yeah yeah
lets skip the pleasantries, shall we?

weve all seen it. an epidemic plaguing the wrists of a staggering number of perpetual idiots across the nation (or, most probably, the world). these ridiculous little “LIVESTRONG” wristbands (and all respective rip-offs). at the beginning of this craze, I gave the general public the benefit of the doubt in hopes they might figure out, on their own, that they would be once again objectifying themselves as tools of pop-culture.
when will i learn?
of course, everyone scrambled out to get their hands on as many as they could.
upon proposal of the notion that they've paid $3 for a rubber band simply because the slut who sits next to him/her in class has one, our little dipshits will blurt "But it's for a good cause!" no, my dear friend. spending your evenings volunteering at a local soup kitchen? thats supporting a good cause. making a donation to HIV/AIDS research instead of putting a down payment on your second BMW? also supporting a good cause. blowing the change you got after breaking a twenty at starbucks is not.

what REALLY doesnt make sense to me is why everyone thinks they look so cool. it a piece of fucking rubber! i mean, jesus, i wear actual rubber bands on my wrist and a bungee cord on my pants from time to time, so i must be some kind of fashion guru. actually, one kid got mad and called me a poser. well douche bag, if youre reading this, im sorry your social credibility was usurped by some guy who shops for his jewelry at Office Depot.

…yeah, I could’ve done better. but its like 4 in the morning…
