6. Puppies, marmottes, guinea pigs and similar lovely animals.
7. Shoes, especially soft comfy ones that make no sound on the pavement
8. The sun on my body, also the smell of summer rain.
9. Being creative.
10. Dreadlocks.
I realise I've missed off food and wine but I've run out of space.
I don't like.........
1. Spiders
2. People who are unkind to children or animals.
3. Asking where the toilet is in bars or restaurants.
4. Hypocrites, bullies and liars.
5. Doing silly things like tripping over in public.
6. Slow/erratic/inconsiderate drivers
7. Boiled vegetables ( and seaside guest houses that smell of them)
8. Having to deal with stuff. Like phone calls, emails, appointments and arrangements.
9. Getting lost
10. Pomp, ceremony and snobs.

I like.. 1) Cured meats, the good ones from Italy & Spain 2) Wine. I like trying different types, regions and finding unusual and off the beaten path pairings. There's a wine for any occasion. 3) Cheese. sheep, goat, cow, raw, artisan, farm fresh or cave aged. There's a cheese for any occasion. 4) Bread. Crusty, flaky, hot from the oven or toasted with butter or as the handle to my cured meats and cheese. 5) Porsche cars, mostly the air cooled vintage stuff but I wouldn't say no to a Cayman GT4 if I ever had more money than sense. 6) Great television. 7) F1! (thank you RC for letting me know I missed a spot)  8) A fantasy book series that I haven't discovered yet and find that there's a dozen books waiting for me to be read. 9) My current self 10) Walking around the neighborhood, bumping into people, getting a coffee or seeing a friend as I walk about, so generally social interactions. I dislike... 1) Self Check out grocery pay counters, I refuse to use them period! 2) Road rage and the drivers that suffer from it. 3) Running out of stuff while cooking, out of sugar or half & half while making coffee or out of paper towels when your hands are wet. 4) Ignorance and the people that wield it liberally under the guise of opinion. 5) Yard work! 6) Traffic jams. 7) BAD MUSIC. 8) Extreme heat in the summer and extreme cold in the winter. 9) Injustice (but this is more than a mere dislike) 10) Getting to the gym when I really don't feel like getting to the gym. Amzaingly enough, leaving the gym afterwards always makes me glad I went and put in the sweat. Go figure. |

RC I specifically didn't read your before I wrote mine as I was sure you'd influence my through process. I'm glad I did. I think we "covered" for each other well enough though. Can't believe I didn't even mention F1.  |

1) Sleep 2) My car 3) My job/business 4) Icecreams (Haagen D or B&J) and chocolates 5) F1, especially the current F1 since I'm finally NOT supporting an underdog since 1999. 6) Any talk/seminar on investments and money markets....even if I've heard the same speaker, I simply go to listen again. Plus networking opportunities. 7) Chicks who are humble yet sophisticated. 8) Have a bunch of close knit brothers (from other mothers) which I feel blessed to have met 9) You people on this forum. (cue; awwww) 10) Whenever Federer/Murray loses a tennis match I dislike... 1) Traffic jams 2) Pretentious people 3) Where general society (at least in Asia) is heading - pretentious, fake, selfie sticking Starbucks sipping zombies. 4) Stupid people who can't face facts (even the ones online lol) 5) Food poisoning (Had a bout as soon as I returned from Phuket) 6) Most of the new movies today, they stink. Or maybe I'm getting too critical. 7) Rude strangers, service personnel....ok their job and lives suck, but they're paid to suck it up and fake a smile to make me feel good, so DO that. 8) Shitty all round Msian weather. Which is why I wish I could head to Europe one day and settle down. 9) New BMWs (the 3 and 5 series are trash) 10) Hate (not dislike) the Prime Minister of Malaysia and along with majority in this country, wish to see him and his wife assassinated. I like finishing strong. |

WB. Good idea not to read mine first. When reading others you realise things you've missed. I love your 6 and 8 'like' , the book and TV ones. What happened to 7? You can go and add in F1! Your 8 'dislike'would be on my 'like' list.  Hammer. Your number 9 'like'  I love that one! But your number 8 'dislike'! You prefer grey skies and rain.  Well I guess I'm speaking there just for England not the rest of Europe. I like how you love your work and things connected to it. You'll go far. RyRy. I like both your 10's, clever. Coffee would be on my like list. I think it's synonimus (SPL) with sitting down and chilling out. I'm with you on your 5 'dislike' . |

Clever Ryan!  coffee is just nasty, the smell of it is horrible. I hate making people coffee when ever I'm making drinks for guests. |

I adore the smell of fresh coffee. I don't always think the taste lives up to the smell.

I couldn't make it through a coffeeless day. When I say coffee however, I mean COFFEE, not watered down or pretentious Starbucks fraffy drinks.

I'm addicted to black coffee (no sugar) about 30min before I hit the gym. My body immediately breaks out in sweat and makes me feel ready to 'go'.

Family and friends are banned from the lists. But I will forgive you because I like your lists.  Two questions. What is a family Bulls hit? And , you like cooking. What is your signature dish? |

Bulls hit was supposed to be bull shit
Tomato horrible things... in whole form, as a sauce like a pizza topping that is fine. I don't like ketchup either.
Signature dish changes, at the moment. At the moment I am trying to perfect a breakfast ides I have.
It is a sausage meat ring that holds an egg which is fried then sandwiched between grilled layers of halummi and bacon. I did try making it with lorne but did not work that well.

Oh I see family bullshit! Haha. Well it's family so it's banned anyway. I adore grilled halumi! And thin crispy bacon. That would be yummy. The sausage I could take or leave and not a fan of eggs. But I'm like that with breakfast...picky. |

Turn up the volume and enjoy. Patrick Long shows that a little goes a long way. The car he's driving is probably down 100 horse power than the 935 Turbos he's racing against!
