You’ve come a long way, baby.
I agree with all of these *except* for the vanilla toothpaste. I may be slightly partial to my cause.
Great list! I saw enough 80′s items in the stores when I was shopping this weekend to last me a life time! :)
I just bought some lavender-scented lip balm and got a pedicure with neon pink polish.
Reliving 80s beauty trends on my toes is one thing, but I’m really kicking myself over the stupid granny-scented lip balm. Gaah.
Vanilla toothpaste? It exists? *shiver*
But re: “that’s what she said” : okay, yes, in excess, but a well timed and unexpected one is still good in my book.
scrunchies.
they were never cool back then and now they’re coming back (as currently attempted by american apparel). why?!
Hilarious! Especially #4
Better hope your grandma doesn’t read this!!
“People shouting their name at the beginnings of songs” – Worst offenders are Sean Paul & Ciara. Oh, and Missy Elliott. This is something I comment on with frightening regularity.
Sing it sister! No kidding. Couldn’t have said it better.
Hi :)
An excellent list of ENOUGH!
Especially the freakin’ remakes of movies.
I would add – Enough with the lack of follow-up on news stories. Heck – Enough with entertainment as news. And Enough with just parroting government PR. And Enough with giving tax money to millionaires & billionaires who then give themselves “bonuses” and “raises”. And Enough with SpamBots on Twitter. And Enough with “oh we’re all doomed unless…” scientific studies.

What !! No Ecards!! No more Hoops’n'Yoyo! That would be sad. (If Meg can sniff a lavender Grandma, then that;s spooky, cuz that one’s in Glory!!)The rest make me laugh!
You can send me all the eCards you want, Mom. You have good discernment. As to Nonna, yes. But other grandmas smell like that, too!
“Being tagged in unattractive pictures on Facebook”
Quite possibly the most annoying thing ever.
I rarely tag people, unless they looks so awesome, I know they’ll want people to see it.
great list, must disagree on ecards though …

Sometimes “douchebag” is the only word that fits. However at my job we have taken to using just “douche” so fair enough.
The threat of E-Cards in Canada is dwindling; the Canadian website for Hallmark redirects to the US website when you click on E-Cards. Then, fewer and fewer are free, and only US addresses can purchase the rest.
Tweets and Facebook updates about how much people love coffee.
Agreed! Also I’ve had more than enough of seeing idiot hipster guys walking around in way too tight pants! Does not look good at all!
Well…now that someone’s mentioned it(sort of!)- fake homeboys with their pants falling down and the posture and other orthopedic problems that will come up in their old age because of the awkward way their droopy draws have compelled them to walk – and you thought high heels created problems!!- That’s supposing they make it to old age and haven’t been done in falling off a curb when their “skirt” falls down!! But hey, – just showing my age!!I await modification!!
I think you mean moderation — you’d kick my butt if I tried to modify you!! :)
I get modifiers but moderators are annoying. I am constantly being modified, but moderate….hmmmm….I’m also wordy – family trait. Take it anyway you please. Moderate that. Can’t be done.Love ya!!
Vanilla toothpaste – only I hope it’s vanilla bean and not french vanilla
sagging skinny jeans on boys…pick one or the other-you can’t have both!!!!
Either skinny jeans or sagging jeans
Ahhhhhh!
this is a fantastic list. I think I am with you on every single item.
Amen!
