Trends That Disappeared Without Anyone Noticing

Steve Artressia

Almost ALL trends will fade into obscurity . . . eventually. Which is especially good news when it’s a fairly annoying trend! There’s a thread online where people are talking about cultural things that “quietly went away without anyone noticing.” Here are a few . . .

1) Waterbeds

2) Facebook “poke wars”

3) When you turned off the TV, and the image would shrink to a dot before slowly fading away

4) Flash mobs

5) Traveler’s checks

6) Planking

7) Those black plastic bases on two-liter soda bottles (yeah, what the hell ever happened to those things???)
