Why do so many kids hop on every new trend? - BOY - 11-15-2012 08:50 AM
Nike, Hollister, LRG, snapbacks, Jordans, and Vans, I see them everywhere. Swag and yolo, I hear those words everywhere. Kids are so unoriginal these days. They hop on every trend. Like for example if the new trend was going out in public with your underwear, kids would do it. I'm so sick of them.

Kids have always hopped on trends. You would have too when you were that age. Its just that with the current internet age, the trends are spreading further, rather than being only school localized, or other small groups. Blame Facebook/Tumblr/Twitter/Youtube etc.

If they didn't, then it would not be a trend.
Humans are like that, and adolescents are more so, due to hormones that drive them to fit in with their peers.

I can understand that a lot of people copy what others are doing, but there IS people who actually like the thing. Just because theres so many useless idiots walking around trying to look like everyone else does that mean those of us who honestly like the store or brand should suddenly stop??
I'm 17 and really the only thing on your list i like is Hollister and sometimes Vans.
And i also don't say new words like swag and yolo.
Hollister just happens to be my "style" and what i like and think is cute, the copy-cats and "trend followers" are not gonna stop me from being me.
