Just as time marches on, so do the lists.  You didn’t think that 2012 would be any less annoying than years past, did you?  With the onslaught of new reality TV, celebutards, and fashion delinquents, the best is yet to come.  Bring it on 2012!

1. Bubble Lounge.  This may very well be one of the worst places in New York City.
2. Rainboots in the airport.  Call me an optimist, but I think you, me and Terminal B are in the clear as far as rain showers are concerned. 
3. Magazine covers that are so photoshopped I have to actually read the headlines to figure out who the covergirl is.
4. People who post photos of other people who could look like them (with enough photo filters and if I squint my eyes) and pretend it’s them.  That’s just weird.
5. Kanye West.  Just please stop talking… and tweeting.
6. People who think they are funny.  Mostly because people who think they’re funny usually aren’t.
7. Season 5 of Jersey Shore.  Seriously, are we still doing this?  Is there even anything left to smush?
8. Can we stop speaking like valley girls and using abbreviations for everything?  OMG, that’s AMAZE, obvs!
9. There are so many problems with this video (and yes, it’s for real).  First of which: muffins and cupcakes are not the same thing. (Thanks, Cat).
10. ESPN commentators apparently need some geography lessons… not to mention some practice in current events seeing as they don’t know where West Virginia is, nor do they know who Michelle Obama is.  As a matter of fact, all on air media personalities should probably do their homework before speaking. Don’t just talk for the sake of talking.

There’s quite a bit of time spent on WhyDid helping the ladies with the do’s and don’ts of fashion… but it occurred to me last night (while watching an especially offensive episode of The Millionaire Matchmaker) that we need to direct some of this professional fashion help towards our male counterparts.  It also occurred to me that many of you men actually think you have  the slightest clue as to how to dress yourselves.  Welp, newsflash: You don’t.  Just ask Kanye, who took the liberty of deciding he could show his “collection” at Paris Fashion Week.  Oops!

So, this is dedicated to you, brothers Cruz and the rest of you gentlemen out there making our eyes hurt.  (I’ll include photos as to be very explicit).

1. Manpris.  Yes, those are exactly what you’re thinking. 
2. Sleeveless hoodies. 
3. Anything with embellishment.  Good rule of thumb: If you’ve seen it on The Jersey Shore, I for sure shouldn’t see it in your closet. 
4. Fishnet tank tops. Ahem, Jared Leto. 
5. If you must wear a blazer with your jeans (and it seems you all must), please, for heaven’s sake, do not wear sky blue baggy jeans with it.  Dark and tailored denim, fellas. 
6. Button down shirts… only buttoned with one button.  There are multiple buttons for multiple reasons.  Use them. 
7. Knit hats and/or scarves at the beach or with a tank top, swim trunks, or anything else that could be worn in July. 
8. Jewelry other than a wedding band. 
9. T-shirts that could be mistaken for your girlfriend’s in the wash. Tight, deep V, etc. ….  Please reference SNL’s Dangerously Deep V -
10. Skinny jeans.  I’m so uncomfortable with these for so many reasons.  One being that I don’t need to know that your thighs are smaller than mine.

For as long as I can remember, rap music and fashion have gone hand in hand.  Now, some of you may just be thinking about the obvious mentions of “Air Force Ones” or “Apple Bottom Jeans” but these sneaky little lyrical poets have expensive (and high end) taste.  Some of the nods to top designers may fall on the average listener’s deaf ears– but they aren’t lost on me!  How else do you think they get white girls to dance and squeal?  Mention Prada!!

1. T-Pain – Rap Song, “…Balenciaga bags cost a couple bucks (hot) is all shawty ever been, Blow a couple racks in Barney’s on that Phillip Lim.”
2. Kanye West – Throw Some D’s, “Walking down Melrose spot where they sell clothes.  That chick know she’s bad. Can tell by the Chloe bag.  She ain’t no hoodrat.  She ain’t gotta prove that.  I peeped the McCartney’s.  Stella got her groove back.”
3. LL Cool J – Loungin’, “I heard about your man he like to lace you wit cream.  Dolce Gabbana, Moschino, wit Donna jeans…”
4. Fabolous – You Be Killin’ Em, “Louboutin shoes, she got too much pride.  Her feet are killin’ her.  I call it shoe-icide.”
5. Notorious B.I.G. – Hypnotize, “I put hoes in NY onto DKNY.  Miami, DC prefer Versace.  All Philly hoes dough and Moschino.  Every cutie wit a booty bought a Coogi.”
6. Drake – Fancy, “Say, go Cinderella. Go Cinderella.  Orgasm blush, lipstick, and concealer.” 
7. Lil Kim – No Time, “Yeah, I mama, Miss Ivana.  Usually rock the Prada, sometimes Gabbana.” 
8. Kanye West ft. Nicki Minaj – Monster, “monster Giuseppe heel, that’s the monster shoe.”
9. Jay-Z – Empire State of Mind, “Caught up in the in crowd.  Now you’re in style.  Anna Wintour gets cold.  In Vogue with your skin out.”
10. Clipse – When the Last Time, “When they say, “Last call” that don’t mean the night’s ova.  That means it’s time for her to show ya how quick she can hop out those Gucci loafers…”

So, I thought I’d switch things up a little this week.  One of my favorite things to do is check Google Analytics to see what exactly people are Googling to land on WhyDid.  I’ve compiled a list of this past week’s most interesting and/or popular searches (I promise you I did NOT make these up) and will do my best to answer all queries.

1. Justin Bieber’s haircut. Here. Don’t ask again.
2. Do people eat Bump Its.  Sweet heavens, I hope not.
3. What to wear to a coffee date. I’m fairly certain we’ve covered this.  You don’t go on a coffee date. Period.
4. Fishtail braid. Here is WhyDid’s “How To” video for the good ol’ fishtail braid:               
5. How to pee in a one piece romper.  Well, when you take on the task of wearing a romper, you’re taking on a lot of responsibility.  This includes having to basically strip down nude when going to the ladies’ room.  Sorry, kiddos, no shortcut for this one.
6. Kanye West wearing leggings. I didn’t know about such an incident until I saw this.  I presume this is in reference to the ridiculously tight red metallic skinnys he wore during the NBA All Star Game performance.
7. What is why did you wear that? Um, well, you’re here now.  In case you haven’t figured it out, WhyDid is a lifestyle blog dishing out real life advice on fashion, love, food, and fun. Think of WhyDid as the big sister you never had.
8. Why can’t Jennifer Anniston make a good movie? I laughed out loud at this one.  Great question.  If anyone has the answer, please let me know.  As a matter of fact, you should probably let her know.
9. Dog cupcakes. Here’s a delightful recipe for dog cupcakes (aka pupcakes). I smell a “How To” video coming…
10. Did Rihanna have on panties at the Grammy’s? If you look really close. Like really creepy stalker close in this photo you can see the nipple covers as well as the edge of a nude thong.  So while she may not have the best fashion sense, she does have enough good sense to cover her hoo ha.

Keep Googling, guys.

I’ve been bombarded with commercials, tweets, and status updates about “Black Friday” shopping.  Not to sound like a snob, but I am not, nor have I ever, participated in what I consider such a barbaric event.  I don’t care how large a flat screen I can get or how many cashmere sweaters I can snag if it means that I will be forced to wait in the freezing cold with a bunch of cattle and then be pushed around, trampled, and most likely verbally assaulted once inside. No, thank you. Not worth it. That said, here are ten things I’d rather do than go shopping on Black Friday:

1. Go ice fishing with my bare hands.
2. Clean the bathroom with poisonous products and a fresh manicure.
3. Long division with no calculator.
4. Drink vinegar through a pink straw.
5. Watch the Kanye West Runaway “movie” on repeat.
6. Go sit in an office all day with a bunch of twatards who don’t know what they’re talking about.
7. Go rock climbing with no harness on Mt. Everest.
8. Walk home uphill both ways in the snow with no shoes while carrying a bale of hay.
9. Have a root canal performed by my dog with no anesthesia.
10. Wear leggings as pants.

Enjoy those sales!
