You Are Currently Watching: Kill This Trend
Posted In: All Videos, Funny VideosComments: 61 Responses
t’s been a while since I covered just a flat-out annoying trend, and a verbal one at that. And there is a new one on the scene that just about kills me, so here you go: a new I-hate-this-trend video for you to enjoy. The worst part about it for me is how indicative it is of just how self-entitled, whiny, and bitchy our culture has become. It’s…SOFT. There’s no valor or pride or hold-your-chin-highness about it. It’s just dismissive and smarmy and lousy, and I hate it. I’ll just let you watch to learn what it is. Go ahead, I’ll wait. You watch it yet? Ok good. Now, tell me: have you heard people use this? Has anyone ever used it AGAINST you? How did it make you feel? For me, it made me feel like smacking the offenders, the users of this trend, upside the head. Because it’s just such a rotten attitude, such a rotten stance to take. I’m just saying. However, the trendy saying probably IS going to get absorbed into our cultural collective mind and we’ll all be saying it with grins and just accepting it as the vernacular, without even noticing how dismissive it is. We’ll all be saying it and hearing it so much that we won’t even notice how we all just died a little, culturally speaking. That’s just how these things roll, it seems. I guess I’m saying this little video is probably a futile effort. But, you know me – I’ll keep fighting the good fight, even when I know it’s a losing battle. And you? I thank you, for listening, even just a little – and I’ll forgive us all when we just starting saying this lousy trendy saying, because that’s the way this cultural cookie usually crumbles.

i dont think this will ever happen. we have”are you serious?!?!” which essentially had “really?” but delivered silently or just “seriously”.It seems that the resident’s complaint is that our abbreviation is taking the beauty out of language. what can i say these are the clumsy attempts to create “conceptual” language where one phrase can connote a myriad of emotions meanings depending on its use..Like “dude” did as opposed to our linear one we currently use in most cases of communication.

It’s so great that someone shares my hatred of this “really?” trend. I brought this up to some friends of mine some months ago and was told that it originated from “Grey’s Anatomy.” Anyone know the truth of that statement?

[..YouTube..] You are good. Ameria needs people like you, who educate them about media and the shit they fabricate.
In greece there are many people who do shows like you. Thats some kind of a tradition over here. And if you look at the greeks you realize that the people are separated from the media and the state.
And that is, what every nation should achieve.
