Ih8Hondas: I have absolutely no idea how they've sold a single one. They're ugly as s**t and they are garbage as an actual truck.

To find out how this conversation started in the first place, we reached out to Reddit user Routine-Award-3382, who posed the question, "What's popular right now that you have zero interest in?”
They were kind enough to have a chat with Bored Panda, revealing that they always see people follow trends, but recently, they stopped caring about what is popular. "Don't get me wrong, I like a lot of popular things, but there is just so much out there that bores me. So I was curious if anyone felt the same way," the OP explained.

We were also curious about some of the popular things that Routine-Award-3382 couldn't care less about. "Donald Trump, politics overall, trendy clothing, [and] liking stuff just because it is retro," they said.
But why do so many people care about these things? "I think most people just want to be part of the popular crowd. A lot of people weren't popular growing up, and this may be the only way they can be," the author explained. "I think it is a little bit of wanting to and being obligated to like these things. People don't wanna be left behind, and people always want to be a part of something."

Finally, we asked the OP what they thought of the replies to their post. "I was surprised when so many people responded. It was hard to read them all, but at this moment, it's over 12,000 responses. It actually made me feel popular!" they said with a laugh.
"Most of the answers were what I expected from politics to certain music artists, and more. I think what stood out to me the most was when people said they have no idea what is popular right now," the author continued. "I totally get that, but at the same time, how can you not? Especially when there is so much content coming at us from all directions."

DramaticBucket: My colleague gets botox in 4 different parts of his face apparently and told me I need to start preventative botox before I hit thirty so I won't get wrinkles. I thought it was a him thing but turns out half of my coworkers under 45 are getting it? Why are people suddenly so afraid of looking slightly older? You're going to age anyway! My dad says looking older is the best thing about aging because random people will help you if you're confused instead of giving you the side eye.

honorificabilidude: I used to have twitter for checking real time events like a fires or traffic jams. It’s useless now that people don’t use it except to boast or complain.

Of note, that's specifically "Generative AI", I'm all for the stuff that actually makes life better. It's sad that at this point most people don't even realize there's a difference. That's pure dystopia in a nutshell.

I think there are lots of companies trying to sell you the idea that you're damaged. You need therapy, you need calming candles, you need to self-care to the extreme. Yes we should all take care of our mental health, but I have no interest in companies trying to convince me that I'm a delicate flower that needs to spend my way to wellbeing.
