Fads come and go. Many years ago, dance contests would last through the night to see which couple would last the longest on the dance floor. In the 1950s, teenagers enjoyed dropping coins into a jukebox to hear the latest record play and wearing poodle skirts.

During the sixties, fads took a new direction with tie-dyed shirts, beads, peace signs, and Ouija boards to tell the future. While some fads tend to surface again, one current fad just has to go! What will that fad be?
