I detest the overuse of acronyms and initialisms in conversation.

I resent digital Television. What was wrong with analogue?

The general shape of men's legs + skinny jeans do not a match make...in my opinion.

I dislike terminology which glorifies plain ol' criminal activity. Sadly, it seems to be quite a trend which even the media get carried away with.

I know they've been popular for years...but I have to say I don't like digital versatile discs (DVD's) & compact discs (CD's). Give me tapes over discs any day!

Never become a computer geek then. Pretty much every technical term we use is an acronym.

Popular clothing styles, where women look as if they had squeezed into their much younger sister's clothing. Clothing styles that display cleavage and butt cracks. Loud, awful music being piped through the store where I am trying to shop.

I fu¢king love those. Not to wear, though; I'm not a cross-dresser.

Street walker fashions - the clothes that hookers wear.

:lol: There's no chance of that ever happening...though it's not just computer geeks you know. Try having a conversation with someone who works in education...or any other government department.

I find myself constantly stopping people just to ask "...and what does that stand for?" :?

All of these things and anything from 2005 and beyond. Today's world fails to suit or impress me.

All of these. Except sex.
Also Blackberries/Iphones, TNA, Lululemon, The Hills, and the vast majority of popular music right now.

My diagnoses - social anxiety disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

I’m no longer involved with the ASD world.

Valley Talk. It was bad enough when just the girls were talking that way. It seems that everybody talks that way, these days.

iCarly is the only show on Nickelodeon I really like & about the the only kids show I watch. Those other kids shows are horrible. iCarly won't be around much longer because she plans on going to college next year.

YES. All of those are not appealing, especially teen/tween pop music. If I ever listen to a form of pop, it's J-pop, which can sometimes carry deeper meanings if not on Morning Musume.
