“The Broom That Just Won’t Stay Still”: 40 Things People Started To Hate Over Time

ADVERTISEMENT

Many things tend to change over time, be it finding out that broccoli is actually not that bad or learning that crocheting can be fun even when you’re less than 70 years old. But even though time can change a person’s views on nearly everything, that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s changed for the more positive.

Redditor u/Boring-Advice7763 wanted to learn more about how time can affect people’s opinions on things they do and don’t like. They asked members of the ‘Ask Reddit’ community what it was that they started to dislike more and more the older they got, and redditors had plenty to share, covering everything from social media to loud noises, and much more. Scroll down to find their answers on the list below and see if you’ve started to dislike any of them yet yourself.

As someone who was raised by boomers, I will die on the hill that people have always had untreated mental issues; it’s just that they used to only flow down. These videos are stupid, but they don’t remotely compare to teachers hitting indigenous kids every time those kids spoke their own language. Or parents hitting their own kids, for that matter.

Every day, there's something new to be outraged about across pretty much all spectrums. Politics, sports figures, celebrities, even just general life things that people write articles about, or tweet about, or whatever.

Constant outrage to get clicks and eyeballs. Gotta get people all riled up and steaming mad. Just getting sick of it, day in and day out. I don't know if there's an actual term for it, but to me I'd call it outrage fatigue.

Yep. By the time you reach 65 pains appear for no reason at all. Body parts just stop working. You have to exercise twice as much just to stay in place somewhat. Stop exercising for two days and 100% of your muscle mass vanishes.

People. People are disgusting. In high school I had s**t on my car door in a grocery store parking lot. It was a 8 year old sedan, base model other than having an automatic trans and power windows. I cannot fathom what brought somebody to do this other than a mental illness.

As I have grown older, all I see are people that don’t care about anybody but themselves. I see trash getting thrown out of cars weekly, if not daily. Diapers on the ground in parking lots. Drivers getting mad I am only going 9 mph over the speed limit, just to have to slow down for a tunnel 1 mile away because everybody here is afraid of tunnels for some reason. Only reason I don’t go slower is because I am likely to get hit going the speed limit. Accidents daily, if you can call them that. I don’t consider somebody weaving between lines of traffic an accident. I consider them a moron who should get fined for reckless endangerment. I have had a new car I got (precovid, when you could actually afford one) get door dings and also somebody backed into it within a few months of owning it. I only ever parked at the back of lots or away from people, so this was 100% on purpose.

If the housing market wasn’t so bad right now, I would move to the country with 20+ acres of land and not be near anybody.

Sadly, with all that said. I know I am only seeing the lower 20% (or maybe even 2%) of the population. You don’t see the people doing the good things or people picking up somebody else’s trash. You only really pay attention to filth you see doing bad or stupid things.

Screaming kids playing and I'm talking about the high pitched shrieks that I cannot tell if it's fun or if someone is being killed. (entirely possible where I live). I used to try to check...now I contemplate recording it and filing a noise complaint. Again, to be clear, random multiple screams, sometimes all at once. Though I live in a city proper it is a nice quiet neighborhood and the home emitting the noise are nice good people. And this is happening after dark so I think it's reasonable to expect quiet. It's a neighborhood of very very small yards and there's a great football field size park a hundred yards away. My parents would have beat me silly.

I’m nearly 40.

What I dislike? How much all the old people around me complain about everything almost everyone who is old complains about.

I like parties, I like going out, I like people and I don’t like when plans get cancelled. I don’t care if you’re late, or early. I like new music. I like old music. I’ll hang out with 20 somethings and 60 somethings, if they’re just happy and not a buzzkill. Even a lot of teenagers have good ideas these days and seem better and smarter than when I was a kid…. Idk man, I feel like I’m getting happier as I age.

So I guess I’m starting to really dislike how much people my age complain.

Yeah, your body aches more & the energy isn't as great as it was but we still do 5am'ers and go to breakfast from the night before. Live, live, it's soon over. The big realisation at 56 is that i may only have another 25 summers if I'm lucky.

Politics. I used to give it so much attention and energy. But it never moved the dial in my life. Now, I just try to keep my head down and take care of my business as sustainably as possible and without hurting anyone. If at any point in my life I have more influence, I can start to give politics more attention. But not anytime soon.

This one is going to get so much hate, but dogs. When I was younger I loved dogs! Had between 2 and 4 until I moved out. When I moved out I got a cat. So easy so low maintenance. Still loved dogs. Then I got a kid. I would walk the neighborhood and every single dog would loose it's mind as I walked. Then I got a job where I go into people's houses. All day everyday I get barked at. I still pet dogs, I am still cordial with them but I no longer want to own a dog.

A writer here at Bored Panda, I am a lover of good music, good food, and good company, which makes food-related topics and feel-good stories my favorite ones to cover. Passionate about traveling and concerts, I constantly seek occasions to visit places yet personally unexplored. I also enjoy spending free time outdoors, trying out different sports—even if I don’t look too graceful at it—or socializing over a cup of coffee.

Men. I don't like it, and goddamn am I *trying* to fight back against it, but it really feels like as I get older, I've really lost my empathy for men as a group. I feel like I've just been worn down too much by misogyny; I've retyped this comment many times and the only way I can describe it is compassion fatigue. It doesn't make the problems men face less real or valid, but I've found it harder and harder to muster sympathy when it comes up. I don't know if I'm the only one, and I have no idea how (or if) it can be fixed.

Crowds. Used to love big events. Even if I just sat on the side and people watched. Now I find myself turning down opportunities because I don't want to deal with the crowds. Also, change in routine or expectations. I have a mental list of things I'm going to do on a given day and curse the person who messes that up. I try not to be cranky about it. I know I'm being unreasonable because it's usually not something important I'm neglecting. It just wasn't in my plans today damnit!

What annoys me the absolute most is the "Well if I don't do it, someone else will" mentality, but then used as an excuse to do bad/egocentrical things. I hate it. Everyone complains the world is going to s**t and how everyone's so self-centered these days, but the minute you confront them with the s**t they're pulling which only benefits themselves at the obvious expense of others, it's "If I don't do it, someone else will and I'd rather it be me that reaps the benefits". Then you can f**k right off Jerry with how everyone sucks these days. If you want general dickishness to decrease, then stop being a d**k.

I find using the F word as an expression of anger or frustration to be very satisfying (Im usually alone) But as a synonym for sex or as an adjective to describe anything, I agree. It's lazy and can be offensive.

The "F-word". Yes, it CAN be used in every form of grammar usage but it's really base and shows lack of creativity and education. It shows you're lazy with your words, and generally makes you look juvenile; as if you've failed to mature beyond the age of 16.
