Are you a trend-spotter?

Asked by BarnacleBill (16138points) August 25th, 2010

Sometimes people-watching results in noticing patterns and trends in what people wear/do/talk about. Have you noticed anything interesting lately? I’m see a lot of ‘60’s looking hats and fitted shirts on men, and people seem to be obsessed with android phones, even if they don’t know how to use them.

Admittedly, I haven’t been out much to observe people. It’s one of my favourite ways to pass time on campus, though. I keep a notebook of stuff I observe, conversations I overhear (I’m a chronic eavesdropper), and other behavioral notations.

I’m glad vintage-inspired fashion is on the rebound. I love a good trilby.

I’m a trend ignorer. Just look at my wardrobe… much to the chagrin of my wife.

I recognize trends and patterns easily…but I don’t implement or follow them – I leave that to the lemmings.

I’ve noticed people seem to like computers and “facebook”.
