Uhumm.
I realize that you kids are in still in High School (except for a few who are 35 and still trying to be HIP), so here is some advice for you. We all do dumb things in high school. I smoked dope all day long and wore hawaiian shirts and kaki pants everyday (while listening to TOO SHORT). With that said here is a few points I would like you people to realize:
1. There is going to be a day that you look back at this and get embarassed at the thought of how many times you waved your lit-up cell-phone in the air during a slow song. You are going to look back and laugh about how silly it is to try to "let your angst out" by pushing people around at concerts while simultaneously crying and making out with the short-fat-chick/skinny-pussy-dude next to you. You are going to regret all the overpriced studded belts, jeans, "smiths" t-shirts, belt buckles, "atreyu" hoodies, "My chemical romance" patches and piercings you bought at Hot Topic. You are going to cringe when you try to raise your children on "your" music, and they go to school and get beat up for being big pussies who cry everytime their crayon breaks, all in the name of being "EMOTIONAL". The only ones who aren't going to laughing are the ones that still are trying to be hip no matter how old they are. They are never going to get it! You fall into this category if you take up fire-dancing or burning man or Janes Addiction or Lenny Kravitz (who by the way, should change his name to Willie Kravitz).
2. The world does not have two sides against ech other. It is not the Imperial "JOCKS" vs. the Oppressed "EMO FREAKS". the sooner you realize that the better off you are. Emo is not alternative. Emo has its own little popularity system and elitism going on and everyone knows it, As much as they want to believe their life sucks, they are just big poontangs.
3. So you want to listen to some EMOTIONAL music? Listen to actual music! Made by musicians! Here is a hint for what to stray away from: If your music mentions the words "lame", "mall", "skateboard", "girlfriend", "mom", "dad", "school", "teacher", "prom", "popular", or has members of the band jump in the air when they play; THEY ARE PLAYING YOU. They don't actually know what it is like to have teen angst cuz they are in their thirties, and experianced it in the 80's or early 90's! I think you kids were, what, 6 years old then, and playing with mighty morphin power rangers?
I don't know why I even bother. You pansies are just going to cry about it and rant on your myspace account about how oppressed you are because your mom won't by you a toyota carolla, even though you need it to be able to get you and all of your friends to the local punk show, and she won't drive you. WHAT A BITCH! Hey you should write an emo song about it! Call the song "Public Transit Meloncholy" or "Walking with a Scraped Knee". Wait didn't Dashboard Confessional have one called that? OH WELL. Gocut yourselves you fat bitches.
PS. Emo Haircuts are the new mullet.
