40 Trends Doomed To Lose Popularity In 5 Years, According To People In This Online Community
Trends and popular things are, by their design, things that change and shift with time. Something that was popular a year ago is now considered an outdated reference, a popular meme can outstay its welcome in a month, and minor trends go in and out of fashion daily. Basically, just because something is widely accepted today doesn't mean it will have the same significance after some time passes. Perhaps to commemorate these trends, or just catalogue them for future reference, there are community threads online that talk about the trendy things that likely won't be cool in 5 years' time. One such discussion is hosted on Reddit, where people readily expressed their opinions about what they think won't withstand the test of time.

Probably not going to happen, but I really wish influencers won't be "cool" anymore.
That is already happening, I think. I've noticed a growing backlash in recent months.
True. They're being made fun of. And a lot of businesses refuse to give freebies to these freeloaders.
Load More Replies...I dont understand influencers. They snap a pic of them in a designer jeans and expect us to care?
As generational heroes go, it's pretty sad. They'll go away if people stop supporting them. But there's a level of vapidity and shallowness that's become the norm, a lack of intelligence and insight. Plus, these many of these influencers are famous for NOTHING. No discernible talents at all. Unless body posing, flattering lighting, deceptive makeup and a giant plastic ass are considered talent.
A billion upvotes. How easily people sold themselves out for pennies to shill products.
Having the covid vaccine. Eventually it'll be as commonplace as a flu vaccine.
So if it becomes as common as the flue vaccine, how is that equate to losing popularity?
I'm fully vaxxed, but why would this go away in five years? People who are anti-anything, especially vaccines, aren't going to change their minds, especially since they don't believe in any other vaccines, either.
Not quite. SARS viruses have shown themselves to be much more mutable and variable than common flu viruses and their infectiousness generally increases with each time. We will be better prepared for the future outbreaks but masks and occasional localized lockdowns will not be going away any time soon.
Hopefully those fake pointy acrylic nails
Quick question to the people who’ve got ‘em, how the heck do you wipe? Just curious.
it's honestly not that hard to function with them, We wipe by putting we toilet paper in front of our nails, and I still do dishes, yesterday I raked the yard, and packed for a horse riding and hiking trip
Load More Replies...I always wonder how do they do everyday stuff, like wiping their arses.
Some of the things listed by the community are leaning more towards actual items, such as so-called MLM teas. Other picks feature plastic surgery trends. And then there are those who think that the websites we use now will lose their influence and be forgotten or abandoned. Basically, the things that send people raving today, in 5 years, could be irrelevant.
A lot of the stuff I see people doing on TikTok seems like the kinda thing you'd be embarrassed about in a few years
man, i hope. a lot of small buisnesses have a pretty main platform there though, so i'm not really sure where i stand on it.
I understand the kids like doing these silly dances and pranks- we all did when we were young.... But I don’t see that anymore on insta and TikTok. It’s grown adults doing these dances that are IMO for kids under 13. Pranks are funny when they are unsuspecting, not when they are scripted AND played out by adults
It's certain to be replaced by something else embarrassing. So long as there's social media platforms, there'll be a market for one that allows kids to show themselves off.
I love TikTok. I have found a lot of great small businesses that I now buy stuff from that I wouldn't have seen otherwise. I have picked up some great tips and ideas for my own business too. I get some great recipes, great tips on handling every day issues and just laugh at a lot of the skits that are done. I hope they don't get rid of it.
I agree! I love a lot of the content on tiktok. I don't see the dancing content because I don't like and share those videos, my for you page is full of activist accounts, skits, and small business! That's the good side of tiktok, and I would be saddened if they got rid of it.

Gigantic drawn on eyebrows.
Oh they'll go....for a while. Eyebrow fashion changes between skinny and fat. 70s skinny brows 80s bushy brows 90s skinny brows, I kinda ignored the rest, but avoided doing any eyebrow trend myself, I just tidy them to their natural shape (mum warned me after overplucking hers and having them not grow back properly)
It’s true. When my mother first plucked my eyebrows for me, I had a big, thick, dark unibrow (my hair was still very, very blonde at the time, but no longer the colorless white of my childhood), and my schoolmates made fun of me and accused me of dying my eyebrows, which wasn’t a thing back then (outside of Hollywood, that is). Over the years I kept plucking away trying to make them even, and now they are but a too-short pale version of their former glory.
Load More Replies...I don't get the painted-on, unrealistic eyebrows either. They look awful and so obviously fake.
Humongous butt injections.
When the Kardashapuss Klan croaks they’ll have to be recycled due to the amount of plastic they contain. My word, Khloe is unrecognizable now and looks like a Beyoncé twin. Don’t watch their shows or buy their crapola.
Kendrick said it best "Let me see something Natural, Something w some stretch marks"
I do wonder about how awful it will be for care home workers in the future when these people reach their dotage - having to wipe those huge backsides sounds like a nightmare...
When I see famous women who messed with their faces, I get creeped out. Meg Ryan, for instance, was as adorable as could be, but then she messed with her face and ended up looking like a blobfish. JUST DON’T DO IT!
Load More Replies...Her: "But I don't like Black Sabbath! Turn it off!" Me: ::boots her out of the car and she lands on her a**e and bounces across 3 lanes:::
Trends are tricky because of their very foundation. Something becomes popular because it's new and exciting, it presents something that captures people's attention, but if it doesn't provide long-term value, it tends to go away. Just look back at the trends that ruled the '90s, for example. Those are now considered to be an archaic concept in the current climate.
Overly-processed Instagram photos. Especially in the context of makeup and skincare.
Deepfake technology is slowly creeping in to overtake that.
Load More Replies...I am constantly stunned that the younger people in my family find this "normal" and all I see are possibly disturbed, addicted, shallow (mostly women) processing and Filtering and lying about their looks to the point of bizarre freakishness. It's not healthy, and the type of "beauty" look they all try for is exactly what I'm sad to see society feeds into. Sexualizing of women and young girls, huge asses, huge boobs, faces like blow up sex dolls, unrealistic images and not much about personality, accomplishments, self esteem, strength, acceptance of yourself as a human being. I remember people yelling like mad about how skinny models used to be and the "heroin chic" look was so damaging and unrealistic, causing anorexia and bulimia and self harm among young girls. Yet..here we are, 1000 times worse, and it's somehow ok.
The worst part is that this should be much higher up. Like are there not enough sane people in this world any longer?
Load More Replies...Imagine people posting pictures WITH OUT make up!! Lol, that will never happen. it is just gonna get worse.
Awful... I don't have anything against people putting interesting random photos on instagram, but selfies are so boring.
That guy is sooo creepy. I really can't understand why he has a following.
Hopefully Facebook. I never thought it would kill myspace and MySpace reminds me of better times when I think of how sh*tty Facebook handled the last 4 years
Actually, a study was conducted to find out what children used what social media platforms today. The study asked 1,500 middle and high school students. 62 percent of teens said they use Instagram while 58 percent use Snapchat. (Texting was most popular, used by 98 percent of the teens surveyed.) Facebook was, surprisingly, only 7 percent. (This is not copy-and-pasted or plagiarized. I wrote this by myself.)
From what I'm hearing, no one under 30 uses facebook - which is concerning when you consider how many regional governments and agencies use it - and only - it to interact with local populations (town halls, polls, upcoming events, etc). It's almost like they don't want the input of those who have to inherit the mess they're making
Load More Replies...I have been a member of FB since around 2005ish. I used to be the type that would check it many times through out the day and would even get lost in the silly games. Aside from the jigsaw one, I just don't play them anymore. I think a lot of people are getting tired of the political side of it and it will just melt away in time. I think all social media is going to slowly go away in the future when people realize that there is so much more to do in the outside world. Especially since Covid has locked us all up for so long, the outside is looking pretty good.
We can only hope for a new and easy to navigate social media source run by actual humans and not bots that ban people for the most stupidest things and allow stuff like child porn and abuse to remain because it "doesn't go against their terms of service". I reported a video of a woman twerking naked, over a baby's face, while the baby was in a floor bassinet and they said it was fine.....did not remove it..... ffs. I recently used the F word and got a instant 30 day ban. Facebook is a COMPLETE joke and I can't wait for something better to come along.
Facebook is a 24/7/365 Blow Job with no money shot. F**k Facebook and the horse they rode in on. Ad f**k the twerp Zuckerberg
Current plastic surgery trends to meet the current IG standards. I fear for a lot of people who have had BBLs and facial surgery that the look will become outdated and permanently associated with late 2010’s and early 2020’s, kind of how like there are plastic surgery trends associated with the 90s/2000s.
I think it will still be popular, but I think things like butt implants and super huge lips are likely going to go by the wayside and look really dated like the OP said. It's hard to see people giving up wanting to look more youthful, slimmer, people stopping being self conscious about noses they think are too big, and all that. Those sorts of insecurities are pretty long standing. Feeling like you need a massive butt or cartoonishly large lips found nowhere in nature are more of a fad.
Load More Replies...In 200 years, they will dig up graves & find strange, non biodegradable sacs inside the coffins. (especially in LA!) People will not believe that women actually paid to get mutilated & have these things inserted into their chests, risking cancers, immune system disorders and all kinds of other health problems. This will be taught in history classes at school. It's actually insane if you think about it intelligently.
Why is your comment getting downvoted? You're right.
Load More Replies...I think plastic surgery will become much more popular and commonplace as the procedures continue to become more streamlined and accessible to the average populace. I can foresee walk-in clinics for a touch-up as needed, popping up in futuristic strip malls.
Remember that the original purpose of plastic surgery was to restore usability to very damaged faces. It'd be nice to get rid of every cause of severely damaged faces (war) but failing that, plastic surgery is good.
The overuse of acronyms. Is this an American thing? I have no idea what IG or BBL means and CBA Googling it lol!
Until we stop making beauty a standard to be a decent and likable human, it’ll never die.
Depends on what u use plastic surgery for. To look like lil Kim it’s maybe stupid but to go over battle scars or something else which is putting you down it can be really helpful.
YES THABK YPU I HOPE SO. I’m tired of photoshop too. It actually makes me realize how sick humans can be. Like, people are photoshopping bc they are afraid of what people will say. It’s society’s fault that we can’t be comfortable in our own skin.
Then there's a rule of 'what goes around comes around.' There are cases of trends and cool things that were popular before, got old and abandoned, and then resurfaced when we least expected it. Of course, the most obvious cases are centered in the fashion industry, but there are other things too, coming in a variety of categories, such as names or even those same internet trends.
Lip fillers.
Top Tip: For cheap lip fillers a wasp in a jar has the same effect- just keep your mouth shut after taking the lid off.
Seriously can someone explain to me why lips look like swollen fish lips
i think instead this should say bad, unnatural lip fillers because not all lip fillers are bad
what man would want to kiss that? you would slide off her face! Yuck!
Hopefully the stupid “hacks” that people are coming up with. That’s not a hack
Guys please do not support channels like 5-minute-crafts or so yummy. Some of their "hacks are dangerous and NOT suitable for anyone, especially children.
Honestly I like seeing how horrible they are. But I do not like anything or do a hack.
Is that a pan of eggs in it with string under it all? What hack is this and how is it a hack?
I love crafts, like making jewelry out of soda tabs. But anything from Troom Troom or 5 min crafts are just trash.
People posting pictures of a PS5 they just bought and expecting the rest of us to care.
Sure, but instead of PS5 pictures, they'll be posting photos of their PS7 neural implants
can't wait go get mine(ps7 neural implants, but ps5 would be nice in the meantime)
Load More Replies......I'm sorry! I had to! I just got it yesterday 20210326_1...91fef5.jpg
It's because there's been a shortage, making the console more "valuable", as it's rare to obtain. However, in 5 years, usually the prices of these products do drop. The focus shifts more onto the games themselves instead, which is good in my opinion. Games are art. Anyway, I'll get mine too, but I don't hurry. I'm a bit busy to play video games anyway, and both Final Fantasy 16 and FF7 Remake 2 are still far away anyway.
I am also puzzled as to why "unboxing" videos are popular. Are people that terrified of products they order that they want to see how it's done, be assured it will be what they ordered and it's so fascinating it's worth making a 10 minute video on?
Yeah.... I think Sony pushed the hype too far with one (or more) too many product releases. Hell, I remember them back 20+ years.
Youtube prank videos
Well some youtube videos in general.
NUKING JAPAN prank video Among Us! (NOT CLICKBAIT) (GONE WRONG) (ALMOST DIED)
Some pranks are horrible, mean spirited, and should result in jail time. I think the pranks where the participants had signed up for it in some way are fine, so long as the pranksters are professionals and are very careful. I really hate the ones where people torment minimum wage workers for a laugh.
OMG also fb prank videos I can't stend them, they are mostly fake, featuring some hot, but stupid chick.
stop the fakeness. nobody wants to watch a written scene
They're like... Halloween PRANK (even though it's not halloween) GONE WRONG!!!
Vaping, I hope.
I quit smoking after 35 years and vaping is what got me there. For 3 + years I have been cigarette free. I vape regularly and use the fruit-flavored juices (nicotine or not -- doesn't matter). Morning coughing is no more and I, my car, my clothing etc. smell perfectly fine. In fact, I now gag at the smell of a smoker (their clothing and accoutrements) and the realization of how difficult I made life for my children when they went to school or friend's homes smelling like cigarette smoke absolutely breaks my heart. There is absolutely no comparison between the smell of a vape user and a cigarette or tobacco smoker.
Load More Replies...I am currently trying vaping. I have smoked for 32 years, it is one of the only things that seem to be helping me give up. Not all of us are vaping to be douches some of us are actually trying to do our best to kick a habit stronger than heroin.
Made the switch about 10 years ago. Vaping tastes better, smells better... I'm never going back!
Load More Replies...People who hate vaping have clearly never been addicted to cigarettes and have no idea how difficult it is to quit. Vaping has helped so many people cut down on/quit cigarettes, and tapering down nicotine strengths of vape juices often helps people to quit nicotine all together. Although it's still not good for you, mostly all vape juice brands contain far fewer chemicals than cigarettes. Changing coils frequently also helps.
Vaping is better than smoking. Sure, there are obnoxious vapers who like blowing huge clouds...But they are the minority. Most are people who can't quit nicotine, but have quit smoking it.
I'm sure we don't know the sideffects of vaping yet.. I believe there will be many studies in the future that will prove that it might be the same with smoking if not worse... there are a lot of chemicals inside and some doctors already see the results... don't forget that cigarettes where considered healthy when they first came out!
Load More Replies...I prefer this to getting hit with a cloud of tobacco walking down the street
I am much for vaping because it has really reduced the smoking, which is extremely hazardous for everyone, not just the smoker.
i haven't vaped or smoked weed in like 3 months. that's pretty good i think...i dunno...im only 16 so i think it's good for me
Daenerys and Khaleesi as girls names.
It's from Game of Thrones. Khal/Khaleesi basically mean 'king/queen' in the language of the Dothraki tribes, which are more or less just a fantasized version of the Mongols. For comparison, the Mongols used Khan/Khatun.
Load More Replies...I think Khaleesi is a pretty name, it's unfortunate it was in Game of Thrones haha
Any name from Game of Thrones, in 45 years, will be the ones people say, "Yeah, I know, cringey, right?"
Just remember: an unusual name does not make your child special/smarter/more memorable. Don't let me know right off the bat that you are a idiotic parent by just telling me your kid's name.
Zoom calls. I don’t wanna go back to the office, but I can’t take five more years of these..
I prefer them to spending 3 hours commuting every day, but I'm used to doing a fair amount by teleconferencing since I work with people in different places. So it's not like that's going away when our offices reopen. I think the idea that everyone has to have cameras on all the time needs to stop. My company doesn't do that. My friends that always have to be on video HATE it.
I have a couple of friends that I FaceTime with and one of them likes to do audio-only—as do I—but the other always wants video. For the couple that does the video, I tend to show less and less of my face as our time on FT goes one, until one of them says “Mary Rose, we can’t see you!”. Sigh!
Load More Replies...Can you hear me? You're breaking up, Tom. You're muted Marge. Marge! You are muted. muted! Did Harry run off to the bathroom again?
As someone who is painfully shy and just started at a new job in August, but working remotely, Zoom was a great way to meet my co-workers without feeling super awkward.
We almost never turn on our cams at work. I still fix my hair and put on makeup though, just in case. :D
I'm pro Zoom! I don't want to go back into an overheated conference room, making small talk before the meeting gets going, or having other technical difficulties like phone or projector issues.
got news for you, PEBKAC happens even more with zoom. ("I am not a cat. I just have to say that.")
Load More Replies...Honestly, I would gladly go to zoom calls instead of class. Class is scary because everyone can see every move that you make and thus make judgements off of your body language. Besides, I like being able to privately chat to the teacher ‘hey, yeah, you’re teaching a class of kindergarteners’ instead of keeping the thought forever in my head. Besides-besides, I mean, I don’t like talking to people.
5 day work week
If the 5-day work work does fade, I hope it is replaced by options that can be tailored to the needs of the employee and their family or current situation. That might be longer but fewer days, shorter but more days etc. Equalizing the needs of the business with the needs of the employee would be most ideal.
It's already gone. Most people can't afford to live so now have to work at least ONE of the weekend days. Of course, lots of people have shifts that change week to week so their 'weekend' could be in the middle of the week, sucking all the joy out of their time off..
In the 90s I worked at a family-run video store and when the owner finally made me a full-time employee, I was given a split-week schedule, which I came to really love. I would spend my Wednesday off going to the movies (which my boss reimbursed me for because regular customers really appreciated my movie knowledge and my ability to articulate what the strengths and weaknesses of the films) and my Saturdays off staying at home and decompressing after dealing with rude and obnoxious customers all the other days. (The R&O customers were a small subset numerically, but were a big portion psychically.)
Load More Replies...The 40 hour workweek. Let's work fewer hours and slice it however.
Yeah the users here arent realising that this post doesnt mean working more hours less days (4d 10h) it means working less than 40h a week. For example 32.
Load More Replies...Mama Panda doesn't realize six day work weeks were how the world operated in our not too distant past.
depend of your job. for desk job you can do 10 to 12 hours shift for 3-4 day a week. but for call center that is not possible
I worked at a place that did four 10-hour shifts, and that ROCKED! Three-day weekends every week!

Everything Supreme. The s***** print text hoodies, the overpriced hats and $100 Tshirts, all of it
but how else are mega church pastors gonna show their church how much they waste their money on stupid stuff for themselves!?
Dude, why do people like the obnoxiously colorful hoodies with terribly large/horribly stylized text on em? WHAT THE CABBAGE!
I only found out about this supreme brand coz of that pastors with overpriced stuff post. So I've seen zero marketing, and if I'd come across a tshirt/beachball/hoodie like that I'd have thought it was cheap corporate promotional gear.
F all so called luxury brands, its just another way to make your average person feel poor.
Corporations trying to be weird and relatable on Twitter. Wish it would die out now
I tried the McDonald's chicken sandwich and it's nowhere close to Chick-Fil-A's.
Yeah. It’s like that corporate art style that feels all wrong. They tried to take a mishmash of different art styles and mashed it all into one, making it an absolute nightmare to behold. For those of you who don’t know, watch the grub hub ad or something, and you’ll see what I mean.
Brazilian Butt Lifts .. I feel like it will not age well. A lot of plastic surgeries collapse over time or have complications as it degrades
Women do way more body alteration than men. I wanna see some penile enlargement surgeries become popular 😊
Because we are scared! It took me 8 years to build up the courage to go under the knife and it was one of the best decisions I ever made! At first I was happy with the reputation that came with my penis but actually living with it was horrific! I felt like a freak with an abnormality. It was all anyone talked about, and a practical sex life was non-existent. Women would hear about it and hound me to see it or sleep with them. When I entered a long term relationship it was established quite early on that a 'normal' sex life was not going to happen. We agreed I would be happier with a reduction, regardless of how our relationship went, but it took 8 years before I did anything about it! This illogical fear about anything hurting our genitals will be men's undoing!
Load More Replies...Look at the Kartrashians, walking around with gigantic saggy butts. Looks like a giant cauliflower on a hobbit.
They have the highest mortality rate of all plastic surgeries. It just seems so ridiculous to go to such lengths to do that to yourself. I feel very sorry for the people who have such low self worth they feel that they need to do that to feel better about themselves
Oh, i've heard of it, and it's awful, as well as super dangerous. You have to gain a crap ton of weight in a very short period of time, then they take the fat out of your body, and inject it into your behind. If it goes wrong or isn't done properly, it can be fatal.

As I write for influencers, some youtubers spread useful informations that unfortunately you would have problems finding elsewhere. I find youtube a very useful font of knoledge (if you use it well, sure).
I like to subscribe to science channels because my science knowledge is poor.
Load More Replies...You Tube is really good if you stay away from the really popular YTers, the right wing fascists, and the conspiracy theorists.
There are lots of great science channels, and I’m deeply fond of a couple of late-night talk show hosts.
Load More Replies..."Influencers" and others with no skills beyond their face should be pushed out. But there are many who have great skills and are happy to share them. I love to watch them and hope that youngsters will catch on to hobbies and skills that might benefit them later in life. The variety of content available on YouTube is immeasurable in incomparable to TV or any other streaming service. It appeals to individuals of all ages, races, nationalities etc etc. I hope it is here to stay.

Instagram is going to be an online shopping mall, far removed from the cool micro-blogging site it used to be.
I'm on Facebook just to keep in touch with friends and relatives with whom I wouldn't otherwise have contact. I only did this 2 years ago. I've never had interest in social media in which complete strangers bore everyone with the trivia of their lives.
There are actually a ton of artists and artisans on insta and lots of bloggers have moved over there. It's still vital, but it's invaded by ads and tiktok crap.

Subscribing to multiple streaming platforms.
whats so 'cool' about subscribing to stuff i dont get this one?
This seems like a weird one? Its following the content creators you like and helping them grow.
It's confusing that the YT button was used as picture - I think the message is that subscribing to Netflix, amazon Prime, Disney+, Hulu and what else should vanish
Well, it helps these people make a living... I don't see whats wrong with helping (good) people grow
I know right! Why can't they just combine them so you get it all for one price Oh...wait...that's cable! Vicious cycle.
I am way past tired of trying to look at a video and being bugged to subscribe before I even get to start seeing it. Tired of trying to read articles online only to have the actual area of text be a tiny section because they rest of the screen is jammed with the icons of every single social platform. Also tired of everything I want to look at seems to be "owned" by Pinterest now so even if it's public content as soon as it's Pinned that's all the search engines send you to and you have to sign up for an account to view it. This is hijacking public content. They won't even tell you the original site, so the people who took the time and trouble to make it are losing hits and viewers because Pinterest decided they own it.

The bowl cut. For some reason it came back in south Houston. Looks ridiculous.
Now they can also look like Moe from the Three Stooges. moe-605fa2...e50e0c.jpg
Bowl cuts have been around for centuries though. And I doubt anyone thinks they're "cool" they're just practical especially for low-income people.
Alexa
I can control my thermostat and bathroom lights with it. My wife is in a wheel chair so its a huge help for her.
Domotics are useful when applied to such, not when you get home and say "Alexia, turn on the lights", then you spend 30 minutes arguing with technical support about how Alexa didn't work because you yelled "Alexia", and how is it possible for smart lamps to work when turned off ( also disconnected from wifi)
Load More Replies...I hate how all the radio station advertisements include it. Tell your robot to play our music! I'm...already listening, I don't need to do that.The worst is ads where they get her to tell jokes or say mean things. Like, can you not afford humans? This isn't witty banter, I know you wrote everything it's saying, is the joke supposed to be how lonely you are? You have to have a robot insult you to seem interesting?
I stopped listening to the radio because the ads made me completely nutso. I loved it when Pandora became a thing because I got to learn a lot of new music and musical artists without commercials. Plus, you mold it to your preferences, so after three thumbs down, I never had to listen to Bob Dylan’s horrible nasally voice ever again. *Great* songwriter, sh!t singer.

Funko Pops. They're the Beanie Babies of the '20s.
The 20s?? The last time I heard anyone refer to 'the 20s' they were talking about the 1920s. This is what OLD feels like, ouch!!!
FUNKO POPS! THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS! I COLLECT FUNKO POPS ALL THE TIME WHAT THE HECK! I WILL TAKE YOU TO MY LAWYER, YOU ARE GETTING SUED FOR HAVING AN OPINION! WhAt ThE hEcK dUdE! (This was a joking over reaction, But I really hope funko pops stay cool because I got some exspensive ones.)
Galaxy print is probably going to go the way of the bowling alley carpet patterns we used to wear on our clothes in the 90s. It'll come back ironically in 10 years
We loved this sketch so much that when our kids have to get dressed for bed we sing a modified version hahaha
Load More Replies...'Galaxy' now being an acceptable answer to 'what's your favourite colour?' is infuriating
I'm okay with it coming back. I used to wear galaxy print Converse all the time in middle school. I still have them... they just don't fit me.
Hey, don’t use frog as a substitute swear word...they’re imperiled enough as it is. But there’s no shortage of forks!
Load More Replies...with no twitter, hopefully cancel culture will disappear as well.
Twitter and the users' strange desire to cancel every large content creator using made-up proof of something they never did.
nothing but boring s**t on twitter. Had an acount for about 6 months. Deactivated it due to lack of interest
I don't really have anything against Twitter. I just don't like the people trying to cancel creators using made-up evidence and the toxic stans. I see at least 10 people trying to cancel people like Dream, GeorgeNotFound, TommyInnit every day by using photoshopped tweets from them and old clips of them saying slurs they now condemn. It's annoying. Give them a break.
Agree to disagree. Depending on what you look at on Twitter it's good or bad (every social media platform) and there are some great wholesome people there that just want to connect with the world.
Trump ruined it. Now when I think of Twitter, I immediately see the image of an enraged Orangatang pushing random phone buttons. (Sorry to all the actual Orangatangs. Nothing personal)
Hopefully Pokemon Cards, so I can finally afford to buy them again ...
McDonald’s in Germany is currently giving 3 pokemon cards with every happy meal lol. Gotta collect them all!
These were popular when I was my son's age. I think it's more of an age thing then a trend.
YOU BETTER NOT- I HAVE LEGENDARY,MYTHICS, EX,GX,V, AND ULTRA BEASTS THEY WILL BE WORTHLESS IF THEY DIE OUT
i used to be ADDICTED to pokemon then someone stole all my good cards :(
Facebook. Kids don’t use that s***, because it sucks. millennials are leaving in droves.
Facebook died when boomers were able to join. They keep the negativity and fake news going. It’s so sad how many of my friends parents or grandparents rely on a meme as a news source. The recent election was enough for me. I don’t use it anymore except for messenger
This boomer never joined—I’d rather have a few real friends than a lot of “friends”
Load More Replies...Facebook isn't going anywhere. Nearly 3 billion subscribers - which is insane. And the business model is too profitable. Shallow idiots breed more shallow idiots - there will always be enough on planet earth to sustain it for decades
How many of those are defunct, bots, trolls, propagandists, secondary accounts, or commercial accounts? most, I'll wager.
Load More Replies...I don't understand how FB and Instagram are different. You can post memes and stupid political garbage on both of them. And they're both full of ads.
Kids are not millenials, unless you're my age, then millenials are kids. My daughter, 23, is Gen Z and there's probably another one since them
b-but i'm 14 and I like to use it :( It's like the only social media i can have, alongside tik tok ofc (although I've had tik tok or musical.ly since 2014)
Never joined, never will and don't let my son on there either. Kids get terrible bullying on Facebook.
Sorry. I hope it will stay. There are my memories. Grandmothers also need their platform.
Don't put all of us "Boomers" into the class of using Facebook! I absolutely HATE social media of every ilk, and that one was the worst! I will not use any of them, especially that! Zuckerberg doesn't need another penny from it, it can be shut down this second, but I'd sure hate to see his employees all lose their jobs.
GTA V
Hopefully by that point we'll actually have GTA 6
Its like Fallout New Vegas no amount of mods will make the game prettier or have the quality of content that Rockstar produces. Its like putting lipstick on a pig.
gta v will still be trending when gta 6 come out
Load More Replies...Filling wooden furniture with translucent green or blue-colored resin.
This person must have seen some very bad resin furniture because I've seen some beautiful furniture come out of it.
for every not-ugly piece, there's hundreds of ugly ones, dozens of which are absolute trash.
Load More Replies...You've never seen a "river" table? Goole it, very pretty.
Load More Replies...No, well made river tables are really quite nice. They have just been copied/reacted to/stolen from real artists who work with resin so much that, now, a ton of people hate it.
Load More Replies...That's just a tiktok trend copied from artists. I think the actual furniture might mainstream later than sooner.
Oh, man, when it's made to look like a river with a waterfall---GORGEOUS! I just saw a dining table today with a wide black resin band between the beautiful walnut slabs. Truly spectacular table, very well designed and made!
Fake vents in cars, if they were ever cool in the first place.
I wonder if the poster is talking about the one with that little wheel next to it, and he doesn't know he has to turn it to get air. ;D
Load More Replies...Let's throw in aerodynamically pointless air dams and rear-deck air foils while we're at it. Dude, you just ain't driving that fast.
I love seeing spoilers on really slow cars it makes me smile :) oh no we are going 10 mph better put a spoiler on so we don't lift off XD
Load More Replies..."Fake vents" have been around since the 1940's ... thanks Buick ...
And the muscle cars everyone holds up as examples were full of them, too. I'm looking at you Mopar...

I would say Minecraft but trying to kill that is like trying to invade Russia in winter
Yeah, it's currently my fav game and it's been very popular for years. I don't think it'll ever die out-
Do you think Sonic or Mario will ever die out? Just curious
Load More Replies...You know what should be killed? Raid: Shadow Legends. Burn it like you're Hispanic Stalin.
From what I have seen and heard, it promotes creativity with younger folks and some people have done incredible things.
It's been my favorite game for years, and I could go on a rant about its greatness but I think you get the point
Minecraft can do no wrong as far as I’m concerned. It kept my son sane in lockdown. Although it is responsible for me deluding myself that he’s going to be an architect.
The obsession of having RGB LED everywhere and on everything.
Better than the trend of putting bright blue LED's on everything that started when blue LED's were new and for some reason it's still going. I'd much rather have adjustable RGB than be stuck with the bright blue flashing LED on my charger lighting up my bedroom ceiling.

Among Us
I've been playing that since it came out in 2018 tho and I'm not bored of it
I admit I enjoy watching funny plays and playing myself still, but I am kind of glad that the intense hype is over.
Me too. It was annoying having to constantly hear about it.

Teenage boys getting the perm/undercut combo.
This hairstyle has been recycled over the years. It will disappear and then reappear just when you forgot all about it.
My brother wanted this last year. I think he still does lol. What's so bad about it?
I feel like it only looks good on women, but that is my opinion as a gay woman, lol.
coloured bangs
It looks good on the queer kiwi, but that's the only place I've seen them
Okayyyy...But you can't tell me it doesn't look good on Niki Nihachu (NIKI MY BELOVED) EpynaabXcA...c9e85f.jpg
Ah yes, I too love dipping my bangs into the melted metal of my pendant
Load More Replies...Most girls/women are not doing themselves any favors by having bangs, no matter the colour. On beautiful women, they just hide the natural structure of a beautiful face. On homely women they just highlight the feature they want to hide, usually their nose.
Glaciers. It is estimated that Earth is losing roughly 1.2 trillion tons of ice per year. Throughout the 1990s, ice loss was about 760 billions tons per year.
Glaciers are cool, but warming up and dissapearing.
Load More Replies...So glaciers won’t be cool. I think this person took the headline too literally 😂
The National Park Service has quietly removed all the signs put up by the Obama administration that told visitors that the glaciers would “all be gone” by the year 2020 due to global warming… because… it’s 2019, and the glaciers are all still there and have been growing.
Sorry to disappoint you, but you could warm up Antarctica by 100 degrees for 10,000 years and not make a dent in its glaciers. At its current rate (you're off by a factor of four), it would take 100,000 years to melt, but that rate would slow enormously as you, you know, start reacing the antactic circle, it gets harder and harder to melt. (Average annual temperature where the ice is melting from now: 40 degrees F... Average temperate in the larger of Antarctica: -100 F.
??? Glaciers? I want them cold, thanks. Realllllly cold. So they don't vanish?
Good hivvens! Where shall I get the ice for my drinkie-poo? Stirred, not shaken, Jeeves. Unlike that poser James Bond, I don't like my martini watered down.
Netflix, given that the content keeps merely developing and other providers creating their own platforms. Already feel often bored zapping through the program.
But I love Netflix. It's where I'll be able to watch the next season of Beastars lol-
The only thing I don't like is 90% of their suggestions I've already seen.
Yeah, their content is getting worse, but currently its still pretty good, but in 5 years it probably won't be good anymore
Netflix provides a lot of shows from other countries though, so I really like that.
Netflix is the online place I've been able to find audio description on all of their original content.

I just looked at the title of this post, all I can think of is "please let it be the Kardashians". Then my second thought was, "Wait, that means there might be five more years of the Kardashians".
I would like to see labeling people gone. No more labels or putting people into cubby holes to fit your agenda. People are people period. No more race labels, no more gender labels, no more sexual partner labels, no more religious labels, no more income bracket labels, no more age labels, no more intelligence labels, just no more! We love each other just for what we are and who we are. No judgements only love!
