5. “Not knowing something. It’s not shameful to admit it.”

6. “Being “basic” in the sense that you have likes and hobbies similar to a group of people.”

7. “Disappointing your parents or friends by your life decisions. Usually, they come around in time when they see what you chose is what makes you happy and that is what they really wanted in the end anyway.

8. “MSG. That’s it.”

9. “Going to dinner or a movie alone.”

15. “Disliking your family. If your family always have been a bunch of assholes to you, what is the sense of even having respect for them?”

16. “Defending yourself against a customer who is extremely rude.”

17. “Breakups. Sometimes it’s better to end things instead of trying to hold a failing relationship together.”

18. “Not being super ambitious about your work/career.”

19. “The stigma behind talking about your pay with fellow coworkers. In the states, it is legal, by talking about your wages you help ensure you and co-workers are being paid fairly.”

20. “Breaking tradition. It’s important to question why we do things and not just go along with it “because it’s been like that for years.”
