The latest trends in almost anything.

People's houses/homes as a reflection of their value as a person. I don't care if your residence is so big you need to hire workers to help maintain it or you live in a studio apartment with a mattress on the floor. As long as it is clean and you are happy, I'm happy for you.

TBH, I think anyone who thinks you're a loser just because you don't like S and F words are actually making losers out of THEMSELVES. Psychological projection, anyone?

Yeah, this over-glorification of such profanity in media is overrated at best, and such chickencrap at worst, IMHO. :roll: (Mild terms, like "damn", "hell", and "crap", I actually am okay with, it's just I myself really distain the S and F words)

1. Sports I see no point in it, and it makes grown men act like toddlers

2. Social media, I love Wrong Planet and YouTube but can't stand Facebook, X/Twitter, Tik Tok or other nonsense that just causes drama and BS. Facebook, I found to be a waste of time, caused drama, and got me in trouble at work once. I still have messenger, but my account is deactivated, and I don't miss it in the slightest. X, Tik Tok, or others I've never used nor do I care to.

3. Smart Phones never owned one. I think it's turned society into idiots and made people rude.

4. Celebrity's, F them I could care less what they are doing or them wearing jeans that cost 2 grand. I admit I find the British Royal family kind of interesting.

5.Holidays, I know this means a lot to many people but Xmas, Easter, and the rest is just another day to me

6. Status symbols. BMW, big house, trophy wife.

7. Workplace drama, don't have time for it

I tend to find people who use the F bomb constantly to not be very smart in most cases. Yeah it slips out of me a few times a day but some people use it like And, or, The. I've worked in blue collar environments all my life and a lot of people talk like this, so I can see your point. I have no tolerance slurs or The C word. I know this sounds petty but I left a message board because of one poster calling me a f'ing C word. Board had nothing to do with autism btw

1. Football/soccer (for the most part)
2. Vehicle ownership
3. Celebrity gossip (again, for the most part)
4. Social media websites such as Facebook/X/TikTok
5. The biological imperative to procreate

Competitive sports in general, especially team sports with a ball. I can get into them for social reasons or drinking when I used to drink, but I don't really care. It's a bunch of mercenaries fighting each other for no reason other than entertainment. Traditional athletic competitions like in the Olympics are interesting.

What clothes celebrities wear, or almost anyone unless its something unique.

I would like to restate Charles Dickens. It's like an ADHD torture gauntlet. Oliver Pissed.

I don't care about election day in Canada. It doesn't matter who you voted for, they're all a bunch of sewer rats.

^ Don't disagree with you, but I think the point is to vote for the sewer rat out of the options that will be best for what you value. Otherwise, they're not held accountable to you in any way.

Diversity in media. I mean that both ways. I don't give a s**t if a show has a rainbow cast, or if a traditionally white character is portrayed by a black actor, but equally I don't give a s**t if the cast is all-white and straight.

I just cannot get excited about it either way.

^Or any of those other so-called "reality shows", such as Toddlers and Tiaras, and Jersey Shore.

I'd rather watch animation ANY day, whether anime or cartoon, than those tripe! :roll:
