People counting up whilst timing me,
People asking for a go,
People asking for me to explain it - Do you really want me to go through it?

Like: Cubes.
2nd degree burns giving me an excuse not to go to school.
Really weird colour scheme.

Like:
Square-1
5x5
OLL skips
Sub-19 solves (19.54 just ain't cuttin it for me anymore...)
Effortless F2L where everything is paired up for me
Blindfolded solving
V perm, J(b)

Dislike:
Effing Square-1 pieces falling out when a piece is missing (my fault, but still)
4x4 parity, and just the cube itself.
Tiled QJ's flimsy corners and heavy build
My Rubik's storebought with the orange stickers peeled off and horrible jamming
The idea of a 6x6 or 2x2
Z-Perm on big cubes
 
Like:
- R, U, T perms
- 2x2
- Pyraminx
- Pineapple

Dislike:
- Cubers on Youtube that sound like they won't hit puberty for another 3 years
- Nails getting caught under Cubesmith tiles
- My ES 4x4 that I thought would be better with lube
- Black stickers on white cubes
- Avacado

Intuitive methods, even if I'm not good at them
Heavy cubes
The way that sq1 seems to not need lubing but once a year
People that treat newbies in a positive way
People that do basic editing that makes videos easier to watch
Stores that send you more than you ordered, just to be nice

Neutral:
Methods I don't know
M/E/S turns
People not putting stickers on one face of the cube, just using the color of the plastic instead

Dislikes:
Algorithm heavy methods
The way the above seems to always be faster
The way M/E/S counts as two turns usually
when people say "I just peel off the stickers"
 
Likes/often used:
