ill answer that
considering it only has one principle and ive based my
enitre life around it, it can be summed up as this
FUCK IT.
or maybe
FUCK YOU
and lastly
FUCK EVERYTHING
do what you wanna do, fuck everyone else is how it started.
like minded people saying fuck it
now these little goddamn pussies have turned it into a fashion show and made the
punk look and defeated the whole purpose of punk, those hottopic little fuckers destroyed the entire premise of DIY
so in a way, i can almost understand how this could be possible, the whole thing that started this thread
that being said it, that mindset in the end defeats punk because thats the type of shit PUNK WAS STARTED AGAINST because that is the majority, hence the man, and fuck the man.
even if you get a good president in office, still fuck the man because theres so many other bastards in there it will only do nominal anything
you cant change most shit, so fuck it, change what you can, have a good time, and fuck them, fuck me, and fuck you to anyone i see seems to cover it.
for me anyway.
all of me and punkrockjoe's views differences aside, we totally agree on this as the reason we piss on most of the so called punk community (we call it being hardcore, but this is really what the topic is boiling down to)
like people that would support this atrocity of man.
and as a further note, i think the emo thing buttfucked the already destroyed name of punk anyway.
i agree for the most part with g0dz3illas take on all that. pretty good in summation.
its that EXACT type of thinking that i say makes now the perfect time for the next punk (since they ruined the word, we need a new one)
its the perfect conditions and i think in the next 4 years that type of mindset will really get centerstage and steal the thunder from alot of the bullshit going on because well, so many people think and wish it and dont it (i definitly disclude myself from that catagory)
its not your clothes. your fucking band list. how many studs you have on your jacket. you IM UNIQUE hairdo.
its the fucking idea of resistance in the stain.
its coming back, and i think people on their side and alot of the faux-punk liars will both be running and hiding when it does.
one of the many things im talking about when i say a shift is coming (im staying off the R word because its overused and becoming meaningless) because its less revoltution and more the type of change a werewolf goes thru at full moon.
i rant this out not lashing at anyone, just glad some people have posted a few sentence that made me smile or sigh in relief.
and on a last note on that black flag sticker jack saw, hey man if the owner still has the mindset, just got old and DIY-ed his way into whatever hes doing now, hes a punk in a caddy with a blackflag sticker on it as far as im concerned. otherwise, he should give up the glory days. we all have to sometime. it can be as sad as a 40 year old guy fitting into his lettermans jacket from 20+ years ago when he played highschool football
alas its 430 in the fucking mourning and im ranting again.
/rant.
*edit note: damn i mispelled alot of shit, typed that out in one burst, no im not fixing it. grammar nazis fuck off.
