uncool
Far from trendy
Uncool describes behavior, attitudes, or things that lack social appeal or violate unspoken norms of what's acceptable.
It can mean unfashionable or out of touch: Dad's jokes are so uncool.
It also describes conduct that crosses a line: It was uncool of her to share that without asking.
The word carries a casual, often youthful tone.
