Things the Internet hates, but I'm indifferent to

Family Stickers

Why the hate? Her minivan isn't a WW2 with kills stamped on the fuselage. Someone loves his kids, and his cats and dog. And why do you hate on minivans? Sometimes you have to move people around. The Caravan saved my dad's career. Complain about SUV's. I mean, SUV's are minivans for people who have money to throw away, and are too embarrassed to they need a minivan. Grow up.

Hash tags in Facebook. People saying "LOL" in real life

People cut-paste on twitter and Facebook. Deal with it. Language is designed by such colloquial. If you're so hateful, why are you even on Facebook? Hashtags are the least of the things you should be pissy about.

Titanic. Twilight. Justin Bieber

Titanic was an epic. You can argue the love story was simple, but it was a massive project and very impressive. Plus, the string quartet and old people made me cry.

As for Twilight and Justin Bieber. Clearly you are more sophisticated than a 13 year old girl. So are you just going to complain until 13 year olds are cool again? You're going to get old before you grow up.

Emoticons

:P

I don't get get the appeal of family stickers but I don't care if someone chooses to have them. Minivans have too much of a bad reputation. They carry more people and more stuff than most SUVs. They cost less and get better gas mileage. The only thing I can say about minivans is that I think they have gotten a bit too big to be mini but I think that's the case with most cars. I never saw Titanic, don't think I ever heard an entire Justin Beiber song (at least not knowingly), and I never read the Twilight books. I did see most of the movies on TV but mainly because there was nothing else on. I don't think the films are great works of art, but I was minimally entertained while I watched them. The books may be crap but working at a library I get to see that there is a lot of bad books. But it doesn't matter. If the books aren't making people hate each other and they are not giving bad advice that could hurt someone, then who cares. Let the people that enjoy the books enjoy them.
I think emoticons are rather hand and wish I could use them in more places.

A good complaint I hear about Twilight is the weakness of the female character as a positive role model. Fair enough. But damn, a lot of people are reading those books. These are people who COMPLAIN WHILE READING IT, yet go to the very end. We all like crap from time to time.
