Vinnie and the boys
Not that long ago the term "douchebag" called to mind those moments when you don't feel, you know, all that fresh (well that and a certain SNL sketch). Then Vincent, E, Drama, and Turtle arrived on the scene, transforming what was previously an innocent receptacle for used douche into the most annoying male subdemographic since the Promise Keepers. Note to all our postfrat friends: The guys on Entourage are fictional characters, not role models.
Terry Richardson
We never thought we'd say this, but we're starting to get sick of hipster tits. Is it just us, or is the amateurish (if not actually amateur-produced), washed-out look that Mr. Richardson helped popularize feeling a little, well, washed-up? Note to all you Leica-toting youngsters: Maybe it's time to learn how to set the f-stop.

J Mays
To shake up some tired concepts, car designer J Mays looked back to the future in the nineties, dreaming up VW's New Beetle and the retro Ford Thunderbird, left. And that's probably where it should've stopped. Lately, a new generation has taken things a step farther, copying the guy who copied the old models. The result: a glut of retro cutesiness where new ideas—both under the hood and outside it—are what's needed.
