boba - yeah it's been around longer than 5 years, but i thought paying $3 for tapioca balls would die out quick.

wristbands and annoying loud cellphone ringers, especially at inappropriate times (like a university lecture... even more annoying when it's the professor's phone!)

Edit: Let's continue...

- Overpriced coffee shops
- "Customizable" front-wheel-drive grocery-getters with nothing repectable under the hood
- Gated communities (a lot have been sprouting up in Orlando recently)

all the non-technical retards filling up ATOT posting emo blog crap, instead of using the forums for computer shizzle.

All the hardcore/emo kids. You know, the guys that wear girl pants, girl shirts (or little boy shirts), and they have their frontal hairs covering up one eye, while the rest is short. Not only that, but they either put together horrible hardcore bands, or dance around like idiots at hardcore shows.

That is what I hate.

I forgot that one

Overpriced MP3 player FTL. It's nice to see that Apple found something to make a lot of profit on at least

the ipod costs less than something similar from creative, and apple sold the 4gb ipod nano for $249 when the flash memory alone would cost $200... make a lot of profit??? maybe on accesories.

i say the most retarded fad is hating on stuff that are dominant (but with reasons)ell, apple, etc.

Oh and what's up with all these video cards with chicks on them?

I'm probably the only one here that thinks it would be cool to have one with Mel Gibson (in tights) on my video card!

:laugh:

iPod G5 with video - $295ish
Creative Zen Vision:M - $275ish

The Zen Vision:M is better than the G5 iPod AND costs less.

I think all of you guys hate the emo scene because you secretly feel threatened by it. I do too- these pseudo-homos get all the girls and it makes me quite the jealous monkey. But at least I'm honest -if I was skinny and white I'd dress in black and wear nail polish if it meant hooking up with some of the cute emo girls I see around these parts.

Besides, emo is dead as a fashion statement - bright colors are in, 70s revisionalist is the new fashion trend. it'll just take 5 years to reach the midwest, so get ready to complain about spandex!

Haha, my last few cellphones have also been set to a "ring" ringtone. I've actually had another guy say to me "Oh my god, I love you forever. Your phone actually rings instead of playing some crappy pop song!"
