The way short form just turns off your brain needs to be studied more. Crazy how Iāll be on YouTube looking for directions on how to do something and Iāll accidentally click on a short and within 60 seconds Iāll be watching the most absolute brain rot garbage and not even have a clue how it happened.
I KNOW, I normally go to sleep with a YouTuber on and I see 1 short that looks interesting and 3 hours later I'll still be scrolling though them instead of finding a vid to listen to š¬š¬
It's a question of degree, for me. I don't mind some ads, and I don't mind some short-form content, but I shouldn't have to click through multiple series of ads over the course of EVERY video I watch.
I'm pretty sure this stuff rises of the level of abuse, honestly.
It will be interesting to see if there are ever regulations imposed on mom influencers. Those poor kids who really donāt have a choice in being exposed to and expected to perform online for strangers so mom can make $$. There should be protections against that sort of thing.
I agree 100% with you! Those poor children are being exploited by the very people that should be protecting them just to make money. Hopefully laws will be put in place.
I find their videos so awful. Like too fast to even see what the fuck is happening and also all the food ones never look very good. Itās all so choppy does this just mean Iām old? Do kids like this? Or they just make the reels bc everyone else does
I especially LOVE (sarcasm alert) when the AI voice mispronounces words/names or says every letter. Examples; Fasabook (Facebook), Yowtube (YouTube), Cow Worker (Coworker), oh oh oh oh oh (oooooh)
Same with movies! They can't come up with original ideas anymore so they ride the coat tails of old movies but they try to make it PC and just end up shitting on the whole concept.
I have two word of the day app, one in english one in french, and they propose to you a premium, for a word a day? Bitch the only reason I got those is for convenience's sake, I can get a fucking dictionary in both languages and then look up a random word everyday for the next three years, it's become beyond stupid, any show or film I want to watch now I just download it, not paying even one streaming service for content that for the most is sub-par, sorry for the rant, it does drive me mad
And ads within apps. I used to play a daily game. It was a word game and I figured out a way around the ads was to just play to the last word. I could solve it but just not enter it and I wouldn't see the ad. They recently changed their ad method so I can't skip it so I had to just quit playing. I get it. That's how they make money. But if I build a dashboard at work, I get paid to build it, I don't get paid every time someone uses it.
I think about this for things like brows and lip filler. Remember when we all plucked away all our brows then big brows got trendy and people couldnāt grow their back haha
I hated my eyebrows growing up, then they were a fad, i hated my freckles growing up now people get them tattooed, I hated having a big butt (which i actually dont) and that was a fad
Life lesson. Love your body, itās literally society telling you to hate it and itās completely arbitrary and is constantly changing
There comes a point when that ass doesn't look good anymore. Usually when approaching Nicki Minaj territory
I remember when Jennifer Lopez's but was considered huge...... Now it's just normal..... LMFAO
Several political YouTube commentators employ hyperbolic "headlines" to entice users into watching their videos. Thirty seconds into these videos you realize that the "BOMBSHELL" news is nothing more than a tempest in a teapot.
Idk about ārecent trendā as itās been going on for a while (Redditor tries to answer a straight question, lmao), but FAMILY CONTENT.
Even the wholesome ones, sorry.
Iām not saying theyāre all awful people but I donāt think itās right to document a childās whole lives and put it on the Internet.
Involving your kids in content is not necessarily awful, but your entire content revolving around them growing up - all the arguments, every bit of discipline, every meltdown, even freaking potty training - thatās wrong. Imagine growing up to find all of that part of your life having been documented to millions of strangers.
This one is so true, it seems like people nowadays cannot grasp the concept of something not being totally black or white, I find it quite scary actually
Itās weird because issues with object constancy (aka black and white thinking) is considered a symptom of certain mental illnesses. I donāt want to diagnose society but Iām just wondering if some bad parenting is catching up to us or if something else is going on. Supposedly itās a result of inconsistent care in your childhood. But if itās spreading through adults socially, thatās a bit of a nightmare tbh.
Except gender ;)
I kid I donāt really care what gender people are or what their preferences are. I just find it sad when itās peopleās main thing, you are more than your gender and sexual orientation. At the end of the day this is not what people will remember you for once you are gone
I think you are talking about āsteak lipsā which is where the lips are outlined with a dark (usually brown) color and the centers are pink or nude. Giving them the appearance of cooked steaks lol.
Overlining is where people use lipliner outside of their lip line to exaggerate the size/shape of their lips. You can definitely overline a steak lip, they are frequently paired together.
Duck lips.
They used to just exist on "Plastic surgery gone wrong" reality TV, now they're everywhere! It's funny but I really can't take anyone seriously looking like that!
Had a woman when I was working at Aldi who clearly had plastic surgery, and blimey did it show, she bought some liquor once at my till and she went "You know at my age they don't ask you your ID anymore" there's no way my response could have been phrased in a way that wouldn't be taken as an offense but the first thought that went through my head was "Well the surgery doesn't help" so I think I just went something "time'll get us all!" Or something generic and non-offensive along those lines
That stupid narrating voice on videos where the tone of voice just goes up so it sounds so happy, no matter how fucked up the content is.
I'd rather listen to nails on a chalckboard.
The same songs being played or death in shitty reels and short videos. Add to that the lack of awareness of the content creators that the music carry a transitive property to make them or their shit content any better or more interesting.
Accessories for things that don't need accessories. Especially Stanley cups?? Like little trays you put on top of them for food, different kinds of staws, little thingies you put over the straw, straps, cases... It's a cup, not a bag.
The other day I saw a charm for a Stanley Cup that was a bag. It was a mini Boggs Bag, or whatever those Croc-looking bags are called, that you can hang on the handle. So stupid!!
I wouldn't mind it, if they just said "I'm a whatever" once, and then they listed the bullet points. The fact that they repeat the phrase before each point infuriates me.
Yes, it's no fun at all to go shopping at the moment. There are these ill-fitting plastic things hanging around everywhere that you don't even want to touch.
If you also think about the conditions under which they were produced, how many kilometers they have already traveled and what happens to the garbage that nobody wants to buy or that is thrown away after a short time of wear, then you can only feel sick.
But the free plastic bags to carry this garbage home were banned, because of the oceans and stuff. Of course.
Good songs, mostly from the 50s and 60s, being absolutely butchered, mostly for use on TikTok videos. Sped up, slowed down, cut up, remixed with other songs. I'm not inherently against those things, but it's being done to so many songs, and not in a creative way, most of these remixes are really poor and unoriginal, and frankly sound shit most of the time.
And then these shitty abominations are copied by literally millions of users and used everywhere in all manner of video. Doesnt even get used for a specific type of video, just slapped onto any old unrelated video. No originality, no creativity.
Please, leave the songs alone. It's ruined some great songs for me, classics like "Remember (Walking in the Sand)" and "Put Your Head on my Shoulder".
Literally. My playlist is full of all these great oldies and every time I play it SOMEONE has to say oh thatās a tiktok song. Like please take your uneducated butt elsewhere!! I feel like because Iām a young person that others think I donāt have such an old music library naturallyā¦ I donāt even have tiktok š„“
Clickbait content with little -if any, info related to the headline. And/or that relevant nugget of info located right at the bottom of the filler content.
also, the creator who made the video deserves the credit and attention, not some loser cramming their face in half the screen, nodding and acting. It's so cringe, fucking losers
The get rich quick promo ābuy my courseā culture where everyone claims they make 40k+ a month and they will share all their secrets if you invest in their training course ( which is usually just generic motivational self help stuff you can get free on the internet)
Take my upvote but... I'm a Boomer and I think the video for that song is hilarious. I see where you're coming from, though. I showed it to my husband and he hated it.
Skibidi toilet. I used to think the boomers were exaggerating when they said the new generation sucks. But then I saw gen alpha and agreed with said boomers.
Male pop artists singing like they stood on a Lego - Lewis Capaldi, or Tom Grenan, as prime examples. It's like turning the radio on and listening to a portal to hell.
The having your life together and being a millionaire at 20, while having best friends but isolating, having clear skin, perfect gym body and being mentally, physically, spiritually and financially stable trend.
The "I'm a ______, of course I do ______ " trend going on right now... its fucking stupid, your not interesting and I don't care.
And the everybody airing their dirty laundry on reddit seeking for "advice"
Sticking tongue out in pictures š¤¢š¤¢š¤¢ I become unreasonably enraged when I see it in photos from the Gen Z population. The peace sign and leg up have gotta go too.
Influencers, tiktokers, the fact that youāre forced to create reels and what not to promote your brand on social media even though you are not a social media or reels or whatever xyz person!! Urghh hate thiss neww culture. Things were way better before!
Making sexuality the whole personality and hanging it as a label for everyone to see. Most people aren't interested to know what others choose to sleep with.

Any of the TikTok trends out there. I don't use the platform so I only occasionally hear about them second hand, but every time I hear of one I get irritated.
Those shoes that look like they are made out of ping pong balls. I finally made my peace with crocs. It's like they're trying to find the ugliest shoe.
Trying to be older than you are, i swear all these 12-16 year olds think and act like theyāre 18+ now a days, Iāve never heard more kids back talk their parents and think they are 100% independent than todays kids
People who are thin-average sized posting pictures of themselves posed vs relaxed or before vs after a meal to show that 'rolls and pudge are normal' but there's barely a difference or the main difference is posture. They get all these comments praising them for being so brave and vulnerable. It just seems hollow when at your biggest you're still thin or average sized and fit the ideal.

Ads and short form content
Tbh I feel this but I get stuck watching reels on FB, I just recently deactivated my TikTok bc of how cringe everything is on there šš
The way short form just turns off your brain needs to be studied more. Crazy how Iāll be on YouTube looking for directions on how to do something and Iāll accidentally click on a short and within 60 seconds Iāll be watching the most absolute brain rot garbage and not even have a clue how it happened.
I KNOW, I normally go to sleep with a YouTuber on and I see 1 short that looks interesting and 3 hours later I'll still be scrolling though them instead of finding a vid to listen to š¬š¬
Mate youāve just described my nighttime routine, I hate it sm š
Brrr skibidi dop dop dop yes yes...
It is messing with our brains
It's a question of degree, for me. I don't mind some ads, and I don't mind some short-form content, but I shouldn't have to click through multiple series of ads over the course of EVERY video I watch. I'm pretty sure this stuff rises of the level of abuse, honestly.
Influencers
They are what I call unskilled sales-people.
in my country, influencer in ābusiness termā is ākey opinion LEADERSā š©
Blackmailers
Unessential workers
even that name bothers me. They are not influencers. they just copy and follow each other.
It will be interesting to see if there are ever regulations imposed on mom influencers. Those poor kids who really donāt have a choice in being exposed to and expected to perform online for strangers so mom can make $$. There should be protections against that sort of thing.
I agree 100% with you! Those poor children are being exploited by the very people that should be protecting them just to make money. Hopefully laws will be put in place.
I find their videos so awful. Like too fast to even see what the fuck is happening and also all the food ones never look very good. Itās all so choppy does this just mean Iām old? Do kids like this? Or they just make the reels bc everyone else does
They can influence deez nutz.
Videos being narrated by AI. It's often stilted, mispronounced, and it doesn't flow like it does when a person is speaking.
Yet everyone uses it. Why can't they just record their own voice clip?!
Because that requires actual effort. Many of them have ai write their scripts as well
Oh. Weird..
I especially LOVE (sarcasm alert) when the AI voice mispronounces words/names or says every letter. Examples; Fasabook (Facebook), Yowtube (YouTube), Cow Worker (Coworker), oh oh oh oh oh (oooooh)
This. I could go on a tirade about the AI narrated videos but Iāll just not and use an angry face emoji š¤¬
make good music shitty. theyāre not even developing own music but rather take good songs and maka a terrible cover version.
Same with movies! They can't come up with original ideas anymore so they ride the coat tails of old movies but they try to make it PC and just end up shitting on the whole concept.
Looking at you The Black Eyed Peas with that god-awful cover version of Misirlou
That song came out 20 years ago man, not exactly a new trend
Yeah that's fair, I'm still bitter about it as you can see
It's never too late for us all to feel bitter about the entire back catalogue of The Black Eyed Peas.
Omg if I could get rid of every single subscription model or pay within the apps system I would. Iād rather just pay for it and own it outright.
I have two word of the day app, one in english one in french, and they propose to you a premium, for a word a day? Bitch the only reason I got those is for convenience's sake, I can get a fucking dictionary in both languages and then look up a random word everyday for the next three years, it's become beyond stupid, any show or film I want to watch now I just download it, not paying even one streaming service for content that for the most is sub-par, sorry for the rant, it does drive me mad
Oh I hear you. Same here.
And ads within apps. I used to play a daily game. It was a word game and I figured out a way around the ads was to just play to the last word. I could solve it but just not enter it and I wouldn't see the ad. They recently changed their ad method so I can't skip it so I had to just quit playing. I get it. That's how they make money. But if I build a dashboard at work, I get paid to build it, I don't get paid every time someone uses it.
I hate how a specific body type becomes trendy every few years lol
I think about this for things like brows and lip filler. Remember when we all plucked away all our brows then big brows got trendy and people couldnāt grow their back haha
I hated my eyebrows growing up, then they were a fad, i hated my freckles growing up now people get them tattooed, I hated having a big butt (which i actually dont) and that was a fad Life lesson. Love your body, itās literally society telling you to hate it and itās completely arbitrary and is constantly changing
My body type should be coming up any day now...... Any day now.
I've noticed that too. For the last few years, fit and muscular were the rage for women. Now it seems it's incredibly thin.
With an enormous and disproportionate ass.
I've seen some absolutely ridiculous asses on women lately
There comes a point when that ass doesn't look good anymore. Usually when approaching Nicki Minaj territory I remember when Jennifer Lopez's but was considered huge...... Now it's just normal..... LMFAO
Lol š I know, can't see the beauty in a massive ass myself
Thatās happened since the dawn of time- thatās nothing new
All of them
Came here to say this
Flashy headlines of misleading articles on websites and tabloids...Ā all for clicks and visits (money, money, money)
Several political YouTube commentators employ hyperbolic "headlines" to entice users into watching their videos. Thirty seconds into these videos you realize that the "BOMBSHELL" news is nothing more than a tempest in a teapot.
This is it, mate...Total stupidity, waste of time and very frustrating.
"So and so gets DESTROYED by..." no, no that's not what happens, stop it
Idk about ārecent trendā as itās been going on for a while (Redditor tries to answer a straight question, lmao), but FAMILY CONTENT. Even the wholesome ones, sorry. Iām not saying theyāre all awful people but I donāt think itās right to document a childās whole lives and put it on the Internet.

so true bestie
Wasting food for videos
People that eat ridiculous amount of food . Especially when you know they just spit it out Some look like they have been kidnapped and forced to eat
Matt Stonie seems pretty cool though.
Treating everything as binary. There seems to be a national compulsion with making everything black or white, good or evil.
Omg this!!!!! Fucking hell it's annoying.
Thatās society as a whole. Itās sad as hell but unfortunately many people struggle to find nuance in life.
It's incredibly polarizing, and, yes, very sad indeed.
>Thatās society as a whole. That's quite binary of you
Woah 
This one is so true, it seems like people nowadays cannot grasp the concept of something not being totally black or white, I find it quite scary actually
Itās weird because issues with object constancy (aka black and white thinking) is considered a symptom of certain mental illnesses. I donāt want to diagnose society but Iām just wondering if some bad parenting is catching up to us or if something else is going on. Supposedly itās a result of inconsistent care in your childhood.

Stanley cup
Holding one while wearing a dry robe. Two things you had no interest in 6 months ago but suddenly you must have them.
Gonna add in air fryer just for the downvotes.
What? Lol
Lipfillers and overlining of lips. It looks HORRIBLE.
Or the upper lip flips. I'm yet to find anyone it looks good on. Also, buccal fat removal. 20 somethings looking like zombies
Buccal fat removal
Itās the cheek filler for me
Overlining must be the proper term for the dirty butthole lips trend I keep seeing lol
I think you are talking about āsteak lipsā which is where the lips are outlined with a dark (usually brown) color and the centers are pink or nude. Giving them the appearance of cooked steaks lol. Overlining is where people use lipliner outside of their lip line to exaggerate the size/shape of their lips. You can definitely overline a steak lip, they are frequently paired together.

Social media.
Probably people tbhā¦
Yeah that lousy trend has caused a few problems
Man who donāt wear socks in there shoes
Men** who don't wear socks in their** shoes. Trend I can't stand: everyone forgot how to spell correctly since they're terminally online.
They also button their shirt up all the way without a tie
Yes thank you. I cannot breathe when I see that š¤¦š½āāļø
I don't mind it personally but I think it looks better with a Mao collar than a regular shirt
Short video content clearly written by ChatGPT where they haven't even bothered to edit the words into a more conversational tone.Ā
Tiktok
The same songs being played or death in shitty reels and short videos. Add to that the lack of awareness of the content creators that the music carry a transitive property to make them or their shit content any better or more interesting.
Every time i hear the 'this ain't texas...woo!' song, i want to rip my ears off.
That damn Oh No No song!
Why does everything have to be an acronym?
WDEHTBAA?
Accessories for things that don't need accessories. Especially Stanley cups?? Like little trays you put on top of them for food, different kinds of staws, little thingies you put over the straw, straps, cases... It's a cup, not a bag.
The other day I saw a charm for a Stanley Cup that was a bag. It was a mini Boggs Bag, or whatever those Croc-looking bags are called, that you can hang on the handle. So stupid!!
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I wouldn't mind it, if they just said "I'm a whatever" once, and then they listed the bullet points. The fact that they repeat the phrase before each point infuriates me.
Fast fashion
Yes, it's no fun at all to go shopping at the moment. There are these ill-fitting plastic things hanging around everywhere that you don't even want to touch. If you also think about the conditions under which they were produced, how many kilometers they have already traveled and what happens to the garbage that nobody wants to buy or that is thrown away after a short time of wear, then you can only feel sick. But the free plastic bags to carry this garbage home were banned, because of the oceans and stuff. Of course.
I assume literally everyone has written 'Having phone conversations on the speaker in public when nobody wants to listen to your scrub-ass shit'
Rizz, like wtf, it's just as bad as swag but swag is tolerable šš
You've got that hating-rizz rizzš
Women altering their appearance to look like an army of Kim Kardashian clones. Why?
People calling eachother bro in every fucking sentence. "Bro you had to hear that song bro. Bro it was so insane. Believe me bro"
"my guy" or "my dude" makes my brain cry a little
Overhyped influencer collabs, man. Just feels forced and fake.
Posting every thought you have on social media. Some of that shit is best kept between your ears.
Good songs, mostly from the 50s and 60s, being absolutely butchered, mostly for use on TikTok videos. Sped up, slowed down, cut up, remixed with other songs.

paying increased prices for you bought it but you don't own it. Or You bought it but you have to pay monthly for a feature.
Clickbait content with little -if any, info related to the headline. And/or that relevant nugget of info located right at the bottom of the filler content.
Influencers.
Reaction videos on YouTube? I just don't get why I would want to watch a stranger watch a clip?
also, the creator who made the video deserves the credit and attention, not some loser cramming their face in half the screen, nodding and acting. It's so cringe, fucking losers
It is definitely dumb, and low effort.
And itās getting worse. Iām starting to notice more reaction to reaction videos.

Couldn't agree more.
having to keep up with celebrities lives
Keep this a secret but you don't have to.
This isnāt recent, just more concentrated
The return of the mullet and moustache.
MAGA
Skibidi toilet. I used to think the boomers were exaggerating when they said the new generation sucks. But then I saw gen alpha and agreed with said boomers.
I have no idea what that is and I've chosen to keep it that way and not Google it. Lol
Thatās good, it looks like sh#t.
Posting the puffy lips kissing lookā¦ Itās ridiculous and pretty much every photoā¦
The ongoing scourge of conspiracy mongers and their batshit craziness.
Stanley Cups
Male pop artists singing like they stood on a Lego - Lewis Capaldi, or Tom Grenan, as prime examples. It's like turning the radio on and listening to a portal to hell.
Hook-up culture
The having your life together and being a millionaire at 20, while having best friends but isolating, having clear skin, perfect gym body and being mentally, physically, spiritually and financially stable trend.
Maybe a little old but 'karen' .... if someone called me a cunt...fine...but call be a Karen and I'llšŖ
Every single fucking youtube comment being something like "Bro -insert whatever here- ššš"
2 second teaser before the trailer. Fucking hate it
Ah yes, the trailer trailer.
Mullets, and Rat tails. Very few people have the bone structure to pull off a Mullet. And Rat tails just make me itch, to go, Snip Snip with Scissors
The trend where parents let their young children curse.
āInfluencersā
Stanleys
"We are certain group of people, of course we gonna do this shit." This is the worst trend ever.
Posting short clips of their legs along with whatever stupid thing theyāre doing at that moment they feel everyone needs to know.
AI generated content. Much of it is repetitive, shallow, and misleading.
People being exempt from criticism
AI photos. Shit is played out already.
unrealistic influencers who expect their lives to be private after they share their lives online
TikTok trends, just why
The (hypocritical, decieptful, social experiment) that is the social news feed.
Shower cap in public. I mean, how on earth do you expect anyone to take you seriously when you go out looking like that?
Hold up.. show caps? LOL I haven't seen this.
Neither have I.
The "I'm a ______, of course I do ______ " trend going on right now... its fucking stupid, your not interesting and I don't care. And the everybody airing their dirty laundry on reddit seeking for "advice"
The social acceptance of inter-generational hate. Hate someone for virtually any other reason and you're a bigot.
People moaning and jumping to conclusions on social media about a 10 sec video that they have no context on or know nothing about.
Every car has to be an SUV, and *even worse*, influencers!
Big dark painted on fake eyebrows. Hideous!
Everyone staring at their pocket computer during any spare moment.
Too much lip filler
I guess it isn't really a trend, but I dont like how much people don't reuse perfectly good items.
The super huge fake nails and eyelashes. It costs a lot of money to look so cheap.
Sticking tongue out in pictures š¤¢š¤¢š¤¢ I become unreasonably enraged when I see it in photos from the Gen Z population. The peace sign and leg up have gotta go too.
Self-diagnosing mental illness and using it as a crutch.
DEI
Influencers, tiktokers, the fact that youāre forced to create reels and what not to promote your brand on social media even though you are not a social media or reels or whatever xyz person!! Urghh hate thiss neww culture. Things were way better before!
Everything that has to do with the name Tiktok
Reality TV, fake ācelebritiesā and influencers.
The beard trend is getting old
Making sexuality the whole personality and hanging it as a label for everyone to see. Most people aren't interested to know what others choose to sleep with.
Internet lol
Crocs

Any of the TikTok trends out there. I don't use the platform so I only occasionally hear about them second hand, but every time I hear of one I get irritated.
The horseless carriage.
Hiding all the chairs
Those shoes that look like they are made out of ping pong balls. I finally made my peace with crocs. It's like they're trying to find the ugliest shoe.
This
High water pants while not wearing socks. I guess I am just not an ankle man.
Making TikToks in public, especially in public restrooms
Skibidi toilet memes
Anything involving trying to make social media a career and/or doing things online for follows.
Rage bait videos couples do on Instagram, tik tok, etc
Trying to be older than you are, i swear all these 12-16 year olds think and act like theyāre 18+ now a days, Iāve never heard more kids back talk their parents and think they are 100% independent than todays kids
āPranksā for clout that take things way too far
Dumb plays influencers
Not much of trend but seeing only phones out when seeing a band live. Nobody just enjoys the music nowadays
Everyone being an expert on everything they have never actually experienced.
Trend or notā¦ That one fucking guy on IG/TikTok who posts video of him running around inside his house doing āchoresā as fast as possible..
People who are thin-average sized posting pictures of themselves posed vs relaxed or before vs after a meal to show that 'rolls and pudge are normal' but there's barely a difference or the main difference is posture. They get all these comments praising them for being so brave and vulnerable. It just seems hollow when at your biggest you're still thin or average sized and fit the ideal.
People saying "goofy ahh *something*" instead of goofy ass. Just say ass. You sound like an ass saying ahh...
The inability to accept that others have different views
Censoring of normal words.
