So, pneumonia was the verdict from the doctor. 10 days of Antibiotics. That means 4-6 practices missed. Its a month of my stomack acting like I’ve eaten a gallon of icecream each day.
However, as I’m on my third day with Antibiotics and I’m feeling more perky by the day, I’m not complaining too bad. I might not play the first game of the season, but I’ll damn well dress it.
The poem has gotten some attention. Let me just say, its not just Goths. I realize the need to rebel and be different is strong with most of us. It is as much the annoyance with the hip-hop crowd, or the heavy metal people. Anyone who chooses to dress a certain way and expect to be treated with a certain level of respect because of it.
Yes, its the misanthropic bouncer again. Every hip-hop concert there’s trouble. I mean fighting trouble. Every night some dolled up girl comes in, there’s hell to pay if she doesn’t get her way.
It becomes a uniform that dictates a behavior. Like a culture one can take on and of at will.
And I’m just saying no. Your uniform does not impress me. Be it a push up bra, bleached hair and red lipstick, or a general “dark” theme.
I’ll give you the respect you deserve. As a human, as a customer and as a friend. But as a hip-hopper, “babe”, heavy mettal, goth, emo, techno, punk, spoiled brat or rebel? No.
I mean, how much respect would I deserve if I dressed up as a clown because I felt so happy all the time?
Maybe some for originality, but certainly none for taste!
