You have probably seen a person change their mind about disliking something the second they hear their friend, for instance, say that they love it. Or witnessed someone push through what looks like torture to them, all the while trying to squeeze out a sincere (-looking) smile.

For one reason or another, some people choose to pretend to like something when they actually don’t. And similarly to said reasons, the things they pretend to like tend to differ from person to person. Members of the ‘Ask Reddit’ community recently discussed what things they believe others lie about liking, and there were quite a few things they pointed their fingers at. Scroll down to find them on the list below and feel free to upvote the ones you agree with the most.

For real. The forced positivity and "we're so happy to be part of the *random brand* family. The endless, pointless presentations and HR talk." Celebrating company values" while underpaying your employees and laying off people without replacing them. But please remind us how we can do more to fill your pockets faster in the future, boss.

    I don't mind a low-key reveal but it seems like everyone is trying to do something even bigger and crazier than ever before (I blame internet culture) and it's gotten so out of hand. Cutting a cake or mixing drinks with family? Sure! Doing these massive balloon releases, or truck peelouts? Too much.

    So moronic, especially given how many people are questioning their gender identity. What I'd love to see are gender fluid, non-binary, and transgenders having a gender reveal party. But this emphasis on an infant's gender is creepy and it isn't focusing on the health and happiness of the child.

    I guess I've been lucky, I've never known anyone who had one. Everybody jumps into a Baby Shower but gender isn't a big focus It is generally told to close family and spreads organically from there. These things rose with all the other trash like reality shows, and so many people are chasing internet fame with no talent visible, ie "Influencers". A certain family comes to mind, their last name starts with K.

    Some people probably have it in a non-stupid way like a baby shower, but I hate idiots who end up burning down a large part of their state or throwing a temper tantrum (and filming it and putting it on the internet) because their kid is going to be the "wrong" gender. A lot of dumba$$ parenting magazines act like that's ok behavior, but it isn't. If you're going to be that upset that your kid won't or will have dangly bits, you shouldn't be a parent. And how do you think the kid will feel when they grow up and see that?

    50 People Share Things They Don’t Believe Anyone Genuinely Likes Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Watched it with my college roommates a couple of times and I was just like “I don’t get it” the entire time. I am really big into makeup and I found two of Kylie’s lip kits very discounted (ten dollars a piece when they were normally going for thirty dollars a piece) and I really didn’t get the appeal. I saw a conspiracy theory on a different subreddit saying that Kylie’s makeup line is a money laundering scheme at this point and that is something that I could actually get behind!

    50 People Share Things They Don’t Believe Anyone Genuinely Likes Poly relationships.

    thrilliam_19:

    I have several friends who all tried poly relationships at some point in their life and every single one ended in disaster, and whenever they were all together in the same room at least one person looked like they were miserable and pretending to be ok with what was going on.
    Someone always got jealous or someone cheated. Or it was an excuse for 3-4 people to fuck each other for a few months until someone got bored and the people that were actually into it got hurt.
    I’m not saying it can’t work, but I have seen zero evidence that it does. I also feel like long-term monogamous relationships are hard, why would adding another person into that relationship make things better or easier?

    I hung out with red hot pie people back when that was a thing in 2007-10 - I wasn’t a swinger my bff was their poster girl and she wanted me there to look out for her etc, I went to party and look after her. NONE of the swingers or poly people are together now, none of them and I’m pretty sure the red hot pie owners are divorced AF, which what do you expect and how do you think a 17 girl was going to make your married relationship stronger? They are deluded at the time and will validate as much as they can, but fast forward a decade or so and it’s evident

    Disagree with this one. Different types of chili peppers and sauces have completly different flavors. My partner loves ultra hot stuff and over the years my heat tolerance has improved where i can handle pretty darn hot too and there is a flavor in there that is more than just burning heat but I think you have to eat spicy frequently to really get your taste buds there.

    Well I would generally agree but I just went to my home town carnival and there was a 5 year old dressed as trump with a Bandage over his ear quickly followed by a small french bulldog dressed as a shark and I have to tell you, it made my day

    A few years ago I was curious how long mine would get, since apparently some (maybe most) men have a terminal length, where their beard just stops growing at a certain point. I let it go until it was in the middle of my chest, and couldn't stand it any more. I wasn't a fan of it blowing up into my face when it was windy.

    Honestly I love it. I like pushing myself, feeling the strain. I know it sounds insane and 20 year old me would have laughed. Now, mom of 33, it's just me-time.

    It helps to really be interested and invested. Ask further and further untill you have a real conversation. Great conversations are often just a couple of questions away. And I say this as a total awkward introvert. Probably one of the best things I learned to do.

    Well, it's like everything else that's worth something: a lot of hard work, a lot of doubts and permanent fear. There are moments of exhaustion, even despair. But there's also fun, laughter, awe, pride and a lot of love. Raised four of them never regretted it. And now I get to enjoy my grandkids.

    50 People Share Things They Don’t Believe Anyone Genuinely Likes Black licorice. It's hard for me to believe there are humans that find the taste enjoyable. The smell alone makes me gag. It's gotta be a genetic thing like how cilantro tastes terrible to some people. For the record, I like cilantro.

    I get the appeal. Like super off the wall game shows. Not my thing, but if the kids are watching it I'll tune in. Definitely worse things online. Better too, but eh... it's fine.

    There is a reason for that....India Pale Ale was used as ballast for the trade ships going to India and then sold on to the British running the colony. It is very heavily hopped to stop it going bad on the journey.

    I think many people in Germany, Russia etc would disagree. Kale can be delicious. Especially since it's changed it's flavour the last decades (in my childhood they were all with more sulfate taste. They did this away. Today I can even eat Brussel sprouts because they now tastes better)

    So, Gin and Tonic exists for a reason. The Gin is to make the Tonic bearable. The Tonic is to keep your case of Malaria in remission, so it doesn’t kill you.

    Nope, until I developed arthritis, I loved giving massages. There's something very soothing and relaxing about the repetitive movements. Now I only do it once in a while, and never for long.

    50 People Share Things They Don’t Believe Anyone Genuinely Likes Honestly, alcohol. Drinking for enjoyment is something I cannot comprehend. Never have I ever drank some alcohol and genuinely enjoyed the taste of it. Cider was close, but I might as well just drink a fizzy drink then.

    Sure, some/most might drink to get drunk, but that too gets boring after a certain age and after a while it comes at the cost of a hangover.

    Obviously never had the right alcohol then, and cocktails are delicious. Not everyone drinks to get drunk. You can have a drink just to get a slight buzz or relax you

    I love learning languages! It's like exploring new maps in a video game, one tiny puzzle piece at a time. Once you get to the point where you can derive new words from context it becomes a straight up detective game!
