My shot:
White guys and girls: acting like you are persecuted minority, aka be emo.
Every minority: be black. |
what is this emo thing? i looked it up in urbandictionary and it said something about tight sweaters and horn-rimmed glasses. this is a sub-culture trend, like hip-hop or skaters?:wtf::conf: |

^^^yes, except its cool to be whiny and cry and moan even though all the people that are in on this are middle class white schoolkids who dont have a damn thing to whine about.
Last year around this time the college crowd was all about taking some aderol, blue pills, sometimes crushed up, they help you think.
All of the girls have taken to mimicking paris hilton, stupid spoiled whore who is not good at anything yet is still rich and famous anyway.
Hip hop is the huge music, the snoop dog and destiny's child videos that are on heavy rotation at the moment are seen as "the hot " by most people.
LOSTA christians, who flaunt their religion but don't follow it. Christianity is like some symbol for a good person instead of a belief that people are dedicated to following, they only use christian principles when they are convinient(such as forming their own little subculture of happy white kids with goofy bracelets, t-shirts, bumper stickers, cross necklaces, and inferior music that only gets popular because it has about jesus in it)
Last year it was cool to be gay, now being rich is the new gay
Clothing stores sell slutty outfits to little girls that people in their twenties would never wear in public.
Cadillac escalade, hummer, ford excursion are the hottest cars, the drivers of these cars almost always use a cellphone when they are driving, so be careful and try and stay away from other drivers unless you are sure that they are paying attention.
The newest cellphone is this "blackberry" which also grabs people's vision as well as their speech, so if u see someone driving with a black square in their had, shoot them before they run you over.
Dont make hand signals to city kids while you are riding on busses.
If I had to sum up the dominant trends in one word, then that would would be selfishness(with greed coming at a close second). |

My Chemical Romance is amazing. My friends toured with them and Face to Face all summer, not only are they cool people but their tunes are wikkid. The rest of that you said was true, aside from drugs; that's your prerogative.
edit - plug Seconds to Go--Best band to come out of London, Ontario in a while. |

I'm not one to keep up on the trends but heres my two cents.
While the yellow livestrong bracelets are kinda "in" right now (although they are waning in popularity since the bicycle races are over), the whole thing was for a good cause. And I'd much rather spend a buck on a bracelet to help fight testicular cancer than to spend a buck and continue some of the worthless trends that are goin on right now.
As for wigga's, how is this new? this has been around for years.
All the other ones I really dont care in disputing or re-affirming because that would only add fuel to their trendiness.
... Oh yea one thing I noticed they past month or so were those damn Eskimo looking boots, who the hells Idea was that? They have to be the ugliest thing I've ever seen. |

There called Ug boots and there from australia. They are really comfortable and they keep constant temperature inside the boot so you can wear them in the summer and in the winter comfortably.
dem boots are sold out everywhere |
