Epiphany #2: The world is FULL of idiots.

I'm not even going to drag this one out, I could be here for days crapping on like this, that would be an invalid waste of time for me and you both (since you're reading this).

Most of this idiocy arises from this insatiable desire for attention that whiny little teenagers seem to crave these days. There are so many ways people can pull off being idiots that I don't really want to get started, so I'm just going to jump straight to the number one thing that pisses me off.

Mob mentality/conformity. Nothing else pisses me off more than that, it's the #1 source of ALL stupidity.

I can't understand for the life of me why people can't just live life and be themselves without posing for the rest of the world and crying out for attention. Like people who label themselves, i.e. People with the word 'Goth' or 'Emo' in their username, or who proudly refer to themselves as such. Then you go to their page and they're all like "Yeah, death is awesome. Boy, I sure love blood." followed with the shittiest 'dark' poetry they can muster, because apparently it makes them look all awesome, mysterious and unique, just like the hundreds of other 'Goths' and 'Emos' out there. Whatever happened to liking sports and games, or animals, or the outdoors and stuff? Why are kids these days into self-mutilation and crappy music and virtually nothing else? I can't stand people who proudly wear labels. None of these people are genuinely Gothic or genuinely Emo, its just them vainly trying to model themselves as close to the stereotype as possible because they think they'll be all hardcore like Billie Joe Armstrong from Green Day.

Newsflash for you kids: Go outside. There's a whole world out there. Stop living in your tiny pathetic bubbles and buying into shitty trends because large multinational companies are brainwashing you into buying their shitty products that they sell for $723,243, when in fact they were made by starving kids in Malaysia who get paid 50c an hour to make your shitty mass produced 'Unique' tee-shirts. I know half the clothes I own are probably made by slaves, but I at least spare the retailers their million dollar markup and buy from wholesalers (seriously). Sure, that isn't saving the kids, but I'm not giving the big guys up there any satisfaction from MY damn pockets.

The point of this slightly crappy post? Learn to be yourself. In the genuine fucking sense. Explore yourself and find out who you really are and what you really like instead of sheepishly following all the other lemmings off the cliff. There's more to the world than making idiotic statements for attention and your shitty, unoriginal music (granted that some of it is actually pretty good) that you listen to while you cut your wrists because your life in American suburbia sucks and your daddy didn't buy you that new car.
