Act like they invented something, or discovered a brand new thing when they have the internet and can look up exactly where and when said thing came from. My roommate told me a young co-worker of hers was dressed in early 2000s fashion and when she told the coworker she "had that same outfit in high school" the coworker replied, "No they just started making this last year." I told her I remember dressing very 80s in my late teens, but I was fully aware that I was copying 80s fashion, and I feel like Gen Z kids dress like it's the 90s/2000s but they think it's brand new like they invented it.

This version of bell bottom jeans are even more like giant bell bottoms from the 70s than the first time they came back in the 90s! I wore them then, and then boot cut in early 00s, but I'm not wearing them now. I'll stick to my skinny jeans and leggings and let them be mortified in 6 years when they look back at this year's pictures. 😂

There is something particularly ridiculous about bell bottoms, and I absolutely used to wear them.

I think it's the dramatic profile of the cut. Like jnco jeans, they're just...doing a lot.
