Cultural Novocaine

When all around you is death and destruction. A regularly scheduled school shooting. And when the news nightly tells you their was 6murders, 4rapes, a kidnapping, 4 domestic violence cases, and a bombing in some far off city, it's hard to care about any of it anymore.

You become totally numb to all of the death, destruction, and any sympathy or pain it would have once created in you. It is like when going to a dentist for work, they numb your mouth. Well society had numbed your brain, your soul with Cultural Novocaine

Hey Steve, did you hear about the 4murders, kidnapping, and bombing of Gaza?

No man I dont care about, or even worry about that stuff, it just doesn't matter to someone numbed by Cultural Novocaine.

Metrics Culture

A subculture gaining traction worldwide, brought about by the ever expanding technologies capable of monitoring performance and bodily functions. Metrics ostensibly meant to help individuals perform better, lose weight, sleep better or just feel better may impart helpful information but also feed a never ending spiral of performance obsession and weight loss fixation. Replacing intuition about one's own body with a set of numbers may move the individual further from reality than closer to it.

"My riding buddy can't even fart without checking his smartwatch, he's been swallowed by metrics culture."

Screen Culture

The WORST YouTube channel ever made. It posts Al generated trailers for upcoming movies like James Gunns SUPERMAN and The minecraft movie. Also posted a fake Al generated trailer for Sonic 3, a really good movie, before the movie came out.

One out of two definitions of real idiots, the second being school

Guy 1: Have you seen Screen Culture
Guy 2: Yeah, I've heard they're bad

Karen Culture

A business culture that was created in response to the numerous "Karen" videos posted online in the early 2020s. Rather than listening to genuine complaints (bad customer service and poor quality of product etc) many employees began assuming that anyone who complained, regardless of the legitimacy of the complaint, was a "Karen" and would not put any effort in fixing the underlying issue, as it was assumed by the employees that it was the customer with the issue rather than the business itself. As a result, the issues within the business were never fixed resulting in a gradual exodus of consumers and, ultimately, the closure of the business.

People use to love that restaurant but the quality of the food and the customer service got so bad that it just wasn't the same. There were a ton of negative reviews of Google about these issues but there never seemed to be any effort to acknowledge or fix them. It was a victim of Karen Culture.

landmine culture

A culture where speech is heavily policed and saying the wrong thing will get you thrown in jail.

The year is 2077. Location: Germany. Landmine culture has become so prevalent that insults are banned. Even the slightest hint that you made someone uncomfortable will see you behind bars. Never mind calling someone a dick, you can't even call someone a banana. They've banned that too.
