Dear The Past,
miss u. luv 2 get nostalgic and think abt u. it's kinda meaningful. ttyl, i hope.
l0ve,
crls
****************
Kinda tired of blogging abt what's 'current'. Thought I might slow down & talk abt the past. I remember the days before I even knew what 'alt' was. I was just consumerCore. I was an innocent kid who wanted 2 b special. Maybe things never change. Just wanna be exposed 2 authentic products with which I can align my personal brand.
Remember when it was alternative 2 look like this?
(What's My age again, yall?)
S0 glad I didn't get 'too darkhearted' during my formative years. I think 'pop sensibilities' are just embedded deep within me. This is why I listen to bloghaus/electro.
I remember when merging rap & rock was the most innovative thing since Elvis/MichaelJackson/Daft Punk taught us how 2 dance.
Just wanna breathe into the microphone like an animal with guitars behind me. Wanna inspire kidz.
Should I go 2 jail? Should I get 3 cold beers for all of the men in my chain gang?
Is life still like a box of chocolates? Now that Obama is the President, could our nation still identify with a 'slow' guy who lived the most meaningful life in the history of the world?
Was Joe Pesci better in 'Home Alone' or 'My Cousin Vinny'?
///Wish I would step back from that ledge ////
Redefining authenticity.
Searching for meaning by re-examining the past.

I wish we could step back in time and un-invite moby to the cool side of culture.
@caswell, ditto.
@caswell, I can't be the only one that thinks he is a total douchebag... if his good album to crap album ratio was better than I might cut him some slack... but probability not. It's just so easy to hate some bands... like coldplay. I love shitting on coldplay and I'm not sure why... their music isn't that bad... it's just the constant out pour of fake authenticity... that and they think they are Radiohead... and they are CLEARLY NOT... not even close. Not even Radiohead wishes they were Radiohead.
It's the 90's/early 2k's on HRO... Please tell me they aren't coming back... or is Obama planing something with an intern and a cigar that we don't about yet?
i STILL dig blink 182. their last album was great.
@blackAlt>>>blipster, there LAST album was really quite good...the only one I listen to.... and I like boxcar racer.... and angels and airwaves but I'm embarrassed to tell people this.... no self respecting alt is allowed to let anyone know that they have anything remotely resembling emo on their iplayer.
@anony, are you serious? u obviously don't know anything about quality.
This they your EFT patient
This they your EFT patient concerns. Relaxation to say, may. Do generally work many who it and. acheter clomid 100mg You can considered to. achat clomid
this post has me crying. just perfect. fucking PERFECT AND SAD AND TRUE ugh ugh gughhg. there's nothing left to discover/invent (except space elevator) /do that hasn't be done. step back from the ledge tho carles. and marry me.
"Just wanna breathe into the microphone like an animal with guitars behind me. Wanna inspire kidz." -gah!
@escher, ME TOO.
Just wanna B 'kummin over u' (@00:36) crlz. *soO bad
I used to have koRn t-shirts. They had good marketing gimix like aligning their personal brand with adidas...which were both available in my local mall. It was like everytime I wnt 2 the mall i had a meaningful experience bcuz i was surrounded by things I lvd *sOo bad. I l8tr realized that all I really wanted in life was to see what drugs felt like and maybe get tugged in the club everyso often.
@*jesse, I managed to avoid quite a few of the early 2k trends... early 90's on the other hand... lets not go there.... grunge is still totally alt.
@anony,
i just want some bugleboy pants & a flannel vest w/a hood on it. Do u know where I can get some Jnco pants? I rlly wanna cover my entire shoe with the leg of my pants. *soO dope!
Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Felicity were meaningful to me. It was like i pretended to be living their lives, since mine was so boring and uneventful in high school.
Welcome to 7th grade all over again.
you are guys are fggts. none of that shit was evr cool. i think its time for yall to make your own moves in this world instead of puttin around getting told what you like and whats hawt and poppin by crls or whatever other "sources" you may have. i was born alt.... because of the drugs my momma took. (RTRD) but 5R5LY... missu joe pesci
@Supraaa5r5ly, see you miss the point. this was BEFORE most of us alts became alt... now we know how foolish we all were... but wasn't it great to be blissful?
@anony, ,,,,,..,.,.,.,....yaa the only i remember before i was alt is ninja turtles, oh and NON-organic macaroni & cheese. im sry im so mad @the wrld.. the truth is growing up with religion made me alt. i said fuck that to wearing a (nice looking/fitted/classy) suit a long time ago. jst tryin to find the last store i'll ever shop at yall.
@Supraaa5r5ly, "the truth is growing up with religion made me alt." Oh that's priceless... you must read this written by my favorite alt non-celebrity:

I think it's just sick and wrong when people phycologicly warp their children... and they don't even know it... they think they doing a "good" thing.
I don't really know if Danny's an athiest now but I'm like 99% certain.... of course you could have a whole discusion on the meaning of the term and I don't really wish to go there.
@anony, could be a cop out but i was raised to fit in with erebody else maybe i'd play basketball on a team or actually give a shit. now im an "alt liberal" that doesn't really do anything for the cause except smoke drugs.
@Supraaa5r5ly, damn it "IF i was raised..."
Um, hi...My So Called Life.
Let's all dye our hair red and dress like lumberjacks forev.
@NePlusUltra,
I think Claire Danes was my first boner. She was pretty alt/authentic.
Real World, Road Rules, *NSYNC
@adajdlajdl, No, no, and NO.
@anony, um early real world/road rules was very intriguing, they actually chose slightly interesting/intelligent people for the cast, unlike the majority of reality shows recently. and nsync's first album was a pop masterpiece (mainly in part to the million dollar producers), i dont care if i seem uncool to admit that, its a fuck of a lot better than most of this cheesy REPETITIVE electro/BORING/indie BULLSHIT that people seem to think is hip and/or progressive.
@lame, point taken.... my other big "reality" TV embarrassment is kenny vs. spenny. I don't find what they do all that entertaining, it's all in their personalities and seeing how they act and respond to situations. It's a classic pushover and narcissist... two people that absolutely bring out the worst personality traits of each other. It's painful to watch...

ahhhhh the good 'ol days :)
I miss watching Popular, Roswell, and Kids in The Hall.

u know what's great about your past? lil'human accesories. BRING THEM BACK PLS
@pornocrata, YES. lil alt human accessories! best HRO gimmick of 2k8
I really miss Fred Durst. He was my halloween costume (couldn't find a Justice jacket) and I used that exact picture to replicate him down to the butt-chin-facial-hair. Truly a great.
this website/you is/are horrible. get your head out of your ass.
@simon, I used to think that also... it's kind of addictive... like the crystal meth.
HOWSBOUT REALLY GOOD E, CHEAPER SNEEZ N TKING GRAV-BONG HITS IN A BATHTUB...... OH ALSO CRAZY HORSE/ST. IDES 4000 GIGSSS
@jonnypure, hahaha, skipping skool w/10 bros & ruffly 1 gram of swag/seeds-all huddled round the tub choking off our home made pepsi 2 liter grav bong, these were the dayz...
@iknow, did anyone actually get high or did you just THINK you were high?
@anony, i see where your trying to go with this anony/carles, but we got really stoned, i hate to admit it but i actually would get the spins and i threw up a couple of times! who the fuck throws up off some weed? we didn't smoke weed like we do now, so i guess it was a tolerance thing, that and our older brothers would only sell us the scwag, kinda wish i never knew about dank that way i could still get ripped off some dirt...
@anony,
one tyme i threw up on the bus after smoking too much swag. i just started laughing about it afterwards. everyone was looking at me like i was on drugs.
@anonymous, Crazy... why would they think your on drugs?
That's the one thing about weed I hate. EVERYONE knows your high if you don't smoke it often. Most other drugs you can remain pretty straight on.
ALSO WHA BOUT THE STATE THE GR8EST SKETCH COM EVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Awww, this post brings back memories of the insane 90s.
more important than all of this bullshit...who the fuck is Fake Blood? is it crls? some people say its carles but i dunno.
@Anonymous, straight up all lies. everyone says hes soulwax or whatever but hes not. the only reason ppl think hes carles is because there both anon celebs. fake blood is some old fat dude. thats why hes anon because his image would contradict his amazing music. a really smart ploy in the alt community where image is 90% of your success. via mom jeans.
