I can't understand why all this pretense and self-righteousness is floating around when we're all just the same on the inside. Everybody's just too good for anybody else. The indie rockers hate the pseudo punks and goths that hate the preps that hate the indie rockers. No matter how much we try to escape the stereotypes, to escape the conformity, we're just stuck in this ridiculous vicious cycle that we've created for ourselves. And of course, standing on my soapbox in the middle of a high school will still be conforming because half the angst-ridden teenagers are already doing that anyway. It's no use because pretense has become our god, our false idol.
I thought the new year would bring something else besides labels and our self-righteousness, but I guess that's one constant we're all going to have to live with.
gawd damnit.
