Hey Pandas, What Is One Modern Trend That You Just Can’t Get Behind? (Closed)
We are consistently coming up with new innovations that are meant to make life easier. But is there anything that just irks you? Something that sounds good but it's just a hassle. This is a judgment-free zone, if there is any hint of malice I'll take this post down.

I'll go first, sensor toilets. The ones where you have to wave in front of the beam in order to flush the toilet. But then it breaks. I have once spent 10 minutes in a bathroom, trying to get the sensor to work.

when has cancel culture ever failed us? sure they can be annoying about it, but it really is a good move. cancel culture ahs changed society for the better. think about what theyre cancelling. and free speech is encouraged do you see the diversity now?

Influencers. Now, I have no problem with people expressing their views online (take this post, for instance), but people somehow getting paid for trying to tell everyone what to wear/buy/think really needs to stop. These folks need to get real jobs...

It's a fun concept. Enjoyable for kids, they get paid for being admired and wanted, just as everyone else, but for kids.

It's really interesting to me. I'm a millennial and all of our slangs, grammar, etc. were seen as stupid, ungrammatical. Words like "wtf, lol" even emojis! ":), ;), :D, :3" but they pioneered a new language so to speak and it's interesting what new generations create! (It's also starting to p**s me off because I'm starting get that "GET OFF MY LAWN YOU WIPPER SNAPPERS" old age thing :)...

I just don't get the whole "let's wear shorts and shirts so short that we might as well just wear bikini swimsuits" thing... I mean people can do what they want but... how did that trend even start???

I mean, it's their choice (which is the point of feminism, women can CHOOSE to do what they want), but I don't get it

May I ask, what type of plastic surgery? There's the typical "beauty-enhancing" plastic surgery but also gender affirming plastic surgery?

Canceling people for disagreeing with them, for example if someone doesn’t support the lgbtq, people will hate them.

It is fine to say you don't agree with us as long as you still respect us.
