No, not weird, perfectly normal.  Axiem is the weird one here. :)

Even most people who *like* coffee admit that it's an acquired taste, but most
have always liked the aroma.  Personally, I'm in the "like the smell, not the
taste" camp, too.

Now, *good* coffee made properly from good beans so that it's not bitter -
well, still tastes pretty bad to me, actually, but is potable with enough
cream and sugar. :)
