The One With The 12 Things That Make My "Lame List 2013"

Inspired by the epic fail of Kim & Kanye's collaboration in West's new music video, I've decided to compile a list of all the other things to emerge out of 2013 that caused my eyebrows to say "WTF"...

1) The Said Music Video
Nothing about this video makes any sense whatsoever. It just looks like Kim's 2nd sex tape with more special effects and a slightly better soundtrack...


2) Still on the music vine: Psy's follow-up song - Gentleman
Same outfits, same moves, less hit. NEVER try a sequel on a one-hit wonder. NEVER


3) Yet still on the music vine: Miley Cyrus. Twerking. On Robin Thicke.
Over it! (& Anything else to do with her attempts to 'get rid' of Hannah Montana)


4) YOLO
I don't have words to describe just how much the phase that followed this phenomenon irritates me, oh well, #YOLO





5) Fit-Flops
I don't know why shoes are made purely to assault my eyes. This beauty must be the cousin of crocs in-bred with a kitten-heel. 1992 called they want their fashion back.

6) #ForeverAlone
You're sad, depressed, miserable, lonely all at the same time and voicing your every thought and feeling on every possible social network... You're going to stay alone... Forever... You need to be happy alone and not depend on someone else... Ohhh, look kittens...



7) The dictionary adding words like "amazeballs" (I know copywriter Ayesha is dying inside a little) and then there's "selfie"...

8) The "selfie" itself...
I don't have an issue with people taking pictures of themselves, it's been happening ever since phones got cameras... If you look good own it... BUT!!! Location. Location. Location. And also, that Apple icon is waaayyy prettier than your duckface!





9) North West...

And we thought Gwyneth Paltrow hated her daughter when she went with "Apple"...



10) Instagramming your cheese sandwich or coffee





11) BBM on any other platform but Crackberry
How do you sell the one thing that made your product unique? And all those people that put up statuses about how they no longer have bbm and then started posting their pins again...


12) Bitstrips.
It was fun that first week. Now I'm just annoyed that your skin is miraculously 3 shades lighter...
