Most stupid internet trends?

[thejuice]

What's the worst, most confusing or irrational internet trend?

For me it's the tide pod challenge or the milk crate challenge (admittedly the crate challenge was so stupid it was actually funny in a jackass kind of way)

There was an article in a newspaper the other day, about something called tik-tok challenges. Kids are doing those challenges and ending up in hospital or even worse. There was for example one where kids were challenged to eat 14 benadryl. These 'challenges' has to be high on the list of ridiculously stupid internet trends.

Spending all day on some device or other, practically married to the thing.

I think it's hilarious, but I don't think I am allowed to post it. The initials are N.N.N. I don't know who came up with it (no pun intended), but it's really funny.

I once saw a girl drinking a whole bottle of cooking oil on YouTube. I guess they do it for our entertainment.

My stepdad thinks it’s stupid.

I remember there was a South Park episode called faith hilling that parodied Planking. Unfortunately people have passed away due to it.

Chubby Bunny is also dangerous as it poses a choking hazard.

Many years ago in the UK there was "happy slapping" where people would literally slap random strangers on the street while others filmed it, or filmed themselves doing it.

There was a more recent trend of walking into random people's houses just to film their reactions, but luckily the police quickly intervened in that one.

I remember in my city once there were rumours that some guy was going around ripping people's ears off, but I'm not sure if that was true.

I don't bother to look at any of that trending stuff, most of it looks too stupid and annoying. Watching videos about Australia is bad enough, none of them are made by Aussies and almost every one of their "facts" are completely wrong.

People who follow these trends are so dumb. The internet is killing gen alpha. I heard gen alpha doesn’t know how to read or know their alphabets because they spend so much time on their tablets. Parents are not parenting.

The internet says Generation Alpha can't read. Is it because we're raising ‘iPad children’?

As early literacy scores slump, some are laying the blame on technology. The truth is likely more complicated than that, experts say.

Forgot to mention the Stanley cups. Why fight over a cup and collect hundreds when it defeats the purpose of a reusable cup.
