W.T.F. MAN!!!






I try to stay as far away from malls as humanly possible. Unfortunately, I upon occasion have to go, being that it is one of the only places to look at all things Mac. Begrudgingly, I go...
While there the other day I saw a couple of things that I had to comment on.
Firstly, eyebrow weaving!? Jumpin' Jehosephat! What in Gods name is this shit?! Do they make little baskets on someone's eyebrow? Does one have to possess a thick Italian unibrow to be able to have this procedure done?
Is this some sort of quasi-occupational therapy for the criminally insane? I really don't even want to know....
It sounds like someone has figured out another way to separate you from your money in the name of fashion, or whatever the Hells going on, yet again! I think it's probably a covert recruitment operation for the Taliban!! Yeah! That's it. "Come, get your eyebrows weaved and please watch this training, errr, product video."
Secondly, Hot Topic!! Corporate shills turning a cultural movement into marketing to the masses!! YEAH...... I know this has been done with many other movements, but this one hits too close to home for Angry! Where I grew up people that didn't have perfectly coiffured, feathered hair, Levi's leather shoes( I think they were made by Levi. Maybe

Darth or the Chief can remember. Anyone else remember those asinine, retard-o shoes? ), Levi's denim jacket, and a KShit 95 T-shirt with the original fox/pig thing smokin' a doobie in Day-Glo orange no less, was a freak and quite possibly homosexual too!! Well, I was as usual, the odd-ball in school. Having shock-white, Billy Idol-esqe hair, Misfit t-shirts, jeans with holes ( cause momma was poor ), combat boots, Jet-black eye-liner, etc. I stuck out like, not just a sore thumb, but a thumb smashed by a 15 pound maul that had become infected and had begun to balloon to 2x its size! I can't even recall how many fights I got into just for the way I looked! More times than not, surprising some microcephalic jock that thought I'd be an easy target, only to kick the ever loving shit out of his surprised ass!!! Don't fuck with small, angry, punk rock, Irish/German kids. Most of us are already so on edge you might be the straw that breaks the proverbial camels back! Back to Hot Topic. This is yet another example of ideas bastardized and manipulated until it becomes socially acceptable. " Show mom and dad you're a rebel! But do it in the safety and comfort of your local mall." or, " Show 'The Man' were to stick it! But first, buy it in a store in a mall run by Him!" Punk is definitely dead! Keep shopping..... Zombies

Long Live the D.K.'s!!! Angry BraDy
