40 Trends Doomed To Lose Popularity In 5 Years, According To People In This Online Community

That is already happening, I think. I've noticed a growing backlash in recent months.

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.

Were they ever?

"Influencers" don't know s**t and should NOT be listened to. C'mon people!!! Listen to your own minds!!! If you don't have a mind, then listen to "influencers" and be deluded like the rest of the ignorant masses....

Soon these a**holes will have to get a job

Couldn't agree more

Same

it's a dream!!!

Are they cool or are ppl naive

Not everyone can be famous, so eventually they won't be special anymore.

I don't think they'll ever be truly gone. They might change names, but they'll stick around.

Positive thing about influencers is that they generally don't look for actual jobs, giving other people more opportunities for getting jobs.

No such thing. It's more like people copying others. People your own self and not copying others. These days all women wear is skin tight jeans or leggings. They all look the same

They have such popularity because most peoples lives are empty, fake and sad so they cling to these professional freeloaders.

I guess the current ones will probably already be 'old folks' to the new kids coming up, there'll probably be more in the pipeline for a while until the whole idea becomes dated. But, there have been screen idols for a good few decades now, so don't hold your breath

Influencers make me dry heave. As if taking pictures of yourself living your best life and throwing it in others faces can be considered a "full time job" which they will tell you if you ask them what they do for work. It is lazy, eye rolling self promotion.

One can only hope

I don't even acknowledge their existence.

🤮

I'm going to keep saying it. Influencers are just the new (cheaper) form of advertising. Until they stop making money off influencers, companies are going to keep using them. If you don't want an influencer to exist, don't follow them.

Crossing my fingers...

Yes, please.

I hope

Yes

I think that influencers could be useful. Luckily there are influencers that search to point out real problems, and show beneficial, rational and sustainable solutions for our lifestyle. I think about Bindi and Robert Irwin (the daughter and the son of the late Steve Irwin, the Australian naturalist) that use their popularity to continue their parents mission on preserving the wildlife. These type of influencers, that search to spread positive and useful messages are usually less popular that the one that brag about their lifestile and that make money only with marketing of useless product. For me the problem is not influencers (that can be useful as I said), but the celebration of people that don't add value with their contents and that search to manipulate their followers only to make themselves richer.

Although I do like those spreading positive body image, it is helping so many people with eating disorders and BDD

This needs to be higher up

I hate them so much! They make me gag.

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.

Slugs having a Mexican stand-off.

XD!!!

Somehow I doubt it.

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.)

i feel like plastic surgery will get more popular

going strong

Nnnnoooooooooo five minute crafts is my liffeeeeee

so true

Vaping helped many people stop smoking. And I´ll take strawberry milkshake over tobacco smell any time.

I never understood khaleesi

Yeeeees! I agree

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.

fk supreme

Yes! It's just embarrassing.

I am so out of the loop. Not surprised.

I think influence's and you tuber's individual popularity may ebb and flow over time, much like that of TV personalities and movie stars. Though I do think the industry is here to stay, until the medium is replaced by something else.

This is sad, actually.

The latest iPhone will goes out of style every 5 months. They make new versions all the time.

whats so 'cool' about subscribing to stuff i dont get this one?

Sometimes it does look stupid!!!

"Alexa, die please"

It's a terrible haircut.

I say this as a collector, but I could see that but since they've been on the rise for ten years, I'll be generous & give them another 10 and then they're passé as 'popular'. After all, even beanie babies are still around, sure not a fad anymore but around is around.

Space Pants!

ugh, frog twitter.

McDonald’s in Germany is currently giving 3 pokemon cards with every happy meal lol. Gotta collect them all!
