MODERATORS
Being able to identify adult videos/actresses on sight. Like, multiple. I can understand someone having a favorite or something, but some people are like walking porn IMDBs.
Not sure who thinks this is cool but, yeah, that's not a convo I'm jumping in on.
War.
illicit drug culture.
Being part of a marginalized or oppressed group.
Am a member of 3. Can confirm it's shit.
Not wearing a seatbelt and not wearing a helmet.
My pet peeve is people cycling with a helmet but not doing it up. It's so blatantly stupid- you get none of the benefits, and all of the negatives.
Vaping/smoking.
Loud cars. So fucking lame.
And loud motorcycles.
And the ice cream truck playing jingles. I am not a fan of people driving trucks into neighbourhoods and playing loud music to advertise.
Another reason to look forward to electric vehicles! Imagine a world 20 years from now where the noise is vanishing, the gasoline/deisel smell is only for the diehards going to that one remaining service station that still sells it, no more visible emissions from cars or rolling coal!
Or motorcycles in the city.
Or motorcycles in the street in front of your house/apartment. It's so fucking annoying.
The resonator on my old car blew out and sounded obnoxiously loud for like a month, I felt like such a dork commuting it to work. I genuinely felt so happy to have it quietened again.

Calling yourself "Alpha". If you have to say it out loud, you are definitely not the Alpha.

I’m gonna sound like a boomer but cigarettes and not using PPE, including with recreational activities such as motorcycling and hobby crafts.
Becoming a meat crayon isn’t worth “looking cool.”

Cryptocurrency and AI
I've got a close elderly family member who's recently gotten fixated on investing in crypto, watching all the YouTube videos on the subject.
I don't know enough about it to confidently say they're going to lose all their money, I've never looked into it because it just screams get rich quick scheme, but I don't have high hopes for them.

It happened to my relative. They didn't lose everything, but they lost enough that they're shopping for a mobile home for retirement, when they previously could have bought a small house.
I put $50 out of random paychecks into BTC.
It’s done pretty well and I’ve bought a few toys with the profits.
Monero and LTC are pretty cool. I don't care about the scam/meme coins. AI is also super useful if you're using it correctly.
I like monero. Privacy is important and there really isn't another way to pay online anonymously.
I wish there was an easier way to do it though and more places accepted it.
Its super easy to exchange if you have another currency. I'm using eXch. No KYC and they have a 0.5% fee.
