Subject: Trends that you hope will go out of style soon!

Written By: supercute on 05/25/05 at 4:03 pm

OK for me, I'm sorry but its those dang bracelets that everyone in my school sport (& outside of school it seems) Where I live, you can get 3 for a $1 @ Walgreens but still those things are freakin annoying, especially when kids @ school can't even color code their clothes with the right bracelet...Anyway, they make me tick...

Any thoughts ???

AAAAAARGH! They're so gay, they make Elton John look like Mr Straight Champion 2001-2005!!! every f**ker's wearin' them! I can't stand them. What irritates me more is that they started off as a genuine charity money-raising thing, and then some completely money-greedy queer-bashers came along and thought 'hey, that could make us millions', what a bunch of freaks  >:(

I could do without hip-hop lifestyle trends.

If I had my wishes---

Out of style: gangsta rap, narcissistic hip-hop styles, the 'ho and thug look.
In style: Hardcore sedititious hip-hop based on a Marxist consciousness. 

Let's gather together and overthrow the empire instead of alienating one another, making money in nefarious ways, and buying a Lexus to show off.

Yeah, I could do without all those nasty piercings and tattoos.  I've had girlfriends with these accessories.  I just cheerfully accept them as I know my preferences are in the minority.  My current girlfriend has no tattoos or piercings which is amazing because she's a veteran of the punk scene.
I mean, I don't care for them on guys either, but I don't, er, make love to guys!

Butterfly clips.  They were cool in the late '90s, circa 1998-1999, but now it is getting a little to old.  I know they are pretty, especially on junior high school girls, but when you get into high school; it's time to grow up.

Same thing with Spongebob.  My dad hates it.  ;)

Again i'll add my vote to those freakin bands.. I am gonna color in an elastic band with a biro and scrape HATE EVERYONE in to it.

These bizare kind of half assed mullets people here are starting to have.. they just look a bit odd really.

Guys with Pink shirts!!!!

Sneakers with springs in them.. god they look ridiculous.

I'll agree with tounge piercings. I have several piercings and am gonna get my first tattoo this week or next but tounges are just nasty.

How everyone in England now suddenly loves the inferior 'sport' of Rugby ever since we miraculously won the world cup (and the team has now lost something like 70% of there games).

People over here having NY Yankees enblazoned on everything. I am not jesting here, you will see on an average day, 20 yankees caps per 150 people. I will guarentee that 1 out of 500 of those people will might just know something about the team.
It's like.. YOUR BEING EXPLOITED! They are an assclown team filled with a bunch of assclowns.. pick a different team.. god it pains me to say this but.. wear a cubs hat, at least they don't just try and buy the Series.

Godawful car modifications.. HA! The people that put a spoiler and $500 rims on a piece of crap Ford Escort.

I have many more.. but then I am a bitter hatefull person ;D

I really hate when people wear their pants half way down their backside. It's disgusts me, I just can't stand it. What makes it worse is that these people have belts, but instead of pulling their pants up above their waist and tightening the belt so their pants don't fall down (which was how pants were originally supposed to be worn), they pull their pants down below their backsides and tighten up their belt around their behind so their pants wont fall down any further. It's ridculous. Not only does it look bad, but I just couldn't begin to imagine how uncomfortable it must be to wear your pants down below your backside all day. That is the trend I hope goes out of fashion quick smart. 
;D I agree! Sometimes I feel like giving them a whole roll of toilet paper because they look like they have a "Load" in thier pants ::)

I'd agree with Max on the Gangsta Rap bit. Jailbait chavs (AKA teenage tearaways) in the UK see adults trying to be "ghetto" & copy the dress & actions- the dress ain't a problem, but when teenagers think drugs, robbing people & vandalism is cool, that is. When rap was political, having an "attitude" meant having a social or political conscience, not behaving as anti-socially as possible.

Also, girls with tattoos at the bottom of theirs backs. In my area, it's a very common thing, and it even seems like a bit of a rite of passage to have this done as young as possible, the more years before legal age, the better. It may be to do with the low cut of jeans most people wear, i.e. they feel the need to fill the gap between a belly-top & halfway-down-butt "asssters" (like hipsters, but hang off yo ass rather than yo hips), but sometimes it's not possible to spot a girl in a group without such an adornment. Won't look so good with stretchmarks, kiddies!!

Yep, that's about how I feel, LOL!

Thing is, I could maybe stand it if it were creative or different, but every song is either, "I changed the hubcaps on my pickup truck," or "My wife took my house" etc. ;D

Every song also sounds the same - unlike rock or pop, which is like tons of sub-categories to choose from.

Some of the dumbest country lyrics recently:

"I play chicken with the train, play chicken with the train-train...uh-uh-huh"

"Charlie said he wanted to get married.  But we were only 10 so we had to wait"

"I ain't as good as I once was....(etc)"

"When I think about cheatin, I just think about you leavin...(etc)"

"What's a guy gotta do to get a girl in this town"

I promise I wouldn't even know of these songs if I could help it.

Also the girl equivlant of college sluts and sorority sluts.  Im not sure I could call them human, because due to their increased amount of plastic surgery and cosmetics and syntheticness they are more manaquin than woman.  (yeah, it was a Darth Vader reference lol). 

Basicly I would like to say that I want all the fakeness to stop.

Written By: Bornin87 on 05/27/05 at 4:49 pm

Trends I would like to get rid of:

-The obsession over "pimping out" your car. I don't need a Playstation and HDTV in my trunk, and I hate seeing people driving around in '89 Honda and Chevy sedans with large shiny rims on them, but the body itself is rusted.

-Guido culture. In my school most guidos tend to wear Armani Exchange, so we call them "A|X kids". I hate Nextel walkie-talkies and I hate tight black muscle shirts.

-"Support our Troops" ribbons. What better way to say "Bush/Cheney '04" without actually telling people, then to put a magnetic yellow ribbon on your car. Personally, I liked the flags on radio antennas trend that took place after 9/11 a lot better...at least until people would leave those tattered flags up two years after the attacks.

-Von Dutch hats, and trucker hats in general. The real Von Dutch was a talented artist who would never have sold out his name.

-Laci/Jacko/OJ/Condit tabloid stories. I thought that the media learned their lesson after 9/11 that more political and world affairs coverage should be included, but they failed to listen. Instead we are treated to one celebrity trial after another, and one dissappearing white suburbanite after another.

-McMansions: Companies like Toll Brothers have been propping up their ugly prefab houses that have some ugly combinations of Georgian/Colonial/Renaissance architecture. Fake front-porches and cathedral ceilings at the front doorway are annoying. At least with real mansions there is a sense of oringinallity, and even with the post-war tract houses of the '50s and '60s there was a sense of modesty in them that gave them integrity. In todays newer suburbs (and older ones if you include teardowns) we have none of that.

Hummers and gargantuan SUVS: I don't hate every SUV out there (Jeep, for example, and the GMC Denali and Cadilac Escalade are pretty cool) but I hate seeing these God-awaful monsters on the road when people don't even need them! THe HUmmer h2 is not only huge, but it's ugly, and was never supposed to be for civilians anyway.

Trends I LIKE:

-Ipods and Ipod culture. If it wasn't for the Ipod, I'd stilling be burning all of my mp3s onto blank CDs. Before the Ipod most mp3 player were clunky and could only play up to a gigabyte of music.

-Blogs and their political activism. Regardless of your political leanings the blogs have given anyone with an opinion or a passion for activism a chance to exercise their consitutional rights of free speech. You no longer have to rely on the mainstream media for news.

-Low-rise jeans and girls getting tattoos on their lower backs. I know some people find them unattractive, but if you're young, I think that we should wear them if you want. I don't want girls to start wearing the higher-waist jeans of the '70's or '80s again, because those were ugly.

-Hybrid cars. I'm glad that we're finally breaking away from regular gas-guzzlers, and are starting to wean ourselves off of oil.

-Narrower glasses without frames. Glasses from the '80s and early '90s were too large and out of proportion, so I'm glad that they come down in size since then. I think that the non-frame glass look cool too, but that's just my preference.

While I agree that people should be educated on sex, i still think it should be up to the parents and not the students. I can't vouch for all families, but I believe sex should be saved for marriage. However, I realize a slight majority (IMHO) get impatient or ticked off with marriage altogether. Abstainence isn't bullcrap, as you say Alcoholica. But those that preach it shouldn't advertise it as a pat, simple solution for birth control. :(

Actually i think it should be up to the Government. Parents live in a sheltered world in which there children are perfectly safe, as long as they do EXACTLY! what they're told.. this isn't quite true.. lol.
You may believe it should be saved for marriage, and telling your kids that is one thing.. However, you tell a 16 year old guy that he CANNOT HAVE SEX! He is gonna bust hump to go and do it.

I agree with your conclusion, THAT! is the problem. It's more to do with Lazy teachers i think.
It's not part of there job to teach students about sex.. so they say don't do it.

Phsha, like that's gonna work. In 3 years, we had one.. yes.. ONE! Sex -Ed class.. this was from the age of 13 - 16. The city i live in, Leicester has more Teen Pregnancies that just about any city in the country (per capita). This says something.

The "Mainstream Hip Hop" culture.
The fake, plastic surgery look.
The "Fearmongering" in our society.
The whole "Abstinence is cool" attitude.
Reality TV

and last but not least:


I agree.  I think you are alluding to the fuddy-duddy moralism and hypocrisy within the "abstinence is cool" attitude.  If I elaborate on that, I would wax too political for this side of the board.  Suffice it to say "abstinence" is neither cool nor uncool.  It's just a good idea.  For young people it is the safer choice emotionallly and health-wise.  The same is true for adults to a large extent, however, the teenage mind is still physically, mentally, and spiritually maturing.  Teens have fewer resources with which to cope with the emotional entanglements that are inherent in sexual relationships.
The problem with abstinence education is it relies on "self-restraint," which is not a bad thing.  We Americans could do with more self-restraint, especially me!  The problem is, "abstinence only" provides only shame and ignorance should your primal urges override your restraint! 
Maybe the conservatives are right on this one.  Before the nefarious 1960s, teens never had sex, and never got pregnant, right?  Right!  That settles it, next!

I agree about the fake look.  It is so sad the way fourteen year olds want boob jobs.  It speaks to the ever-narrowing beauty standards we hold.  I like breasts of all sizes and shapes.  Besides, whatever happened to "true beauty comes from the inside."  Feh, that's just something ugly guys like me say to feel better about ourselves, right?

4.Electronic music being kept underground(we DO exist!)
5.Lifelessness in current electronic music

If you want electronic music that is lively, not lifeless, I have a couple of links to good places to start your search.  Remember, though, this isn't "electronica," this isn't thump-thump-thump music for dance clubs, this is electronic music.

I couldn't agree more. Look @ it this way. If more of my peers (13+ & I'm 17 next July), abstained from sex & had the correct information, they'd be sparing themselves of heartbreak, emotional confusion that winds up damagaing them, disease, & the obvious: pregnancy. Honestly, I think that hormones & the "mystery of sex" triggers them to "do it", I could be wrong though, but I do believe that this is one definite reason reason why. Throughout my entire high school career (I'm a senior now) I have seen about 10 pregnant girls roaming the halls, w/ most of them dropping out, (I actually knew 2 of them who had their babies & came back to graduate, they were seniors)

I can understand the peer pressure because there is A LOT of it but it also depends on the people you "hang with" in school. If you look @ high schools & the girls who are pregnant, you can tell the environments from which they come. That too plays a big part. My friends & I aren't religious, more "spiritual", but we have our goals & many of us come from very involved families. I understand that all of us may not keep our pledges but I plan to, just because I want to truly love the one I'm with & savor my experience. So in words: I can wait yet I can't wait.

Sorry for such a long post, but maybe that will help clear up a lot of the "question marks" regarding the whole "abstinence is cool attitude".

What is the "Guido" culture?  ???


think the Gotti Boys. 

The guido culture is a style that has overtaken many people, causing them all to act, look, and be the same.  It's a conforming force and takes away all individualism in a person and replaces it with whatever 50 Cent or Paul Oakenfold says is cool. 

These are the people who put on a spoiler that is 12 times too big for their car.  These are the people who believe it is important to have expensive rims and a loud subwoofer in their car, because that's what attracts girls.  Its a style based purely on the desire to get girls, but here's the problem, its based on falsehoods and fantasy.  These "Guidos" are tools to whatever their cultural heroes tell them to do.  They repress anything that might make them different from one another and refuse to think on their own.  A whole facade of fakeness.  I hate it. 

Plus they use the term "Bro" a lot.

White People talking like they were black.  People today do not know what a real ghetto was. It was Warsaw. in WWII


A ghetto is defined as a place where poor people are "placed". In addition, it's a place where minorities are allocated (e.g. Blacks, Jews). Therefore, it can be found here in America or any neck of the world. Plus, there's no such thing as talking "black".

How about this one: heavy chicks wearing low-riders and forcing people to see their massive "love handles"? It's called a mirror, get one.

I live in Houston,Texas and all I see is a sea of Pickup Trucks and big SUV's, and it sucks when you're in a car and can't see over on one of those gas guzzler's. No offense to all the Pickup and SUV owner's, but SUV's are nothing more than fancy-looking minivan's and show only be driven by parents with 20 kids who can't fit them all in a car and Pickup Trucks should only be used in labor-type work such as moving furniture, loading building materials and dead game!

This problem is a two way street gender wise.  It seems that spenders know who they can go to to get what they want, it is the ones who are spending who have to put on the breaks and say enough is enough.  If
she(he) takes off then you are better off.  Figure out what she(he) wants, you or the wallet.  You may not
like the answer but you are better off knowing.  I actually have a very good friend who is like that and she has run through many a mans savings,  I can't believe they put up with it, but they did(do). Alot of it is they want to
be the one with the great looking chick.  At some point you gotta stop blaming Her(him) and start blaming the fool.  Fool me once your the a$$hole, fool me twice I'm the a$$hole. ;)

Those body kits on cars are getting out of hand. Its just too common. I remember Pontiac in the 90's used to get slammed by the automotive press for putting cladding on their cars. Now every tuner buts extra body effects on the previous generation Acura TL, mid to late 90's Civic Coupe, and the current Accord Coupe. Its getting too crazy with the bodykits now. In the 90's it was ok. Now some of the stuff people put on their cars is just downright outlandish.

Baggy Pants: its nice when you are in High School but when you are in your 20's get rid of them. Your time has passed!

Generic gangsta rap! Its been around so long now its time to go!

Women Celebrities or women in general getting out of hand with plastic surgerys. The more work you do to your body the less good you look. Some of these people don't even need surgeries. I could understand if you have a deformaty. Women 18 or under getting implants! Your body is still growing. Wait until you grow till you decide something like that.  I am a guy myself and the shape of my face bothered me for years especially in middle school. I finally grew into it and I look good I think(the best I ever looked) and I am 25.
