What about the tattoo you got to match all your friends when you were 21 in Mexico?\u00a0Think about all of the trends you&#8217;ve jumped on and inevitably left in the past.\u00a0 Sometimes, we make mistakes when it comes to hopping on the latest bandwagon.<\/p>\n<p>Several regrettable trends have made their way to Lubbock over the years.<\/p>\n<p>Fitness<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"206\" data-end=\"527\">Take fitness trends. At some point, half the city convinced itself that CrossFit was a personality. Three weeks in, everyone was limping through United like they just survived a cattle drive. The same goes for keto. Sure, it worked\u2026until you started thinking about all the dirty things you&#8217;d do for a tortilla&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Style<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"529\" data-end=\"871\">Then there were the appearance choices. Frosted tips? Lubbock lit that trend up like a West Texas sunset. Fake tanning before a big event? Let\u2019s just say some folks looked less \u201csun-kissed\u201d and more \u201ctraffic cone chic\u201d in family photos. And don\u2019t even get us started on the quarantine mustaches. A lot of those should\u2019ve stayed in quarantine.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"529\" data-end=\"871\">Read More:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/kfmx.com\/lubbock-childhood-luxuries\/?utm_source=tsmclip&amp;utm_medium=referral\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">If You Grew Up in Lubbock, These \u201cFancy\u201d Things Will Hit Home<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Technology<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"873\" data-end=\"1127\">Of course, technology didn\u2019t help. People bought hoverboards, rode them exactly once (usually into a curb), jumped into NFTs like they were oil investments, and briefly treated TikTok dances like Olympic qualifiers&#8230; until a pulled hamstring said otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>Bizarre Trends<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1129\" data-end=\"1344\">And then there are the truly questionable phases: the \u201cno shampoo\u201d era (bold choice in 100-degree heat), Crocs with socks becoming everyday wear, and turning energy drinks into a lifestyle instead of a cry for help.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1346\" data-end=\"1568\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">But maybe the most Lubbock trend of all? Going all-in on something\u2026then laughing about it later. Because if there\u2019s one thing this town does well, it\u2019s committing to the bit, even when the bit absolutely does not age well.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1346\" data-end=\"1568\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">Find more Lubbock odds and ends in the galleries below&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>No Wallet?
