Arm bands. I probably read or watched too much fantasy as a kid. For a while I braided leather arm bands and wore them. Mostly they were covered by whatever I was wearing. Then all the Brohs started getting arm band tattoos and it killed it for me. I recently said fuck it, and have a pounded metal arm band and I love it!

I've never heard that one before. Kinda get it though. I bought a surplus army jacket and the description said some of them come with Austrian army logo on the shoulder. Well mine did come with one and I like it though I'm somewhat worried someone might see that as cringe but I justify it by the fact that it was already there and I didn't attach it.
ITT: People who want to cross-dress and relive their childhood. I heartily approve of all of it.
Farting in public. My friends got the view that it's only a natural thing to do, so when we're together we just do it without judging each other. The majority of people don't think like it, i guess most find it digusting or take it as a reason to mock you. I don't understand how we ended up like that. Guess humanity still has to grow up a little more :D
I used to find it funny and do it around friends/family, but more recently the smell has been far more disgusting to me and I have to put on an N95 or leave the room. It's unfortunate that I have a lost a source of such jollity and mirth.

Anything criminal.
Really don't need to be judged for that stuff.
Getting onto HRPT. I'd need to get to a field with unobstructed view of sky. Now imagine walking through the city with an 80cm satellite dish.
People stare weirdly even if I am just standing in middle of soccer field for 15 minutes with a V-Dipole to receive APT/LRPT.
Speaking of APT, theoretically I have beautiful pass of NOAA-18 in a little over an hour. (Edit: Got that one: https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/2767357)
Hmmm...

Crime, I don't like being judged as guilty.
Where do I start with this one? I have so much to circumventing I would have to do if I want to be myself, and that's not really anyone's fault either (so nothing with a solution). The last thing you mentioned is a fairly good example, I'm locked in certain aesthetics. I can't unpack myself in someone's presence much of the time. I can't communicate without fear of messing up. I can't hypothetically hone certain things I arguably should've honed. I could list these things. I do try going against this pattern and only a few things worked out.
