Annoying trends will fade away into obscurity . . . eventually. There’s a thread online where people are talking about cultural things that “quietly went away without anyone noticing.” They include:
1. Waterbeds
2. Facebook “poke wars”
3. “When you turned off the TV, how the image would shrink to a dot before slowly fading away”
4. Flash mobs
5. Traveler’s checks
