Dear Lord please teach me to bite my tongue before something else bites my ass.

Dear American Teenagers,
     You are not hardcore or hXc. You are not scene, and you are not emo. You are however, very very annoying. Please shut your mouths. And if you think it's hypocritical of me to say this, fuck off. I never claimed to be any of that bullshit. Thank you.
      Sincerely, Annie

So anyway.

I have new hair. And I still might cut

Still a tiger, still very awesome. Beautiful pics. I especially like Charleston and DQ. Your hair looks great.

And I totally second your letter to teens.

You look beautiful as always. When are you coming back to see us? Maybe next year...
I love the DQ piccie. I want to steal it. Really.

Thing to add to the letter.
"PS, Kiss my ass."

Aww, I really do miss you guys. I haven't seen any of you in forever. I'll have to try and visit soon.

Dear Annie,

I respectfully disagree.

American teenagers ARE emo and harcore.. as well as goths, mods, and punks. Culture at large is pretty damn fast into co-opting any label into little more than a fashion choice. People, displaying their paradoxical nature at its best, beg to be catagorized and labeled in order to express their individuality.

I won't contest that American teens are also very annoying, but they can spend 40 bucks at the mall and legitimately call themselves whatever the fuck they please. None of those terms have underlying tennets, just pricetags.

I call my fashion Mexifabulous. It combines the eye makeup aesthetic of the metrosexual, with sombreros. Jump on the bandwagon, choo choo!
