Anybody got any short fads that were mocked when the fad was over?;)

I have a couple of fads

1.The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers(AKA The Original Power Rangers, 1994/1995) This was a huge fad. Kids loved this show and couldn't WAIT to get home and watch this show. By the next year, these same kids were insulting other kids who still watched PR. They would say stuff like, "You're such a baby! You watch PR!"(Notice, it wasnt you still watch PR, it was you watch PR.)

2.The Macarena- This dance took EVERYBODY by storm! Even the Prez was doing it(Bill Clinton) This was a hit done by Los Del Rio then remade by the Bayside Boys. Everybody was doing this dance. A short time later, people got sick of the Macarena and The Macarena was put on virtually every "Worst Songs" list in the US(This is a song that for a short time was incredibly loved. Oh wait. That was the DANCE that was really loved, not the actual song). I even saw a tape of "How To Do The Macarena" in a thrift store for $1.00! ;) (I didn't buy it)

the whole nysnc craze drove me up the goddamned wall

*cringes* pissed: I hated that dance and the song....and the craze around it! I cannot listen to that song. It drives me up the wall. Same with that stupid song from circa 1999 that was "Mambo Number 5" or something like that. *shudders* puke:

the whole breakdancing fad in the mid 80s irritated me

the whole nysnc craze drove me up the goddamned wall
oh god, i was right there in the middle of it

when they first came out, i had a whole campaign about how they were just ripping off BSB and BSB was the best!!!! The whole N*Stink VS Back-seat Boys....

Hmmmm, I don't think I was ever into fads....:lol:

I hated that horrible RIcky Martin song too. The place I was working at the time always had a radio on one of the Top 40 crap stations, and heard that song everyday for months.

Yeah, that and Prince's Purple Rain fad

Another SO fad: :jar:

Oh yes Pokemon, I was a fanatic about that, had all the games tons of cards etc. Yikes did I have it bad over those repulsive little guys. And also Giga Pets, I had 7 of them. And also those pogs, loved those when i was little.

Pokemon

Pi....Ka....Chu?;) :p Honestly, back in 2000, my 17- year old crush Ryan and his 16 year old friends were in love with Pokemon and played Pokemon trading card games!:crazy: :lol: I shouldn't be laughing so hard, because in 1999, my then 9 year old sister and I would gleefully watch Pokemon!:crazy: My sister who has grown up a lot since 1999 denies loving Pokemon!:crazy: :lol:

Pogs.

I'm sorry, but NO.
