has there been something that was popular, but which you just did not appreciate?

for example: the macarena was popular, but perhaps it wasn't your cup of tea.

think about anything......music, cars, movies, television shows, fashion, food, etc.

Beanie Babies. Okay, little stuff animals full of beans..that just sat there.

Anime....yeah it's still popular, but now that they're even doing it for a Batman animated series (The Batman), I think it'll probably die out soon. Every freakin cartoon does NOT have to be anime!

1) Faux Mitzvahs for 13 year old kids who aren't Jewish...
2) the Fox Network and it's UPN/WB clones
3) toe rings
4) parents who name their children after luxury items (Lexus, Tiffany, etc), as well as pretentious soap opera characters
5) That the French could come up with a popular brand of Vodka; they'd be prepared to go to war if the Russians even hinted that they would come up with their own brand of champagne
6) Sports analysts
7) News analysts
8) Guys who think their manhood's enhanced when they abuse women; guys who think their manhood's enhanced when they can impregnate as many women as possible
9) People who willingly accept myths as the truth because they're not willing to face reality
10) Bud Light commercials featuring football referees...

Natural mentioned Bon Jovi...he couldn't possibly be more correct on that one! All that's contrived and chrome plated and phony...you can't top Bon Jovi. Just awful.

Remember that Rap duo Kriss Kross? They used to wear their pants backward. I'd like to have seen them eat a plateful of food that was swimming in salmonella, and have them get diarrhea so badly they'd be too weak to unbuckle their belts! Let's see them go around in backwards pants after that!

Makes you wonder what a thread like this will say about the current decade, ten years from now. But anyway:

Married With Children
Culture Club
Shoes that look like you're walking on furniture
Nipple rings
Clear Cola (oh wait, was that ever popular?)
McRib sandwich
Reaganomics
The Golf Channel
Pauly Shore (see Clear Cola comment)
Boy bands
Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Ashlee Simpson, et al.
