Dad was a very, very principled man, and he hated any kind of story where the baddies get away with it.
We had an extreme reaction to Storm Corrosion. We were proud of it, but it divided the audience. The metal fans were divided. Some went with it. Some hated it, since it wasn’t the progressive metal supergroup they were waiting for.
My culture-deprived, aspirational mother dragged me once a month from our northern suburb – where the word art never came up – to the Art Institute of Chicago. I hated it.
I told my fans online how I hated my squeaky office chair. One day, a fan sent me a new chair. It was crazy! I still use the chair today. Pretty awesome.
I don’t miss film projecting. I always hated it.
It’s funny, for so long I hated my last name.
‘2001: A Space Odyssey’ – I’d watched and hated it seven times before it provided the first ‘religious experience’ I’d ever had watching a film. Finally, I was able to pick up on what the film was transmitting almost entirely through dialogue.
I hated most music in the 1970s, especially disco, but Bowie was edgier.
If I’m hated, so what? If I’m loved, so what?
A baby! I hated babies. I, who for two and a half years had been the center of a tender universe, felt the axis wrench and a polar chill immobilize my bones. I would be a bystander, a museum mammoth.
I’ve only ever had one doubt about music. It came when I was 11. I hated playing scales.
The romantic idea of the penniless writer is false. It’s terrible. I hated being in debt. I hated the anxiety of not knowing whether we could pay our rent that month. Thankfully, I had a wife who was very supportive and had faith and shared my madness.
My dad was a longshoreman in the Port of Miami. Tough job. I worked down there in the summer once. One day. Never again. My dad was a no-nonsense guy. As a kid, I hated his rules, but as a man, I understand what he was teaching. He taught me you have to work hard for everything you get.
I couldn’t stand it. It was what I thought I always wanted. I was there every day in the trenches, and I hated everything about that job. But what I loved – and what I got from ‘The Tooth Fairy’ – was to see how studio movies were released.
Anything new is a sort of adventure – as a child, I think I was quite bad at tackling new experiences, like unusual foods, and I hated new clothes or having my hair cut.
In Vegas we thrived on being the hated team, on being the bad boys. That’s definitely not my personality. If that helps my team, helps me play better, then so be it.
As a fan, I hated most of ‘The Day After Tomorrow’ movie except for the part where Emmy Rossum and Jake Gyllenhaal were stuck in the library, and I thought, ‘Oh, I like this now.’ There’s something about bringing people together in odd circumstances and exploring the petri dish of what happens.
I hated L.A. when I first got here. Hated it.
I was never considered cool throughout my teens: a very important time to be accepted by someone, especially your peers. Yes, I had all the screaming women, but the guys hated my guts.
If Hank Williams had lived any longer, his name would have been one of the most hated in the land. Nashville would have dug him deep.
I would have hated living in 1813. It wouldn’t have been my cup of tea at all.
Honestly bro, it was one of them situations where I kind of hated the Redskins, you feel me? Like, that was my rivals. Being an Eagle, that was like my rivals.
Eventually, my highbrow parents, who so hated the Eisenhower suburban culture of the 1950s that the only magazines they subscribed to were ‘The Atlantic’ and ‘The New Yorker,’ broke down and got ‘Life’ magazine.
I hated stand-up.
I hated the idea that I would be like my father. Which is one of the reasons I decided I didn’t want to be a writer and wanted to be an actor instead. I wanted to go in a total different direction. But, of course, I ended up being a writer anyway.
I hated the ’80s for years, and now I look back and think, actually, there was something really cool about it.
During the fall of my junior year, I interned in Intergovernmental Affairs in The White House with a focus on outreach to local elected officials. Although I hated the menial tasks the job required, it gave me a window into the power of local government.
I am very much a perfectionist, so if I were to turn heel, I’d want to be the nastiest girls out there, where the people hated me.
I hated prog rock; to me, it was the ultimate expression of a bloated sense of self-importance and mindless self-indulgence.
I absolutely hated high school. As a freshman, I was 5 feet tall and weighed 95 pounds… When I got to high school, I had no social skills. Was I a nerd? More of a dork. Definitely not one of the popular kids.
I replaced someone on ‘Days of our Lives’ once, and the fans hated me. She was a redhead, I was a brunette: they went nuts. Even at fan events, they were rude to me.
I have always hated bowling, and I don’t mind admitting it.
I used to hate my behind, like every other black girl. I hated my behind. I hated my hair. I hated my nose because no one said it was beautiful.
Have I ever hated anyone? Higuain – but he surprised me after getting to know him. No. 9s are selfish, they do a different job, but he has a generous, playful side. He’s a demanding guy because you have to be pamper him, motivate him. He needs affection to feed the incredible potential he has.
As a little girl, I really hated pink, for instance, and I didn’t like wearing dresses. I didn’t want to be a girly girl then, but now I love being a girly girl!
The miniskirt caused an extraordinarily powerful reaction. There were the people who hated it.
I hated Peter O’Toole. I wanted to kill that guy! When they said he was dead, I was happy. People said, ‘Poor Peter O’Toole.’ I was happy!
I grew up in a craftsman’s home, where things were done with our own hands. I did cabinetmaking for four years and I hated it.
I started running, and I hated it. Of course, everyone hates running for the first mile. If you’re running two miles or twenty miles, it always hurts. Now I live it. I look forward to it. It’s really good. It clears my head.
I hated being scared when I was little. Aliens really scared me.
I’ve always hated the term ‘alternative’; I only use it because when I say it, people know what I’m talking about. I always thought it was weird when guys like myself or Patton Oswalt or Dana Gould, these older guys, were called ‘alternative’ comedy.
The atmosphere at my school was very competitive. Young girls were competing with each other every day for status, for leadership, for the affection of the teachers. I hated it.
Thatcher was the motivation for my entire political career. I hated everything she stood for.
I’d go to the library so I could sit in a big, quiet room and listen to pages being turned. There was a boring librarian who everyone in fifth grade hated. But I loved her because when she would read us stories in her soft voice, she’d turn my head into a snow globe.
I was creating characters early. People didn’t beat me up. I scared them. I hated authority. I could also get people to do things; I was quite the early director. I could make people laugh enough to get their defences down – and then brainwash them.
Dominicans, Nicaraguans, and even the already highly skilled Cubans greatly improved their baseball skills when occupied by U.S. troops. The only acceptable resistance to a hated American presence was to try to beat them in baseball games.
I was being hated for about 40 or 50 years by the whole world, but it did not destroy me, and it did not ruin my health. And the reason is because I just did not answer them. I had my own life.
Typically, people think, ‘Oh the hippies and the punks hated each other,’ or that those things don’t go together musically. Sometimes that is true, but we had equal parts of both in our musical DNA.
I modeled for a little while in college. I was desperate to travel, and I got scouted, and they wanted me to go to Paris and London for six months. And I discovered that I hated it. I didn’t like the expectation to be pretty all the time.
Life has taught me that it is not for our faults that we are disliked and even hated, but for our qualities.
Whenever a hater said they hated something about Miranda, I’d do it more.
Dad worked in the same shop, behind the same counter, five or six days a week, for 38 years, and hated it.
People used what they called a telephone because they hated being close together and they were scared of being alone.
Take from a man his reputation for probity, and the more shrewd and clever he is, the more hated and mistrusted he becomes.
I got Cs in English at school. I hated it. But now I want to be a writer and I’m voracious for new vocabulary and new ideas.
It used to bother me – having bigger, fuller brows. I even plucked them once so I’d fit in, but I hated them and couldn’t wait for them to grow back. Now I embrace them. I realized the quirky things that make you different are what make you beautiful.
Figo was my hero. Then he joined Madrid. Barca fans hated him for that. It was impossible for him to be a hero any more, but now that I’m a professional, I see things differently.
Orwell was the sort of man who was full of grievances. He was very loyal. Once he got to know you, he was extremely loyal. He hated passionately and irrationally.
