Aibu to start a thread about popular things that you just don’t get!

[LondonElle]

I will start....

Mum- bloggers
Friends ( tv show)
Spas

Will probably think of more at some point
( this is meant to light-hearted and I appreciate everyone has different opinions)

Reality tv
Football
Drawn on eyebrows - just why?!
Zoflora
Cardi b
Twitter

Wasting money on teeth whitening, tattoos, fake nails eyebrows, lashes etc but always under the weather because they eat rubbish and or can’t won’t actually spend on decent food to cook.
Plan your meals, shop at the weekend, meal plan so it’s nourishing but convenient......stop wasting NHS time when you are all constantly ill.....it’s your responsibility to maintain good health.......not just good looks(fake) .

People who don’t read when it’s free and educational, fun and stress relief

Slug eyebrows - ridiculous!
Pandora jewellery - over priced shite
Instagram and Twitter
Hashtags
Duck face selfies

Oh, dear. I like greys, silvers, white and cream, a Brockman's gin and elderflower tonic goes down very nicely, spas make me feel blissful and I love a good scented candle. Shoot me now ...

Have to add my downvotes to Prosecco, Lyin'Air and Sleazy Jet, Uggs (esp. in the rain; WHY?), Simon effing Cowell for Crimes Against the Music Industry, Inspirational Bllx and Reality TV.

Popular things that for me are personally violence-inducing:

Louboutin shoes. Way to instantly cheapen any outfit.
Chester Races. In no small part because of abundance of Prosecco and Louboutin shoes.
The unwritten law that gender is distinguished by pink/blue colour-coding. Even purple's lately falling into the female classification zone. Just ... no.
Constant bloody strikethrough on Mumsnet posts. A real irritant. Either you want to say something or you don't. (NB. other social media sites don't do this).
Candy Crush. Would I be out of place to say I want Farmville back?
Bridezilla.
Groomzilla.
Star Wars belongs in the 70s; you can have too much of a good thing.
The Mountbatten-Windsor family.
Blue cheese. It's gross.
Princess Elsa.

Lip fillers and bad HD brows

Michael Kors bling bags

The Next New Year sale and queuing for it.

Massive TVs stuck to walls.

TVs that change to a horrible pic when off.

Birthday cards etc for family members

East Enders and ALL. other soaps.

Fake fringes. Never actually seen one live but haha. Classy.

The Snowman

People who intentionally make bad decisions
Bookshelves
Certain colors of paint
Telemedicine
Hot chocolate
Abandoned shops
Stupid questions

I’m sure there’s more. I’ll add to the list if I can come up with more

Regular selfies. Why? Why do you keep needing approval about you face.

Snapchat, particularly if you're in your thirties. Why?!

Any form of social media really. Facebook seems to make people very cringey and insecure

This Morning with Phil and Holly. Awful

Ed Sheeran and anyone else of that ilk. There's a blandness to a lot of that music.

Ridiculously priced mobile phones.

Hen weekends.

Any comedy with Lee Francis
Anything that affixes a word to January (dry/vegan/hair/run etc etc)
Elvis Presley/The Beach boys
Spas
Shopping for clothes as a big day out (eugh)
Manicures/pedicures/waxing
I fail as a woman, don't I?

Air freshener is a definite.
Snapchat and it's creepy filters

Snapchat

Ugg boots

Ratty hair that needs trimming/people who make 0 effort

Chipped nail polish

Pandora/Michael Kors/boden/joules/ted baker/RADLEY

Babies/tods in jeans

Stretched lobes

Beige buffets

Strictly come dancing

Unkindness
Hashtag
False nails

Live Laugh Love and other cheesy wall transfers.
Star Wars
Game of Thrones
Pandora jewellery
Radley bags

And if someone has a radley bag and pandora jewellery it makes me twitch

Soaps/Reality TV/Facebook/too much taupe or "greige"/Hen nights/Fancy Dress/murder mysteries/Michael Jackson (esp Thriller - that seems to make people go wild with excitement)/shopping for clothes/endless talk about diets & calories

Hunter wellies

Jeans with rips so big across the knees that when the wearer sits down they look like they are wearing a pair of Bermuda shorts with knee socks.

Nando's
Lip fillers
Vaping
Snapchat

Snapchat filters. Espesially on children when half their baby photos they have bunny ears or something.

Using enough chemicals a la mrs hinch to kill half the ocean

Grey houses

Hairbands on babies

Dressing children like mini adults

Most branded food...so expensive and not much better than non branded food.

Yes to orange tan/make up and ‘those’ brows - I had my brows waxed at Benefit the other day by a girl who looked like she might be the love child of an Oompa Loompa & Groucho Marx, she bloody massacred my brows (patchy, weird shape, trimmed them, waxed the sides off so they aren’t long enough for my face ..). How I expected her to have a clue I don’t know, but won’t be making that mistake again!
