I agree with every single post in this thread, and the only reason for Bluetooths is in your car, but be aware that you will still look like a douche and people will laugh at you.

LOL
I'm a member of the facebook group, "everytime a see a kid wearing heelys, I want to trip them"

ughhh I was thinking the same thing... my son is amost 11 and he and his friends LOVE Axe lol ... the teacher had to send a note home last year asking the parents of the boys to please have their sons refrain from wearing anymore Axe to school because it was making her nausiated. lol

On the AXE/TAG front, I've banned it from my classroom. I had some boys who would just douse themselves in the stuff. I told them, "You're in HS now, you shouldn't want smell like a 12 year old, go buy some real cologne and only use one spray of it."

As far a bluetooth, I only use it in my car since it's the law here. I hate it though. I feel like the borg.

You guys have clarified a mystifing e-mail that my son's school just sent out banning body sprays. My son will be in 1st grade (the school is pk-8) so I already knew it didn't apply to him, but I didn't understand why the ban.

Thanks everyone!

Oh gosh, my husband loves his crocs:rolleyes:

I and my sons are constantly telling him he looks like a dork, but he thinks they are SOOOO comfortable.

I've secretly been letting my puppy use them as chew toys (they're comfy for his teething little razor teeth too) but so far they seem indestructible. They will be around with the cockroaches after the nuclear holocaust:eek:

Yikes. I'm guilty of the xmas stocking thing, but it was body wash not spray stuff. Does that make him less dorky? It is so hard for me to think of stocking ideas. So, you young cool people, what should I put in my kids stockings this year? (son is 23 and D is 21). I saw a list that said Vera Bradley's are dorky for anyone over middle school but on GC a lot of students still like them. What is "douchey" (that word gives me the creeps) for girls?

Well, since it's body wash and will be coming off in the shower, maybe it's not as douchey?:oIn my husband's stocking I get him silly things like pez, or a dvd he may have wanted from the $5 section at target.

Douchey for girls? Speaking from what I have to deal with at the HS, I personally hate scented lotion from bath and body works or VS because it just reeks to me...and the mixture of scents makes me want to gag. Anything that says, "your boyfriend thinks I'm hot" and t-shirts of that ilk. Clothing that creates a muffin top.

Large fake handbags
Shirts that say stuff like "angel" or "princess"

There's more, I can't think of everything right now.

For girls I would add to the douchey list girls that make an effort to have their thongs hang out of their low rise jeans (sadly yes, people still do that)

and large fake sunglasses/ fake uggs

Definitely large sun glasses. The bigger the glasses, the bigger the ugly.

No, Corey Hart would be sad.;)

Clothing with words printed across the ass -- especially on prepubescent girls. I think that is the tackiest thing ever.

Omg, the 12 and 13 year old boys at summer camp pilllled that stuff on before the dances. Ew!
