This may or may not be inspired by the nebula original abolish everything, a show I have not watched.
I would like to abolish subscription fees for most items that really shouldn’t have subscription fees. If you bought the item, it should be yours. That’s the point of buying the item.
I think if you buy something, and you modify it to provide subscription services without being subscribed, it should be legal.
Example, that stupid Mercedes where they charge a fee for the heated seats. If you flash your own software on the car that allows heated seats, it should totally be legal to do so.
That’s an interesting thought
Yeah, the crap car companies are pushing is dangerous. Imagine not being allowed to modify the software on your phone or computer. They are essentially arguing that.
The stock market.
I would abolish toilets without bidets. You would be legally required to have a bidet in all bathrooms, private and public. Worldwide!
It’s ubiquitous in Vietnam, is it not where you live??
Professional sports teams. I’m just sick of hearing people blather on endlessly about them and expecting me to join in.
Bring back gladiators!
Its the drawn out bullshit that I have no patience for, its a midseason game between two teams who arent going to make the finals… calm the fuck down.
Billionaires.
Also, the propagation of the idea that you are poor because of the actions of even poorer people.
Video tutorials without captions/instead of text. I don’t want to watch someone fumble through over 30 minutes what I can skim in 5.
The inconsistency of apostrophe usage in English for possessives and contractions. If it was instead written…
It-s a wonderful day out today, take your phone but turn off it’s data so you can soak up the clear blue skies.
It’d be so much fucking easier and my OCD would be satiated.
Granted, but no hyphen.
Henceforth, possession shall be denoted with ` and contraction shall be denoted with '. Possessive plurals shall be denoted with ``.
The need to pee at night.
Teenagers. Just ship 'em off somewhere between the ages of 13 and 18. Pouty, Self-entitled, disrespectful shits.
Maybe they are like that because we already ship them off to indoctrination camps between ages 7-13.
The word ‘literally’.
It’s been abused and needs to now just die.
Additionally, anyone uttering that word must be slapped by everyone who hears it.
Literally slapped?
Also, the word ‘actually’. Fuck that word.
Digital billboards. That degree of rapid pace advertising is toxic, also those fuckers are bright AF.
I would extent this to billboards in general. Its annoying and nonsensical to advertise private products in public spaces
I would extend this as well to solicitors.
The colour red so that way whenever somebody goes to “Red Lobster” all they see is “Lobster” on the sign.
Property taxes. Land value taxes are just better.
People saying “blog” when they mean post. You did not write a new blog on your blog, you wrote a new post on your blog.
You do not drive your car on the car. You drive your car on the road.
News outlets taking quotes from company PR/employees and including them alongside facts about reality. “Company x does something horrible, here is the data. Meanwhile, the CEO says it’s inaccurate because bs reasonexcuse.”. So much of corporate media is this, we’ve nearly lost the expectation a news outlet have any sense of responsibility outside of an easy quote from the paid company representative. Every single employee quote should come with footer “but of course this person does pay their mortgage based on saying whatever the companies needs it to to continue doing what benefits it the most so this is idiotically biased”.
