Calling yourself “Alpha”. If you have to say it out loud, you are definitely not the Alpha.
Sounds like something a beta would say

Typical Alpha response?

I’m gonna sound like a boomer but cigarettes and not using PPE, including with recreational activities such as motorcycling and hobby crafts.
Becoming a meat crayon isn’t worth “looking cool.”
Around here it’s the boomers who are smoking cigarettes!
I think you just sound like a rational human being that doesn’t consistently use their emotions for decision making.
Not wearing a seatbelt and not wearing a helmet.
Vaping/smoking.
The outside of a space station in sunlight (~121° C or ~250° F)
Does it feel like that? I know some bits of space are super hot but there’s not enough stuff there to get that energy to a person suspended in it. I guess being right next to the ISS might do it.
I would assume so? The material would get hot through solar radiation and probably not radiate much heat off itself while receiving radiation. There’s no fluid medium in space for convection, so conduction would be the main mode of heat transfer for a person.
Disclaimer: I am not a space craft scientist and my info is from just a web search and my memory of formal education sciences
Contrarianism. Being anti-“Popular Thing” just for the sake of being anti-“Popular Thing” marks you out as having no thoughts worth hearing out.
As somebody who was anti for a loooong time, 100% this. It’s a bad mindset, and it affects your wellbeing.
Or you’re neurodivergent and you’re naturally anti anything that has the potential to be remotely popular
Being part of a marginalized or oppressed group.
Weed.
Reading a study today saying that it’s being linked to dementia. Personally I can’t wait. I want to know what its like to be able to listen to trump without it feeling like someone is beating you in the head with a hammer.
Had to look that up quick!! ER visits for marijuana linked to dementia diagnosis within 5 years. Such an odd qualifier.
But it’s a plant! It’s natural! Everything natural is harmless! Imagine regulating plants! /s
I miss when that shit was illegal. Transgender people who only want to live their lives need to be in hiding but drug addicts in denial can openly be intoxicated at work and in public, and be the worst emotional abusers possible when they’re sober.
War.
Drinking. It’s one of the more damaging drugs but it’s completely normalized because it’s legal. Even people who don’t have drinking problems per se, Ares still harming their health way more than they realize.
you can develop liver damage by just drinking a six pack every Saturday for a few decades. I think the current recommended weekly limit is two drinks per week! that means 10oz wine or 24oz beer
Smoking weed in the park and dropping the N bomb constantly.
I always liked smoking weed in the park. Usually in my car or out on a secluded trail. Never felt the need to drop n bombs tho
Obviously weren’t cool enough

Now that cigarettes are finally going away, it was nice to breathe fresh air for a bit, but it’s getting worse again. There are so many cannabis options that don’t ruin other people’s enjoyment of the outdoors, can’t smoking just go away entirely?
There’s this one bench area on our town common that permanently reeks of pot smoking. It’s outside, no one around, yet it still stinks. And it stinks enough that walking g by on the sidewalk is unpleasant.
Or that riverwalk, where we can enjoy brief experiences of nature in between all the islands of pot smoke.
I was going to find some extremely old racial epithet that starts with an N, so obscure it wouldn’t offend anyone anymore. But I decided I don’t want to Google “obscure ethnic slurs” today, so I decided to skip this comment.

Being able to identify adult videos/actresses on sight. Like, multiple. I can understand someone having a favorite or something, but some people are like walking porn IMDBs.
Not sure who thinks this is cool but, yeah, that’s not a convo I’m jumping in on.
Certain kinds of rightwingers. Some of them are quiet about it, but the loud ones are often extremely obnoxious and clearly think they’re hot shit.
Clever insults rather than substantial discussion or “to cut off heads in order to appear taller,” rather than doing the work to actually be a better version of self.
Moaning about issues without putting in effort or taking any risks to correct issues.
Branded clothes. Why are you a walking advertisement because rappers who get paid big money to tell you that looks cool tell you to wear it? It’s all ugly anyway.
