    Everyone here at PC hates something every now and then.

    So, what are the things you hate so much you'll never use it as your avatar or signature?

    What if anyone dared you to use those images in your avatar or signature?

    Why do you hate this/that thing?


    One thing that you will never, ever see in my avatar or signature is...

    So, what are the things you hate so much you'll never use it as your avatar or signature? Red, Ash, and Pikachu. Also small economy cars and crappy budget motel chains like Super 8 and Days Inn.

    What if anyone dared you to use those images in your avatar or signature? Respectfully decline.

    Why do you hate this/that thing? The first three are my least favorite aspects of Pokemon, because they're ugly and overhyped. Small economy cars simply aren't my style, and budget motel chains terrify me.

    So, what are the things you hate so much you'll never use it as your avatar or signature? Those that I believe that doesn't suit my interests in an avatar and a signature.

    Sorry, but no. :'33
    Why do you hate this/that thing?
    Simply because they are not my type, and maybe because I don't like it.

    So, what are the things you hate so much you'll never use it as your avatar or signature?: Anything pink, yellow or My Little Pony related.

    What if anyone dared you to use those images in your avatar or signature?: I wouldn't do it.

    Why do you hate this/that thing?: Yellow and pink are 2 of my least favorite colors and MLP isn't one of my favorite shows.

    Anything that I don't like and I wouldn't want as my avatar or signature (with exceptions, such as for Remiel I wouldn't mind using the avatar that says 'I seem to be dead. Is that okay?'). With this said, I don't think there is too many things I wouldn't have as a signature or avatar, because I actually don't dislike many characters, or things in general. Another thing I probably wouldn't like is something I'm not too interested in, since I've always felt that avatars and signatures are to show who you are and what you're interested it. Unless I found the avatar absolutely adorable and simply had to use it, you probably won't ever see me with a signature of avatar with something that I don't know about.

    If someone dared me to use an avatar or signature that I dislike, I would decline as politely as possible. Chances are if they actually dared me to keep something that I disliked and I actually tried keeping it, it would absolutely fail, knowing me and my inability to keep things the same unless I reaaaally like it, or for some other reason.

    Now, if this was asked back when I was glued to PokeSupe!Red, the answer would simply be 'anything that isn't Red'. However, I've progressed out of that state so obviously the list has dwindled greatly.

    I was almost certain you'd mention Wikileaks before I even clicked this thread lol. xD;

    So, what are the things you hate so much you'll never use it as your avatar or signature?
    Magenta/yellow text, graphic smileys, large fonts (fonts exceeding 5 is considered to be large imo), ugly pokemons, Comic sans+Papyrus (fortunately it's not on PC :D), Pixelated jpeg images and etc etc :x

    What if anyone dared you to use those images in your avatar or signature?
    Hell no

    Why do you hate this/that thing?

    Magenta/yellow text & Comic sans+Papyrus aaand large fonts :: Not so pretty, blinding, hard ro read, annoying & such

    Graphic smileys :: They look kinda childish and the text smileys are prettier imo x3;

    Pixelated jpeg images :: Nobody likes them D:<

    Ugly Pokemons :: Nobody likes them either o3o

    I don't see why hating a thing is necessary for simply not wanting to have it as an avi/sig, lol. Anyway, for me, I will never use stock imagery or something I didn't create, nor will I do fanart. I also will never use bad typography. Avis/sigs to me are meant to be reflective of who I am, and I am an artist focused on my own original creations. There was one time a couple years ago that I briefly used pictures from the Rurouni Kenshin manga in my set, but other than that I've kept it totally original and my own.

    Why do people hate Papyrus? ;o; /used it once for a sig. and had people telling me to change it to Comic Sans, which was better, but still... (also the text was image-form, just so no one calls this out as a contradiction to Touko's post)

    Anyways...

    So, what are the things you hate so much you'll never use it as your avatar or signature?
    You could not, in a million years, get me to have blinding/very out-of-place text (in terms of colors or text or w/e) and terrible quality images. I'm very picky when it comes to fanart, and even pickier when it comes to what fanart to display in my themes (typically; I'm a bit less picky about this when it comes to avvies). I would also never put any American-originated songs (unless it's BGM) or lyrics in my sig. The only exception would probably be the original Pokemon theme and (unless they did originate in Japan) the songs from Sonic Adventure (particularly Open Your Heart, Believe in Yourself, and It Doesn't Matter)... OK, let me rephrase this. I would never put any American-originated songs in my sig. unless it was BGM or from an anime or video game.

    What if anyone dared you to use those images in your avatar or signature?
    I'd do it for a day, but then I'd go back to what I originally had. Unless it was breaking the signature rules, in which case I'd flat out refuse (don't want to get in trouble with that, now do I?). Although...with the American music, I think I'd never put it in regardless.

    Why do you hate this/that thing?
    ...I think it should be fairly obvious to most people why I'd hate putting in LQ images and gross text. As for the American music, I just think most of it's stupid nowadays and can't really see why the hell it's so popular. Call me a "weeaboo" or w/e (except that I am willing to put in Swedish and classical music; that stuff rocks) but I'm just not a fan of American music.

    Funny how you say you would never put anything related to WikiLeaks, but in your sig you say you're a WikiLeaks hater.
    So, what are the things you hate so much you'll never use it as your avatar or signature?
    Anything pink, flowery, or related to current Disney Channel
    What if anyone dared you to use those images in your avatar or signature?
    Lol no
    Why do you hate this/that thing?
    Pink: I just see so often since my little sister has EVERYTHING in pink.
    Flowery: Just not really anything I'm into
    Current Disney Channel items: They're soiling the good Disney name with crap shows.

    Anything related to the Philadelphia Eagles. [NFL team] (Logo, players, stadium, etc.)

    Flat out say no. And then say "when I say no, I mean it."

    Why do you hate this/that thing?
    The cockiness and obnoxiousness of their fanbase makes me hate them with a passion.

    I, er, dunno. Animals defecating? Midget porn? People touching their necks? (That's a big thing with me; can't look at it or anything.) I don't have problems with any of them - animals need to defecate, midget porn is a highly lucrative niche, etc. - but I can't imagine having them in an avatar or signature. To be honest, I probably won't give up my 'theme' of cartoon/children's TV characters for a long time, but I can't say that I'll always have it, as things and circumstances change for whatever reason.

    I'm surprised that so many of you know my hate of Wikileaks.

    @AquaticWartortle I hate Wikileaks but you have to friend request me to find out why as it is personal. I do not share my hate with random users.

    @cacturne4512 The reason I mention that I am a "Wikileaks Hater" in my signature is because this signature (the one I'm currently using) is a descriptive signature for users who don't know my personality much. So this one is an exception.

    @Pokemon Trainer Touko You really do predict what I say...

    To be honest, I'll never have any graphics in my signature again minus NaNoWriMo widgets in November (when they're finally posted ;___; *waiting patiently*). I don't even have my signatures on, and I prefer something minimalistic anyway.

    As for my avatar, I want to keep it the Persona 4 main character. It has been for years now. It just feels like me.
    If it did turn into something else? I would never have anything of the Regi line of legendaries. Words cannot describe my dislike of them. I CANNOT. It may be the only thing I refuse to use. Minus things not allowed on PC of course. :p

    I will never use a Taylor Swift avatar. I use many celebs as my avatars, but she would never be one. As for sigs...I can't really think of anything. Probably...CSS. Well, CSS by me. I cannot do CSS, so if on the off chance I have it in my sig one day, I'mma just let you know right now, I did not do it. lol

    Those 'I don't treat my Pokémon like drones' things.

    What the hell is a dare?

    Why do you hate this/that thing?
    Because, as we all know, data in video games have feelings and emotions.

    Also, there's a strange amount of negativity towards ponies in this thread. o3o

    ^ A dare is a challenge to do something.

    I don't think I would say that there is anything I'd keep out of my sig. I would put whatever's clever at the moment. Whatever makes me laugh, or I think looks cool, no matter how stupid or unpopular it might be. I'm pretty open, haha.

    Justin Bieber, My Little Ponies, things that are over-feminine (I don't mind a little of femininity,but some things are just too wrong to be sued by a boy). And things in gray-scale.I like colorful avys.

    What if anyone dared you to use those images in your avatar or signature?
    I'd politely decline.If they persisted,I'd simply ask them to do it themselves instead.

    Why do you hate this/that thing?
    Justin Bieber is obnoxious (sorry if I offended somebody), My Little Pony makes me feel real wrong with myself and grayscale is too "dead" ...

    Ponies. And I don't really like those corny stock images either.

    What if anyone dared you to use those images in your avatar or signature?
    Errrr I'd probably go for the former, just for the lolz.

    Why do you hate this/that thing?
    Cause I see it everywhere and it's an annoying craze, and because they are corny.

    My Little Pony or Harry Potter. I don't honestly hate either of those but they're just wayyyy too common around here and I'm sat here thinking "...where's the originality?". To be fair, if they're done well then I'm impressed but I don't reckon I could pull it off myself and that's only really in the case of HP anyway. Although tbh I haven't had a sig for a little while now and if I do ever have one again it'd probably just be a couple of lines of text.

    If someone dared me to do it? Depends who it is but the most likely thing I'd say would be "sure lol it's nbd".
