Alright, so I have a sibling a few years younger than me, and a friend we both share that’s between us in age.
We were on a country drive and I loved all the new songs they found, so I went ahead and asked them what the names of the songs were, and I added them to my Spotify playlist. Because yk, I like the song, so I wanna listen to the song in the future, so I add the song to my playlist like a normal person; simple bs.
Well my sibling in a non-joking manner looked at me and cringed back, and told me how that was “negative aura.”
I’m Gen Z, I know all the stupid slang shit, but I had to think for a second about what part of what I just did was negative aura.
My sibling then explains how adding a new song to your Spotify playlist infront of people is negative aura? And my friend just nodded along with what they said.
Is this a new thing I completely missed out on? I have NEVER heard of such a stupid ass thing in my life. Adding a song to your playlist is embarrasing now?😭???
Sibling said I need to add songs to my playlist in private.
Anyone willing to explain? Or confirm that this is an actual thing, and that they’re not making it up? If our generation is this far down the stupid-hole, I’ve lost all hope.

what
It’s a song, not porn, he should be happy you like his music.
NW. I have two teenagers. Occasionally I’ll play a song and they’ll ask what it is, pull out their phones, and add it. Occasionally they’ll tell me they want to listen to a song they found. Sometimes it’s good and I’ll add it.
I guess if someone was trying to fit in and starts adding everything just to seem cool, but even that seems like a stretch.
“Oh, far out. I don’t really believe in astrology, personally. Thanks for the songs.”
Sounds like the classic teen cringe thing of feeling ownership over the music you found and gatekeeping (I’m old so idk about kids these days)
I was going to post that the world is getting dumber but actually, there has always been dumb nonsense in every generation. This is among the latest stupid young people shit that they’ll grow out of (sometimes into old people shit unfortunately).
Thjs sounds like the 21st century of ‘stealing his soul’ by adding some of his songs to your playlist. Yes, stupid shit.
Ignore and move on. Unless you were actually planning to use these songs to steal his soul – don’t do that. It isn’t cool.
Anyone is free to add or delete songs on their playlist anytime they want. No negative energy! I would hate to think that I was stuck with the same songs for the rest of my life. Your sibling is crazy.
Your sibling’s “explanation” was to just repeat what they already said? ….I don’t think you need to spend so much energy worrying about what teenagers think is cool.
I’m gen X….and I don’t know what the hell they’re talking about!! I love finding new music, and I’m happy if someone else likes what I’m listening to. Music is a joy that should be shared.
This sounds like someone who is desperate to be upset over something but who has absolutely nothing going on in their life
So we’re gatekeeping songs now?
What has the world come to?
Stop caring what children think, my guy.
This is the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard
This whole conversation is just stupid.
Uh, that is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard, i add new songs from people all the time, i guess my aura is in the trenches
