Hm.. maybe a good ice breaker but a bit negative isn't it? Why spend energy on somethin you don't like ?
Because people are opinionated. It's a fun way to hear someone speak passionately about something. Gives you a sense of who they are.
But people are just as passionate, or hopefully even more so, of things that they enjoy. Why go into negativity when you could be listening to their positive passions?
It's pretty common to bond over dislikes. Besides, disliking something isn't negative, and there's nothing wrong with being negative even if it were.
