I hate that everything is integrated.
I don't want to watch YouTube or Hulu on my TV, and I don't want to watch TV on my computer. I don't want to use my Facebook account to log into eBay or log into my Twitter account to make a grilled cheese sandwich.
Smartphones are good, but there shouldn't be an app for wiping your ass or anything.

I could go on about the increasing attachment to phones, social media, etc. But for now, I'll just leave three letters: B... A... E.

Excessive PC. Of course, don't be racist, sexist, homophobic, or in any other way shape or form discriminating against others. But is there really a need to neuter everything? E.g. using the term "holidays" instead of "Christmas" because non-christians might be offended. Over here a few years ago there was even a discussion if some of the figures on emergency exit signs should have ponytails and be wearing skirts. It has really taken ridiculous forms.

I'm not a fan of excessive assholism from people that try to tell the rest of the world that they're too PC.

Lack of work ethic. No motivation. Entitlement.

Lack of work ethic. No motivation. Entitlement. I can't like this enough. And they still expect a pat on the back. For what? Doing what you're expected to do?!

How social media has made everything a black and white issue. There are no gray areas. If you're not totally 100% on one side, you *must* be on the other. It's causing equality to become a zero-sum game. Tumblr is probably the most guilty of this. It also results in online bullying festering because they don't have the same views as you, or doxing.

"Bring back the Attitude Era!" Um, hello, you do realize you're asking for more Vince Russo booking? (might be better than the watered down Russo booking the WWE continues to use, but...)
Remaking movies and Broadway shows just being adaptions of movies and TV shows.

While I am guilty of the cellphone thing, I won't lie it is stupid how people these days can't go a few minutes without this. One thing that I will say is that when I use my phone, it's mostly to look up articles or forum threads to read stuff. It's like how I saw an episode of "Girl Meets World" how the main character wouldn't know how to talk to a guy to his face but would rather text message him.

The excess online approval seeking, where people are so desperate for some positive affirmation they either make up stories for Tumblr/Reddit, humblebrag on Facebook, or do message board posts so blatantly designed to get likes they might as well like their own posts just to remove any doubt as to how pathetically badly they want this minuscule stamp of approval from others.

I see what you did there.

Literally, somebody in my work place said that they should be promoted because they "show up". Really? You show up to work on your scheduled day when everybody is expecting you to. That is simply unheard of, here's a cookie.
