I thought this new fad was ridiculous, and a bit gross, but maybe that's just me. What does everyone else here think about dying underarm hair?

Well, it served the purpose of attracting a lot of attention to the girl that has done it. I assume it was the only purpose of doing that, not something about fashions, trends, etc.
A person only sees and hears what he wants to see and hear and disregards the rest.

I almost posted this as an addendum to my last post in the letting off steam thread, then I realized it was better suited here.

A new behavior has been documented during the moving chaos of Boston, known here as "Allston Christmas." Lots of moving trucks going around and parking, lots of craziness and honestly, bad behavior, some of which can be excused as just not knowing the city.

However, this takes the cake, as it is bad behavior that cannot be excused in that manner. What is this behavior, you may ask?

Need a parking spot? Just park your rental truck on green line tracks, and back up the subway system!

Even if you're new to Boston, you should know better than THAT.

It is once again time to revive this thread with two items I heard about in the news today, that seem to fit right in this category in my opinion.

First, Jeans that look like they are covered in mud and selling for over $400.00:

Second, are plastic, see-thru, jeans:

So, what is your opinion? Are these ridiculous? Would you buy them or wear them?

This story certainly fits the subject of "ridiculous"!

An intoxicated person who says he is from the year 2048 and that Aliens got him drunk and he time traveled back here to warn of an alien invasion :

What do you think of spending nearly $400.00 for a swimsuit that cannot be worn while swimming? Ridiculous, or not?

Taking the Polar Plunge on New Year's aka jumping into freezing cold water voluntarily. Ridiculous, imho!
