Silly Trends

Fewer and fewer catchers wear a cap at all while behind the plate. They are using the new style masks now.

 

Listening I understand. I listen to music sometimes at the gym, it’s the texting, reading and playing games basically using the equip,met like a desk or sofa.

 

Or a photographer; the brim can get in the way, when you are taking a picture.

 

The ones that drive me truly postal are the (typically) women in the most expensive yoga gear on cardio having a loud and often rather personal conversation with their BFF on the phone.

You can't understand why you can't lose any weight? Well... I have a few ideas... like if you can carry on a conversation while doing cardio, you're doing it wrong.

 

A few catchers wear glasses. How can they manage to keep their glasses on when they flip their mask off for a foul ball, wild pitch, etc...?

 

Not a trend for some, but a serious religion. Looks very silly on those who simply appropriate for fashion.

I'll try:

"Dreadlocks... if you're not an actual religious follower of Emperor Hailie Selassie, ruler of all, and King of the Universe. Jah! Rasta Fari."

 

For most of african negroid descent, creating dreadlocks isn't difficult. It's like a strange braid.

For the 'white boys' I've seen do it, one explained it to me that you have to braid the hair, then not wash it for an extended period of time. In other words, yes, you have to be filthy.

Edit - why do they do dreadlocks when Haile Selassie had short hair?

 

Samson and Delilah is the source. Dreadlocks are neither filthy nor silly when cared for properly, and are more identity than fashion statement for some.

 

I simply meant that for someone with straight hair to get them, that's how it was explained to me by someone who actually wore them.

 

I guess they either don't worry about it, or they wear these:

 

Frontal lobotomies.

Electro shock therapy.

 

Especially if you are on the receiving end.

 

Seems like it's now accepted practice to allow police officers to provide therapy nowadays.

"Halt, or I'll provide dubious psychiatric treatment!"

How about 'Crossover' SUV's. That's a trend that I'd like to see die. Every car looks exactly the same, and they refuse to just admit that they're making lots and lots of curvy station wagons.

 

SSRI application by any MD without the ability to empirically measure the need or effect upon brain chemistry.

Actually, a dangerous trend. Silly too.

 

Hmm, interesting, would you care to talk about it??

 

Fortunately there is a silly trend to suit every need; Lite beer, natural foods, organic ..., flavored rum/vodka/gin..., anything made by Apple, GMC commercials, Geico commercials, Professional Football (NFL flavor) ...

 

"Gluten Free", unless you suffer from Ciliac Disease.
"Low Fat/Fat Free", and its loaded with sugar. The sugar is worse for you than the Fat. As a mater of fact fat is good for your health(to eat).

 

My wife insisted on having 2% milk - while our daughter has been growing. I keep telling her that until she's fully developed, whole milk is _better_.

 

I feel the same. But mass produced dairy milk is technically not Good either. Too many female hormones given to increase production, and its passed on in the milk. . If you read about it, it might scare you. Another can of worms.

 

Google wheat and glyphosate. It's the farming, not gluten.

Yes. Ironically enough, Alzheimer's exploded as the Baby Boomers embraced low fat and took statin drugs. Too bad they didn't realize that brain is made of cholesterols....
