Sometimes, you can’t really identify what sort of ‘look’ some one is trying to accomplish.
They make u ask questions to try to figure out the ultimate question: “WHAT IS THIS BRO ALL ABOUT?”
- Is he from another planet?
- Did he just get a gift certificate to Hot Topic?
- Is he attending some sort of alt Irish funeral?
- Is he a weirdo European/South American?
- What’s the deal with the free-spirited bracelets?
- Is he going to a DropKickMurphies concert?
- Does he cut all of his jeans into cuffed-yet-frayed jorts in order to show off his collection of post-quirky dress socks?
Basically, this bro’s personal brand is stuck in purgatory. He cannot decide who he wants to be. He is PurgatoryBro.
Here is a flow chart representing your self-concept, and how it can ascend into heaven (altness), or end up in hell.
What does heaven mean 2 u?
Who is stuck in hell?
Doesn’t it suck that we all have 2 walk the Earth as mainstreamers b4 we can ascend into altness? (Even lil alts who are sculpted by their parents experience at least 48 hours of being mainstream b4 they are dressed like lil alts.)
Is G-d a man or a woman?

I’m scared 2 die, CRLS : (
what if I go 2 HELL and become LinkinPark-core, because I didn’t wear enough Am Appy in “life”?

God is an asexual cloud with a smiley face. Duh.
What's worse is when parents encourage their kids to be mainstream. My mother often tries to give my American Appy to goodwill. Then she tells me to wear my old mainstream clothes (Hollister, A&F) and asks "why don't you dress 'cute' anymore??"
Yesterday I was wearing wayfarers and she told me they were the ugliest glasses she had ever seen. So she handed me a pair of massive white sunglasses I had never seen. I looked like a MNSTRMR. It was a nightmare. Naturally, I threw the glasses across the room and yelled at my mother for being such a close-minded fascist.
People should NEVER take for granted their free-spirited parents. I will epitomize Alt-Mom so my kids won't have to go through what I did.

PurgatoryBro, with his quirky accessories and styling choices, is in the emerging market of ‘Alt-Irish Retro Bros’ who are free spirited enough to wear homemade jewelry and carry a bag yet still masculine enough to get drunk with his band after a local all-ages show and get into a fistfight with the local skinheads/hardcore bros.
Yet his one mistake was his choice of shoes. His unidentifiable gray sneakers show he’s 95% committed to his personal brand but hasn’t yet taken the final step of choosing which shoes best complement his style of authentic altness. IMO, his best options are the Quirky Colored Converse or Interesting Print Converse (weekday wear optional.)

if those are an early issue of quirky eco-friendly simple brand sneakers then this bro is taking alt preparedness to the next level. it is rare these days to find a bro who says it all, and all at the same time, without saying any thing.
this is G.I. BRO. he is down for any thing.

OMG SRSLY

i believe hipster cough up is more about hating on people who think there cool like the guy who invented hipster run off. Hip is relative to the pretentious dicks around you. if you thought hipster runoff was ever actually cool you are delusional this is a blog people. Blogs are far from cool.

hipster coughup … it worries me – if someone that retarded can enjoy HRO enough to make a weak talentless copycat blog, what does that say about the peeps who enjoy and laugh at most posts on here, including myself?
HRO = Bigger than Addy Sandler in 2k9?

i saw a BRO TIE version of this very same dude at a bar yesterday eating a salad with chopsticks and wearing high water pants and argyle socks in 92 degree weather. my entry-level alt friends and i mocked him and talked about how much we luv chili’s.
p.s. is there an alt-patron saint who can speed up our journey(z) to altness????

i wear american appy and i’ve served 3 tours of the elektr0 wars. does that mean i go to alt heaven?
Reply
i served in the elektr0 wars for 18 months. when i fall asleep i can still hear the thunder of glitter grenades and the neon napalm exploding overhead as we dived for cover. the doctors only supply maxalt for the terrors and the folks back home stare at us like we they dont even know us anymore.
WHERES OUR PARADE!? is it even alt to have one?

What if I’m in ALT Heaven and I dress like a goth when depressed? Or a scenester when I’m chippy? Or Paris Hilton when I’m hot? lol.

if he was going to a dropkick murphys concert he probably wouldn’t have made it home that night. stop with all the deepness about god. we all know you’re shallow.

hmm, how do you fit ‘advancement’ into the equation? I feel like it’s gotta be somewhere.

wow you’re right. no alt person ever was born that way. it’s like a pokemon evolution.
