Whydo they reduce fashion trend to fad?

Because 'fand' sounds too awkward. Or because the kind of people who worry about such things can only manage words with three letters or less. :biggrin:

Why is it that waking up, hung over or not, is always a bad thing?

Well, that makes no sense at all. If you don't eat, your stomach should get used to being empty, and downregulate the hungry proteins so you don't feel hungry anymore. You might need to check that out with your doctor.
