Trends You Don’t Understand
What trends make you wonder how they got popular? Or just confuse you?
I work in healthcare I know the Stanley cup story but still just why? So many people have them! I don’t know if it’s mostly a hospital thing. They are difficult to clean. Then they get all scratched up. Plus so expensive!
Also I’m just probably just not the right generation. I’m close to 38 here. But I don’t get Tic Tok like at all I’m sorry. I love YouTube I want a story.
ALL MY OPINIONS!
ALL OF THIS IS OPINIONS OF COURSE!
@Muse4apoem
sport bras a shirts, some people can pull it off but i cant lol
That’s all I wear because I hate regular bras. 🤣 But I don’t wear them outside of my shirt I’m not that confident.
@Muse4apoem
A trend I don't understand: Ship names for couples- Ex. Bennifer (Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez) or friends that fans match together. There are even name generators!
I think it’s just people being a fan. Needing one more thing to obsesses over. Plus they think it’s cute. They probably think the couple is going to “last a life time.” 😂
@Muse4apoem
You mean like getting one's latest girlfriend's name tattooed on one's forehead?
Ha ha my ex got my initials tattooed on his arm. I think it’s a bit different. He was really smitten with me. (Not my idea) He came back over and over after we broke up. Yeah I don’t get celebrities getting tats either with partners. They have a shorter attention span with partners.
@Muse4apoem
okay so actually very fun fact! My dad is a tattooist and hes never tattooed someones initials or name on their s.o and had them stay together that he knows of. Hes been tattooing over 20 years. Its kinda a taboo curse in the industry
Piercings and facial jewellery.
If both have them it must make a good snog somewhat precarious!
Me with my snake bites 👀 (lip piercings)
Everyone mixes English with their language when they speak 😄
@freshman12
Ok that one I understand lol...
I have coworkers who use English words interspersed with Spanish because their language either doesn't have a word for it, or they LEGIT CAN'T REMEMBER that one word in their language! XD (I always forget basic words sometimes lol)
Oh okay lol. Mostly Indians do that to show off 😄
I don’t understand Crocs. I get they’re comfortable but some people put those crazy charms on them. The colors! (Don’t get me wrong I LOVE COLOR!) What do people do when they step in a puddle?
Also I owned a pair of Croc SANDALS not the shoes. They lasted for years. Completely different from the shoe it was all black and plain. Very comfortable. I’m talking about the shoes lol.
The one who creates is no problem but the people who follows it which ends up as a trend. I think everything about people is meant to be contagious. Maybe it's the nature of mind.
@Muse4apoem trends I don't understand 🤔🤔🤔 pandora bracelets, people can spend £100 pound in a little tiny charm😮😮😮😮 laughing at people who are not funny, we should make a stand and tell them... We're not taking laughing anymore, f**k you get funnier!!!!!😏
celebrities who started the eating a placenta thing😝😝😝 then parents who won't reveal a child's gender or give baby a name, till baby's old enough to make own mind up!?!?? I mean what!?!! Getting married, don't understand that.
🤔🤔 that's all I can think of right now😁
@Tinywhisper11 we are not fake laughing anymore*
I think this fact is the important one innit 😄
@freshman12 yeah. But I know I'm funny😁 so don't need to fake laugh there😁
Of course no one wouldn't even say you're not funny and no one has said it so far because you're funny 😁 and no fake laugh here at all. You mentioned the fact twice so I just gave a comment 😁
@freshman12 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yeah pandora the thing is absurd. Maybe I just don’t understand rich people. 🤣 I wish people would let kids be kids.
@Tinywhisper11
Can we add gender reveal parties to this list? Especially after that couple started that huge forest fire in CA. Why ????
@NotAllHere713 yes we can ❤ adds it to the top of the list ❤
@NotAllHere713
People are dumb?? XD
@jesusredeemedme2425 some people😁
@Tinywhisper11
Why are people eating placentas????? O.O
@jesusredeemedme2425 a celebrity started it off, then it became a phase in the world of celebritys😝😝😝😝
@Tinywhisper11
EWWWWW just... no. XD
Hashtags do people even click on those? I don’t lol I felt silly the 2 times I even wrote them. What’s the point? #whocares #clickbait ha ha 😆
@Muse4apoem
The fact that younger people refer to "#" as hashtags, and us older ones saying pound signs XD
@Muse4apoem
Wow, I agree so much with you on everything that's currently in this thread. 😁
I don't get why people act like rabid animals on Black Friday. Most of the deals aren't even that good, and stuff is moving online anyway.
I also don't get why people well into their adult years still care about college football. It just seems a little sad to me, like, at least move on to the pros or something. 😂
@Torean
Is Black Friday still a thing? I remember when stores used to give out free stuff for the first 50+ customers. But now if you pay attention, stuff goes on sale a few months before Thanksgiving. Then the prices go back up. Then on Black Friday the same items go on "Special" at the discount price they were 2 months before.
@NotAllHere713
Pretty much. It was still going strong in 2018 when I was partially working retail. It was bad enough that an old lady was demanding the *one* cart she couldn't have because it was being used as a display for small stuff on sale. That small stuff ended up everywhere on the floor because she had a tantrum over it.
@Torean
People are strange XD
@Torean
I remember working retail. It sucks! I feel sorry for my daughter because she is working in retail now.
@NotAllHere713
Yeah, no one should have to work retail. 😔 I have a pretty quick temper with bad customers. I wasn't very nice to them. I was a retail hero in other ways though. I let people know every time they were trying to buy a censored copy of a CD. There was only one person who ever meant to buy the edited version the entire time I worked that job.
I come from a college football town. I wasn’t 100% into it was fun but come on lol. They get so drunk and party and destroy everything.
@Muse4apoem
Same. I got my car stolen once on a game day. I actually lived close enough that I was maybe a 20 minute walk to the stadium. So many people were around that I guess it was even easier to take it.
@Torean
Did they ever find it???
@jesusredeemedme2425
Yeah. On the side of a road with its engine missing. And... They didn't investigate it for weeks. We received a ticket in the mail for having it "illegally parked". Once we called, they cleaned up their act in a hurry.
The officer that failed to correctly report it stolen is the same one that pulled me over for no reason one night and called backup. They had me follow the light with my eyes, shined it up my nose, and searched my car. Then when he couldn't find any indication that I was under the influence or in possession of anything illegal, he broke my taillight and said that he pulled me over because my taillight was out.
Wow :(
Black Friday is lame lol so is cyber Monday. Just look out for a good deal who cares. I try to get something someone actually needs lol.
@Torean
And don't get me started on toilet paper fights during the early days of the pandemic... XD
I never understood people loving football period. XD
@jesusredeemedme2425
Ugh, my mom was one of them, I don't even know how she managed to get all that toilet paper when she has to use a motorized riding cart in the store.
I don't really get the appeal of football either. 😅 It's so very, very little action, yet it takes so very, very long. So many replays and commentator talking.
@Torean
She has mad skillz. lol
I only watch the Superbowl for the commercials, the free food, and the commercial bingo where we can win some really cool prizes! <3
@jesusredeemedme2425
Lol, apparently
I could be talked into the super bowl for free food. Good prizes are cool, but I hate bingo 😡 I never win
I LOVE FREE FOOD <3
So?? Playing is still fun <3
