Truthfully, why is a 'Members Only' jacket a source of ridicule?

This is not a rhetorical question - that means I want answers. That also means I want *reasons,* not some hint that I should "just know" this.

Update:

Oh, "20qtim," I didn't get your question removed. Maybe you should ask the other 4 respondents the same thing, huh?

Update 2:

Addendum for 20qtim:

    In American culture, the bigger the fad, the bigger the faux pas if you wear the article after the fad has passed. The Members Only jacket was a huge fad back in the eighties. In terms of today’s cultural acceptance, it is right up there with the mullet and Milli Vanilli.
