Ridiculous Fads

Re: =D

RE: hypercolour t-shirts. My mums best friend used to wear one, but she never wore a bra, so she always had two big colour change spots over her breasts...heh.

RE: other fads:

I was a rollerskater too, but i competed in artistic, dance & speed-skating for nearly 10 years. I had fluro pink and white speedskates with fluro pink wheels :) My boot-skates were boring but cost $800 :\

Wearing different coloured fluro socks & fluro shoe-laces.

Rollers with rainbow laces (i so trying to be Fiona Horne from DefFX when i wore my Rollers)

Skorts.

Waistcoats

Cut-Off Jeans

Stussy Hats

When i was in high school, i never had a pair, but EVERYONE seemed to wear those horrendous cross-colours jeans (ie, Red with green stitching, purple with yellow stitching).

I was a big fan of freestyle bmxing. The church at the top of the hill on our street had a bmx track that all the neighbourhood kids used to look after, it had been there for years. We'd spend all weekend at it.

Oh god.. please, don't. I can't *stand* that look. It's so try-hard and frankly, extremely unattractive. Pamela Anderson anyone? ;)

Re: the turtles..... jeez I really opened up a can o' worms there didn't I! I had no idea there was so much love for the turtles! Do you think they'd still be teenagers now, or would they be Young Adult Ninja Turtles, Disillusioned Twenty-something Ninja Turtles or perhaps Cranky Middle-aged Ninja Turtles?

Pffffttt!

thats nothing, i was so poor as a kid, my parents couldnt afford to buy me any toys. Its a good thing i'm a boy otherwise i wouldn't have had anything to play with.

heh. i'm writing my first editorial for my uni mag about how much i hate fucking von dutch. i might post it in misc. rants later sometime ;)
 
^^ you might want to point out how the real von dutch was actually extremely hateful towards anyone not of aryan blood and would be appalled by people of colour wearing merchandise with his name across it

his art, however, is awesome. too bad his name is exploited in such a way he would never condone
 
^^^ awesome. any links?

the main thrust, so far, of my argument is the fact that much of their "fashion" is basically ten-dollar target t-shirts with shitty 'von dutch' logo transfers on them.

so that point might help.
 
tazos, jelly sandals, tamagochi's, slap bands and shoes with lights (I had pink ones they were fucking awsome)
 
von dutch is a ridiculous fad
and so is any clothing with reverse-stitching (stitching on the outside).
i mean really, this concept doesnt make a whole lot of sense.

does anyone remember the phase of having your belt hanging out?
The belt would be done up, but the 'extra bit' was allowed to hang down next to your crotch,
instead of going back through the loophole in your pants and sitting neatly on the waistline.
that explanation sucked,
but im sure you remember the intense stupidity that was involved with this 'rollerblader style'.

hmmm, there are so many ridiculous fads that i will just list them:
inflateable furniture
camo gear
fluffy/furry/fuzzy stuff
cheese
tight shirts (recent fad that was replaced by pink shirts)
fcuk
bubble tape
coffee
spongebob square pants
loafers
erroneous spoiler, body kit and personalised plates on an imported shitbox
the macarena
war in afghanistan
sushi train
omc and 'how bizarre' (that song was number 1 for way too long)
3/4 pants
talking about dandenong
hawaiian shirts
big mouth billy bass
the coke can that danced, sang and/or played the guitar
having anything larger than 6cm x 6xm hanging from your rear-vision mirror
'pre-faded' jeans (diesel etc.)
vcr's
nik nak's (baked not fried)
bovine/leopard-print stuff
and soft porn

also, getting your photo taken in a little booth
then paying for cards and stickers with your own face on them
that is just stupid.

devil sticks, yo-ho diablos and the last scooter fad (1994-1997).
not to be confused with the current scooter fad that is about to end (2001-2004).

cargo pants were one of the only clothing fads that was actually practical ..
but good luck trying to buy a pair at the moment.

hmmm,
reality television.
nw (the magazine) and et (the tv show).
going to university and/or working.
war in iraq.
protesting about war in iraq.
buying cds, dvds and movie tickets.
gst.
are all ridiculous fads.

but honestly,
the most ridiculous fad would have to be bottled water.

:X :D
 
^^^How dare you slander the good names of cheese, talking about dandenong and pink shirts as being fads!!! These are things I hold very close to my heart and I know many others do too ;)
I know there is nothing more I enjoy than sitting down to some cheese and crackers wearing my tight pink shirt and having an in depth discussion about the psyche, personna and hidden undertones of the great south eastern suburb, "melbournes second city", the one the only Dandenong.

But..but I like all those things... :(

Now musical christmas/birthday cards, there's an annoying and thankfully no longer with us fad...

(and I am also down on hating the Von Dutch label while we're at it....)
