So so so many things.
Lately, I'm really annoyed by grown women being dramatic in their judgment and condescension of others. There's a way to express disappointment, disagreement or a different perspective without using so much barbarism, hyperbole and solecism. Because we often process online expression with the warped perspective of not knowing somebody outside of the internet, such behavior fosters chasms of misunderstanding and social segregation. It often makes people feel defensive, which can make them want to remove themselves from the community or to employ the same sorts of declarations in defense of their actions...even if the original statement was just an observation which could have been simply and elegantly shared to illuminate the poster's preferences as part of capturing their true character.
I'm also bothered by trends to illustrate positive character development like winning a competition or striving to be more beautiful as politically incorrect. Wanting to be the best version of yourself should be something that we encourage rather than marginalize or even vilify.
