Age/Style Question

[pooks]

Okay, now it's getting worse. I thought my gen said "man" and the next said "dude" and have we already progressed to another that has returned to "man" again? LOL

Actually, I've noticed that style has a 30 year stutter. The '60s were surprisingly popular in the '90s (at least to us grunge rock fans, folks in the group I hung out with, etc) and now we have the Emo crowd, wearing clothes that were pretty popular (popular as in prevalent, not necessarily 'cool')in the 70s and early 80s. Anyone else notice this?

Tasteless Emo joke below... don't read it unless you'd get it...






"I wish my grass was Emo so it'd cut itself." See? Totally tasteless.

I love Emo.

And the 60s were worth repeating. God forgive whoever designed the 70s, and curse whoever thought they were worth copying.

I think the '80s are far less forgiveable, with the neon pinks and greens that would make a RAVER's eyes bleed. Perms, rhinestone-studded denim jackets and that many sequins should be illegal. Straight-legged, high, high, high-waisted jeans with the bottoms rolled up, too.

.....high, high, high-waisted jeans

argh curse those who brought back the hip hugger (aka low rise). I can't wear those buggers without advertising my underwear brand to the world via the large gap in the back says the gal with the long rise (well at least for a short person) and little waist. I promise to buy only those jeans short enough so I don't have to roll the cuffs though....
