People Share Which TikTok Trends Gave Them Anger Issues

TikTok trends move fast. The hashtags and popular "sounds" go in and out of popularity sometimes within a week.

While some trends are fun and catch at first, if they're dragged on for too long they can become annoying and even painful to see repeatedly.

Some of them are even harmful, like pranks that other people didn't consent to. It's not new to TikTok, but the easily marketable platform didn't help stop them.

We went to AskReddit to hear which trends make people the most angry.


Redditor JaneDoe1967 asked:

"What TikTok trend gave you anger issues?"

This list might make you angry, so reader beware.

Dancing while oversharing.

"The ones where they dance to some sh*tty choreography and tell a super personal story."

"You’re going to do the stanky leg while you talk about your mom’s cancer? "

"Strange to me lol."- supragirl98

"Horrible dances."- mariommsfilho.

Harassing people in public.

"Harassing innocent people who are just trying to buy groceries."- Alone-War2269

The fake pranks.

"The fake pranks with the extremely over exaggerated reactions, and perfectly scripted dialogue."

"I die a little bit every time one sneaks-in on my For You page."- novato1995

"Any 'prank' video where someone leads their SO to believe they are being cheated on"

"Like there was one where someone would pretend to accidentally text their SO 'they're gone now, you can come over' and then film their SO's reaction."

"Like that shit isn't funny, and I would 100% breakup with someone if they did that to me."- WitherWithout

Not really adding to the joke.

"Lip syncing standup comedy."

"Your silent delivery doesn’t not enhance the joke, it makes it weird."

"Oh, and duets where it’s just the other person reacting/laughing. Especially when they’ve obviously seen the video before and are faking it this time."- soolaimon.

Licking ice cream then putting it back.

"That b*tch who licked a tub of ice cream then put it back in the supermarket fridge."- im-still-broke-broke

The "Oh No" song.

"Oh no Oh no Oh no no no."- JOSimpson.

Videos that need a second part.

"Anything with Like for Part 2."

"It's frustrating."

"I feel old."- fatherping

Exploiting disabled people for views.

"Filming their autistic or mentally challenged relative that is clearly incapable of consenting to being the subject of all their TikToks."- MotherOfCrim.

Faking illness or neurodiversity for fun.

"People faking disorders of any kind and think they 'quirky' or 'cool,' depression and ADHD is not a fun combination."- Quirkyserenefrenzy.

Face Emojis.

"The face emoji crap, Chinese TikTok is like showing cool science stuff whereas our algorithms are underage girls doing face emoji challenges."

"TikTok is cancer."- Neffsss.

Repetition.

"Had to delete TikTok because every second video has the same music."

"The same stupid voice overs."

"I hate it so much if the app was a person I would murder them."

"God I’m so angry right now."- digitalbilly.

The "Never" song.

"The song 'Never'."

"The moment i heard it,. it triggered a hidden rage."- pissing2u.

"It's Just a song."

"The stupid “it’s just a song” like they'd take forever and do a part 2."- Rich_Ambassador_7634.

"Open up the safe."

"OPEN UP THE SAFE B*TCHES GOT A LOT TO SAY ERR BOOM B*TCH."

"Makes me want to throw my phone every time."- No_Loquat_7443.

"Shake it off..."

"The 'shake it off gacha' trend because it's about body shame.- Few-Scallion4693.

Stealing.

"Devious lick' basically stealing sh*t and recording it."- CreepyPandaMan.

"My friend is a teacher and it was the 'licks' one where kids were stealing sh*t from school."

"She got mad so I'd get mad."- Exact_Roll_4048.

Every single one.

"Essentially all of them because they encourage bad behavior and people are top stupid to do anything else."

"Plus some of them are actually dangerous."- MeSwimBest1.

If you haven't heard of these before, don't look them up.

It will probably only incite rage upon seeing them.

Or you'll be left with a song stuck in your head.

Hopefully, the trends that are harmful to others end as quickly as they took off.

Bezos, discussing a man who has attacked voting rights multiple times, previously suggested he might try to stay in office indefinitely, and continued to make erratic (and ironic) statements about presidential candidates needing cognitive exams, told anchor Andrew Ross Sorkin that Trump is much more mellow and calmer than he was during the first Trump administration.

In one instance, the name Michael D. Gonzales was announced while two women received their diplomas.

Mandy Moore Finally Spoke Out About That 'Toxic Mom Group' Drama—And She Didn't Hold Back

People might hope that when they make a new friend, they'll be friends for life. But the truth is, most friends will only be there for a reason or a season, like going to school or working together.

For former High School Musical star Ashley Tisdale, that season was new motherhood, a time when she was eager to meet women who understood the questions she had about babies and raising them, but also preferably women who understood what it was like trying to juggle being a successful businesswoman with being a mom, too.

JD Vance Just Tried To Give His Historical Hot Take On Pope Leo's Name—And He Missed The Point Entirely

Vice President JD Vance made a point that seemed pretty obvious to everyone except him when he, mentioning Pope Leo XIV, gave his take on the historical context around the tenure of Pope Leo XIII, who led the Catholic Church from 1878 until 1903.

Speaking at a White House briefing focused on the possible impact of the pope’s upcoming encyclical on artificial intelligence, Vance highlighted the symbolism behind Robert Francis Prevost, the first U.S.-born leader of the Roman Catholic Church, choosing the name Leo XIV.
