Are there some behaviors you think everyone is guilty of doing, but don’t realize how damaging they are? Well, a recent internet poll asked ‘what toxic behaviors have been normalized by society’ and the list may surprise you!
Disposing Vapes Like They Are Burger Wrappers
“I walk a lot, and I’ve been finding these things everywhere. It’s driving me crazy.”
“Never thought too much about how those, in particular, were so wasteful until it died the same day I bought and realized people are just throwing those things away daily.”
Everything Has An Objective – If Not, It’s Useless
“I resonate with this. What happened to learning skills just for the sake of it? I don’t wanna grind 24/7.”
“The second I even begin to think about monetizing anything I enjoy doing/making, I lose all interest in it at a rapid rate.”
You’re Either With Us, Or Against Us – No Space For Nuance
“Yes. And not only that but being proved wrong or partially incorrect and yet doubling down on their stance.”
“I agree. Often times things going too far in either direction can be bad, but people get so hyper-focused that they don’t want to or choose not to see/acknowledge it.”
Overworking
“Being at home for Christmas, I was mourning how tired everyone looked. People deserve to sleep.”
“The number of jobs I’ve worked at where overtime was a badge of pride and honor was odd to me.”
Following Influencers Like Sheep
“They don’t actually like the things they’re promoting. They just like the money they’re getting paid to promote these things.”
“They only care about the likes and subscriptions because that’s what gets them more $$$.”
The OCD Fakers
“Yes, this. One girl keeps saying she has OCD when she doesn’t, I asked her if she even knew what it meant, and she said Obsessive Cleaning Disorder…”
“That’s what gets me – people self-diagnosing a real affliction to make them seem quirky or justify their poor behavior.”
Relying On Social Media For Advice – What Happened To Friends?
“My ex used to post on a Relationship Advice forum instead of talking to me about her problems. She brought it up, and all I could think is how toxic that forum is.”
Ghosting
“The most pathetic thing about it is people coming up with excuses. Take some responsibility and act like a respectful adult.”
“It’s annoying when they expect me to still care after they ghosted for a month.”
Clapping While Arguing – So Annoying…
“I immediately disengage if this begins. Such a cringe action to perform.”
“The moment someone does this, they have manifested to me that they are incapable of taking in any other viewpoint. The discussion ends briefly after.”
Yelling At Customer Service Staff
“Having worked in customer service, I now make it a priority to remember the staff member’s name and also be very nice to them. Hopefully, it helps them in a sea of horrible calls.”
Videotaping Emergencies Rather Than Helping
“I’ve had multiple experiences like this. What bothers me the most is the people recording actually get there before the people who actually intend to help.”
People Are Quick To Diagnose Others
“Everyone who does something you don’t like or don’t understand is autistic or has a personality disorder these days or has ADHD.”
“I see people diagnosing others with ADHD all the time. It’s a real neurological disorder, not ‘I often space out or forget my keys at home’.”
‘Man Up’
“99.9% the time when a woman uses the” man up” phrase, they are emotionally manipulating you.”
“Treating men badly for having feelings or issues, what is wrong with us, as a species.”
Not Teaching Our Kids How To Do Chores
“Went to a dorm in college, and 80% of boys there don’t even know how to wash their underwear or how to load the dishwasher properly.”
Booze – It Is Literally Toxic
“Once you stop partaking, it’s so obvious. And when you have it again, you feel like, “Wow, this is awful!'”
“Alcohol is a class 1 carcinogen. It’s in the same category as tobacco.”
Parents Exploiting Kids’ Privacy – They Have No Say!
“I hate when they do this. Using your own children for the sake of content & engagement on social media.”
“I’d never do this. My pride or happiness in my kids does not need votes from internet strangers at the cost of my child’s privacy.”
‘The Customer Is Always Right’ – Yeah… Right
“I’ve had customers steal right in front of my face, so clearly, that’s not true. You’re right.”
“Having worked in a pharmacy, a customer telling me that I should give them medicine without having a doctor’s note is, most certainly, not right.”
Staff Relying On Tips More Than Their Wage
“I’m from Australia, so this didn’t make sense to me until I started reading about it in the media. It’s completely disgusting that it’s like that in some places in the world.”
