And by pissing you off, I don't mean to the point of rage, but more of a mind numbing disbelief.


Here's some examples.


The beta male culture: bronies, fedoras, etc.

Fat apologist/fat empowerment

Feminists


It's gotta be the fat power movement for me, and this is coming from someone that needs to lose 10-15 lbs. It's a terrifying indictment of our country that these people think that people should change their opinions on fat disgusting people rather than them get off their lazy asses.


Feel free to add your own.

The lack of sympathy in the general public.

And similarly, the loss of the ability to empathize.

Projecting your own values and standards onto others in terms of success and culture.

So Hipsters?

Their self-importance is a little grating no doubt. Male or Female.

A big problem is our fake food supply and work to live lifestyle that makes it hard for people to stay in shape, especially when their job requires no physical movement.

It's the culture and everything about it, not just laziness.

Genes are screwed up too because we've been reproducing in such an incorrect way.

That doesn't make their pasty jelly roles any more beautiful.

I don't get the relevance of your response.

I hate the fats.

But it's important to recognize what is actually happening and why it's happening.

Potheads being outspoken
People being on smartphones all the time
Over-suburbanization/complete de-urbanization
Too many people going to college

I think the brony culture is definitely losing ground... I haven't heard about it in about a year so you might be getting your wish

As far as the bronie thing goes, I have see one or two pics of the female pony where i could see being able to get one out looking at the picture if you were in a bind.

Only like 2 though and I am pretty sure she was on the cover of Pony version Playboy so she was probably like an OT 9

Yeah, they should shut up and let an unjust law that exists to protect big industry remain unjust.

I know why our weight problems in this country exist, and fat people don't really bother me by just being fat (to a degree), it's when they so desperately project their beliefs that I should still view them as beautiful when they have no desire to change their habits where I get angry.

Agree on all, especially the first two, which are appalling.

I'd also add in this widespread obsession with fame and ego/self-centricity born out of it. If you need an example, just peruse your Facebook news feed and count the sheer number of inane updates ("brushing my teeth, about to head off to bed!") made by people who seem to believe others care about their daily habits. We've become abhorrently self-obsessed.

1: Feminists, even other feminists don't like them.

2: Fat people. No, you aren't big boned. You're fat and it's going to kill you. Eat a salad, buy a treadmill and have some goddamn self-respect. You probably can't even wipe your own arse anymore. Jesus.

3: College chicks wearing colorful rain boots when it hasn't rained in a month and ugg boots with workout shorts. You're motherfricking doing it wrong. If I ever become a serial killer, these will be my targets.

4: The fact that apparently nobody else on this planet but me knows how a four way stop fricking works. THIS. IS. NOT. HARD.

This. Yesterday was Easter and I'll be damned if I had more than 2-3 real conversations with the 25 or so people at my house. Every room had people in it and most weren't really talking to each other but rather staring at their phone.
