I'll start: the whole social media thing of everybody having to be a "brand" and the mainstream usage of corporate language (branding, SEO, engagement, content).
Related: trying to turn every single interesting post into a media empire. I remember a little while ago a funny video of a cat failing to use a treadmill hit the top of Reddit, and then suddenly it had its own subreddit and daily posts and just like that the magic was completely squeezed out in the pursuit of riches from viral fame
God pretty much everything related to social media, influencers, etc is just garbage
The desire to have the best tool to start a hobby.
I like working on cars, electronics, and music. I've been doing it for years. A coworker bought a project car and I was teaching him how to work on it, and he bought every tool in the catalog. Just toy after toy despite it taking 2 years to change the oil on the car himself.
Same dude wanted to learn to play guitar, was ready to drop 500+ immediately, i told him "hey borrow this guitar for a bit so you can figure out what you want" and he never touched the guitar.
Hobbies shouldn't be just a category to spend money on.
