In this post, I will present four different members of the alternative community.
It is up to you to decide which alt is the most authentic.
Alt #1: The Bro Who Bleached His Hair
Alt #2: Free spirited facepaint eye mask swoop bang multi-coloured hair alt
Alt #3: Alt with Natural Highlights Who Hangs out with Possible Alt Celebs (the era of Excessive Hair Dying regrets)
Alt #4: post-PeteWentz simple raw alt in grey t-shirt which represents ‘being comfy in my clothes/with myself’ circa brainwashed smile // an IHaveFoundHappinessBro
Which of these bros is the most authentic version of ALT?
The purpose of this post is to question what ‘authenticity’ truly means.
Were you more authentic when u were ’searching for your optimal personal brand’?
Or are you always the most authentic in the present?
Do you have to be ’skinnie’ to be ‘in touch with humanity’, or is there a certain level of ‘vulnerability’ that you can experience while you are a chunker [via insecurities]?
Is it important to ‘feel good about yourself’ to have a bloggable personal brand?

Numbr Three. =’s Most Authentic.
Alt 1 is a lil 2 depressed looking 2 b authentically wearing his hair so blondly.
Alt 4 just woke up aka I dont believe he would evr leave the house like that. Thus, not authentic.
Nd I know 4 a fact that Alt 2 definitely hit on me at the most recent CSS concert I went 2.

@dankface, Yes, the answer is in fact none of the above. The most difficult personal choice I have to make is what t-shirt to wear.

@fuck perez, perez is bitter, fake, hates himself and compensates by globing onto faux celebrities. If he didn’t have a blog he probably would have killed himself long ago.

When did this blog go all-gay, all the time?
The paths of gay and alt will soon diverge again, just like they did back in 85 when New Wave ended.

dear carles,
perez hilton is the grossest thing in the planet

Reply
perez is no alt. true.
but she is a rl blogger. u can tell shes tugs it to her own reflection. & that is what blogging means 2 me.
when she cums and it makes the shape of herself – she defines the authentic blogger lifestyle.
