It does not take a mind reader to know a few things are you grow up and get some real life experience.
I don't give rats ass how you look. If you act like a retard then I will look you dead in the eyes and tell you just that.
Most people under the age of 17 if not older make me want to puke and have the intellect, moral fiber and comprehension of a austic dust bunny suffering from crack withdrawl.
In short...they have NONE.
I have talked to many 14 year olds and scores of other teen-somethings only to become completely sick and depressed. When you can buy a CBGB shirt at a local "freak store" i don't care even if it is idepenetly owned then something is wrong with this picture!!!!!
Nirvana is also dead but hell don't tell that to the music industry! I have to restrain the urge to slap little shits who babble about The Clash, Dead Kennides(pardon my fucked up spelling) and Nirvana all in one long list. Only to go blank when I walk up and attempt to engage them on a lengthy conversation about anything on the subject that does not come off of a MTV or VH1 special!!!!!
When a 14 year old remarked about Kurt Cobain dying only to have me shoot back. "You weren't even a glorified nightmare to your mother when he died!" and then listen to Henry Rollins say there is (I am paraphrasing as his quote was long)--No way in hell he would go into a pit at a concernt, even one at his own concert. Due to the senseless violence, rage and anger. Then it is time to pack it is and declare music dead and the youth of today fodder for the cannons of war.
Punk is dead. Grunge is dead. Everything is rewarmed. If the what-evers of this generation want to be taken seriously then maybe you should stop searching for the deeper meaning and take it from people who were there the first time around. Punk is glorified into something it wasn't and kids walk around like they are more hard core then Sid or Johnny could ever hope to be. Lighten up kiddlets and find a place of your own. You want to grow a mohawk, then go do it. Just don't expect anyone to take you seriously till you earn the respect and maturity as you walk around with it. Also don't
ever, everask/think anyone has to make life easy due to how you look. Don't wonder why they look at you, after you go walking around with a symbolic sign of "LOOK HERE" Don't ever ask for special treatment either. You want a mohawk then know a few things first. Don't go whining about equal rights and other bullshit. My husband had to shave his to get a job; and you know what he is still more punk then little shits with liberty spikes (and he makes more an hour then they can if he choose to be a punk and not adult) I've seen young punks come and sneer at him only to watch him school their asses in public for being stupid and assuming towards people they deem too old!!!
I know of adults who are lame in docs and mohawks, they have not a clue and not sense enough to admit they just like the look.
By the way....my husband had a mohawk, and dresses like a punk, he dresses grunge, he dresses EMO. Then again he(me too) knows its dead and has been, like grunge we are sad and tear up over old records of the D.K. preforming live. Not because it is something oh so kwel. Just because something is missing and it is just sad. Call me pathetic, I will be the first to admit it. But when a entire crowd at a concert starts to mosh to MUZAK then I would rather be sobbing into a frayed mohair sweater and my converse, remembering when Time Life Records did not have a Best of Grunge or Best of Punk collection, then spend my time trying to communicate with people who weren't alive for any of it and swear they know it all.
[end raging tagent on degeneration of music, kiddlet punkers and lable bitching from kids I can't even slap due to legal implications]
You may now proceed with your normally scripted free for all.
