Things that will be better for everyone if it didn't exist.

Avenged Sevenfold.

If it didn't exist, the civilized world could live in peace without their shitty music, and M Shadows and Synister Gayts wouldn't have to embarrass themselves with their awful nicknames.

Death. Obvious first answer, we humans disappear from this planet, simply ceasing to exist, after a pitiful hundred years if we're lucky. It's horrifying how many people tend to disagree with this, there's nothing good about it that even remotely compares with the obvious bad.

As for less important, less serious things... well, I'll second the need for sleep one, but I'll modify it to just "the need for non-REM sleep" - result is, people only need to sleep two hours a day, and that entire two hours is actual conscious dream-time, and because it'd be a continuous dream and you'd always be waking up from a dream rather than from unconscious sleep, you'd remember vastly more of many more dreams than currently.

There are issues with those choices... First off, if no one died then the Earth would become massively overpopulated and wouldn't be able to sustain us. Mixed with the fact that if nothing would ever die we could never eat, all plants and animals need to die for us to eat it (barring relatively small animals like insects)

And as for sleep, we need 5-6 hours as a minimum to not suffer any dysfunction or debilitation in our lives. And the only reason REM sleep exists is because we cant stay permanently in stage 3 or 4 sleep, those are the important parts of sleep.

Spiders.

Because they suck.

No, spiders are awesome.

Drugs and tobacco. That is to say illegal drugs like marijuana, cocaine, heroin, etc. All they do is rot people away both physically and mentally until only a lazy, foul-smelling husk remains.

Fuck this idea. You have no idea what the fuck you're talking about.

The US revolution.

I'm sure those territories would have been fine Canadian provinces before they were corrupted by their rebellion. And it would have ended WWII so much faster if Canada could have brought the full weight of all the people in Canada and the US to bear against the axis at the beginning of the war.

Failing that, the US second amendment would be high on my list.

So I guess you're one of those gun-hating Canadians who don't actually know anything about the effects of gun laws on crime rates.

So I guess you are one of those jackarse's who make wild assumptions over nothing.

How has no one mentioned getting rid of Twilight it is the worst piece of vampire fiction I an ever seen, not to mention it technically has bestiality, pedophilia, and necrophilia with the vampires and werewolves.

To everyone saying "Religion" or "Facebook":

The topic was "Better For EVERYONE". If you care to tell me how much better EVERYONE would be without these things, I will happily sit here and be a fly in your perfume. Kthxbai.

OT: Stucco ceilings. I've injured myself on the jaggedness, and can think of no reason you can't just have a smooth ceiling.

Biological warfare (Just leaves any and all wars to how much money a country has)

and some series that have an awesome run then mess up on the last installment

-fanatics/zealots (political, religious, whatever)
-reality TV
- human history. While it is a great source of learning what not to do, it seems that more people use it to accuse a wide range of A-holeness. eh, on second thought this would mean all of our advancements would be gone.
