Recap on my earlier “Attention seekers” post

Hi guys. Sorry I haven’t blogged in ages. I’ve just been really, REALLY lazy lately. I was thinking about my “ ” post when I realised that it really isn’t just Lady Gaga. While she is annoyingly “unique” (stress the inverted commas) people have been doing that for ages.

Take Goths and Emos (Emoes? I’m gonna stick with Emos).  I know a couple of people I would class in this category and have had some discussions about this with them. Some of the stuff they do is ridiculous. I’ve heard stories about Marilyn Manson which chill my bones and are being stated as absolute fact. And this is really scary, Excrement eating, gay sex on stage, freaky-ass stuff. I never got a good answer when I asked why he did this other than “to make a different statement”.  This stuff is scary.

Know while Marilyn Manson is an extreme example and the stuff they say he went through are probably true so you can understand his freakiness. But there is one guy in my school who could not be counted as a goth who has “gone through a lot”. I’ve been to his house and it doesn’t seem that his life his that bad. When I asked a friend about this, who is good friends with our subject, he told me that this guy suffers from a syndrome making him a bit socially awkward. I think he just defined what every teenager has thought they had, loosely, for centuries. If bad Disney shows have taught me anything, it’s that every single teenager goes through weird social awkwardness. They also taught me that if you try something completely stupid and illegal to fix a problem but learn a lesson at the end of it and say sorry it’ll be fine, but that’s beside the point. Our goth guinea pig seems to have a great deal of friends, to tell the truth. Yet he still came into school on a colours day  wearing a fishnet vest over a slipknot T-shirt and black, PVC pants that were laced at the front. He also thinks that satanism should replace Christianity because Christianity is evil but I’ll address that misconception at a later date.

It’s also that type of person in my post, making bad inside jokes loudly to get people to look at them. They’re pretty annoying but their annoying-ness is old and I really stopped caring anymore. They kinda fit into this song (Music starts at 1:01). That sort of person shows up at PE, ruining the game by cheating to make themselves look cool.

 

Get my point?
