Those are totally the funniest thing I have ever seen because they are to identify new drivers who are considered unskilled and dangerous LMAO! Not sure what people thought they meant, but um...yeah.

*edit - how funny is that, I just looked at the other thread and the first post was the same thing. LMAO!

pretty much, a stranger can run up to one kid, say he's a friend of mom or dad and say another kids name and that they got hurt and he's there to take them to the hospital or where ever.

One of the big dumb ones I hate are stretched tires. How the hell is it cool to stretch the crap out of some tires to show the rim's lip where it should fully be seated? Just buy the correct tire size that will fit!!!!
Really - so if I had a 5 foot tall fuzzy dorsal fin on my roof you would not think that was a little weird but instead respect me for my own unique desires?

Kids are rocking the ochiba (old drivers') mark too nowadays, though not as common as the dreaded wakaba. 
For me, I think the whole Herra Frush thing is just silly. It's not necessarily an indictment of the owners (some of them are nice enough people), but it's just one trend that I find to be pointless and ridiculous. I get the same feeling about the whole Herra Frush thing as I do with filthy hipsters.
I also think that anything that's called "JDM" that's not the popular or at least de rigeur in Japan is just plain stupid as well.

Also I hate the filipino flags and stickers and pinoy this and pinoy that.. I just think its really silly to advertise your race. maybe as a filipino american, it bugs me more?

Oh ya another trend I hate (99% only a japanese trend) is that the kei cars here owned by young women for the most part have eleventy billion stuffed animals on the dash board. For those who have been to japan know what I'm talking about!
That isnt so much a "trend" as it is correct and direct placement of directional horns.
Yea it just gives the serial killer a head count on how many there are to kill. He can go out to the van and scrape off each decal that has been finished.

I always thought of it as a home invasion count.
I hate people turning on their HID's and yellow fogs when its still bright out just because they think it looks cool. Its like I get it dude, you got the ebay kits for a good deal, now turn them off, its 4 pm.
