Yall!
I finally did it! I turned 21! I can finally 'find out what alcohol tastes like!' Excited. 2nite I'm getting 2gether with a group of my closest friends, and a few other people who have really boring lives' and only go out when some1 they know has a birthday. Hope I get some good gifts/meaningful giftcards.
Do yall have any friends who 'make it a big deal' when it is a birthday? Do u h8 it? Do u get people gifts, or do u think that ur true bros don't expect gifts from you? Don't know how 2 feel about birthdays. I really like the attention, and that my parents gift me money/cars/macbooks, but still... there's just something a little bit mainstream about 'celebrating a birthday.' Do u just want to 'go downtown' and 'overpay for drinks' at a place that u have to 'wear something nice' to, instead of the usual underage-friendly bar that u 'chill at'?
Not to get all philosophical, but 'time' as we know it is kinda a human construct. Things like 'days', 'weeks', 'months' and 'years' are just labels. If we were all cavemen, we would only really know night+day AND hot+cold AND various weather changes. We would have no way to track the exact day we were born. That's probs why the cavemen died when the dinosaurs got hit be a meteor/cholera.
Whenever u go out for some ass hole's birthday, don't u feel kind of like u are trapped in a photo opportunity like this:
It just kinda sux. I want my birthday to be meaningful. Like more than just dinner+drinks+friends who can't distinguish how special UR night is from every other night. Same stuff happens, except there is cake, or 21 shots, or pizza, or something like that. Maybe I should 'plan a trip' for my birthday. Or maybe I should drive to the tip of South America on a motorcycle. Just want something more.
Do yall think birthdays are like the SUPER BOWL of Girls Nights Out?

@Kelly,
The blogger behind this blogpiece is:
1) not as good as Carlos in writing.
2) somewhere between an altBro and altBAG
3) some1 who thinks he knows "too much" about music
4) but in reality he doesn't
5) some1 who wants to write for the pitchforkmedia. it is impossible because he lacks the authenticity and level of mainstream altness.
thx for reading this cmmnt.
<3 yall
@altCreep, love how you copy the way he writes.
@Kellybro,
thanx. i lol'd hard.
@Kelly,
I like We Listen For You and I liked the post they did on Hipster Runoff. Don't understand the hate.
december 8th. i'm expecting my card.
pi day_3/14. thx carles <3ss
happy bday!!
My birthday is in 16 days. I'll finally be legal. Cigarettes and porn, YES! I'm having a hottub party. Everyone should come.
@Jessicauthentic., if u already can't buy ciggies and pr0n u arnt doing 'being a minor' crrctly.
@cold legs, oh, I have my ways.
@Jessicauthentic., i <3 HRO readers
i <3 u
@Jessicauthentic., ditto
@Jessicauthentic., "oh, i have my ways"
ew?
lol @ the 1 frizzy haired white girl. even the azns have str8 blonde hair. she got out-round-eyed
happy b-day y'all
I thought everyone knew Carles was post-college. This is getting weird, Carl.
@Sara, ugh
@Sara, think outside the box, sara.
Those chicks look like they belong in a Thai brothel, not a birthday party...
I'm all for getting special treatment/pizza on your big day, but what are other times when it's OK to get pizza with your buds. What if you're on a softball team road trip and staying at a crappie hotel w/ hot tub. Is it OK to have pizza then, and if so, what are the most convenient options. Also what about "game night"
h8 that chix hair. sooo0 uggggg
my 21st is on sunday!!!!! me and all my alt friends are having a meaningful house party. waaaay more authentic than going out to bars!
@anonymous,
This is a check list for a meaningful house party. Ask yourself.
Is Daft Punk playing at my house?
Will the alpha-altbros bring their lappies, interfaces, and keyboards?
Will we have at least 4 altbro djs/artists/drunks behind the lappies?
Ironic PBR party pounders, (insert altbro's name such as Murdoc)'s moon shine, Jasmine's jungle juice, critter wines, micro-brews, or assorted pharms?
R my parents going to get high with us?
How will I know what bro peed in the fridge?
Mustaches or masks?
If mustaches, noxious rubber cement and faux fur or noxious king size permanent markers?
If masks, creepy dead prez or AnCo masks?
How naked should we get?
Pj party house?
Dance off pants off?
It's rude not to be nude?
Body painting?
Should there we live painting?
Smudging or Tibetan prayer flags?
Arts and crafts or charades?
How will the all the alts get home?
Taxi, train, or fixie?
When u open the door to ur parents room and ur bf is naked cheating on u with a keutr fortunate AZN, should u listen to "Until We Bleed" by Lykke Li or "Young Folks" or "You Can Do Better Than Me" by Death Cab for Cutie?
The SSRI helps ur breakup depression but u have to ask urself, "plastic hypemachine mixtape flash drives, paper planes, or vintage AnCo tees?" Every meaningful house party needs an invitation!!
This is a check list for a meaningful house party.
@SilverTell,

happy birthday. :3
Birfdays are incredibly alt, like Xmas. Remember when carolbros were forbidden from Sandy Claws? Happy 21st, lil kidbro.
Mine is today. Happy birthday to us yall.
@yellowpaiges, Nothing says "happy barfday" like another pathetically seductive dopenose crawling around on the minimal floor of the condo she picked out of Wallpaper* with daddy's money.
@SilverTell,
yeah right daddy wouldn't even purchase me a mac lappy for community college.We all know he kicked me out ages ago when I went through my rebelious phase...The hippest trendiest most non-corporate coffee shop in the inner party of my city pays for my minimal HARDWOOD floor and my wooden roman shades.
You're right carles. Your readers are getting younger. Alienate them better. I know u can do it.
@JohnnyPneumonic, it's about maturity, not age.
this site should be renamed SuburbanTeenRunoff ever since Carles has gone mainstream with his memesssss
Funny you mention South America.
Went there for my birthday, actually. Just got back 2 nights ago.
Amazon > Girls Night Out
I agree with 90% of this post, y'all
h8 'going out/ downtown' with a group of aZns. My ex GF was AzN (is she still aZn now that we're no longer together?) and those people take entirely too many pics. U can't enjoy a sparks or 'coke off ur iphone' without some wannabe Korean-Anne Leibowitz snapping away on her new Sony cam, with 8 megapixels or whatever.
Someone is always turning 21 nowadays it seems. h8 that we 'get older'. h8 Azns. h8 crls. <3 crls
Everyone just expects to much out of their birthdays. I usually get so let down and end up leaving early and getting drunk for the next few days haha ;)
hai crls it's gonna b mah 21st bday in 11 days yall
Growing up 2 fast, yall

Yall how can Carlos be 21 and still in highschool?
I have a friend who is post-J-Hova and I'm kinda jealous that his birthdays are soO meaningful because he never had a pre-21 Bday. It makes me knida sad that his parties mean soo much and mine are just a jaded celebration of what I feel my birthday should mean to 'me'.
....But I'm not a big fat hater tho'....I did my best to make sure he has a meaningful time/make up for years of oppression [via zany religious beliefs]
This year I'm gonna make sure my party is extra meaningful and plan, decorate.... probs make out with some f-buddies of mine, dance a lil, and say 'inappropriate' things once I 'get my buzz on'.
But yeah, sorry for hijacking yer comments crls...but it's all about me in the place to be this year.
So yeah, birthdays CAN be the superbowl of GNO if you make it that way.
<3 U crls
'F' 'Bs' get $$$
