What Was The Shortest Lived Fad?

[Gvac]

Fads come and go, and by definition they don't last long. I think the shortest life span I've ever seen, though, is WeeWorld.

Just a few short months ago it was the latest craze. Everyone had a Wee page.

Now, no one uses it.

Can you remember anything that burst onto the scene only to die just as quickly?

Yes! I was gonna say snap bracelets or POGS

Didn't they say that the fabric around the snap bracelet would wear and the sharp snappy thing inside could slit your wrists?

Fuk I hate that when you see a thread question and you know you have the only right answer... then you read down and you realize someone nailed it before you.

Never seen such a short fad as someone wearing clothes that were tailored to be worn forwards, worn backwards. Evidently their love for for terrible pop music was not as strong as their love of not being violently uncomfortable.

Back in my High School anyone rocking backards pants rocked it for no more than 3 days. Hell even the tard who rocked hammer pants lasted longer.

this was a short fad because sure, you looked cool when you dressed up and looked in the mirror, but you realized how gay this was when 15 minutes later, you had to piss and it hit you that you'd have to drop your draws to take a leak.

HAHAH yea i forgot all about that. remember swing clubs were starting to pop up all over the place, and people were buying those stupid shoes and dressing like it was the 1920's

Swing clubs are still all over the place in NYC and LA and Chicago just have to know where to go. And plenty of people still have zoot suits and wingtips, yours truly included.

yea but mid-90's so many people were getting into it who never stuck with it. there are still people to listen to disco, but what makes it a fad is when bandwagon hoppers jump on and off

[LiddyRules]

And I happen to think that 1920s wear is pretty cool. Maybe not wing tips but the types of suits and hats were neat. But the dancing is silly. But lots of people were into it for like a week and then it stopped, that's what made it a fad.
