wonder when people will realize that the "scene" has become
homogeneous. It's full of 14 year old girls with uneven bangs, black
and white striped shirts, and tattered low-top black Chuck Taylor’s,
who swoon over homosexual kissing and pathetic whiny lyrics and overuse
the symbols.
Their favorite quote is, invariably, "The truth is you could slit my
throat and with my one last gasping breath I'd apologize for bleeding
on your shirt" because it like, so totally describes their relationship
with that one HAWT sophomore who totally ripped their hearts out when
they were like, SO in love with him.
Their favorite type of music is, of course, "emo, screamo, and
hardcore", three terms which, in their minds, invariably include the
bands Taking Back Sunday, Thrice, and Hawthorne Heights.
Their AIM screennames often include x's, the words "electrikk",
"disaster", or some play on their favorite song from their favorite
band, you know, the one they saw on MTV like a couple times, but
shouldn't be on MTV because they're like, way too emo for that.
They take hundreds of black and white pictures with way too much
contrast of themselves looking plaintively down at the ground, pointing
a gun made of their fingers at their heads, or kissing the camera while
displaying their expert application of lip gloss around their labret
piercing and the thick dark eyeliner that circles their eyes.
They embrace the "dork" that is inside their polished, fashionable
exteriors by writing in their LiveJournals or Xangas about how they and
their friends had an 'N Sync sing-a-long at one of their sleepovers
because, remember, 'N Sync is soooo not popular anymore and they like,
sooo wouldn't follow any of the fads of today, so they embrace the fads
of yesterday.
They adore "retro fashion", meaning anything from the 80's, because
they totally used to wear neon colors and big beaded bracelets, even
though they were born in, at the earliest, 1988 and remember jack shit
about the fashion and culture of the 80's.
It's full of "emo boys" who often are difficult to differentiate from
"emo girls", who have meaningless tattoos even though they're 15, smoke
a lot of cigarettes, drink a lot of hard liquor, and are in some shitty
band that plays a couple of gigs in someone's basement because they're
"too cool to go mainstream" when really, they just suck.
They weigh roughly 90 pounds, wear girls' jeans that hug their asses in
just the right places, belts buckled somewhere around the side of their
right leg, tight striped 80's style polo shirts or band t-shirts, and
skater shoes, even though they don't skate because that's soooo lame.
They write awful poetry about the dark abyss of their souls and how the
gun is pointed at their heads, the trigger poised to blast away the
bloody memories of a failed romance. They cried when Blink-182 broke
up, and they have a secret obsession with Avril Lavigne because, like,
she really IS kinda hot even though her music totally sucks.
They spend more time at the mirror than their female counterparts do,
making sure that the long black shock of hair at the front of their
heads lies covering one eye just so, that their lip piercing is
perfectly placed so that it looks hot when they kiss other boys, that
their pants are the right degree of tightness so as not to exude
gayness.
Emo boys and girls often use the suffix "Xcore" to describe themselves,
using a number of adjectives or nouns to accomplish this task. This is
a play off hardcore music, or "hXc". Some of these descriptive words
include "fashionXcore", "retroXcore", or even "yournamehereXcore."
This way of speaking is retarded or nonsensical to everyone else except
those "in the scene", but it totally doesn't matter because they're too
nonconformistXcore for anyone to truly understand their "scene".
They couldn't name a Sunny Day Real Estate or Rites of Spring song if
it came up and bit them on their Gap Jeans-clad asses, and they claim
to like the Smiths because Jesse Lacey of Brand New said they were cool.
Sure, they listen to some new "hardcore" bands, but they're all pretty much the same five bands:
1. Taking Back Sunday
2. Senses Fail
3. Thrice
4. Hawthorne Heights
5. Story of the Year
To these promising young firecrackers, music takes a backseat to fashion in their scene of choice.
Emo girls just want to kiss emo boys, emo boys just want to kiss other
emo boys, and they all want to wear tight pants and take lots of
pictures of themselves. End of story. Because honestly? It's electrikk!
Haha, this was funny. Tom posted it on myspace.

| So yeah, this
weekend pretty much rocked. On Friday I went to the Joe's Homecoming
game which was pretty fun. Saturday I woke up and I said to myself,
'This is gonna be a beautiful day.'
It
was the kind of day where you wake up on your own. There's a bright,
blue sky and the clouds are right where you want them to be. Yeah it
started off kinda shaky but it came to a beautiful end. I went to
Souled Out with people and saw Brian, Kev, Dom, & George play. They
did really awesome. Then all of us just hung out for a little. I went
back to Sandra's with Matt and that was super fun.
Sandra: MOM, THEY'RE DATING AGAIN...
lmao
Then Matt left around 12:00 and me and Sandra went to bed. I woke up around 9ish and went to my mom's work.
Now I'm here and I have like two tests tomorrow I need to study for :(
But yeah, I'm really happy today. It doesn't feel like Sunday. I thank God for this weekend, it was exactly what I needed.
<PM3

| Everyword that I said..what a big mistake & the ones you left out are keeping me away..♥

to join Active Environmentalists..you get to 'burn shit' but I passed
up that golden oppurtunity. Eh. I cannot wait until the weekend. And
ooh homecoming's coming up in like three weekssss. I'm
excited..kinda..:p
♥ Patrice

| Why can't I feel anything from anyone other than you? ♥
So
yeah, I miss this thing. I started school like a few weeks ago. Not too
bad, I must say. So yeah haven't got that much hw so it's all good. Now
I remember why I stopped writing in here. My life is boring.
Lol. But yeah I guess like the Weblong Entry this is new&improved
so I'm excited. I'm kind of a computer nerd. Myspace is being ghey x
34242 so I'm gonna start using this. I probably won't write in it every
day. Mostly on weekends. But yeah, I hope this year is a good one.
Freshmen year was sooooo awesome. I miss it..alot.
My classes are good this year but it's gay to the max b/c I have no
study hall. So yeah, alot has changed. I think that it's all for the
better. Change is what you make of it. I used to be one to hate change,
and I guess, in a way I still do but you have to deal with it. Best
friends can become strangers. Relationships end. People start to like
you. People start to not like you. It happens but it only makes us
stronger people. I'll stop preaching now lol. Goodnight <3
