What will probably go wrong in the near future?

Write it down now so you can gloat about it when it happens!

What are the most annoying songs or jingles?

Whether it's "Macarena" or the jingle in a mayonnaise commercial getting your goat… let annoying earworms have it. What songs and jingles do you never want to hear again?

What Horrible Companies Still Exist But Shouldn't?

Meta-retailers treating their workers horribly. Cell phone companies locking you into ridiculous contracts. Health insurance companies that deny every claim because you're a pre-existing condition. Unleash some fury on companies that need to go out of business NOW.

Describe the worst people you've ever had to work with.

Coworkers who steal your ideas? Bosses who play favorites? Customers you'd like to choke? Head to the comments and let us know!

What sounds get on your nerves?

Whether it's a dripping tap or a car alarm that keeps going off, what sounds annoy the fuck out of you?

What are the dumbest movies or TV shows?

Whether it's some sleazy reality shows or unrealistic rom-coms, what does Hollywood keep churning out that works your last nerve?

What stupid thing is popular right now that shouldn't be?

Whether it's some social media platform, an idiotic fashion trend, or a detestable political movement, what current trend just needs to be over?

I'll go first: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Tik-Tok, each for the own specific reasons. Facebook has ripped society apart under the guise of bringing people together. Twitter has wantonly sown disinformation. Instagram has placed unrealistic expectations on everyone and has spawned the most vile of all demons, "influencers:" those individuals who think themselves more important in society than anyone else simply because they exist and push products no one wants to buy. Lastly, while Tik-Tok has produced some very entertaining moments, on the whole it seems it's nothing more than the most ignorant of our country trying to out-stupid each other simply for "likes."

I believe social media has done more to break society and bring down the collective intelligence of the public and should rightfully be referred to as The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

Now get off my lawn!

(In the interest of honesty, I've been an Instagram user since it was a legitimate forum for displaying your own photography, and I'm on Twitter solely for access to the free porn you can find there.)

Let's start with an easy one:

What bad behavior are you sick of seeing in public?

Whether it's loud cell phone conversations on speaker or littering, what degenerate displays irritate you the most? Speak!
