Do besides/apart from/aside from/except/except for have the same meaning? you can use any of them but it may have different meanigns according to the sentences. 1.We have a lot in common except/except for/besides/apart from/ aside from watching football games. ---which means the speaker doesnt like watching football games while the other guy likes. 2. we Don't have a lot in common except/except for/besides/apart from/ aside from watching football games. ----which means that both the speaker and the other guy like watching football games. Am I right?the differnece of meanings depends on if it is a negative form or a positive form at the beginning. Thank you!

Aside from some very small subtleties, they can all be used interchangeably. Some people use certain ones like "aside from" to sound more professional. The only one that might be just slightly more casual would be simply saying "except", but I have seen it in professional writing as well. Hope this helps :)
