Especially when it harms others

Sick of the blue and pink dye and pieces of paper in parks etc.

I think gender reveals are fine when intimate and personal. My brother sent me cookies in the mail to reveal they were having a daughter. I thought it was very cute (and delicious!) The huge reveals are the problem.

I think done respectfully, gender reveals can be fun. What annoys me about them are the extreme people go to where the environment and sometimes other people get hurt. Also, where the parent shows visible disappointment in the gender is annoying AF. I get gender disappointment is a thing and doesn't necessarily mean the baby isn't going to be loved but if you are going to record it and be an a*s about it don't do it!

I hate the blue and pink stereotype. It's such an absurd thing to me that BABIES are given certain names and "assigned colors" and wardrobes based on how they look. WHY ON EARTH are you making SUCH A BIG DEAL out of what chromosomes your child has? It's ridiculous.

My preferred method of gender reveal is going onto say Facebook and posting 'It's going to be a boy/girl'

Such narcissism these events display.

And it might turn out to be wrong. Based on an ultrasound? Some babies are intersex, after all.

Gender reveals as an excuse to have a party is fine. Just don't go over the top and especially don't be a nuisance in public.

Ours was a lot of fun and totally harmless. We gave the gender result to a local baker that created a pink or blue cake core with a nice thick frosting. Neither my wife or I knew the gender, so we both found out when we cut the cake.

it's like they can't wait to tell everyone what shape their children's genitals are.

And they never reveal a gender. It's always one of the two we all already know about.

should be illegal - the child hasn't decided

No biggie. They're having fun. They could of course trigger types who don't recognize gender or who think these parents are "forcing gender" on their newborn.

BREEDING GROUNDS for pedophilia.

And before the “but but it raises publicity!!!!” crowd comes along: if you want to do that, do it in the back room of the soup kitchen or something. No one cares about my volunteer group taking photos of ourselves because we don’t exploit people who are in a situation where it’s difficult to say no.

Filming yourself for social media, period, just stop. You want to film you and your drunk friends doing trick shots, please do. You want to show me how you make a burrito with pizza rolls and scrambled eggs, hell yeah. You want to film yourself acting petulant, entitled and crying because the Starbucks batista spelled your name wrong, please f**k off. "Hashtag" "over it".

The toilet

Living in a huge city I thought I knew the story behind every homeless person. Then I got a job at a social service agency working with the homeless. Come to find out I knew nothing. But I did hear some of the saddest most horrifying stories and met far too many women who fled their homes with absolutely nothing to escape a violent abusive partner. Some of them the police would just dump off at our door. I'll never forget one woman who was barefoot, no purse, had been beaten to a pulp by her husband and they had just moved to the city and had no family or friends there. Thankfully we were able to send her to family. The burnout rate at those jobs is high.

It’s time for influencers to be shamed out of existence

Not just guys. Women too.

That Daddy kink trend is something I cannot wait to see die out.

When I lived in Brighton there was a woman on our street who would draw around dog poo with chalk and be so passive aggressive about it, it was brilliant. pick it up!

Posting pictures of a teenager w/o permission.

I love the ones who tell you their hands are registered weapons. Yeah, ok pal. Where do you get the registration form, the DMV?

Tiktok trends in general. All of it. Literally notllhing is worth watchimg. Tiktok is trash.

In the past month, I have had 5 instances of women on loud speaker on their phone coming into public toilets in my local shopping centre and jabbering away while they take a p**s, flush etc...wat is happening?

BrownTabby - you're sounding awfully bitter and misandrist.

I've got psychosis too, and trust me it is no joke.

It's good to do with little children and pets however. It's actually proven that the slow speech, higher pitch and repetitions help babies learn language. And pets are just put at ease by it. There is a reason people do this instinctively with little kids and animals.

Sometimes when I see people communicate this sort of thing it's because they've had extensive social trauma and it has been only animals they've had anything close to consistent safety with. It's not that they suck, they're just hurt. :(

Bro in public spaces too. I mean its fine if its like a cool dance, or the area is quite and it doesnt disturb people. But the people that go out of their way to go to a tourist destination or busy places just to do a half-arsed dance with the loudest music istg

Those people are the absolute worst.

The only time I do this is if one of my thrifting friends likes my sweater because when I say "thanks, it was only a dollar!" then we can gush over what bargain babes we are

"Condescending" is when you talk down to someone, for those of you who don't know ;)

I enjoy watching other people's joy when it's justified and deserved. What does annoy me is watching pretentious YouTubers buy a family tickets to a baseball game then expect to be praised and earn their spot in the Hall of Fame next of fu**ing Christ himself because they did a good thing. Doing "good deeds" shouldn't be about views and more money.

I hate this more than most things, what is wrong with people? It's disgusting.

.......The Tube Girl Trend. That s**t just looks uncomfortable for everyone around them.

"Life is definitely fun and not awful at all" - Ranger Kanootsen

some of us do this because we don't get enough when or where we need it so we do stuff like this so we can get good or bad attention

Same thing for medical professionals. I can blow your mind with talking about how a patient of mine ended up needing a laparoscopic colecystectomy, but it’s easier and less arrogant to say that they needed a gall bladder removal.

I hate mukbang videos with a passion
