 FReeper Canteen: Worst Trends/Fads! Hope They Never Come Back....

 


You've been there. We've all been there. It's the moment you know that you've either gotten older or wiser. (Or both!) You know you're not alone in your thinking. Surely there are millions of silent sufferers that feel your pain. Deep down inside you'd like to throttle the idiot or idiots that came up with the idea or product. Surely there are special places reserved for such stupidity.

What are we talking about?
Trends and Fads!!

Compiling a list from MoJo's military neighbors:

Here are trends and fads they'd be thankful never to see again!
See if you can figure out the age group as well. Hehe!!

Parachute pants
Bellbottoms
SpongeBob (This is downright hateful, huh? Hehe)
Singing kids shows (This is from a single Sailor.)
Wiring of any sort.
Disco music
Rap music
Country music
Tie Dyed clothing
New Coke/Old Coke
Hawaiian shirts
Non alcoholic beer (One of our Sailors!)
Mood bracelets
fishnet clothing
Charms
jelly bracelets (Sorry! They came back!)
baggy pants on women (Our nice Marine neighbor)
Hula hoops
Garbage Pail Kids (Awww....)
Smurfs (This is too much..hehe!)
pink Converse High Top shoes
Record players
8 Tracks (This is from our oldest neighbor in the group. Hehe!)
striped clothing of any type
Hairspray people
Neon clothing of any sort.
 

You get the idea!
 

Thanks go out to:
Jennifer, Wayne, Carmine, Rick, Joe, Hop, Aaron, Angie, and Dave!
Thank you for your service to America!
Godspeed to our neighbors currently deployed!
