Surprising from a user named stinky. I guess you're more the type who don't frown when you go down to brown town.

Smokers. They have decades of being able to strike up an angry conversation in a street with an absolute stranger, whilst never letting it escalate, because, fuckit, brotherhood of smokers.
Plus a healthy appreciation of nature. Sure you can smoke and look at your phone, but you still have to be outside and that means glancing up from time to time to look at the scenery, the night sky, to wave at your neighbours, etc.
Good people smokers, filthy habit.
(Vapers dont count, cos you can't really share a vape concurrently. Also a lot of them take pride in their devices which I find weird. Real smokers have a decent sense of self-hatred at their habit)
Not sure what kind of smokers you meet. The ones I have to deal with blow cancer in my face right next to children, get aggressive when I ask them not to, spit on the floor every 5s, throw their still lit cigs into trash bins or into nature and cant stop coughing on the train.
yeah and I have to say even nice smokers seem to have no issue with flicking their but when they are done. Anytime I see a smoker hold onto their but when there is not some sort of enforcement I am like. That person is the rare saint.
Those are just assholes who happen to smoke
There's some in every crowd.
Ah yep, my people. The good ones can cast an indignant parent/kid-free zone up to 15m away. Solitary creatures by nature, they hunt in packs, and if you manage to friend one, you friend them for life.
Fuck yeah, I miss it. Smokers are my people. Risk takers, nihilists, indulgers, hedonists, adventurers, rebels, fun-havers… but I’ve gotten domesticated and want to live a long and clean life. Sigh.
Burn, Burn, Burn by Ronnie Elliott is now stuck in my head.
Same, but it's not really living is it
Clement Freud said “You don’t live longer, it only seems longer.”
It is and it isn’t. My current goals and priorities require as long of a horizon to accomplish them and as much focus as possible. Or do they? if I got back into the risky overdrive mode and accelerated full speed and full joy all at once…
Old school vapers at least, ones that still roll their own coils and rewick their rebuildable atomizers, would almost always have a device that they have customized themselves, or gotten a very beautiful custom mod.
Also vaping is a bit different in that you could vape using a device akin to smoking, or you could be vaping up a storm cloud like a shisha or bing would, or anything in between.
It's a personal thing. At least in the opinion if this vaper.
Oh yeah the vaping crowd is definitely creative, but they don't share with strangers cos they physically can't

Eggs. Never much liked eggs outside of scrambled or omelets and I only really tolerate those but I know pretty much everyone else likes them so 🤷
Meat-eating and political apathy. Few people are vegetarians at this point in history, and activism tends to attract defective personalities.
If it sounds like I must be a misanthropic bastard that hates everyone, unfortunately, yeah, I think I do at this point.
My wife is a huge Rush fan. I've been to two concerts, I don't get it. It's loud, it's screechy, I can't understand the lyrics, but they're her favorite band.
Bought her the "Rush 50" set for our anniversary next month:

She tolerates my taste:

I went to a concert with a mega fan and also don’t get it, that shit hurt my ears. I think Rush fans brains are all wired at some unique frequency.

Marijuana Aficionados. I've been straight edge my entire life but always hung out with them. Now, it is more common since legal restrictions have been lifted. The community in general is well, chill.
My dad gave me advice a hundred years ago, and it's probably a George Carlin bit or something, but there's a difference in philosophy between drunks and stoners. A drunk will pound a beer, or sip from a personal flask, or bring their own six pack to a party. A stoner's first impulse is to light a joint and find someone to pass it off to. It's communal, and it brings others into the circle, where alcohol is isolating. Obviously it's a generalization, but it sort of fits.
That sounds like Carlin, but Carlin dispensed much wisdom in his time.
My favorite story from Jack Marigold's A Child's Garden of Grass goes something like:
A drunk, an acidhead, and a pothead are walking through the woods. As it becomes evening, they come to a city surrounded by a wall, and in the wall is a closed door with a sign that reads: "This door is only open 9-5". After knocking and getting no answer for a few minutes, the drunk shakes his fist and says, 'let's smash the door down!" The acidhead peers at the doorknob for a few minutes and says, "let's just float through the keyhole." The pothead shakes his head and says, "naw, man; let's just sit here and wait for it to open in the morning."
I can't handle pot; makes me super nauseous for the entire time I'm high. Always has. But I love the people.
Alcohol makes you act without thinking, pot makes you think without action.

As a big pot head I think this is the big point. If you see someone smoking, there's a damn good chance they'll let you take a smoke. But you gotta be careful, cause then you're gonna be stuck into a 30 minute convo about nothing haha
I didn't say "perfect chance" because one time I was in German outside a club and smelled someone smoking a joint so I mimed the smoking gesture and he called me a selfish American and then they all laughed at me haha. But then later that night they called me over to do a couple shots with them so ¯\(ツ)/¯
I agree. I used the term 'marijuana aficionado' because I hang out with those who exclusively smoke bud straight up from the dispensary. I don't get involved with other types of users.

Punk/Emo Style
Phish
I don't like it and I don't necessarily have to like the people either who also happens to like that thing. It is a possibility. Just don't go around trying to find these people with the excuse of upsetting what they enjoy. Enjoy what you enjoy, shut up and go back to your damn corner.
Anyways, mine happens to be EDM. I don't mind it, I always just held the opinion that it is way too same-y. There's thousands of remixes of this song and that song and they maybe change the tone, the tune or add a few more sounds. But more or less, it is just same-y. I know lots of people feel and love this kind of genre, I just only like it but I am not really losing my mind to it whenever I hear a few tracks.
