Any reality or dating shows. Bachelor/ette, golden whatever, love island, Real housewives of some s****y place, I don't give a s**t about any of them. I don't enjoy watching trashy people yell at each other or try to hook up. Competitive reality shows like Crime Scene kitchen, great British bake off, Amazing Race are exceptions.

Oh and I f*****g hate Survivor and Big Brother.

I saw a bunch of people say Stanley cups and I being not with it thought they meant the Hockey championship. So then I had to ask myself if the hockey finals were happening or something. Then I realized clearly my zero interest thing is Stanley cups because that took me too long to figure out.

Influencers. I can't stand them. If you've got a channel where you make content that's original and would be worthwhile on other platforms (e.g., comedy, storytelling, cooking episodes, etc.), then yeah. If I see a post or video recommended by someone who clearly has no talent and is a means to advertise with a pretty face, I actively try to not use the product LOL.

Botox

DramaticBucket: My colleague gets botox in 4 different parts of his face apparently and told me I need to start preventative botox before I hit thirty so I won't get wrinkles. I thought it was a him thing but turns out half of my coworkers under 45 are getting it? Why are people suddenly so afraid of looking slightly older? You're going to age anyway! My dad says looking older is the best thing about aging because random people will help you if you're confused instead of giving you the side eye.

All this hugely overhyped "Generative AI" garbage. Like to the point that adding "AI" to the name of your product is pretty much a one way ticket to "I don't care about anything else you're about to say".

Of note, that's specifically "Generative AI", I'm all for the stuff that actually makes life better. It's sad that at this point most people don't even realize there's a difference. That's pure dystopia in a nutshell.

Mental health. Hear me out

I think there are lots of companies trying to sell you the idea that you're damaged. You need therapy, you need calming candles, you need to self-care to the extreme. Yes we should all take care of our mental health, but I have no interest in companies trying to convince me that I'm a delicate flower that needs to spend my way to wellbeing.

Lash extensions. I’m old enough to remember all the older women wearing false lashes when I was a child, so to me they feel like something older women do. Not that they can’t look nice, I just don’t understand the heavy, obviously fake lashes look. I felt the same way a few years ago when the top bun was a trend. My elementary school librarian wore her grey hair in a top bun with her reading glasses with chains on them, so to me it was a look for older women.

I wonder if this is because the player is yelling screaming like a deranged monkey. Yelling so loud it distorts the sound at the smallest thing that happens. It almost has to be the commentary.

Because watching someone twiddle their thumbs is nowhere near as exciting as someone performing a triple backflip or another person hitting the Grand slam. And if you don't know the difference I have no words.

Watching the twiddling thumbs is just as exciting as watching the spectators' faces in a sports match. It's only fun for a very special interest group. In sports you mostly watch the field, in video games you mostly watch the screen. It's like a live show. 🤷 (The fascination with watching people kicking, throwing or batting balls for hours at a time eludes me, though I do like watching solo performers like the occasional gymnast or Ninja Warrior. I'm none too excited about who wins the competition, I just like watching)

Meyrin HAHAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂 Have you seen any cost of video games in the last 15 years, not to mention a decent gaming computer (if you do PC gaming)? That doesn't even begin to touch the hours you have to put in gaming to build up not only a reasonable skill but also the fan base to monetize your stream.

"Things that a popular right now". Dear OP, Let's Plays have been around for decades (one of the earliest videos was ProtonJon's attempt at Kaizo Mario, search for it on Youtube, it's still there and hilarious). It's really just like watching sports - and a wonderful way to still experience a video game, even if you don't have the console/PC to play it yourself.

I'll check out how someone got a gold or platinum on peak 3's Kick Doubt in SSX 3, cos that is hard as fudge. But I don't feel like watching someone just playing a game while raging at other online players, as if that person is playing any better. Which they are often not. Plus, there's a way I like to get in the groove when I'm playing. I like to explore, see where I can go, check out the short cuts, collect bonus stuff. I've watched players skip potentially interesting parts of an open world. It's frustrating. If you can comment online, most times your comment is ignored or buried in the masses.

I've played video games since I was a kid in the 80s and I've been watching other people play for just as long. It used to be watching friends play while you waited for your turn. But now I watch twitch streamers play. Granted, I watch goofy streamers who aren't taking it that seriously. But it's fun.
