Stupidest fad you took part of growing up?

[RamFan503]

Something like this?

You gay George?

I should have made it clear... I wore that shit as a teenager. The fuck was I thinking :sly:

Right. Got it. Wink wink nudge nudge. :7up:

I wore my hair "feathered" and later had a mullet. That feathered look still makes me laugh when I see old pictures. I even grew a rat-tail pony tail once... that's how a lured the ladies... :lol:

Yup...I also had the feathered mullet; WITH the rat tail (dyed platinum blonde...just the tail, mind you)

But I completed the hat trick by rocking the puberty 'stache (AKA the molester mustache, AKA the flavor saver)

Sadly, that wasn't the WORST fad I adopted in the mid-80's....

Anyone remember these? I had the full chromatic arsenal of Jams shorts.

The first suit I ever bought (1979) was a leisure suit, tan with a dark brown shirt that had no top button. You know, to show how much chest hair I didn't have. I think I wore it twice.

With the color of the shirt over the lapel and a gold choker macho chain and platforms

Dirk Diggler wannabes we were-

Ah man, I gotta admit to the parachute pants. I thought I was so cool in those things. And matched them with some Sergio Valente shirts with wide collars and slanted zipper pockets.

Then there were those stack shoes. I think they were the worst fashion flub on my resume. Matched with bell-bottoms and hair down to my ass, I was the shyte.

Was just posting this. Highschool in the late 80's. Parachute pants and the "crop" hairstyle..

Good lord, what was I ever thinking.

Let's see...early grade school was all about the slap bracelets and virtual pocket pets. And Jnco Jeans which I always thought looked ugly.

Middle school was the hair gel and every guy looked like a douche...the style w/ only the front spiked. I also wore South Pole and EckoClothes. I was very much into the urban lifestyle.

9th/10th was more South Pole, Ecko, and "Phat Boy" merch. Then in 11th/12th I just stopped caring about shit like that.
