          Hmm, now that you make me think about it, I'm going to say any beard that looks either over- or under-groomed. There's some middle ground that's okay.

            Bawhaha- just learned something about myself...I feel annoyed by anything that becomes popular

            --Been drinking coconut water/milk since let's seeeee 1972ish - I am annoyed that it has become a fad and now is uber expensive
            --Same thing with Quinoa. Sheesh - I remember when it was cheap - now, not so much.
            --Essential oils - been using them all my life an no, they do not cure HIV but the damn peppermint oil will settle my stomach. Pisses me off that their popularity has made the price skyrocket and that doterra and living oils (or whatever they are called) are THE ONLY pure brands. (eyeroll)
            --Patagonia/Northface - they used to be a good brand now all the coeds made it a fad and the quality is not the same
            --Lularoe - yes, agreed, they are just tights and tees...and only look good (no matter what the hostess/salesperson tells you) on certain people...like kids.
            Finally - we are finished with training! Hello real world!!

              HMMMMMM not sure how to describe without sounding really judgemental. Sexy Christianity probably isn't the best description. There is a wave of people where I live who are incredibly materialistic. Shockingly so.

              A large percentage of this group make it very public that they are Christian and they go to bible study, church, and do mission work. Many of the women who are moms and over 40 wear 400 dollar jeans with sparkles on the butt in the shape of a cross. They have trucker hats and watches with real diamonds -- all with biblical symbols on them and all very flashy. Some SUVs these people own have giant rims with bible sayings around the wheel (seriously).

              I guess a better description would be the Christian version of keeping up with the Jones'. Of course this all goes against the basic principles of Christianity -- I'm not trying to offend here -- just trying to illustrate the bizarre hypocrisy.

              Picture a woman over 40 with a 15,000 dollar breast enlargement, in a jogging suite that says "I Run For JESUS" in sparkles on her butt, driving a tricked out Escalade that says "Jesus Lives" on the personalized license plate where each rim has Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John on the band closest to the wheels.

              Seriously folks ...you can't make this stuff up.

                              Well besides beachbody... I was thinking anti-vac types annoy me beyond belief. But actually don't think I had ever met anyone anti-vac until moving here. I didn't think it was super acceptable east coast stance to take. I was just talking to a new Yorker dad at the park about it a few weeks ago - maybe we were just lucky not to run into them for so many years... making up for it now!

                                LOL!!!! I used to workout with this woman who basically stole a "workout" from the studio I went to and rebranded it into some crazy fit for Jesus enterprise. She would totally fit in with that crowd. She posts on social media talking about working out and being in shape for god - and includes bible passages. It cracks me up - I also have never met anyone else like that - in fact I wondered who was buying her books/dvds etc... apparently a market exists! Who knew.

                                Meanwhile... she is super crazy rich. Bentleys, maseratis, biggest diamond I think I've ever seen (it must be well over 7 carats). Turns out... they own fast food restaurants! Lol. I couldn't stop laughing after finding that out!

                                God wants you to be super healthy and by my workout and diet plan.... but I'm going to sell horrible food to all the poor people in America so that I can buy another car or diamond cross. 🤔
