It may help if you try to sound like you almost liked it, but don't. "It's not really my thing," "Tried it, but I just don't love it," and "it just never really worked for me" are examples. Explaining that you feel like you have given it all the chance it needs, and ultimately decided it's not for you. You're not trying to emphasize negativity, just a lack of positivity, if that makes sense. This helps avoid implied criticism of someone else's tastes while conveying your preference.

    The difference is that in going to the past you have some idea of how things played out and what changes might matter. The changes that come up in time travel discussions are things like "kill this person before they do anything" or "let this guy into art school" or "cancel this one particular flight." By the time the real consequences of possible small changes are known, you need more than small changes to acheve your objective.
