I agree on all those things - plus, I'd like to see guys stop wearing their pants sagging off their asses.

Definitely agree on that. No one wants to see some guy's underwear!

You said it! (Groans in disgust.) People should stop wearing their baseball caps on sideways or backwards. It looks dumb, really.

LOL! How about people who walk EVERYWHERE with their cellphones talking their heads off like they are royalty. "No, I will not keep it down because I have a CELLPHONE and I'm really important!"

Yeah cell phones and constant texting. I don't have that many people who I need to be in instaneous contact with. More of the same with the social network sites.

Beauty products for men. I don't want to look pretty.

Justin Bieber, Jonas Brothers, and all "singers" even remotely similar to them
Every single "celebrity" who is famous for doing f**k all (Paris Hilton and the wives of footballers being prime examples)
Big Brother and all other reality shows
Wearing your jeans so low you can see your underwear
Facebook

I'll think of more fairly soon, I'm sure.

Even worse is the newer version which is basically black plastic sunglasses frames with nothing as lenses at all. The hell is the point? It just makes you look stupid.

I never noticed any of that. It does sound stupid, though.

Glasses with really thick rims irk me as well.

I can't stand those ripped blue jeans. I'd buy blue jeans, if they were a solid blue, like in the 1960s.

Teenagers having babies is a trend I want to go away. Lots of teens think having a baby is cool. They think of a baby as a fashion accessory like carrying a poodle in a purse.

And then they show it off "Look at my baaaby!! !" Ugh.
Actually, I think to them it's like a pet. Not a real human being, but just a big attention-getting pet. One that their friends will oooh and aaahh over, and buy accessories for.
I'd seen one gush over how their two-year old little girl has a 'boyfriend' and will dress her up in little 'diva' clothes, and it sickened me.

Another trend that I could see go, is the pressure on others by peers, to lose one's virginity. One of my friend's daughters teased her sister about her virginity, so this girl went and slept with her boyfriend. I would have bitten this teaser's fingers off, I was so incensed! :evil:

It's like this 'fad' is suposed to 'elevate' the person to some sort of 'incrowd status' once achieved, but all it does to me is make them look like sheep.

Torn Jeans- This is supposed to be popular, but it makes the people wearing them look like washed bums.

Crocs and Uggs. I don't care about the shoes, but I hate the names these things have. UUUuggs. Uuugs. Uuuuugggsss. Blech.

Guys in plaid shorts. I refuse to follow the crowd on that one, but I like to blend in.
