I was watching the big bang theory, stick with me, and one of the characters said that she doesn't like music, like any music at all.
Does anyone know someone like this?

I know people who could care less about it one way or the other.
My boss, who's around my age, has become interested in music the last few years, but told me he didn't really care about it when younger.
His favorite artist is Huey Lewis. I've been tempted to make a joke about it, but to each his own.

Quentin Crisp claimed to not like music, but I suspect he was exaggerating.
Elsewhere he clarified that when he was young, if one wanted to hear music one had to go to where it was being played, but nowadays it's inescapable. I have some sympathy for that viewpoint.

I have a lot of sympathy for that viewpoint. I mean, as someone who is generally listening to some music as long as I'm awake, I often wonder if one of the reasons I don't have particularly mainstream tastes is that I like to be able to approach music on my terms. I don't want to encounter music forced on me in different contexts. I mean, I'd love to know what I'd feel about a lot of classical music, if I hadn't first encountered it piped through shopping centres or advertising aftershave.

I'd argue that anyone who ever posted more than once in Prog Corner on BCB doesn't like music.

I worked with someone once who told me she never listened to music after her divorce. She just couldn't bring herself to.
I've not been to a gig since my husband died. I'm not sure I can bring myself to.
I've had a couple of jobs where I could play my own cds - unusual for office jobs. But I've also worked in offices where they've had the radio on. Heart-the-fuck-FM. Hell is being unable to escape other people's shite music.

I knew a girl who didn't like music, but then again she was deaf. Didn't say much but she was fun to make out with!

My wife is completely indifferent to music. She doesn't dislike it, but she doesn't really like it. When she has the radio in the car, she plays whatever my daughter wants to hear.
The Replacements hated music - it had too many notes.

.......... hated music - it had too many notes. A good description for the birth of punk too.

When I was in the dating industry I remember seeing a young woman's profile where she said in a list of things she really didn't like
"Guys who do podcasts, talk about and are really into music"
She was the number 1 profile on the site at the time.
