Re: past and present fads
At the current moment:
Twilight came in as soon as people heard about the movie. Before you go and bash me on my siggy - I first read it way back in 2006, right after it came out, before anyone had heard of Edward Cullen at our school.
So there.
AmEagle, Aeropostale, Hollister, etc... It's overrated to me, like spending that extra $6 to get a plain white tee shirt when you can get the exact same thing at Wal Mart and no one would know unless you left the tag sticking out.
Facebook is HUGE right now. I hardly ever check mine, so my friends yell at me for it...
...And all of a sudden, since I knitted myself a pair of awesome, fuzzy, fingerless mitts, knitting is in. I had about 6 people ask me "Where'd you get those gloves?" and I was like, "I knitted them." and they were like, "oh." The next week, I observed at least two people wearing homemade scarves. I s'pose they're trying to work their way up to mittens. xD

Re: past and present fads
Another fad appears to be the usage of multiple bright colors when typing, as observed from your post and sig.diamondplatinum wrote:8th grade...

Re: past and present fads
You're really far behind socially. Pokemon is now the new "Thing" (And has been since 1st grade.)
