HAHAHAHA.....That's awesome! It's so true!

Shaggy-haired, tight-jean $10 shoe-loafers, hands stuck in pockets, listening to Arcade Fire and the Klaxons on his iPod. LORDY!

This whole culture of victimhood

being fat != victim of society
being an alcoholic != disease
emo != the world doesnt understand, it understands you quite well, and it thinks your self-entitled moron.


VVVVVVV - I think Uggs are proof that women dress for other women, I've never met a man that liked uggs in any way.

Their coffee isn't that good enough to stand in line for half an hour when theres a place 30 seconds away completely deserted.

Facebook- Liked it for two weeks. Now it sucks. The applications are for 8 year olds.

Uggos- I'm usually fine with most women's styles(see: girls in Lululemon. Its a Godsend). But once in awhile a women's style comes along that just boggles my mind. These have to be the ugliest things ever. Do they have a dogsled parked outside? It's one of those styles that 20 years from now they'll laugh when they see a pic of themselves in em, like that pic of your dad with hair down to his shoulders, a wicked 'stache, and a "Party Naked" t-shirt.

Also: tattoos on the lower back, popped collars, straight-brimmed hats.

Really?

i have never heard an overweight person say they are a "victim of society".

I feel ok saying alcoholism and other physical addictions are, in fact, diseases. it doesn't make them ok or acceptable, but does provide an avenue for treatment.

Emos are ######bags, but I don't know that being a victim of something is part of their shtick.

Just thought it was a strange series of 'fads'.

How about four popped collars?



I hate all the lame New Era caps. I went to buy a new hat for my last holiday and I wasn't sure if I was in a skate shop or a Fubu store. Not enough kids get beat up these days.

No Photoshop necessary.

######baggery doesn't need to be Photoshopped. Sadly, it's a naturally occurring phenomenon.

Edit: I could put your face on his if you really want.

I looked for that picture.... haha. I've seen one with the comment below that is something like: "Cool. You may be cool, but you're not 4-popped collars cool."

Oh, I also hate the fad of everyone trying to be 'random' with everything.

*Dude takes a swig of beer and some gets on his shirt.*

"Oh man! WTF! That was so incredibly random!"

- what the **** are you talking about? It's beer on his shirt! It happens!

fad (fād) Pronunciation Key
n. A fashion that is taken up with great enthusiasm for a brief period of time; a craze

Seems to me something that has been going strong for over 20 years is in no way a fad.

Just because a bunch of old folks don't like something doesn't mean it's fad. Hell no one I know likes classical music, or jazz, or opera, would it be fair to classify that as a fad just becasue I don't like it, and neither do any of my aquaintences?

Most Americans don't like hockey, I guess that must mean it's a fad too eh?
