I can't fathom if they're 15-20 years behind with the news or the trend briefly revived.
Edit: They were these cheap plastic bands that kids used to wear and if someone snapped one off your arm it had a meaning to it. Different colours meant different things of the rude variety. Obviously as pre teens no one did them but there was a fair amount of bullying and teasing about it.

When I was a child I finger knitted several long lengths of finger knitting in assorted colours..
My Mum then machined them onto a length of woven webbing to form a tie for my Dad for a Christmas present from me
And he wore it
:D:D what a great Dad he is ♥ Our Family Motto ~If all else fails - read the instructions...
