Do you think it's one of the most ridiculous fads ever? Do you have any? If so, what's your favorite?
 I find it stupid when people wear like 200 of those on their hand. plus they're like 6 dollars for one pack, well at least for the real ones. the knock offs are like a dollar. |

this is weird because my friend just told me about these today. i didn't even know what they were. they look ugly. kids, psh.
when i was a kid we had bands like this but they were just normal bands that were different colors and i forget how it went but they stood for sexual acts. like if you wore a certain color it indicated what you were doing sexually with your bf/gf. i think they got banned or something when teachers figured this system out. |

I had no idea it was a "fad" though. |

I've seen kids sell these things. 'Tis crazy.
I even know some older people (18+) who are insane about the damn things. They hate when there isn't a certain color of a certain shape. Half of the time, I don't even know what the hell some of the shapes are. Oh, and JC, those f*ckers are still around (and popular where I used to live). I think they're called sex bracelets. Supposedly, each color stood for some different type of sexual act performed. I don't know any, though, since I was never really into the whole sex bracelet thing (and still aren't). |

...I think tween bracelet fads are an American thing. I've never seen these around. We also never had those sexual act bracelets.
Strangely enough, I DO have a slap bracelet, but I think it's my brother's from many years ago. I always used to call it a "ruler" bracelet because mine had ruler markings on it. Actually I always thought it was just a ruler that curled up, and the bracelet part was just me being ingenious. |
