I wanted to write something funny, because quite frankly, this is what Im suppose to
do. But today is not a good day for me. Without any details, I will just say I had one
shitty day. And fuck, it is not over yet. Enough about that, maybe writing a column will
clear my mind. I will write about something that I hate. When I say hate, I mean HATE.
Something that confuse me to the point I ask myself if I should think like that. Today,
children, we will talk about conformity. 
The whole zebra thing is not really a good idea,
but check under Conformity. "When people are free to do as they want, they usually
imitate each others". Fuck, thats so true. People, you, me, the guy walking on
the street and that girl you spotted at the bar last night, are always imitating somebody.
And thats not necessary bad. What make me sick, is imitating the mass. Why
couldnt somebody get dress just like they were in the 80? I personally think
the 80 clothes are the worst ever, but WHO CARE? Well, most people care. Because if
I think like the mass, they wont dress like that, even if they want to. And
thats BULLSHIT. It piss me off to know that since humans became civilized, to when
this freaky earth will explode (no, we wont be on mars, bastards), the damn mass
will always choose for people who dont have the mind to choose what to do
themselves. WAKE UP! I, myself, is an anti-conformist. I hate big company for their child
labor. I hate conformist for being part of the mass, I hate the mass for being so
IDENTICAL!
Dont even try the "We are not identical, we
are cool and in" shit. Someone is cool when people talk about "how cool"
this guy is. But you are fucking up everything. How a guy wearing the SAME fucking T-shirt
than everybody can be cool? Well, he can, but why? Because of his T-shirt? Because the
mass decided this T-shirt was cool?
Now, you have all those skaters. Skate-board, I think
its cool. Maybe you dont, and its you choice. I tried once and I just
cant get on it. I suck, its true. But I love to see all those guys on TV
getting their head smash on the ground for fun. They are good dammit, and they fear
nothing. I dont know if they are jackass, but nevermind: They are cool. Someday, the
mass decided they had enough of one product, and decided to become skaters. How many of
you bought a skate, but never really did something with it? No, an holly (spelling?) is
not something. You see, the mass decided that this was "in", and every fucking
losers around the globes bought it. They decided they needed one.
If that year you bought a skate and enjoyed it for a long
time, congratulations, you didnt follow the mass for nothing. The mass introduced
you to this extreme sport, but you didnt changed when something else come off. What
the conformist do is that they change when the mass change. When I was young, I
wasnt following the mass, but almost. I was following my best friend, who was 2
years older than me. When he talked to me about the Power Rangers, I became one of the
biggest fans. To this point, the show was quite entertaining for someone of my age. 4-5
months later, the mass decided this show was cool. My God, every fucking body had an Power
Rangers action figure and were ready to pay big bucks for every lunch box with the PR logo
on it. When the card "Magic" became a hit, I followed the mass and paid big
bucks for a great deck. When it wasnt in anymore, the ľ of my friends stopped
playing. I played during 3 years. I dont know how much money I put into those cards,
but I dont care. I loved playing Magic: The Gathering. You know why I stopped
playing? Not because some guys laughed at me for playing this "stupid" game. Not
because it wasnt "in". Because the mass decided for a short (very short)
period of time that it was cool again. Kids with money to waste bought the best cards.
They knew it wasnt gonna last long, Im sure. But they begged for money to
their parents, and destroyed every opponents who like me, had least money to waste into
something I had being paying for years. Thats pretty shitty.
Dont worry, everything cant last forever. In
a couple of years, we will remember Britney Spears and pokémon just like me remember MC
Hammer and Transformers right now. We will be forced to watch somebody or something else,
something new, something up-to-the-date. Please, do what you want to do. If you think Jazz
is cool, I beg you to get Jazz music and listen to it when you want. If you think Limp
Bizkit got great lyric, maybe killing yourself is the only way to get out of misery
(Im kidding, dont do that. Try to hurt yourself very hard and buy some
Beatles/Hendrix/Doors, you should be cure).
Dont Rape my sheeps!!! |
