 Inspired by the above picture posted in the animated gif thread... what are the worst styles, fads, dances, etc., that you've been exposed to, that made you want to jump off a bridge or drive a dagger through another person's heart. The above is one of mine, and I have to say, it wasn't just about the character. I actually liked the show Family Matters, until that spawn came along and ruined it. But the top of my list has to be the ridiculously baggy pants that was in style in the early part of the last decade. I guess they got used to it after awhile, but you could tell that was so awkward for some people that I really think it may be the stupidest fashion ever. Share your pain.

Mullets...The most beautiful and rediculous thing all at the same time.
Edit-I have to add Zubas. Those were totally stupid. However, everytime I am in a gym it seems some muscle head is wearing a pair. It makes me giggle.

Zubas were pants in the late 80s early 90s that were cotton, loose fittings, and had animal prints (mostly zebra) in bright colors. I can't believe they were ever in style. -------------------- QUOTE(Apologistnky @ Nov 4 2010, 10:57 PM) A squirrel cannot carry the rabies virus... but has no trouble carrying the AK-47 assault rifle or the M72 Light Anti-tank weapon ( LAWS rocket)!! :unsure: :lol: |

90% of all Internet fads/memes......luckily I haven't seen most of them in a couple years since I stopped visiting all of the places that featured them. I'm happy now
 Also, I kinda laughed a bit when I opened this thread and the first thing I saw was Steve Urkel

My middle niece (back when I was playing nanny) would wear the jelly shoes and blow her hair out into this huge billowing pile and all you could see were these two little brown eyes peeking out.

Most guys , especially the younger ones that have really taken to this trend, have stick legs anyway. I have another: either "skunk chunk" highlights on girls, or the blonde-on-top with a much darker and longer layer underneath. -------------------- Don't try to argue with an idiot.

If so, my wife doesn't like a pair of my jeans because they are too tight.  Yes, I have chicken legs... 140lbs soaking wet at 5'10". -------------------- |
