Niggas wanna die
You see, usually, being stubborn is not really a good thing. But in this case, I really think that it is. I thought that what you said to Andrew about liking the movie "Phantom of the Opera" was absolutely wonderful. But then, of course, you backed down. I think that you're just afraid of how he'll treat you after you ignore him, and how his little fucking mindless cohorts will react to his new aversion towards you.
Before I get into that, I'd like to talk about what I think about Andrew, fucking pompous asshole.
Now, I'll say this in advance, although I'm positive that you know this. I am not one to judge. We've been through this conversation before..you know how I think about people. I do not judge. Yes, I do think about the prospects of one's personality, either when I first meet them, or first hear about them. But, I do not develop an axiom from such a deduction. It's merely a guideline, so to speak. Not even that. It's just a bunch of thoughts. I do not solidify these thoughts until I have a substantial amount of information within my arsenal, figuratively speaking, of course.
So, with that being said, I'd like to say that I'm pretty sure although I may not know Andrew well enough, I think that I have bits and pieces of him figured out. I also don't think that he's all that complicated, either. I don't think that he has any "hidden motives," or "childhood demons." I that that he is, quite simply, just an egocentric moron. A pretentious jerk. A half-witted dunce with absolutely NO class to speak of. Andrew fucking thinks that he's the goddamn messiah, that he's godlike. So of course, he likes to surround himself ONLY with those who he thinks are worthy of his presence. Of course, this analysis alone is inaccurate. (***) Not ONLY are his opinions of himself counterfactual, but his assessment of others is, as well. And so you know why? Because he's fucking retarded. He's one of those pseudo-elitist assholes who sees a TOTALLY COOL new indie band, looks up a bunch of these fucking almost exotic and unheard-of indie bands, and then grandiloquently talking to everyone about them, as if there's absolutely NOTHING in the world that he would rather speak of, and condescends everyone else for not having the same otherworldly, and yet completely useless, knowledge that he does. He's the kind of person who looks up the word "class" in Webster's new dictionary, I'm sure you've heard of it, "Webster's Dictionary and Guide to Conventional Stereotypes." There of course, he finds, under this word, things like "classical music," "cavier," and "fancy red neckties." He then proceeds to exude every one of these phrases in his everyday life, by showing off his minimal musical talent, chatting about prosaic playwrights, and feigning a love for the most conventional of music.
Some might have the theory that now that you, a wonderful human being with so much more to offer than he does, has come into the picture, he somehow feels threatened, jealous, etc. etc. But no, I don't think that that's true at all. Instead, he just thinks that he's somehow "better" than you. Of course, like I said, (***) he's a fucking moron, and therefore, does not realize that this is not true. He's also very ignorant, in many cases. For example, he kept chastising you for getting 3rd chair, yet he doesn't realize or take the time to find out that being in 3rd chair essentially makes you like, second french horn. Like you said, you've got the same part, etc. etc. He also hasn't taken the time to know that you don't really care about how you did on auditions, as long you got a good chair. He is SO fucking oblivious that it is not even worth it to talk it out with him, although that would be a bit productive. But that would mean talking to him, and in this case, I think it's best to just point out how incompetent he is. Why? Because talking to him will give him a warm fuzzy feeling inside, but it won't make him step back and say, "Whoa, I'm being a pretentious, egocentric asswipe. I should step the fuck down, and apologize." Being spiteful, however, is sort of like the socratic method. It will not only help you let out all of your frustrations, but it will also, step-by-step, lead him to his own enlightenment. Now, if he really IS as much of a moron as I'm making him out to be, than this will take some time, but I think that it will be easier, and more worth your time.
..Now, your father. I just think that he simply just does NOT want his ass kicked. He makes up little white lies, not because he has substantial reason to, but just because he wants everything to go in the best possible way.
I hope your mother isn't angry with me. I think that I often turn her off a little because I'm not a very open and friendly person, and because of all the little things that happened at all county, her having to wait for my mother to come, etc. But, I don't know.
OH WAIT. I have a surprise for you:
Keith and I were talking about cool names, like "Ace" and "Kane," when I came across that entry. Meep. Signing off.
