Hive, here are 10 things I don't hate about you.

“But mostly I hate the way I don’t hate you. Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.” - Kat Stratford

This is one of my favourite quotes from one of my all-time favourite movies, "10 Things I Hate About You" and it's what immediately sprung to mind when I read this week's questions in the QC community.

What do you love about Hive?
What do you like about Hive?
What would you like to change about Hive?

Just like Julia Stiles' character (Kat) who was actually in love with Patrick (played by the late Heath Ledger) but found herself trying to say that in a totally backwards way, here I am attempting to do the same with Hive.

So instead of telling you the things I "love", "like" and "would like to change" about Hive the conventional way, please accept all these answers in Kat/Julia style (pun intended 😂).

I give you, 10 things I don't hate about you, Hive:

1. I don't hate that I get to write silly posts about all manner of things, on a really wide range of topics that interest me, that educate or entertain others or simply allow me to express myself and all my... uniqueness 😅

2. I don't hate that I am meeting people from all sorts of weird, wild and different countries around the world that I've never been to and I may never get to in my lifetime and that I get to learn from this really wide range of experiences and perspectives 😍

3. I don't hate that I'm learning new things every single day and that I never have a chance to get bored, ever 🙃

4. I don't hate that now have friends in countries where I've either been to visit them or figure I can go visit them in the months and years to come 😄

5. I don't hate that there are Hive Meetups happening in different parts of the world and that I can dream about one day getting to one or more of them and hugging some dear Hivers in real life 🤗

6. I don't hate that I'm learning bits of coding and picking up other, very unexpected skills on this ever-evolving platform 🤓

7. I don't hate #threads and tokens and all the other strange things that are popping up as we grow as a Hive collective and that I'd never heard of or thought of before joining this blockchain.

8. I don't hate that I can now use some jargon that will make sense to you and will totally leave my friends outside of Hive flabbergasted 🤣

9. I don't hate that I've grown immensely as a human being in the last 16 1/2 months and that I'm a lot more grateful for the life I have a result of reading about the lives of others 😌

10. And I definitely don't hate that I'm making money in all sorts of weird and wonderful ways online that never even occurred to me 18 months ago, and that I only see incredible potential from here.

So, there you have it: the most unconventional post I've probably ever written in all the days I've been on here 😁 If you found this post amusing or in any way helpful, if I made you smile or roll your eyes 😝 then give it an upvote and reply to me in the comments.
