Anime (Played out, and creepy)
E85 (Horrible on fuel systems)
Hybrid Cars (Maintenance cost, and pollution from mining nickle for batteries outweighs gains)
Green (Decent cause, but is more of a selling point)
Twitter (I don't care that your having coffee with your Mom, or that your dog just burped)
iPhone (Tied to that awful network, but they proved the concept)
Crossovers (they're like a bastard offspring of a station wagon and a SUV)

Young women wearing skin tight tops and baggy sweat pants.

What are some current fads that you strongly dislike? This isn't limited to just clothing.


-Wearing one's pants bellow the butt. (eew)
-High heals in jeans. The concepts don't match, just like "I want to be very thin by current standards" doesn't match with "I want a butt"! Plus, do they want to look comfortable or not? Confused
-Pretending they debate with someone over the phone, outside of privacy. (like while in a store or your car) Oh, is someone supposed to be important there?
-The media and it's screwed up, extremely flawed view of female beauty.

The "Thin is in" fad has gone on, for far too long.

Voluptuous is in now. Haven't you noticed?

ALL fads seem kind of stupid and are annoying to me.

Guys walking around while holding their crotches. The level of stupidity behind this makes me think they never got over their brother/uncle/grandfather saying it'll fall off if they didn't hold it on.

Also, pretty much anything you see on MTV and VH1.

But for the current trend I despise, I'm gonna go with all the vampire crap. Twilight, Vampire Diaries, True Blood, Vampire Chronicles, Vampire Weekend. It's all too much, and most of it is crap.


Am I the only WP member
who likes Vampire Diaries
and True Blood?

The reasons I like True Blood
is because Anna Paquin is in it
and the show was created by
Alan Ball, the man who wrote American Beauty.

As for Twilight, most Twilight fans
can go screw themselves.
Twilight is nothing more than romantic drama nonsense.

At my school there's these things called silly bands, and whenever I ask them what the big deal is about these things are, their only answers are: "I don't know", "Because they're cool",and "Because everybody has them". Also there's this thing at my school called jerking (a dance move) and everybody acts like it's the most important thing on Earth... IT'S JUST A DANCE MOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree, Twilight's "vampires" and their "werewolves" are highly overrated. I can't wait to see how Twilight screws up zombies and swamp creatures (sarcasm).

What what what what?! Please tell me Twilight is NOT touching zombies, please tell me you were joking.

I see that a lot at my school. Some students even come to school in their pajama bottoms! I can't help but wonder if taking the time to make yourself look as trashy as possible has become a new fad.
