Trends of The Month – September 2014

Ice bucket goes Halloweeh

Awareness about ALS is great and the donations are even better, but the commercialisation of this internet craze is just wrong. BrandsonSale.com is selling the Ice Bucket Challenge costume for Halloween. That fact alone is scarier than the costume itself. Where do trends go when they die? Halloween, it seems.

 

 

 

 

News on social media? Preposterous!

Ironically, the T OI group has prohibited its journalists from posting links to their stories in their social media feeds. Not happy? Then hand over your password; the company will overlook and publish posts at its discretion in your name. Even after you quit.

 

Latest in gender shaming

New matrimonial portal iitiimshaadi.com is exactly what it sounds like – a matchmaking service for the academic royalty of India. Like we needed any more avenues to shame the non-IIT and IIM degree holders. And even more messed up – its males members need to be from these two institutes but its female members can be from anywhere, because, you know, women are stupid. *Facepalm*

Little things from the Emmys

Sarah Silverman showed off her liquid pot. Breaking Bad’s Aaron Paul caused his wife’s website to crash. Sherlock co-creator Steven Moffat revealed season 4 would be “devastating” and that its story arc reduced the cast to tears. Well, sh!t.
