What's the current fad in your school?

[SharkAttack]

I've been out of high school for 4 years, middle school for 8 and elementary school for 11. When I was doing yardwork today I was thinking about fads and what children/teens in school today are into and whether or not I'd find the fad cool or plain dumb.

It seems to me the better fads took place the younger I was. Yo-Yo's, Gigapets, and Tec-Decks are the 3 biggest ones I can remember; but they were all elementary/middle school. In high school I don't think anything was really big or unique.

 

[S l o X]

the "i love boobies" bands are in.

and the squiggly rubber bands. i have three, all from three different girls i know.

pink / red / lavender kind of. i don't wear em' much if ever though.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

I just graduated a few days ago


Though, animal bands, brand name crap seems to be in. So does being a moron...

 

[cutter]

Gigapets

God I feel so old now. I explicitly remember those incessantly beeping things back when I was in grade school. Almost everyone seemed to have one keychained to their backpack -_-

 

[ndayday]

Plaid, work boots, and Carhartts.
Camo too sometimes.

**** my school.

 

[Proud_Smash_N00b]

Pokemon and flannels

 

[WB40]

...humping someone's corpse after you kill them in CoD 6.

 

[The Drifter]

Smoking in no smoking zones seems to be in at my college

 

[OFY]

At college it's all about hipsters and pokemon pretty much.

Both of which I fall into

 

[RuNNing Riot]

What to revise for for our absolute ultimate final final final exams of compulsory schooling.

As you can see, no pressure, right?

 

[Dragoon Fighter]

I do not pay enough attension to the people at my school to figure out there fads, However my brother is into this devices called silly bands. There value is completely lost on me for there is no logical benefit which I can see. At least the hobbies I have benefit me In some way an example would be SSBM, it takes good reflexes, skill, and tactics. Such qualites help keep the mind sharp. However as far as I can tell with this silly bands, other than pleasing the hoarding instint it really does not help at all (In my opinon pleasing the hoarding instint is not really a benefit.)

 

[Jim Morrison]

alcohol obviously.

 

[mzink*]

Those silly bandz (animal bracelets) are spreading ringworm around my sisters school lol. Stupid fads.

 

[F8AL]

Playing Farmville on Facebook in the computer labs and the library.

 

[Dru2]

Sillybands, you know, those shaped rubber wristbands....wtf did these come from? My sister literally has a total of 80 and wears them all at one time.

 

[Indigo Jeans]

People have shaped rubber wristlets.

So far I have a giraffe, a Loch Ness monster that's really a seal, a bear that's supposedly a hippopotomus, two dragons, a kangaroo, and a duck.

And also piercings.

I'm hoping to get snakebites. But I want dimples.

 

[highfive]

shirts and bracelets that say "I <3 boobies". They are actually allowed since they're actually supporting breast cancer awareness.

(sigh) do people have nothing better to do?

That's what I wanna know. It's like sillybands came out of nowhere. Seriously.

Please tell me you're joking about that. I say those braclets and shirts support pervertedness awareness.

 

[soju]

w00t my school is actually old fashion ghetto still ;D
shirts large enough to go to your knees, no flannels or guys with tight jeans to be seen, everyone wearing sweatpants, jeans sagging past the buttcrack

*sniff**sniff* im so proud ;D

 

[F8AL]

(sigh) do people have nothing better to do?

I don't play that kind of stuff, but whenever I walk past people with their laptops open or go into a computer lab at school, it's either they're on Facebook, YouTube, playing Farmville or solitaire. Sometimes I see them playing Starcraft, CS:S or MW2.

 

[Lucian]

Being a Dou**e

 

[Colonel Cuddles]

Hmmm lets see. Sexting, weaponized pieces of glass, drugs, and Sillybands.

 

[Melfice z]

Being a Dou**e

I saw this as soon as the thought came to my head!

yes this and drugs... :/ sadly

 

[greenblob]

People have started wearing those weird rubber bands that are shaped like stuff, so I wore a regular rubber band around my wrist. When asked what shape mine is, I take it off and tell them, "It's a circle!"

 

[ƸArcher¤AngelusƷ]

whats fad at my school are the guys wearing skinny jeans and like almost every one haveing stretchers for there ears and haveing snake bites as well as wearing striped or checkers patterned shirts

 

[#HBC | Gorf]

This was my school prior to summer break:

Everybody had a freakin iPhone (besides me, of course)
Everybody had those shaped rubber bands (I have four lol)
Every girl wore those sandals with the strap going down their foot.
Every black guy wore jordans.
Almost every guy wore skinnies (I wore skinnies, but not too skinny. Good fitting skinnies.
Most girls wore shirts exposing cleavage.
Every guy either had a fade and tape (me), or long Justin Bieber length hair.
Oh, and weed too. Everybody was doing that s***.
That's about it.

 

[Tacel]

Sillybands.
I promised myself that I'd never have one.
I lied.

 

[Saltix]

Before I graduated, the clothing trend was
Polo Shirts,
Khaki or Cargo shorts
Sperrys
and Black Nike Socks

LOL

 

[Fatmanonice]

I'm in college so I really don't have to put up with fads anymore, thank God. The only thing that people seem to mindlessly obsess over is movies. For example, Zombieland and the Hangover were movies that people couldn't shut up about last year.

 

[SuperBowser]

I guess people like to whine about exams.

There's too many different groups in my year to actually have a fad.

 

[Rychu]

Girls dressing like sluts.

Short Short Shorts, No bra, exposed clevege(cant spell), Tons of makeup.

Its like going to school with 1000 Snookies from Jersey Shore. at first i Thought i'd be into it, but it just makes me feel sorry for their parents and their low self-esteem.

 

[#HBC | Gorf]

Sounded good, til makeup.

wat school do u go to

 

[Rychu]

wat school do u go to

Hobart High School. This isnt in school, though, just outside, during weekends and after school head.

 

[Mr.Freeman]

Seems like everything everyone has ever said goes on at my crapshack of a school.

Drugs are more prevalent, though, than all the other stupid fads.

 

[#HBC | Gorf]

Yea but when you guys say drugs, do you mean DRUGS, or do you mean like weed and alcohol?

Alcohol and weed are way better than the other drugs out there. I used to do weed a lot, but the only bad thing about doing it is the label you get. Same thing with drinking. But at least it's a lot safer than coke or meth and s*** like that.

So many people in my school do weed. So many people drink. I don't do any of them (anymore), I'm not in a rush to have sex, and I'm doing decently well in school. I was still doing well in school, even with the weed. In fact, in some places, I was doing better.

And at least weed's not addictive, and even though alcohol is, the side effects aren't as worse as, say, heroin.

It might sound like I'm getting off topic, but I HATE it when people generalize that stuff.

 

[evileric]

i hate drugs and alcohol
