Was doing some online shopping, and I had a musing 'worth blogging about.'

I remember when Palestinian scarves were 'all the rage' back in the electro era of the alt world. Altbros and altbroads would wear them all the time. Went perfectly with a pair of sunglasses I read on a wikipedia page that these scarves are called "kaffiyehs" and that they are a militant fashion. They apparently are anti-Russian and anti-Israeli.
I think in recent months, it has become 'cool' to support Israel and altJews, so I'm not sure if it is still a 'kewl thing' 2 wear, even though rappers started 2 wear them so I'm not sure if I can say that black people h8 the jews.

I remember when shuttershades died, and we thought the world was gonna end. Kinda sux that all products have a 'useful life.' Wish we could all be 'useful' forever, but I guess that's probs not realistic, especially in terms of 'women.'
Kinda h8 when trends go from being 'buzzworthy' to 'being worn by inauthentic entry levelers.' Just feel like my personal brand is getting stale, and I need a NEW AESTHETIC to implement asap that has nvr been done b4.

Kinda wish I could invent the next 't-shirt' -- something that would stay around 4ever just cuz it's so functional and EZ... As a design school student, I can't help but ask the question--is there something better out there than a t-shirt that would meet our wardrobe needs?

Am I less authentic and too mainstream if I find a whimsical product like the 'snuggie' to be 'funnie' and try to construct an 'inside joke' about it with a group of my friends even though lots of groups of friends have an identical inside joke?
Just want a new product where design+meme+branding+viral marketing+progressivefunctionality meet to create a super product. Kinda like 'the iPod Shuffler.'
