What current trends or fads will make people cringe in the future?
Facebook. Twitter. Ugg Boots. Over-sized sunglasses. Miserable model-chic. X-Factor. Big Brother. Mullets (the return of). Ballet Pumps. Emo culture. Sports casual. Man-bags. Celebrity culture.
Or others... Which of these will remain timeless, and which shall become the future 'shoulder pads' for sheer embarrassment factor? "Oh my God. Look at the size of my Twitter in that photo. How shameful." Great answers so far. JJ - good points friend. Piercings.... agh. Smokin' Gun.... I knew it somehow. Make sure your best pair are on for Norris Cole.... LOL New Boots. Come on. Tell your uncle Bridge Over the River Tees. You do that, don't you???? Hypocrite - I did grow up in the death throes of CB radios popularity too... I remember one guy had notions of listening to police conversations but instead got a very fuzzy interception of a taxi. Once. Then it broke. Ads |

Fortunately these are short lived fads...we live in a disposable 'easy-come, easy-go' society...these will be replaced by equally cringe worthy fads every 'season'!
Of your choices I think Facebook will be around for a while to come; Twitter will die an agonising death (we can only hope!) Uggs (Don't get me started on Uggs!!) All the others can die in a steaming vat of 3 month old vomit, laced with carbolic acid! BTW, I love ballet pumps...!! EDIT: ♪♫Go Norris, ♪♫Go Norris!! Ads |

Let's be a touch serious for a moment. Big cringe factor. Both New Labour & the Tories want to lengthen the waiting time to qualify for a retirement pension. By the time you youngsters reach it, it'll probably be 80 or 90 , that's if there is employment in the future. Be careful with your vote. Anyway, I still use Brylcreme as I did when I was a Teddy Boy in the 1950s.

Not that I'm actually guilty of this but, wandering the streets in broad daylight in pyjamas and Ugg boots! What possesses a grown adult to think it's ok to go shopping in their jamas?
No, sorry, my conscious is clear on this one, not guilty! I have occasionally left the house in boudoir attire but only for a romantic assignation, never Sainsburys. Hypocrite, oh, no, C.B Radio! Another part of my murky past uncovered. My handle was Bushbaby, I never got very far with it either but I thought I was so cool. Thanks for that blast from the past, I'd forgotten all about it. |

All the people who are going to vote Tory next year - in 10 years they will deny ever having done it.

Jaffatastic skin. Although they made me cringe in the 80's when sunbeds first took off so maybe it's here to stay....Is 30 years considered a 'fad' ?
Oh and these had me slack jawed - http://media.photobucket.com/image/arm%2...armers.jpg EDIT- Hypocrite..Sexy edge? Well that explains why I was non plussed then. Do you find Avril lavigne attractive ? |
