dress up

Last night while torturing myself watching the last Lost ever**
I got this text message from Teresa:

"I'm at the most hipster show of my life u would love it/embarrass yourself. "

Uh you should talk TG, I think you know a bit more about embarrassing yourself than I do.

But I will admit, I have a slight problem with trying to be cool and failing miserably.

Watch me try and tell this story in cool in manner but really only come off as a pretentious and loser-eee.

This one time I was at a backyard punk show in East Oakland when I ran into the neighborhood coke dealer. He, like always, was dressed in rags and I, having just come from my soul-stealing job at Abercrombie & Fitch, looked like a preppy douche bag. He took one look at me and said
"Guess you forgot to come in costume too."

While I was talking to a coke dealer ( + 2 hip points) and was at a punk show (+ 5 hip points),
I was the worst dressed person there (- 10 hip points)
and I don't do coke (-100 hip points).

Ever since then I've always thought of hipsters as wearing costumes.

But shit, they look cool.

I want to look cool too!

I think I might sue, because Max Read just plagiarized my heart.
