This is going to make my RANT extra hard, but ill be extra pissed now that i have to html it.
thats rite, i took my lip ring out. well, actually i lost during my interview for target and havent gotten a new one, so i just put in my old shitty one. but i got tired of it. and not having it in all the time got me thinking...
i fucking hate these fucking tools who walk around looking like fucking girls, or just looking so fucking weird and different. im not saying weird and different is all bad, but i cant come up with any words to describe how plain fucking stupid they look.
seriously, its time to grow the fuck up, get a job, and become a productive member of society. unless youre in a band, you have
no excuse to look like that. do you see yourself and how
retarded youre dressed? YOU HAVE TO CUZ YOU TAKE ALL THOSE MYSPACE PICTURES IN FRONT OF YOUR BATHROOM MIRROR! do you like the fact that it takes hour over an hour to get dressed and do your hair and make up before you go out each day? it takes me 20 minutes to get ready to go out, and thats including a 15 minute shower. and dont you feel a little rediculous and gay walking up and down the make up aisle or standing in the women's section of the gap? i dont even like to do it when im with my girlfriend!
in 10 years, youre gonna regret that your last teenage years were spent looking like
this. you know how we look back on grunge in the 90s? you wanna be remembered like that? with that same hatred? youre gonna look at pictures from your cousins wedding and where everyone is dressed up in tuxes and gowns youre gonna stick out like a fucking sore thumb in your black shirt and red tie and black suit with your long black hair over your eye and gerard way makeup scheme and youre gonna be embarressed and wish you could go back and get a tux like the rest of the wedding party.
or do you want your kids to see
pictures of what you looked like? how can you explain it to them? you cant. the closest you can come to it is making it sound like you did coke when you were younger. "well son, daddy made some bad choices when he was younger. he hung out with a bad crowd and we all were young and stupid and daddy regrets that now." but there you go. im equating dressing scene and fashioncore and emo and stupid and gay (this also goes out to goths and the previsouly mentioned punks who need to have the huge mohawks and run around like its 1980 and the punk movement is just beginning)to being as big of a mistake as doing cocaine.
but ya know what? you win. its over and you won it. you beat the man. you fought the establishment (with a sense of style, not like those poser punks with their mohawks and liberty spikes) and you won. the establishment backed down and claimed you victorious. you proved that it was possible to function in the world with only one eye and
no peripheral vision. ill be the first to admit, i went through a phase. it was very short lived, but i went through it, too. thats what being a teenager, well a human being but a teenager in perticular, is all about. its about experimenting, and trying different things in life. but there comes a time when you have to realize that its stupid and you need to grow up and grow out of it. you wont get a good job to support a family and live confortably looking like that (unless you do luck out and have tremendous skill as a musician). we all have to eventually conform (yes, dirty word i know) to lifes standards, and theres certain things we as humans have to abide by in life. and if you dont, then you dont deserve to live.
