It's no secret that our society has its flaws - dependence on technology, taxes, obesity, devaluation of workers - to name a few. Some people may not even want to think about any of these problems in society but illustrator John Holcroft, on the other hand, he looks them straight in the eye and depicts them in a satirical way.

Though not all of us have to deal with such problems, it is a great reminder to pace yourself and to familiarize with the society today. Who knows, it might make you a better person in some way.

With a style based on 50's advertisements and a vintage feel - Holcroft perfectly captures today's social issues and modern behavior. Also, his illustrations do so in a brutally honest manner. Keep on scrolling to check them out, and you just might realize with what social media problems you have to deal every day.

    this one is really deep as you can see those are girl faces or at least based on gender stereotypes they are, all the other faces are frowning while that one looks like a forced smile, this could mean a lot of things from trying to cope with clinical depression through smiling, or putting on a smile to get more friends.

Agriculture is probably second to only prostitution as the worlds oldest profession. Are we not supposed to make money from farming? Oh well. I guess I missed the point.

    Common Core in the schools. This is what children feel like. They are not able to explore their own creativity. There is no reason why a child should break down because the math they are learning in first grade is too complex. Learning concepts before the basics would make anyone feel this way

People wouldn't feed their kid candy for breakfast, but they're fine with those cereals :( It's fine as an occasional treat, but not for normal breakfast, ugh.

    Absolutely. This is the downside of all food regulation, banning products with much sugar etc. If you eat healthy and balanced and, therefore, have no reason NOT to eat stuff with many calories occasionally, you pay for those you just buy without thinking otherwise. It becomes particularly absurd with sports nutrition. I guess we will live to see big red warnings on long-endurance energy bars saying "contains more sugar than advisable for a regular diet" – guess what?

    Best to introduce them to guns at an early age so they can learn gun safety early on. But this is a little too far. At least wait until they are old enough to walk!

I feel like often times, people won't communicate problems and work it out - so yeah, it becomes a trap for them. Sorry, but you have to learn to communicate if you want a relationship.

    People with newspaper/books seek no communication with other humans by reading them. And I don't think they take any part in this example. I think this example is suppose to show us, that we can sit together at a table, but we are not really 'there' with the people sitting with us. We are still for ourselves by being glued to a screen and not interacting with the real flesh and blood humans.

It's up to us now to teach our younger generations proper etiquette for our technology use. I know that one of the mission goals for the microsoft hololens team is to bring social interaction back to being face to face, but still have the easy access to your technology. It's a long ways to go but a great mission.

    While there is nothing wrong with being single, I think it's about how people reject relationships after being hurt. Heck, here's a telling quote from The Walk by Richard Paul Evans. ""The thing is, the only real sign of life is growth. And growth requires pain. So to choose life is to accept pain. Some people go to such lengths to avoid pain that they give up on life. They bury their hearts, or they drug or drink themselves numb until they don't feel anything anymore. The irony is, in the end their escape becomes more painful than what they're avoiding."

    I think this one represents paying rent, we all know that is a huge waste of money. Paying a mortgage on a home is an investment, when you sell you get your money back and more...this picture is shredding money, meaning it's not coming back to you in a usable fashion.

    This can also represent getting a big nice house that let's say was purchased for 110,000 on a 30 year mortgage plan. Paying 1,000 a month because you're a first time home buyer. The banks wouldn't approve you for a 60,000 dollar house but they would for a new home. 12 months times 30 for the years times 1,000.

    The driver looks like a child to me, and so many children these days control their parents. Discipline is frowned upon ( not just talking about swats or spankings, however I do believe in them) " raise your child in the way of the Lord and they shall not stray fom it" it's rare to find parents raising their children in the such a way. Although, Jess I agree with your take on it as well

    Brainwashing children from a young age and normalising war. No future soldiers, no more arms sales, no more war, no profits for the war mongers. Shame the toy isn't more realistic; it doen't cower when it hears loud noises and finds normal life difficult after leaving the military, drinks and takes drugs to numb the memories. There should be a suicide note and a noose in the box as well.

    I think it's a dung beetle. That would mean she values poop?

    So the kid likes bugs. She'll study insects, discover rare ones, they'll name it after her and she's famous!

    It's all about the fact that we cut animal flesh, crack a hences egg, fry all this dead animal mess, cover it up, draw some innocent leaves and call it a food. It depicts all horible things that we do, but don't realize.

    I'm normally really cynical but my first impression on this one was that (he?/)she's putting her heart in her food and making it out of love.

    I think it shows how people are fake. She maybe follow the vegetarian "trend". She eats meat, but decorate with vegetarian food to show the vegetarian she is. Like most of people saying things that they aren't. Don't know...

    This is about the 15th picture making the same point — that folks are addicted to their smart phones, computers, etc. to the point of not interacting with living people around them.

    This is more about how media consumes so much of our time and attention that it can literally hold us down from rising to whatever heights we’d wish to reach for.... career wise or whatever. It’s just holding lots of us back from reaching full potential... instead of achieving we’re just posting s**t that’s meant to make others believe we already achieved something.

    I'd say : You can be easily attracted to the same direction (manipulated) via the technology.

    This seems to be a British car, one door has been changed, the car appears older than the generation of donut shaped spares, the rear tire doesn't have a hub cap, so go figure.

    So to.clarify that's a clutch on the ground not a rotor... Possibly it's a relationship to how expensive new car have become and the work that they require. One has to rebuild and use old junkyard parts in order to have an affordable car?

    Honestly, this one does not look like a problem at all to me. This is the absolute dream come true for many people, even the part about (having to) fixing the tire. The guy here is self sufficient, he's got his spare ready and waiting, he's got a full set of wrenches. It looks like he knows what he's doing. . . He's working on his car, and lots of guys love doing that.

    You can't change your tire without a jack first?

    Linda, you loosen the lug nuts before you jack it up.

    A 1970s Morris Marina is touted as a classic car and fetches a hefty price tag, when in fact it should cost you £150 max cos it’s an old heap of s**t that’s prone to break down and drinks too much gas for an ordinary family car of it’s day

    He has got the worst shirt on for this job. Someone’s nicked the toolbox, he has had his driveway blocked by a derelict car sat on bricks for over a year now and worse yet he had to buy a full set of wheels and tyres AND this has all come about because the next door neighbour noticed that the driver window has been left cracked night after night due to hot boxing the car after dark for allowing the smoke to clear
