Due to a severe mental lapse, my hair joined the "bangs" fad about a month ago (give or take, I cannot remember). I hate them, and the only consolation is that my hair grows wicked fast, and they'll be long long long again before I know it.
stupid stupid stupid.

i solemly swear not be in a fad. i started skating once it passed "fad-dom" and went into a discipline that is not very mainstream. i refuse to watch "reality" <cr@p> TV. I started with a GPS long before it was "cool" Timex was not even working on thiers when i started.
i do not feel the need to ,Keep up with the Jones' which i feel is what start fads.
i pride myself in being AB-normal

I'm all about fads, baby.
Let's see...
I have my left ear pierced 
I bleached my hair platinum blond a couple of summers ago. 
I used to roll up my jeans ("pegged") 
I was part of the Converse All Stars fad in the late 80's. 
I had a mullet. 
I grew my sideburns at the height of the popularity of 90210.
I watch "The OC"

The pick would be only if you suckered into the perm fad. I've got no confession there, but it sounds like you do
