Scrunchies are back?!!! (Cue the shrieking Psycho shower scene music)

So somebody please explain this to me: why can't this decade at least attempt to be original???

Like ok, I get that '80s is in right now...neon, asymmetrical necklines, skinny jeans, acid wash even, but the thing is the '90s are also in too...I certainly hope you didn't think all that plaid we've been wearing was fresh or anything (can you say grunge). Recently we've also been feeling a little '60s with hints of color block, mod shapes and those John Lennon shades Mary-Kate's been sporting. And '70s...have you seen Nicole Richie lately, boho dresses, flowery blouses, that hippie head band thing (that's officially last year). Even '50s shapes are coming back, which are apparent by full-skirts and high waisted numbers very popular now, and even those old school swimsuits are having a moment (check out the Victoria Secret catalog). My point is that very few recent trends have appeared to be original since 1999, and I mean please, of all the trends you want to renew do we really have to do scrunchies again??? I mean they weren't even very flattering! It makes your hair look thinner and your head a weird shape. The thing that makes me even more mad is that American Apparel actually makes them look really cute so I kind of want one. BUT NO! I'm pretty sure I absolutely must refuse. Join with me in my scrunchie strike!
