Some things catch on. Some things don’t. Who’s to say what will or won’t be cool in the eyes of the masses? I wish it were me. But, it’s not, because if it were up to me, there are about ___ emerging trends that I would not allow to endure. Here’s a wish-list of short lived trends that shouldn’t have been:
1. The wooden panel trend…
Please. It wasn’t cool on your grandma’s station wagon, and it’s certainly not cool enough to be “in” on the latest websites.

2. The vector character with fat, ovular features trend…
Is there one artist who is pumping out these vector cartoons? They keep popping up, and there heads keep getting fatter.

So far, two whole items isn’t much of a “list”. But what can I say, I’m a pretty content person.
In the interest of not having a blog post be totally negative and whiny, let me end on a positive note: Stuff I think IS cool…
Cool Emerging Trends:
- Rainbowish color blend
- Stuff under Ground
