For the most part a trend has to land on my head like a brick before I notice something, so I’m wondering if I’ve just encountered a bunch of weird coincidences or if I’ve noticed two new trends:

– Is it suddenly hip to put super as a prefix to everything? I’ve seen this happen all over manga, anime and some other Japanese stories in the early 2000’s, but I’ve been seeing it all over tech blogs lately. Makes my feet itch… I’m hoping it’s just a fluke.

– Is it suddenly trend to flip up the collar on a polo shirt? I know most styles get repeated every 20 years or so, but I thought this would be a 80’s only phenomenon… Much like Members Only jackets. I saw this repeated by different guys across a handful of weeks, but given that the bar is not known for it’s style, I can’t tell. They were younger “kids” so it’s not like the 60 year old dude – still wearing a Members Only jacket! – was flipping up the collar… Again, this too makes my feet itch.

Super-exicited that it’s that super-scary!

Nope – it still sucks.
