Thank you to @Farnsworth for this idea! I appreciate it!

What popular things do you hate? Crocs, socks with sandals, a parent who hates Caillou? What have you got?

I hate when people say “and go!”

Parents who never taught their children how to behave in public places like restaurants, such as not screaming every word at the top of their lungs or running around like a Tasmanian devil.

That’s another one. Kids with no manners in public. Their parents are usually the exact same. It’s not that hard to teach your kids to say thank you.

This made me think of our old neighbor. One day I told her our daughter got into Puppy Dog Pals, and she was like "Oh Bob, that guy is so useless. He makes everything so dramatic and could just take care of most of it himself! I can't stand him"

Facebook.

It's nothing more than a forum for people to pretend how perfect their lives are, to send stupid pictures of their lower legs and feet in some kind of beach setting, to b*tch about politics, and to brag about their kids.

I wonder if she ever watched Paw Patrol, and encountered mayor goodway. She’s obsessed with a chicken, and so inept that some dogs have to do all of her mayoral duties for her.

Or Dora whose parents let her wander around with a talking monkey in the jungle and no other guide. Or Peppa Pig whose parents just are MIA. Bluey appears not only to be the gold standard of cartoon anthropomorphic parents - they may be the only active ones.

I'm 100% convinced that Thomas the train and the Island of Sodor are a giant drug smuggling operation and Sir Topham Hatt is a cartel kingpin.

- Excessive amounts of water bottles and coffee cups. You need one. Not 756 of them.
- Poor gas station customer service
- Shower curtain rings that get caught. Whoever came up with some of the designs needs to burn in hell.
- Improper use of workplace bathrooms.
- Improper use of the workplace microwaves. Burn popcorn/cook fish = immediate termination

Men's white soled dress shoes. I'm fine with people wearing them and dudes look fine wearing them, but it's not my style. I had to stand up for myself when my wife wanted to get me a pair.

Bluey is hands down the best kids show I've watched. I've actually started using some of the phrases and sayings in my everyday vocab.

Men who wear white framed sunglasses. I'm sorry, it just looks ridiculous to me. On girls/women it's a situational call. But on men - always a horrible look.

Edit: Not a fan of tats and facial hair.... either gender.

Not exactly sure.

How about the looney tunes mom who lets porky pig walk around with only a Tshirt so his junk is hanging out there? He is going to be on the predator list by 10.
