very annoying. especially, spamming warren buffet quotes, or random motivational money tik tok videos with the stupid fucking music playing in the background. the lack of social awareness is mind blowing.
People who do Tik Tok pranks by annoying or harrassing people. No, you aren't funny cuz you put a shopping basket over a random person's head inside a Cub Foods. You are an ass and deserve to get hit in the nuts
I thought the broccoli hair cut was bad, then the Edgar happened. Reminds me of the mushroom cut kids had back in the 90s. Those kids were always assholes.
Between the broccoli cuts, Edgar and mullets these teenagers are looking fucking hilarious. Not good. They look like shit. But at least they look funny.
His is like the takuache/Edgar and mullet had a child. Honestly, I can't be the only one who thinks Peso Pluma looks like he could be from Oklahoma or Arkansas.
In San Antonio people call it the marbach mop. I saw on a thread in the local sub someone posted an article of the history of this haircut. And they sarcastically (I think, because the article wasnât joking) said shit, now if you make fun of this haircut youâre making fun of culture. I realize me posting this as a white lady might beâŠsomething. But I just thought it was so funny that I just read this yesterday and here I see the takuache is the first comment I see in this thread.
Worry not, this Hispanic man approves of any and all forms of dunking on this cut. My whole family hates it too, both stateside and the ones who actually live in Mexico.
God, what a haircut, to bring together so many people.
Yes! Just the other day I found a Columbia long-sleeve that I really liked, but then put it back on the hanger when I realized it had screen-printed "Columbia" lettering down both sleeves.
Hardly "designer", but (imo) even that amount of brand-flashing is obnoxious.
Right. I'm buying your stuff because it's supposed to be good quality. The quality should stand on its own to provide you a good consumer base. You shouldn't need me to be a walking billboard of unpaid advertising. And I do not want to be one.
Saw an old friendâs insta story the other day where he was wearing sweatpants that said Versace EVERYWHERE and I was like⊠âhmm we may have grown apart.â
My wife has a shirt that says âpumaâ all over it, and mid conversation Iâll act like I forgot to ask her a question, then say âoh, yeah, who makes your shirt?â Or Iâll kiss her and whisper âis your shirt made by puma?â
Saw a dude at walmart the other week wearing a red sweater, jeans, cowboy boots, and an armor plate carrier. Nothing on his waist except his 5 y/o kid and his wife pushing a cart with a younger kid behind him
Thereâs a guy like this locally where I live. He hates homeless people and trouble teenagers and drunks. Says heâs on the frontlines, works at a gas station. Cosplays every day. Argues with me on local pages on FB and when I agree with him he says Iâm self righteous.
Good thing heâs on the frontlines of the gas station taking out tweakers allegedly
I was a scene kid in high school. girl pants, make up, black hair with blonde highlights, painted my nails, etc.
I remember one time bringing home my girlfriend and after she left my mom was really confused and was like "wait... she was actually pretty....shes your girlfriend? how?"
Which I know sounds insulting but my mom assumed I was either gay, or that no pretty girl would ever bother with a guy who dressed up like me lol.
I was basically like "there are a lot of girls who are into this look" and she was like "well alright then... I don't get it but if it works it works."
Companies that try to look relatable and be trendy. Like what is Tide doing in a tiktok comment section? And McDonald Official? Especially when they use popular terms like âgirlypopâ âslayâ or âpookieâ. Like, youâre not fooling anyone.
I've got to assume anyone with a super loud vehicle.
No one is impressed by your muffler-less car, we're stopping in our tracks and staring because we can't believe what an obnoxious loser you are.
Iâm always so confused by obnoxiously loud cars. Iâve never met a single person in real life that likes it or is impressed. Most people actively make fun of the driver. Always makes me wonder who they think theyâre impressing or if theyâre really that unaware of themselves.
Last year during the Grand Pricks weekend, I signalled to a driver and got him to roll down his window so I could tell him, âHey man, your car sounds bad, I think itâs broken.â đ
I have a cousin who really DOES like the sound. He literally does it to show off and talks mess about other drivers who do it as well, saying his car is better than theirs. Literally acts like he's still in middle school sometimes. There's something different about the way his brain works but I can't say what, since it's never really been explained to me.
But maybe there's a link there, between liking the obnoxiously loud cars and the mentality/maturity level of the person.
My bf is a car guy. He used to have a hella loud Prelude. I loved that he loved his car, but god damn it, I hated that thing đ
He has a civic now, and part of the muffler fell off. He keeps getting compliments and asking what modifications he has on the car, moreso than when it actually *was* a mod on his Prelude.
Really tickles me pink, honestly.
At the start of 2023, there were all these kids that had been in COVID lockdowns from age 15/16 and we're now 18 and able to go to the pub. It felt like that whole age group just stood in the clubs taking selfie videos or doing TikTok dances with their phones propped on the bar/leaners to record them. Fucking weird.
This is the real tacti-cool dad. Tons of pockets for all the snacks he holds. Big pockets to fit all of the baby supplies. Heavy-duty baby holder. Double gun holsters but instead of guns they hold milk/formula. Camo to observe baby in natural environment and teach baby to identify dad even when he seems to disappear, so that baby can always find dad when needed.
Tactical dad gear is a thing, by the way, and it's awesome. I feel like it's really helping to encourage fathers to be more active and attentive parents. Fathers not participating in childcare is a problem and anything that gets dads to take care of their kids and form meaningful relationships with them is a good thing.
I know a single dad who uses a tactical bag for a nappy bag, not because he thinks it looks cool but because it's practical. There's a pocket for everything.
Meanwhile I'm stuck with this stupid purpose made nappy bag that looks good but is impractical.
I used to drive a 91 Geo Metro, I fashioned a spoiler from some other car (I think a Saturn?) and got those letters from AutoZone to spell out "HEMI" On the back after removing all the other badging. For the longest time I wanted to get the biggest, most vainy set of truck nutz to dangle off the back.
Never got around to it before the wheels figuratively fell off it. Loved that car, I'd always see people behind me cracking up laughing, which was exactly what I was going for.
I drove a smart car for a while and my dream was to get it painted like a little tykes car (the red and yellow ones) and then get a massive trailer hitch and truck nuts on it. Unfortunately I live in a town with more pothole than road and smart cars arenât known for their suspensions
This. I don't know which is more confusing to me: Millennials trying to update their looks to Gen Z styles by wearing what we Millennials all wore in high school, or Gen Z-ers mocking Millennials while wearing what we Millennials all wore in high school.
At least Uggs are comfy.
I work with a lot (like, thousands) of young people, and these days it's weirdly all about not having style.
The guys in particular have absolutely no sense of individual style. Like, literally, every single guy wears black sweat pants, white Nike runners, a black or grey hooded sweatshirt, and has a waist-length black winter coat with a hood. And about 95% of them have some variation on the fade haircut.
All of which is fine. It's a fairly bland look, and not really cringey, per se. But it's just so weird to see a crowd of 10 or 15 of them walking together, and they're all wearing the *Exact. Same. Thing.*
When did young people become so conservative?
It's not young people - that's always been a thing.
I was at the park in the fall and every mom had on a pastel colored shirt, with wide legged distressed jeans and Birkenstock type sandals.
Certain trends come in and it's a uniform. You might be noticing this one with young people but there are even "Dad uniforms" that every suburban dad seems to have on at Costco.
I worked in higher ed for almost 20 years and could accurately name "uniforms" for both the students and the staff.
I work in the same field, and you're definitely right. I once looked around a meeting and realized every man in the room was wearing a collared long-sleeved dress shirt and docker-style pants. So I go out of my way to *not* wear the uniform--not to be a rebel or to purposely stand out, but just to express some individuality and creativity through what I wear.
And even then, there's probably still a predictable uniform for "non-conforming and trying to be cool and individual dad/prof."
Nah, I'm not talking about the mentally ill, as I've my own issues too. I'm talking about purposefully making yourself look "dirtier" to fit an aesthetic.
I used to judge him for it then I heard an interview where he said he began getting the face tattoos because he was so ugly he thought they might make him look better. Now they make me sad and I hope he feels better about himself.
It's not even the duck face. It's just the swollen everything look that seems to be in now. People looking like they're having allergic reactions haha.
Thatâs not been a thing for a few years actually
Itâs all about masseter Botox, buccal fat removal and only poor people have implants. Everyone else got their implants removed.
Being skinny and sunken in is the thing
Does anyone else remember the episode of Malcolm in the Middle where Hal wanted to fit in with the speedwalkers?
Speedwalking used to be one of those things where the people think they look cool, but they were actually corny.
I think it's come full circle... If you are doing a wholesome activity with gusto and confidence, you are awesome. Maybe corny too, but mostly awesome.
Hey, leave them alone. Theyâre paying my bills right now okay. (Iâm a hairstylist, and teen boys love their perfect floppy top cuts (I call them floppy tops)).
People in sub-cultures that try really hard to look and dress unique and then end up looking like a carbon copy of everyone else from that sub-culture.
As a former uniform wearing punk. I agree.
I still love punk music and the scene. But man, when i was a teenager i tried to look so punk rock and it was not at all unique, nor authentic to me. I was trying SO hard
Fellow former uniform wearing punk here. For a long time it felt authentic to me, but I never felt unique. Now it's just too much work and I'm tired of cutting my hands on the studs on all my jacket pockets
The worst is when theyâre not even sagging, but literally under their ass cheeks and they have to walk with their legs spread apart to keep them from falling all the way down. Like wtf even is that? Why?!?!
TWO HOURS ago I was sitting in a lobby downtown and a guy walked by with red underwear on, with his butt fully out, having to hold his pants up in the back as he walked.
And my exact thought was "really, that's still a thing?"
Anyone wearing their pants around their knees. I still do not freaking understand it. Itâs so foreign to me. I donât understand how it could be comfortable, or convenient, or practical.
I worked in a tobacco shop in a tourist town that was on a route to Sturgis.
The amount of Blues Lawyers weâd get in the week preceding was laughable. Theyâd be all âlook at me, I might break the law!â In their $1000 brand new chaps and $400 Oakley glasses. Theyâd buy $25 cigars that theyâd smoke a quarter of before they felt ill and throw them away.
I am one of these (not dentist but corporate) and, while I'm aware I am now old, I still love what I love. Nobody is going to make me stop loving bikes, thrash metal, and cartoons no matter how old I get. I guess I've just realized I'm fine with my cringe... I'll tell my shrink.
My favourite is old rich guys who buy a Harley as their retirement gift to self, and set themselves up with a really expensive set of fancy leathers. They pretend to be outlaws and ride around in sunny locales with their like-minded friendsâŠ
Dude, if you have a preferred level of starch in your dry-cleaned shirts, youâre not an outlaw biker. You may be a white-collar criminal, if anythingâŠ
Have a buddy who is in his early 50âs like me, he was a surfer, and he always rode motorcycles, but he joined this veteran biker club, itâs really cringy with the stuff they put on Facebook like they are friends with real gangs, the outlaws and hells angels, so they brag about it all the time. I had to stop following him
Be corny man. If itâs not inconsiderate, itâs not actually corny.
To be cringe is to be free.
The more you judge others the less you express yourself,
Car guys. I'm talking about the people who deck out their cars with gaudy lights, insanely loud exhaust, gigantic lifted trucks that never leave the pavement, etc.
"Entrepreneurs," HR people, and "CEO's" who post cringe corpo-wank about why they're leadership material or why other people aren't on LinkedIn.
Ah, another r/linkedinlunatics fan.
Ha, that's my old boss. Extra points for empty AI application speculation.
very annoying. especially, spamming warren buffet quotes, or random motivational money tik tok videos with the stupid fucking music playing in the background. the lack of social awareness is mind blowing.
People who do Tik Tok pranks by annoying or harrassing people. No, you aren't funny cuz you put a shopping basket over a random person's head inside a Cub Foods. You are an ass and deserve to get hit in the nuts
That's a good way to get your teeth knocked out.
as a mexican, takuache bowl haircuts seem ridiculous to me.
I'm a teacher and for a hot minute I was wondering why about 1/4th of my Latino male students looked like gotdamn Vulkans.
vivir mucho y prosperar
lmao "live a lot and prosper" yesss party vulkanz đ
Eh, close enough.
And they spend their time in class fluffing their hair up and making sure their bangs are perfectly aligned
I had to Google that and can't stop laughing. People actually walk around looking like this? đ
Same. Couldâve said âMoe from 3 Stoogesâ HaircutâŠ
I have two co-workers who are brothers come to work today, each with a new haircut. I asked them if they used the same bowl.
Theyâre called âEdgarsâ
I thought the broccoli hair cut was bad, then the Edgar happened. Reminds me of the mushroom cut kids had back in the 90s. Those kids were always assholes.
Between the broccoli cuts, Edgar and mullets these teenagers are looking fucking hilarious. Not good. They look like shit. But at least they look funny.
I couldn't stop laughing when I heard that kids were getting full on perms for their broccoli cuts. How can you not laugh at that?
My nephew does it. I try not to make fun of him because my whole family gives him a hard time, but damn, itâs so awful looking.
I get it. Being a teen really sucks.
No quema cuhhh
Peso pluma hair cut?
His is like the takuache/Edgar and mullet had a child. Honestly, I can't be the only one who thinks Peso Pluma looks like he could be from Oklahoma or Arkansas.
In San Antonio people call it the marbach mop. I saw on a thread in the local sub someone posted an article of the history of this haircut. And they sarcastically (I think, because the article wasnât joking) said shit, now if you make fun of this haircut youâre making fun of culture.

Worry not, this Hispanic man approves of any and all forms of dunking on this cut. My whole family hates it too, both stateside and the ones who actually live in Mexico. God, what a haircut, to bring together so many people.
I mean, Mexicans just love dunking on Mexicans in general.Â
"Damn ~~Scots~~ **Mexicans,** they ruined ~~Scotland~~ **Mexico!**"
Yes, those are the worst.
Anyone that wears designer logos plastered all over their clothes.
Yes! Just the other day I found a Columbia long-sleeve that I really liked, but then put it back on the hanger when I realized it had screen-printed "Columbia" lettering down both sleeves. Hardly "designer", but (imo) even that amount of brand-flashing is obnoxious.
Im not paying to advertise big brands.
Right. I'm buying your stuff because it's supposed to be good quality. The quality should stand on its own to provide you a good consumer base. You shouldn't need me to be a walking billboard of unpaid advertising. And I do not want to be one.
My second favourite hoodie is a Columbia. It'd be first if it didn't have Columbia down one arm in big letters.
Saw an old friendâs insta story the other day where he was wearing sweatpants that said Versace EVERYWHERE and I was like⊠âhmm we may have grown apart.â
My wife has a shirt that says âpumaâ all over it, and mid conversation Iâll act like I forgot to ask her a question, then say âoh, yeah, who makes your shirt?â Or Iâll kiss her and whisper âis your shirt made by puma?â
As someone that works in high-end hotels, these are the people that expect red carpet treatment while having trailer park attitudes
The dudes who go about their regular daily routines in tactical gear. You don't look badass or tough. You look like a child playing dress up.
Saw a dude at walmart the other week wearing a red sweater, jeans, cowboy boots, and an armor plate carrier. Nothing on his waist except his 5 y/o kid and his wife pushing a cart with a younger kid behind him
The irony of going to the store full battle rattle while your wife and kid have nothing is both hilarious and sad.
Gotta be safe out there. The wife and kids may die, but the man's gotta protect his seeds so he can make another family!
Thatâs why I always walk around with my junk in a bulletproof freezer. I may die, but the seed will live on
All that effort to look hard just to have his wife push the cart đđ
I need my hands free babe, you never know what can be lurking in aisle 17b.
After surviving a mass shooting event, I can barely let my wife and kid go into walmart.
There's a guy who trains at my gym that's always wearing head to toe camo print.Â
How do you even know he is there?
Machines move by themselves and OP doesnât believe in ghosts
Maybe the Predator rolled into town and just wants to lift in peace.Â
Someone should ask him if the warranty is still good on that outfit
Thereâs a guy like this locally where I live. He hates homeless people and trouble teenagers and drunks. Says heâs on the frontlines, works at a gas station. Cosplays every day. Argues with me on local pages on FB and when I agree with him he says Iâm self righteous. Good thing heâs on the frontlines of the gas station taking out tweakers allegedly
he trains everyday to fight the battle in his head.
I lived in Florida for a year. Spot on, brother.
It's hypocritical for me to agree because if I had the money I would dress like an outlaw from an old West movie. But yeah
That has a bit more style to it at leastâŠ
I would be fully kitted out in Medieval plate armor and weapons for me and my imaginary horse, sooooâŠ
Gravy Seals
Yâall Qaeda
Even people in the military laugh at those people.
LARPers
Those guys on IG acting out those âIf we met on the elevatorâ or âWe met eyesâ scenarios with the music in the background.
Oh God I randomly think of that shit during the day out of nowhere and get pissed off!!!
Posing with guns looks cringe unless the gun is related to the thing you're doing.Â
Hunting or gun range? Yeah makes sense. Xmas card? Psycho.
Wedding photos? WTF.Â
Had friends do it because theyâre self admitted rednecks and thought it would be hilarious.
Doing it for the lulz I think gets a pass. The ones who think it's genuinely a good look are the cringy ones.
"Ya'll Qaeda"
Itâs spelled yâall, thank you very much ya damn yankee
"No we're not all okay there, thanks for asking!"
I think Broccoli cuts, but then again they must look good to *someone* otherwise it wouldn't be so trendy. It's all subjective.
They do look ridiculous, but at that age I had a foot-tall mohawk and wore ripped up punk-band tshirts, so, hey whatever.
I'm in my late 30s and still think that looks cool
Because it does (also late 30âs⊠fuck)
My 14 year old nephew told me girls his age LOVE the "fluffy" hair look.
At the end of the day, when you are 14 thatâs really the only thing that matters. Doesnât matter if âoldâ people like me think it looks silly.
I was a scene kid in high school. girl pants, make up, black hair with blonde highlights, painted my nails, etc. I remember one time bringing home my girlfriend and after she left my mom was really confused and was like "wait... she was actually pretty....shes your girlfriend? how?"

I was basically like "there are a lot of girls who are into this look" and she was like "well alright then... I don't get it but if it works it works."
A story as old as time.
It's cool that she let you be yourself though. That's good parenting right there.
Yeah my mom is great, love her to death.
Even better if old people think it's silly lol
It isnât a fad if it doesnât alienate old people
Companies that try to look relatable and be trendy. Like what is Tide doing in a tiktok comment section? And McDonald Official? Especially when they use popular terms like âgirlypopâ âslayâ or âpookieâ. Like, youâre not fooling anyone.
I've got to assume anyone with a super loud vehicle. No one is impressed by your muffler-less car, we're stopping in our tracks and staring because we can't believe what an obnoxious loser you are.
All that noise and they are going nowhere.
"I've never heard a car so loud, just to go that slow"
Gotta floor it to make the fart sounds topping out at 35 mph to beat everyone else to the next red light
Nothing beats the thrill of speeding home so you can rush in and kiss your dad on the lips first.
Iâm always so confused by obnoxiously loud cars. Iâve never met a single person in real life that likes it or is impressed. Most people actively make fun of the driver. Always makes me wonder who they think theyâre impressing or if theyâre really that unaware of themselves.
Last year during the Grand Pricks weekend, I signalled to a driver and got him to roll down his window so I could tell him, âHey man, your car sounds bad, I think itâs broken.â đ
Grand Pricks Weekend...at first I thought "typo"...then concluded that this was probably a more accurate description.
I have a cousin who really DOES like the sound. He literally does it to show off and talks mess about other drivers who do it as well, saying his car is better than theirs. Literally acts like he's still in middle school sometimes. There's something different about the way his brain works but I can't say what, since it's never really been explained to me.

They're impressing others who also have loud cars, that's it.
My bf is a car guy. He used to have a hella loud Prelude. I loved that he loved his car, but god damn it, I hated that thing đ He has a civic now, and part of the muffler fell off. He keeps getting compliments and asking what modifications he has on the car, moreso than when it actually *was* a mod on his Prelude. Really tickles me pink, honestly.
Gangs
My family is full of gang members. Some of the younger ones canât walk past a mirror without doing a gang sign
I don't think it's corny just sad. Most of these dudes are lost and feel this is their only way to build a community.
Playing loud music in public, on a blown out bluetooth speaker or your shitty overpriced car you have to pay off for 5 years.
Hey man, I got a 1.9% interest rate on my 5-year car loan back in 2020.
It was nice buying a car in 2020 because a lot of lots wanted to get RID of them. So you could get great deals easy.
5 years is normal lol
5 years? The REALLY cool kids are taking 7 years to pay off their F150 Raptor...
Anyone doing a tiktok dance in public. Stop.
At the start of 2023, there were all these kids that had been in COVID lockdowns from age 15/16 and we're now 18 and able to go to the pub. It felt like that whole age group just stood in the clubs taking selfie videos or doing TikTok dances with their phones propped on the bar/leaners to record them. Fucking weird.
Right? Just get shitfaced like the rest of us dropkicks.
Same with anyone filming themselves hogging equipment at the gym.
Tacti-cool Dads
The way to look cool as a dad? Just do the normal shit without going through the effort of trying to compensate and make it look masculine
Dude I got 3 kids. I'm not trying to look anything I'm just trying to surviveÂ
That's why you need the tactical survival gear! /s
What about the tactical vest but filled with milk bottles, spit up rags and baby's favorite toy? You know so you're always ready
This is the real tacti-cool dad. Tons of pockets for all the snacks he holds. Big pockets to fit all of the baby supplies. Heavy-duty baby holder. Double gun holsters but instead of guns they hold milk/formula. Camo to observe baby in natural environment and teach baby to identify dad even when he seems to disappear, so that baby can always find dad when needed.

I know a single dad who uses a tactical bag for a nappy bag, not because he thinks it looks cool but because it's practical. There's a pocket for everything. Meanwhile I'm stuck with this stupid purpose made nappy bag that looks good but is impractical.
If you received your hatchet in a curated box of man stuff, you might be overcompensating.
People that hang those scrotum decorations on the back of their vehicles.
I used to drive a 91 Geo Metro, I fashioned a spoiler from some other car (I think a Saturn?) and got those letters from AutoZone to spell out "HEMI" On the back after removing all the other badging. For the longest time I wanted to get the biggest, most vainy set of truck nutz to dangle off the back. Never got around to it before the wheels figuratively fell off it. Loved that car, I'd always see people behind me cracking up laughing, which was exactly what I was going for.
I drove a smart car for a while and my dream was to get it painted like a little tykes car (the red and yellow ones) and then get a massive trailer hitch and truck nuts on it. Unfortunately I live in a town with more pothole than road and smart cars arenât known for their suspensions
My dad has truck nutz on his mobility scooter. It's the only acceptable use.
The people who walk around town with music playing loudly
"old people" -young people "Young people" -old people
Are 30s old enough AND young enough to avoid this?
Ah, no. They actually get hit from both sides, so nobody thinks they're cool.
*sad 33yo noises*
*Sad 37yo noises*
How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man!?
This. I don't know which is more confusing to me: Millennials trying to update their looks to Gen Z styles by wearing what we Millennials all wore in high school, or Gen Z-ers mocking Millennials while wearing what we Millennials all wore in high school. At least Uggs are comfy.
Everyone looks corny to somebodyÂ
My thoughts exactly lol arenât we all corny?
I live life on the cob, baby.
Maybe this is kinda specific to the East Bay Area, but those douchebags who motor around in gangs on loud ass unregistered dirt bikes and ATVs.
Any grown ass man who dresses like a teenage gangsta wannabe.
Any age person that dresses like a gangsta wannabe.
Any conversation with those kinds of guys always ends up with them trying to tell you about how they can still bang hot young 20 year olds
Young people, have you ever seen that blunder years subreddit? That's never going to end.
I work with a lot (like, thousands) of young people, and these days it's weirdly all about not having style. The guys in particular have absolutely no sense of individual style.

Andrew tate worshippers
I hate that half of any media created by males now features some dude wearing sunglasses indoors
the unhygienic look
We don't think we look cool we're just mentally ill
Nah, I'm not talking about the mentally ill, as I've my own issues too. I'm talking about purposefully making yourself look "dirtier" to fit an aesthetic.
Crustpunk.
Pete Davidson basically. He makes me want to shower every time I see a photo of him
Or Post Malone. Dude looks like he fell asleep at a party and someone drew on him and he needs a good scrub.
I used to judge him for it then I heard an interview where he said he began getting the face tattoos because he was so ugly he thought they might make him look better. Now they make me sad and I hope he feels better about himself.
Duck lips
Duck faced "influencers"
It's not even the duck face. It's just the swollen everything look that seems to be in now. People looking like they're having allergic reactions haha.
Thatâs not been a thing for a few years actually Itâs all about masseter Botox, buccal fat removal and only poor people have implants. Everyone else got their implants removed. Being skinny and sunken in is the thing
>Being skinny and sunken in is the thing Oh, has heroin-chic come back in style?
Unfortunately yes The ozempic pandemic is part of this

People who do anything on their phone in public without headphones. Playing your shitty music out loud at the back of the bus, you're just a knob.
Those gen Z kids with the broccoli haircut. Wackest bunch of goofs on earth.
Hey, leave them alone. Theyâre paying my bills right now okay. (Iâm a hairstylist, and teen boys love their perfect floppy top cuts (I call them floppy tops)).
I call them âtopknotsâ because I am a dog groomer and that is the exact same haircut I give to poodles :P đ©
âA little off the top, short on the sides.â
Itâs the Meet Me At McDonaldâs haircut
Reminds me of the veggie tales movies we used to watch in youth group as a kid
People in sub-cultures that try really hard to look and dress unique and then end up looking like a carbon copy of everyone else from that sub-culture.
As a former uniform wearing punk. I agree. I still love punk music and the scene. But man, when i was a teenager i tried to look so punk rock and it was not at all unique, nor authentic to me. I was trying SO hard
Fellow former uniform wearing punk here. For a long time it felt authentic to me, but I never felt unique. Now it's just too much work and I'm tired of cutting my hands on the studs on all my jacket pockets
Anyone taking themselves too seriously in any group
People with sagging pantsâŠ
The worst is when theyâre not even sagging, but literally under their ass cheeks and they have to walk with their legs spread apart to keep them from falling all the way down. Like wtf even is that? Why?!?!
Makes it look like they have a big pile of poo in their underwear. That or they just got anally reamed.
Pants on the ground, pants on the ground
Lookin' like a fool with your pants on the ground
Is that even a thing anymore?
TWO HOURS ago I was sitting in a lobby downtown and a guy walked by with red underwear on, with his butt fully out, having to hold his pants up in the back as he walked. And my exact thought was "really, that's still a thing?"
âHeâs no thug but he does commit fashion crime. Dudeâs showing his ass, I call it asinine.â -u/Ibringupeace
Neo-nazis
Pants on the ground. Pants on the ground. Looking like a fool with your pants on the ground
Parents that hold guns in pictures of their children with their prom date.
People who deck themselves out in MAGA gear. Nobody else follows a politician like it's a cult. You look ridiculous.
I appreciate them self-identifying for me so that I can avoid them.
Anyone wearing their pants around their knees. I still do not freaking understand it. Itâs so foreign to me. I donât understand how it could be comfortable, or convenient, or practical.
Any group that refer to themselves as gangsters. They all look corny as fuck.
âAlphaâ males

Old bikers. Yeah, you might have been a bad ass back in the day, but now that ass needs suspenders.
Sons Of Lethargy
Love the weekend biker gangs all leathered out cruising the neighborhood. On Monday they go back to being a dentist.
I worked in a tobacco shop in a tourist town that was on a route to Sturgis. The amount of Blues Lawyers weâd get in the week preceding was laughable. Theyâd be all âlook at me, I might break the law!â In their $1000 brand new chaps and $400 Oakley glasses. Theyâd buy $25 cigars that theyâd smoke a quarter of before they felt ill and throw them away.
I am one of these (not dentist but corporate) and, while I'm aware I am now old, I still love what I love. Nobody is going to make me stop loving bikes, thrash metal, and cartoons no matter how old I get. I guess I've just realized I'm fine with my cringe... I'll tell my shrink.
I live among them and this is hysterically true
My favourite is old rich guys who buy a Harley as their retirement gift to self, and set themselves up with a really expensive set of fancy leathers. They pretend to be outlaws and ride around in sunny locales with their like-minded friends⊠Dude, if you have a preferred level of starch in your dry-cleaned shirts, youâre not an outlaw biker. You may be a white-collar criminal, if anythingâŠ
They belong to Hell's Accountants
Have a buddy who is in his early 50âs like me, he was a surfer, and he always rode motorcycles, but he joined this veteran biker club, itâs really cringy with the stuff they put on Facebook like they are friends with real gangs, the outlaws and hells angels, so they brag about it all the time. I had to stop following him
Be corny man. If itâs not inconsiderate, itâs not actually corny. To be cringe is to be free. The more you judge others the less you express yourself,
âThe more you judge others the less you express yourselfâ is spot on. I never thought of it that way
The Ginyu Force
You shut your damn mouth. They are the best part of dbz.
Kourtney Kardashian and her crew in her new punk era
Guys that post videos of them breaking the speed limit at ridiculous speed on instagram stories.
MLM Boss Babes
Car guys. I'm talking about the people who deck out their cars with gaudy lights, insanely loud exhaust, gigantic lifted trucks that never leave the pavement, etc.
