The most stupid fashion ever is this one of young(and not so young) men wearing their jeans so that the top is UNDER their bums. To add insult to injury they don't even wear CKs.
Now I know when we look back at old pictures we see John wearing long hair, flower power shirts and myself with flairs and platforms. It provides a good laugh.
However, these young men will one day look back and cringe at their own stupidity and wonder how they could have been so desperate to be hip that they were prepared to make themselves look so foolish.

Agreed, 100%! These are the same kids who whine and moan when their parents pull out the really cute baby pictures. I've seen it happen: a school conference. Billy is sitting there in his oh, so cool, crotch level pants with his piercings and tattoos. Mom pulls out the photos (totally family-rated) of Billy as a baby or a toddler. Billy moans in embarrassment. At least, in these photos, he isn't bare-assed! Ah well, all the syanpses and connections of the brain aren't complete until about age 22. We can only wait.
I'm afraid our own parental generation said the same things about the "hip" clothing we wore!
:)
I always want to yank their pants down when I see them, but my son just makes them do extra push-ups if they come to his gym for class with droopy pants.

I'm 'only' 34 and hate this so called fashion with a passion, I get the almost overwhelming urge to go up and pull their trousers up for them!
And our parents said the same sort of things about us in tie-dye and bell bottoms and platform shoes...
Thou hast become thy parent... as my DH says to me frequently. So far I have resisted resorting to violence.
The other thing they will regret is that they will have hip problems. This 'fashion trend' has been around long enough that it has been discovered that those who sport it walk differently, to keep the pants up. This causes them to have problems with their hips later.
I guess every generation has its fashion to health problems. Women still wear ridiculously high heels which causes foot and leg problems.
My son wears his pants low but not that low. He knows that if they are too low, I will pull them up for him. The first time I did this, I accidently gave him a wedgie. It did get his attention.

Thanks for linking to my blog. I haven't actually figured out how to do that yet.
Yes, that is my hair. (And yes, that's my real color.) I was mildly to seriously horrified by how wild and frizzy it is. I haven't changed the "style" in 20 years; mostly I just don't look in the mirror and pretend that I really look the way I do in my head! I guess pictures don't lie, though.
Just for your information, my husband says he'd like to carefully place a nice flower in a "particular place" like a new Volkswagon Beetle. He says it would "improve an otherwise disgusting image and do wonders for the smell at the same time." He says those pants are called "plumbers." Who knew?
I've heard that wearing pants like that was called "jailing" which is way weird, considering what often happens in jails!!
