Die, Fad, Die!
Metrosexual - If you do not think this was a fad, move to Massachussetts. It’s inevitable.
Saying “Hella” - Seriously, it was hella lame.
Atkins Diets - It sounds cool when you get to eat bacon wrapped burger patties, but it’s really not as good as it sounds.
Budweiser Wassup Commericals - Drink our beer and you will be an annoying drunk!
With those fads, dead and gone, here is my wishlist of fads that I wish would die.
World Poker Tour - It’s a card game! You play it! You don’t watch it on television, and more importantly, you don’t skip on showing real sports to air it.
Reality TV - Does anyone else really care anymore what happens when you put a gay guy, a Jewish girl, a black guy, and a promiscuous girl together in the same house?
Disease Bracelets - The marketing behind these damn things probably costs more than they make selling the bracelents. Sure awareness is important, but stop wasting money when you could be spending it to reach a cure. Also, it doesn’t make you a better person to wear these bracelets, and it doesn’t mean I want you to lose a testicle if I don’t wear one.
Hybrid Vehicles - There is nothing inherently wrong with these vehicles, but lower the price tag! The money you save on gas puts you at a break even point if you’re lucky. It also doesn’t make you a better person to drive one of these things.
Now, here is my wishlist of fads that I wish would develop, even if for just a little while.
Margarita Mondays - I think I will start this one myself.
Topless Tuesdays - I know there is bad with the good, but such is life.
Fish Tanks - Every home and office should have one of these. Perhaps this is just a fad for me, but they’re cool to look at and so calming.
There are certainly more things I would like to see more commonly in life, even if they are just temporary.

jerk, people still say hella up here, and they make fun of people who say “its the bomb”, “there’s a grip of X”, or whatever else you guys say down there. ;) don’t rule it out as dead yet!
As for hybrids, I don’t care much for the vehicles themselves, but the pious, self righteous, fart-smelling hippie drivers behind the cars piss me off. same thing as bmws, I guess.
