About Me:
I really don't understand punk culture. For the longest time, I have been trying to figure it out but in the end, I keep running into these paradoxes. "Punks" try to define their culture by setting criterion on which to differentiate each other as "punks" or "poseurs". Yet most punks want you to be yourself and not to conform, This is where the paradox kicks in, did the universe just blink out of existance. No...but wait!!, I smell the rancid stench of hypocrisy.

Now don't get me wrong, we are all hypocrits in our own ways. No culture can be follow a perfect definition and refusal to accept this is arrogant. This is what bothers me about "hardcore" punks. They place themselves at the center of "punk" culture and proclaim they are the definition of "punk". Not everyone can live like a "hardcore" punk. I admit I could never be a squatter. "Hardcore" punks refusal to accept difference may help them define their culture, but it dooms them to a violation of the principals that they stood for in the first place, being individuals.

I live outside the "hardcore"'s definition of "punk" because even though I look like a punk. I have a mohawk, plaid pants, leather jacket, etc. I usually get called a "poseur" for several reasons.

First, I enjoy being an intellectual. Sorry assholes, I enjoy having a fucking brain. I can't help the fact that chemistry excites me...especially the chemistry of nitroglycerine. Holy shit what a fun experiment that was, it ended with a bang. Don't worry I kept all my body parts.

Second, I refuse to commit to a life of self-destruction. Yes I love alcohol, pot, etc., like some of my punk comrads, but I refuse to be pulled down by it. To create positive change within the world, especially with the god damn fascist government that run this country, you can't be blitz out your skull and puking on the floor everynight.

Lastly, the thing that fucking irritates me is government and even worse the greater ignorant populace under its reach. In the beginning, we create government and gave it power over us...its natural reaction was to gain more power...with this power, the government exploited its populace for its gain whether monetary or more power....the government stifled all attempts for the people to regulate its power or abolish it all together....the small amount of people who dissented were ostrasized, jailed, and silenced while the rest of populace watches...the government continues to exploit.
In the end, I don't blame the government for all these abuses. I blame the ignorant, fearful populace that doesn't stand up for themselves. The government needs to fear its people because that is the only way the government can be regulated. Failure for the masses to ensure this fear, dooms a small minority of dissenters. Case in point, government isn't the only problem, people are also the problem.

    I just read your profile and just wanted to comment on something....I think it is fucking fantastic that there are people like you out there. People that actually like to use their brains and think about what they're saying and believing. I liv ein Vancouver, and it is fucking pathetic. All the "punk" kids here are so fucking obsessed with being more punk then the next kid that they resort to partying nonstop, acting like obnoxious little fucking assholes, and then when you confront them on something (like claiming anarchy and nazi at the same time) they flip out and call you a poser.

    ?!?!?!?!

    anyways. sorry its so long haha.

    oh yeah...and i wasnt saying partying is bad. i love it. but i still like to think and everything.

    Yes, exactly. Because when you come right out and say fuck you youre a skank, you just sound like a dumbass. Being a cunt is an art, in my mind; you have to be subtle. It's a helluva lot funnier when you say something all calm and stuff and theyre like oh thanks and then five minutes later theyre like running after you yelling you fucking bitch. It's like wow...five minutes to figure out that saying you look like a ten dollar hooker means youre look like a cheap whore.

    Haha. Never done that...I'd imagine it was fantastic ^_^
    Ahh. Well. That is what makes you unique...doing things that all the other "punk" kids don't do. Like watching Spongebob and listening to Celtic music and dropping plsatic army dudes with little parachutes offa ten story parking garage haha.

    Anyways. No problem. It was good reading haha. I dont mind.
