Things From America that Should Never Have Been Exported

As I have been traveling around the last few years I have noticed two trends that I know started in the US and have made there way to other countries. Now I know that I am not one to keep up with the latest in fashion and that since I have left my twenties behind some of the trends that I see on television have left me speechless (Miley Cyrus and the fascination with the Kardashians) but I feel an urge to list some the trends that I have seen lately that should have stayed in the US.
  1. Pants worn so low on Men that you can see their underpants. I don't care how good looking you think you are no one anywhere in the world wants to see your trousers and in some cultures it is very disrespectful.  Unfortunately this trend has made it across the Atlantic to Africa where the young men think that wearing their pants like this makes them look like rich rap stars!
  2. Baseball hats worn backwards.  If you need to wear a hat then the bill of the hat should be pointed forward otherwise what good is it doing?
Please feel free to let me know if there are any other new trends that I should be on the look out for here.  I am happy to say that Twerking or whatever that is has not made its way here but I am sure that it is just a matter of time.
