Silly Trends…
“Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”
— Ralph Waldo Emerson
Trends come and trends go. Many elements of societal “fashion” these days are a perplexing amalgam of eras-gone-by, pop-culture phenomena, and weird statements of individuality.
Some of these are just silly enough to merit a closer look…
Lady Gaga? Goo-Goo about GaGa? Man or woman?
iPhone and Twitter Madness? People talking to each other through technology, but not in-person.
Funky Fresh Neo-Techno Shades? Seriously, this seems so silly, it must be a fad. What’s the joke?
Autotuners for singers? Kanye’? Britney? Drake? Lil Kim? Who sings with their own voice anymore?
Las Vegas? It’s in a desert, and anyone who’s been there knows that can’t last forever. Not to mention, ever look closely at the people who move to Las Vegas — what’s my motivation?
Lastly, bi-partisan politics? What’s the difference if neither side cares what the other thinks and makes up lies to support their views and policies? Then again, this trend hasn’t changed in 220 years, why would it change now?
