Not as widespread as it was but the whole "Throwing shade/Clapping back" nonsense.

Everyone under the age of 25 incapable of completing a sentence without saying "bro" 374 times.
..or the word 'like' every 3rd or 4th word
..or using the word 'whenever' instead of the word 'when', i.e. 'I grabbed an apple whenever I picked up my lunch bag this afternoon'. That drives me ape sh**.
Or the phrase "know what I sayin'
Or "Full Stop"
The current one that bothers me (and I don't know why) is every single organization that finds itself dealing with some negative PR uses the same opening statement: "We are aware of...." or "We have been made aware of...."
The same boilerplate language that all companies use just drives me crazy.

This term is used incessantly on slack at my company. I'm looking forward to not seeing that again here pretty soon.

Can I add "...out of an abundance of caution..."
In hate that terminology.

I just want the record to reflect that "not seeing that again here pretty soon" means I'm retiring.
I don't want anyone looking at this thinking I'm some kind of disgruntled psycho that is planning to go postal. lol.
People getting offended so easily
This has gone on much longer than 5 years but has really started to bother me lately:
Tagless t-shirts. I'm getting too old to see the print and keep putting shirts on backwards

I'd like to see companies stop acting like they're in business for anything other than the bottom line. Especially big companies.
It's always so disingenuous to me when I see a commercial for like a big bank or insurance company and they're trying to act like their whole organization only exists to uphold some virtue. Such BS. Everyone knows all that matters is the money.
It's ok that you're ever trying to grow and maximize profits. That's why we all go to work.
I'd much rather see advertising that exhibits the quality of your product or why your company is a better value than the competition.
A few years ago San Antonio Federal Credit Union changed its name to "Credit Human". I've never rolled my eyes so hard in my life.

The word "like" needs to be erased from the vernacular. It's ****ing awful.
Rooting for politicians as if they were a sports team

Because anyone behind them has to stop and wait for them to crawl into the parking place, most of the time taking an extra 2 or 3 attempts to straighten out because they're in something way bigger than they can handle.
Exactly.
To back in, they have to pull into the on-coming traffic side of the parking lot aisle (stopping traffic in both directions), stop, put it in reverse, slowly creep backwards into the spot, in most cases they then have to stop, put it in drive, pull forward again, stop, put it in reverse, and slowly back into the spot again. Sometimes, they have to go one more time.
Meanwhile, everyone else in the parking lot has to stop what they're doing and wait on this guy to waste 30 seconds doing what takes most of us one second to do.
It's not really about the time this person is wasting for every other driver in the parking lot, it's the inconsiderate nature of it all...or the idea that this person is completely oblivious to the rest of the world around them.
If they park 'nose in' like most people do, they have to do the exact same thing when they back out to leave. Every parking method in a space you can't pull through involves putting the vehicle in reverse. Others have to wait going in or going out. Waiting for people to get in or out of a parking space is just part of dealing with parking.
If you don't want to wait, parking further away where nobody else is parked is the solution. There are times where the lot is completely full, but it's not the norm.
Greater love hath no man than this....
If people are going to back in they need to learn how to do it quick and on the first try, and the part where Tahoes are somehow the compact option now isn't helping things any. At work it's just about always some guy who's 5'8 and 275 with a crew cab who takes a good two or three tries to figure out how to back it in there. Never a younger guy in a Civic or one of my Subaru driving girl friends.

Yeah he seems pretty chafed by it, which is hard to do because there's no tag.

Yeah I'm not understanding any of the anti back in people's arguments. Only time I agree is when it's the angled spots. Otherwise it's 6 of one 1/2 dozen of the other.
People who pull in forward have to readjust too….
It's a weird one

This just sounds like you have a problem with a certain type of guy than people who back in
Apologies if any of that hits too close to home.
I notice trends; it's almost become a meme at work though because several others who sit nearby started to see the same thing when parking became super tight.

I don't understand the new trend of people that back in to angled spots. Then when it's time to leave they drive out the wrong direction and look at all the other cars like they are idiots for being in the way. I've noticed it's a group of people that are young and seem to all share an ethnic background. I'm guessing most of these people don't have license.

We can all agree on this
Politician signage outside of election season.
Politician merch, it's weird
Politician merch, it's weird
car manufacturers (GM) using their reverse lights for other than just for reversing (unlocking car).
Reverse lights should be used for only 1 thing... Reversing!

While I am against ALL politicians, it's also a cultural thing.

I can park nose-in and back out and leave a lot faster than most people I see trying to back in and pull out forward.
no way bro, my 17 point turn to back in is so much quicker and safer, you can tell I'm an expert on such tactics because i have a punisher decal on my back windshield
I hear "the bush" has made a comeback.

Yeah, I don't interpret that as a political hat but it could be, I guess.
