Top Ten Fad Faux Paus!

Okay - here is my list! Enjoy! :)

1) Leg warmers - Hello! By the time you got them on and situated correctly, it was time to take them off! LOL!
2) Mullets - need I say more! LOL! Plus, ANY 80's hair "do" is probably part of my #2! I was thinking of the "feathered back" on the sides look and the hair sprayed, sticking up to the moon, "do" that needed AquaNet to stay! LOL!
3) Pet rock - what is the point? Then again, maybe, whoever invented this, had the "perfect" point! No care is needed and you can still say you have a pet! Can I do this w/my kids??!! LOL! :))
4) Thongs - Hello, again!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHO WEARS THIS!!!! TRULY!!!!! And if you do, how comfortable is it, really?! 'Cause it soooooooo does NOT look comfy! It looks like it would ride completely and totally UP MY BUTT CRACK!!!!!! LOL! But, then again, maybe that is just me! :))
5) Low rise jeans - invented by Britney Spears - THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I am being sarcastic, of course! LOL! Let me just say - I have a story for this, too! How about bending over at Cosi (not realizing you have low rise jeans on, 'cause that is all you can find to wear at the store, and you are also wearing BIG GRANDMA UNDERWEAR!!!!! And the two just DO NOT GO TOGETHER, but the grandma underwear just feel soooooooo right - you have to wear them! You have on a long shirt - so who is gonna even know?! Right?! Well, pretty much everyone! I have to change Jacob's diaper and I am bending over - forgetting what I am wearing (apparently my shirt was NOT long enough). I am soooooo sure that was a sight for whoever looked my way! Btw, I was changing him in a public place - not the restroom 'cause I was waiting for someone and didn't want to miss them - otherwise it wouldn't have been so bad (I would have been standing at a diaper station instead). Serves me right, huh?!
6) Thigh master - did this do anyone any good at all? Mine just sat and served as a decoration.
7) Disco music - sorry - I just do not like it! Sorry, Travolta!! LOL! :) Bad movie - Saturday Night Fever! Not his finer hour! LOL!
8) Fannie Packs - Hello, Hello! Yes, they are helpful, but oh, do they look hideous!!!! A woman looks like an old lady and a man looks, well, not that there is anything wrong with it, but "gay!" LOL! :) One must ask oneself: would Brad/Angie or Tom/Katie or even Michael Douglas/Catherine Zeta-Jones EVER wear this?! I hope not! LOL! :)
9) Shoulder pads - Not only did they look terrible - they felt terrible, too! :)
10) Short shorts - Daisy Duke! I am sorry, but I do not need to see your "bootie!" And neither does my husband or my son and it is a bad example for our daughters, too!

I thought this list was gonna be hard, but, surprisingly, it wasn't! It was fun! Tons of things just come to mind - particularly from the 80's era! And I must admit - I am guilty of some of these fad faux paus myself. I have been known to stock up on the AquaNet hair spray! Heaven forbid I run out of it?! It was the ONLY hair spray that could "hold" all that hair up soooo very high and last soooo very long! ROFL! And I wore shoulder pads and leg warmers and thought I looked GOOD!!!!! LOL! Maybe at the time - I did! LOL! Who knew these would become things my kids would one day laugh at!!!! :) Oh well! At least I never wore a "fanny pack!" LOL! And I didn't have a mullet (well, it wasn't supposed to be a mullet, that is)! :)) And, btw, you will be better for knowing this, I still wear my "grandma underwear," too! Even w/low rise jeans! Just don't look if I bend over!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :))
