And I mean any fad at all.
If so please list it.
I for one got involved in the "YU-GI-OH fad a few years ago.
And I briefly got into the YTP fad.
That's all I can remember right now.

I'm usually only very dimly aware of what fads are even trendy at the moment. Guess I'm getting old. When I was younger yo-yos were HUGE for a while and I had one, so I guess yes.

I was into Pokemon and Yugioh for a while. But I don't really play card games that much. It's not my thing.

For a brief, dark period of my life in grade 4, I was, like the rest of my school, obsessed with beyblade toys. I only realized how ridiculous they were after watching the godawful TV show.

Nope. Not once in my life. Never played those card games, never collected anything, never wore a certain something.

I was involved in Pokemon before it was a fad. I learned about it from a magazine and I tried to tell everyone how wonderful it was but no one cared until about two weeks later. Suddenly, they were trying to get ME into it! As for Yugioh...yeah, my friends were all doing it so I thought there had to be something to it so I started playing. i got into it for a good while. Never got into "Magic: The Gathering," never really got into Harry Potter, and I curse Stephanie Meyer for making Twilight.

Pokemon was the most obsessed I've gotten. Even went as far as entering some tournaments didn't win any though it was still fun.

I usually start them, to be honest.
It only takes myself and a bud to start a fad in my experience.

Magic: The Gathering doesn't count. I didn't treat it as a fad, I actually had fun, and only stopped playing once I got out of high school.

I have no excuse for Pogs, though.

I was (and actually still am) shamelessly addicted to Pokémon.

I was also quite shamefully addicted to Yu-Gi-Oh! when it was in its first season and a half or so. Ah well, at least knowing what's going on makes the Abridged series all the more enjoyable.

I don't see how Magic the Gathering is a fad.
OT: Pokemon and Yugioh were the two big ones for me.

Pokemon, mostly.
oh, beyblades too. I nearly lost a finger almost every time i played that.

The only "fad" i've been involved in recently is in terms of clothes, i've bought in on the fact that around here, its fashionable as hell to wear flowery dresses, waist high skirts, "boyfriend blazers" , etc.

I hardly ever know what fads are popular at the time.

Though, to my knowledge, I've never really liked anything popular.
