No matter how old we get, we still find ourselves keeping up with the latest trends.

Binging the show everyone's talking about, downloading the newest app, and partaking in the latest social media craze, all in an effort to appear cool to our friends and colleagues.

Of course, not all of these trends are "cool" to us.

In fact, sometimes we grudgingly partake in these trends, no matter how idiotic they seem to us.

While others have no concerns about being cool, and won't even think about joining in with everyone else, choosing instead to gleefully look down on them.


A recent Redditor was curious to hear about all the popular fads which ignites an instant eye-roll in some people, leading them to ask:
"What's something extremely popular but you just can't give a f*ck about it?"

What Exactly Are They Trying To Influence?

"Influencers."

"They have a different vibe than I have/aspire to have, different ways of expressing themselves, different values, different beauty standards, etc."- smieklinsh

"So-called influencers."

'My personal opinion."

"If you like them, cool."

'No harm done."- queen_tabby

" Elon Musk.'

"Isn't aren’t part of my life, so why should I take time from my life to think about the crap they’re doing?"- attention21

Isn't It Good News Either Way?

"Gender reveal parties."- Back2Bach

Just Another Distraction

" TikTok never got into it."- thneakythnake660

How Many Strangers Are Looking At Your Pictures?

"Followers on social media."- Single_Goat3138

"Figure" Heads being the operative word

"The Royal Family."- Natasha_JB

Comfort Over Quality

"Sneakers."

"Like, I’ll indulge and buy a pair I think are really cool."

"But other than that, why tf would you spend $2000+ on a pair of shoes that actually cost less than $10."- eggtada

All Of Them!

"The Kardashians."- BeeImpressive7749

Fame Is Seldom The Same As Qualified

"I’d say entertainers who are so wealthy and think they are the voices of normal people."-mayoinstrumentalz

Or Anything Else About Him?

"Ye's Opinion."- SlimePrice

Just How Real Was It?

"Reality TV."- brycebrycehayeshayes

Can It Even Be Considered A Chat?

"SnapChat Streaks."

"Since when was a fire emoji and a number a symbol of popularity and friendship?"

"I just don't have the time for this sh*t."- Yes-I-Have-Arrived

Quality Over Quantity

"Starbucks."- Maleficent_Insect71

The best thing about opinions and personal taste is that they are unique to every individual.

No two people have to like the same thing, nor should we judge those who dislike something we like and vice-versa.

Even if it's hard to say it's unreasonable that not even two people should give Elon Musk or Ye any time of day.

Though again, that's just an opinion...

Gavin Newsom Just Hilariously Trolled President Trump's New 'Walk Of Fame' With A Brutal One Of His Own

California Governor Gavin Newsom mocked President Donald Trump by riffing off the presidential "Walk of Fame" Trump unveiled in the White House back in September, gifting us the "Presidential Walk of Fatigue" instead.

In September, Trump's assistant Margo Martin shared a video of a hallway filled with the portraits of former U.S. presidents. Martin announced that "The Presidential Walk of Fame has arrived on the West Wing Colonnade," and the video she shared pans over multiple portraits of former presidents before lingering on an image of Biden's autopen signature.

The OU Student Who Got A Zero On Her Bible-Based Essay Was Just Honored By Republicans—Because Of Course

Samantha Fulnecky, the University of Oklahoma student who received a zero on a psychology essay about gender after using the Bible as her only source, was honored by the Oklahoma House of Representatives with a special "Citation of Recognition" this week after her complaint—which resulted in a transgender graduate student being placed on administrative leave—made headlines.

Fulnecky's instructor Mel Curth, a transgender woman, assigned her students a 650-word essay about how gender stereotypes impact societal expectations of individuals. Fulnecky instead wrote about what the Bible says about "traditional gender roles," arguing that to refer to them as "stereotypes" is "demonic."

A sycophant is a person who "acts obsequiously toward someone important in order to gain advantage." An acolyte is a "true believer who helps carry out orders like a henchman, sidekick, or disciple."

While the words often get used interchangeably, they don't mean the same thing.
