Isn’t it interesting that these days: it is social unacceptable to live with your parents passed about 25; manual labour is considered of less value than a desk job; a desk job is considered less valuable than a management position; the Americans are allowed really big guns but no one else is; most new popular culture sucks; capitalism goes hand-in-hand with conservatism; computers can launch missiles but still can’t seem to handle printing; we have a society built on oil and are running out at an extreme rate; and with all this running through your head you happen to catch sight of your reflection in a glass door and realise you’re just a skinny white guy stuck in the middle of it all. Not surprisingly it was a fuck this, I’m going home early day. The rest of the day was dedicated to making t-shirts and listening to the Ramones.
Does anyone else get the feeling that something has got to give in Western society soon. Everything feels so tense and rigid. Usually shit breaks when that happens.
