Emo
This weekend was different from most... Brian went to Lake Hartwell and I went home to visit my family. My father has been very sick (he spent 20 days in the hospital last month and NO ONE KNEW) sad, i know... but he values his privacy and I try to let him have it. So, I went home to look at a nursing home for my father... and I toured it and he is now there.
On saturday I took three of my nephews (Aron, Damien and Jacob) to see that Ricky Bobby movie... not very funny to me... I think Will Ferrell is loosing his funny. Afterwards my oldest nephew, Aron, wanted to go to see a band play. He has a friend who is in the band... and I love going to shows and I know how much of a bummer it is for there to be one and not be able to get there... so we went.
What I want to know is... what's wrong with the youth of america? These kids have the worst taste in clothing, hair and music... it's like they are leaving a big ol black X on the face of their generation.
I know what we all wore in high school puzzled our parents... the shag hair cuts, the bell bottom jeans and chunky shoes, but these kids look like someone with a mental condition did their styling. All of the guys (with the exception of my nephew) were wearing girls jeans that were wayyy.... too tight, their little brothers t-ball t-shirt, studded belts with big ol belt buckles *which i liked* and old nasty Vans sneakers. The girls were not much better... they too were wearing too tight jeans and stupid t shirts that were too small.
The music was just awful! I hate to see people wasting their talents... and thats what this was, a waste of talent. I guess to them it looks good and sounds good... but to me it was far from good. I was hoping that the generation after mine would be cooler than my generation... and i guess from where they are sitting it is. This whole Emo things has gotta go! IT makes me feel old, and it's not flattering.
