Hustle culture, always being on the grind. I get some wild responses when I tell people I work under 40 hours a week and am thriving. Life should be more than work, even if I LOVE my job. -u/horrorharlot1199

Toxic productivity. Especially content creators who make money by selling an insane facade of a 20-something year old in peak mental and physical shape due to their 4am wake up routine and 25 hours of productivity each day. FOH -u/oceanofflavor

Lack of sleep. 'I only got 4 hours sleep last night'. Yeah grats on lowering your body's functionality I guess. -u/chronoslol

I can get a 2021 Kia Rio, or a Hyundai Accent, or a Nissan Versa, or a Chevrolet Spark for under $18,000 I can get a nice 2 carat diamond (0.4 grams) for about $18,000. How have we been brainwashed into believing that tiny stone is worth more than a car? -u/SiIentBOB

Vloggers with ugly, cringe, and lame content + their overly-scripted pranks. Seriously that’s a big sh*t. -u/imherecozidk

Cryptocurrency. I myself am a crypto holder but frankly most of the projects are just money grabs and re-skined ponzis -u/c7rbon909

The way we treat our celebrities because we treat them like gods or some other deity when they should be treated like any other normal human being and don't even get me started on how the Paparazzi are with them. -u/SP_21ones

Bottling up emotions and not asking for help when you need it. -u/ChutkiJoTuneMariHai

Treating politics like a sports game. People absolutely refuse to admit a politician they dislike did anything even remotely valuable in office, or that a politician they ‘like’ isn’t a good person. Not exclusive to any one side, and some people would miss the point of this comment entirely and say “lol so basically republicans/liberals amirite?” Then call everyone either racist, snowflakes, liberals, communist, hivemind, republitards, etc etc when they get downvoted. -u/PvtSmuffler

Oscars, Grammys, Emmys, Tonys and other stupid awards. -u/Lord-AG

NFTs. Sorry people, but there’s no real value there. -u/PacoMahogany

Equating money to respect. Just because a beggar does not have money does not mean he does not deserve at least the bare minimum respect as a human being. -u/arc_alt

Designer perfume. The profit must be astronomical even with the overproduced and decadent adverts. -u/skitzofredik

"No matter what, they're still your parents. You have to respect them" -u/Strand-Aldwych

Alcoholism being glorified as fun and living life. -u/strangegeneration94

People who refer to themselves as "influencers". -u/drchigero

Weddings. Got married in the courthouse for 80 bucks. Best decision we ever made. -u/Thefakeblonde

The stress on the individual. We'd get so much further if we helped to nourish and develop every member of society. But, this is not the case... which will probably lead to WWIII, as we drain our planet of resources and point the pitchforks at whoever our government tells us to. -u/Aye_Aye_Ron2468

Owning a house too big you don't even use 3 or more rooms (excluding bathrooms) on a monthly basis. Owning more cars than there are people who can drive them. Wasting ton of water to water your grass so it stays green or to clean your parking spot for the 7th time this month. -u/WinterGlory

Designer clothes and handbags. You're paying all that money to wear a logo, you're just paying them to advertise their products. Clothes and bags made out of the same materials go for so much less if you're not getting those extremely well known brands. Same functionality, same comfort. -u/MentlPopcorn

Being strong and independent. Humans are strongest as social units. It has always been so. Badass lone wolves make for good fiction but often make for weak, dysfunctional people in real life. Almost all of the great civil and military feats in world history have been achieved by the greatness of teams, not individuals. -u/TallNerdLawyer

TikTok, a software product of China that's intensely invasive of your privacy. -u/deanfranz12
