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.”
Not wearing a seatbelt and not wearing a helmet.
The outside of a space station in sunlight (~121° C or ~250° F)
Contrarianism. Being anti-“Popular Thing” just for the sake of being anti-“Popular Thing” marks you out as having no thoughts worth hearing out.
As somebody who was anti for a loooong time, 100% this. It’s a bad mindset, and it affects your wellbeing.
Being part of a marginalized or oppressed group.
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.
Branded clothes. Why are you a walking advertisement because rappers who get paid big money to tell you that looks cool tell you to wear it? It’s all ugly anyway.
Having a car, working at some notable brand company.
Bragging.
I hate having a car. I think it’s stupid and unnecessarily expensive.
Slam!

I honestly think sad one night stands. I don’t care what people do with their sex lives, it’s not my affair, but I think those just cause depression.
Loudly and intrusively hating things that other people like.
If someone likes a terrible show or movie or musician or whatever else… just let them like their thing.

Don’t yuck other people’s yums.
