I broadly agreed with your list whilst reading it, and then you go and undo your good work by suggesting ketchup...tut tut.
at 29 years old I find myself a premature grumpy old man. as for ketchup I can not stand the sight smell or taste of it. turns my stomach to see people ruin a nice meal with it

With you on the feminazi and "multi gender" nonsense. 2 genders 2 orientations. None of this. "I identify as a woman" therefore I am gendered as a woman!}~

Fat shaming is brilliant! No one should be fat imo! Funny how pointing this out is "fat shaming" whereas graphic pics on fag boxes shaming you smoking is "health advice"

I go with religion tbh. If that hussy Mary hadn't shagged someone else then convinced her dense husband David Joseph that "its Gods baby and I'm still a virgin" who knows where we'd be evolved to by now!

Can't think of anything else tbh

Nuclear power can be used for Weapons of clean(er) energy
Chemicals can be used for weapons or to cure cacner.
Smart phones are annoying, as is social medias, but it's not universally bad.

David? I'm no biblical scholar, but I think you might find that that should be "Joseph", unless there's something in the apocrypha I missed.

I came to the conclusion that the smartphone is quite possibly the worst thing ever invented.
Don't blame the invention blame the people:

How would you explain to an alien being coming down to earth that a significant proportion of earth's population carries with them a device which can be used to access virtually the sum of all human knowledge - yet they use those devices to watch cat videos, post pictures of food onto facebook and start arguments with strangers on the other side of the planet.

One might argue that it is us humans who need to be dis-invented hehe

Flies


I hate them, I have severe OCD around them to the point that I feel the need to grap some Flash wipes and polish where I have seen them walk, they look disgusting, they walk around your food, they make annoying noises....





.. yeah I do have a phobia of them, embarassingly.

a) Marketing - the art of making people unhappy with what they have. The prime vehicle for delivering this is:
b) Television

Remove those two and society would be much better off IMHO.
As a marketing manager, I agree.
