An adjective used to describe a social fad that is popular at any given time, or a noun used to describe a person who adheres to said fad(s). Although this terminology is relatively new, the meaning behind it is not, as trendies have always been a part of society. The word, for example, could have been appropriately applied in the 1970's to a 20-something hipster who donned bell-bottom jeans, a big-collar open-chested shirt and chain necklaces for an outing at the local disco to "get down and boogie" on a Saturday night just like his idol John Travolta.
Likewise, the word trendy may have been appropriately applied to the alternative movement of the 1990's, in which it became cool to be uncool (until, or course, uncool became cool, at which time the alternative crowd had to find something else uncool in order to remain uncooly cool).
Trendy innovations in the 21st Century have included obsession with so-called reality TV, Miley Cyrus worship and use of social media platforms to inform others of their daily nutritional intake. A recent linguistic innovation of trendies is the incessant use of the word So to begin every sentence. The practice is most widely used in the academic community, where it is believed to signify an increased level of intellect and deep thought. As with its predecessor, the word Like, the term has quickly become a form of widespread verbal tick among trendies who want to be hip and cool, and fit in with their social peers.

Get the trendymug. A dumbass term used to invalidate a bisexual woman's identity.
Despite the fact that some people may claim that they are bisexual for "attention", if you don't have any evidence that that's what's going on, stop throwing this term around like it's a basketball.
