I always found people who take pictures with the middle finger as a trashy gesture. I don’t and never know who they’re trying to tell off but it’s out of no where and just stupid. It doesn’t offend me, I just find it a pointless gesture and therefore - trashy.

Talking at the movies. It’s happening increasingly frequently here, and it’s making me go less nowadays. I don’t mean a few words, I mean constant chatter throughout the showing. Like, just shut the hell up and get immersed!

AI generated “content”. Especially when it’s blatantly obvious and/or when they’re lying about it.
Trashy is pretty close to the union of inconsiderate and incurious.
I was standing outside of a coffee shop one time when I looked across the street and I saw a 40-year-old grown adult woman take her gum out of her mouth and deliberately drop it in the middle of the sidewalk because she couldn’t be bothered to walk five feet to put it in a trash can.
It’s gross, but if you’ve got a napkin nearby, you’ve got the opportunity to provide some instant karma in the form of social shaming.
Behaving inconsiderately towards strangers.
Lack of respect for other people, though it’s really usually just a mild annoyance.
Being flagrantly disrespectful of basic public etiquette.
Private conversations in public at a volume that ensures everyone knows your business.
Similarly, speaking at full volume on your phone in public.
And the phone is on speaker! Motherfucker, you can hear it better when it’s not on speaker and is pressed against your ear!
Fake opulence. Example: donald trump. Gold gilded everything in extreme excess. Properties that look like a “B” movie cheesy bordello. Trying to be ‘hip, flashy cool, in’. And looking ultra cringe trying.
Non-political example: Big ass, loud, overly decked-out truck. Raised up adds 10,000 points, diesel adds 1 million points.
People who are actually classy don’t have to try. And being classy was never their goal. Trashy takes a lot of effort.
Trying to be ‘hip, flashy cool, in’. And looking ultra cringe trying.
‘Trashy’ was a word I’d formerly associated only with trailer parks, and wouldn’t have associated with Elon Musk, but some of the examples in this thread have expanded my view!
Hypocritical Finnish drunks with infidelity problems who pretend they’re the shining beacon of morality and ruin people’s lives over cannabis despite drinking themselves unconscious several times a week.
Oddly specific.
Honestly, very generalised from my point of view.
I could list a dozen people with at least a majority of those characterisrics. Most with all of them.
Donald Trump’s interior decoration choices
And exterior, too.
You know it when you see it.
The trashiest thing to me is a loud vehicle being revved and driven by a total asshole
Oh. That was me. Sorry.
Arguing loudly in public. Like having a fight on your front lawn or at a restaurant.
Being a Karen. Very often because it turns into the aforementioned arguing loudly in public but also just the general Karen attitude of how they treat people is trashy.
Rolling coal.
Having a gigantic pickup truck without a need for its towing or hauling capabilities.
Having tons of political affiliation things on your car. Both ways. Not just MAGA. I’d be equally concerned if I saw someone in a tiny smart car flying Bernie Sanders flags with tons of left wing political slogan stickers plastered on it. I get liking the guy, but doing all that is still weird cultist-like shit.
Littering. Literally and figuratively.
I don’t know what figuratively littering is, but I’m with you on most of this.
Easy – leopard print clothing.
I always thought that as well, but my opinion changed when I had to dress for a pretty formal office. Leopard print (in the form of a cardigan or scarf or something similar) lets you bridge the gap between black and brown so you don’t need to buy new, matching clothing and shoes. I still didn’t feel comfortable enough with it to actually wear it, but I don’t have catty (sorry) thoughts when I see leopard print anymore.
Actually, now that I think about it, that made it fall out of my personal definition of trashy, but might make it trashier for some people.
