White guys saying the N word and being gangsta. There is nothing ever cool about a white guy pretending to be ghetto. Yes I'll include Eminem and I don't care if he's been given the pass.

Diva covers of songs that don't fit the emotional tone of the song because they're too busy showing off their vocal cords.
And people who love these songs.

I can't currently think of any particular women responsible for this,
or particular songs, but I'm quite sure it must have been Christmas song covers,
turning "Jingle Bells" into Aretha Franklin's "Dr. Feelgood".
The only particular song I can come up with, is Michael Bublé's "cry me a river"
and whoever plays the instruments during his version,
so this is not just a mostly female phenomena.

[edit] I'm pretty sure it's Ariane Grande now.
Great singer but not very adaptable.
And probably missing the point of Mariah Carey's christmas song popularity,
the original one as I've just seen newer Hallmark music video
where the video theme no longer matches the song.

Pants that hang so low that all of your ass is above the waistline. Nobody can ever convince me it can be even remotely cool

The worst is Quentin Tarantino shoehorning his characters saying that in all of his movies.

People talking about their suicidal feelings on the internet. Not sure why you'd want the whole world to know you're feeling vulnerable, or what you think it can do to help. And people are so casual about saying it.
