FUCK SUBURBIA -- I HAVE BROKEN FREE

PHOTO VIA LOOKBOOK


h8 being trapped.
h8 everything about suburbia
h8 my parents
h8 the red bricks on my house
& every other house in my neighborhood.

Today I watched an MGMT music video
and listened to Animal Collective
and also listend 2 Passhy Pit
then cut up my favourite Am Appy shirt
and put some paint on my face

Went outside
all of my neighbors looked at me like I was from another planet
even though they usually give me that look
it made me happie
that I was challenging social norms
and saying 'eff yall' 2 them.

I was the most free spirited person
within a 100 mile radius
My mom and dad looked out the window
and looked disappointed

If only they knew
what I wanted 2 do
and the ideas inside of me
which can be converted to art
and be sold 4 a great deal of money

If only they knew
that I am not going to work for an insurance company
in a business park
in a yucky part of town in some cheesy city.

I am trapped in suburbia
1 day
I will get out of this hell hole.
1 day...

I am the next Marc Jacobs/ Jermbro Scott / winner from Projjers Runway.
What's ur anti-suburbia [via anti-drug]?

fortune's picture

do you guys ever wonder...

you know how you're lightyears more self-aware now than you were at 19?

can you imagine how self-aware you'll be in 5 more years?

can you imagine how many levels of irony n stuff you'll get then?

it kinda makes life worth it. just to see how much you'll develop. or does self-awareness stop at a certain age due to front cortex being fully developed past a certain point forever? do you think that we'd all be less self-aware if we never tried weed? do you think we'd be more self-aware if we never tried weed?

do you ever wonder if this is how the mind of your relatives progressed also? maybe your grandpa didn't have AnCo and stuff, but do you think he listened to AM stations for the lulz? at what age do you think he became self-aware? how self-aware do you think he got before brain degenerative diseases [:(] Will you suffer the same fate? or will we have awesome vaccines against that when we get that old and will continue the quest until 100? that'd be so awesome... all the stuff we'll know and get. think about all the bands we'll know and the post-post-post eras we'll get to see.

passhy pit album is growing on me and I'm just asking questions, y'all

still h8 the kid choir tho

anony's picture

@fortune, So I realize it's rhetorical but I'll bite. It's suspected that the brain continues to develop through age 25 (which has a great impact on much of society) however it's also suspected that not using your brain spurs cognitive decline.

THC is a powerful antioxidant which is likely quite good for the brain as long as your not stoned all the time. Few stoners develop neuro degenerative diseases. Of course THC has it's own "side effects" during use.

I'm far more self aware than I wish to be now to the point of making me insane via the inability to mask constant absurdity. At what point does one cut off their own ear?

Maybe at some point I will stop giving a shit in order to selfishly be "happy" in which case it becomes necessary to actively deceive your own mind. But perhaps this is necessary for "good" mental health.

I think my computer has a better chance of becoming self aware than most humans so I really don't spend much time thinking about my ancestors. Honestly how many of your own family members are the sharpest tools in the shed? It's more likely that they are just tools.

chong's picture

@fortune,

my grampy got the shakes/parkersons and the meds give him hallucingenics. guess im lookin forward to that someday

daffy's picture

@fortune, there is a point where self-awareness becomes degenerative and starts to inhibit yr behavior... kinda wish i was ignorant right now.

jazzy jeff's picture

fuck this shit blog.
i seriously can not believe for a second that this guy thinks he is writing something important.

it has to be a joke. IT FUCKING HAS TO BE. someone tell me this is a big fucking ironic wanky joke cos if it's not i will honestly spew.

french guy's picture

@jazzy jeff, i think it's part sarcastic, part not that much.

i don't know, but something less meta meta is quite nice when you read streetcarnage on a daily basis.

:)

animal custar's picture

@french guy,

I actually am quite convinced this blog is an ongoing experimental novel-meets-blog "coming of age" story that is mostly based on the author's life, but 'set in the present age'.

Just how "John Titor" entranced an entire sci-fi community, "Carles" similarly has the 'self-aware/finding our identity' crowd unable to blur the lines between fact/fiction, his life/our lives, and past/present/future.

jazzy jeff's picture

@animal custar, are you fucking kidding me. carles is about as self aware as a fucking dead rat. More importantly he is not aware of the world around him. I would liken his comments and 'story' telling ability to that of a 4 yr old chimpanzee who had been trained to push buttons which spat out a random word like 'society' or 'feelings', or else receive an electrical shock.

the saddest part is that he thinks he is "challenging social norms" by being stupid, while in fact he is conforming oh so well.

his parents need to drag him inside and lock him in a hole where he is tied down and people take turns shitting on his face until he dies suffocating on a huge turd.

unhappybro's picture

@jazzy jeff,
Maybe this isn't the right blog for you.
How disappointing.
Come back soon : )

anony's picture

@unhappybro, Indeed you have to read between the lines. carles may be a lot things but stupid and shallow he is not.

generik witty cmmnt's picture

@jazzy jeff,
'carles is about as self aware as a fucking dead rat'

lolled all over my keyboard.

White Blipster's picture

@jazzy jeff, Luv it when mnstrmrs cum here and cnt figure out whether this is a joke or not - makes me feel like 'i am part of some thing'

<3 U jazzy jeff / Hackster bro

french guy's picture

@White Blipster,

i think this mainstreamer/alt debate is less significant once you turn 25 (or even 15!)

and most alt are far less fun than many "normies".

don't try too hard.

anony's picture

@french guy, Depends on your idea of fun. I can tell you I'd rather have a few bottles of good wine with and it's not the mainstreamers.

CaresAboutBros's picture

@jazzy jeff,

no joke bro, just sum ppl tryin to b relevant & 'culturally aware'. u sound like a high school bro, mayb u should chill and 'read some posts' 4 awhile. just want ppl to 'get' carles and HRO, cuz he rlly 'gets it'.

french guy's picture

this guy was run over by a rainbow poney. not homo at all, really.

thrashingtiger's picture

my stupid haircut.

fact alert's picture

my philosophy major actually HELPED to strengthen my faith in god yall

anony's picture

@fact alert, I'm at the point where hate both atheists (even through this is where I traditionally identify) and Christian fundamentalists mostly because of the conintations that they both invoke from each other. There is little difference between liberal Christians and atheists and yet we seem to enjoy erecting walls. It's the self righteous who are to be disdained.

anonym's picture

@anony,

"Atheists will burn in hell! Adhere to God's word!"

"Yeah, well Christians are DUMB! The Bible is so ILLOGICAL!"

I'm with ya bro. Why can't everyone STFU and live their lives the way they want to.

Clausewitz's picture

@anony, i'm starting 2 think that middle-aged bourgeoise Catholixxx+mainlineProtestantbros r the only 'ppl who actually believe in shit' that r ent annoying. hopefully soon every1 will move to first ring suburbs and wear suits 2 work.

lozenge's picture

insanlie jelous of teh skinnieness here :(

hey anony anony's picture

my anti-suburbia is free culture.

just saw a meaningful documentary screening on the free culture movement
in a relevant brooklyn bodega
in south williamsburg
worried that south wmsbrg might not be relevant (via not being bushwick {subvia not being bed-stuy})

i will use this film's lessons
to remix my own life
i will cre8 a new personal space 2 replace my suburban space (via pottery barn tweens catalog)
it will be myspace
it will not be 'tied to the news corp brand'

want something more
want something more

eedit's picture

Oh! A new chapter in my favorite blogcharacter's life begins.

MGMGrandDetroit's picture

for me too, really a good post.

NDN(Indian)ALT's picture

Bleh, get out of suburbs, yet you're still stuck with typical N. American cities. Perhaps maybe w/ the exception of New York City & San Fran. (even their authenticity are overrated / questionable compared to counterparts in Europe), you're trapped in cheesy old-money, mainstream, declining cities in the likes of Columbus, Ohio; Dallas Texas; Charlotte, NC; Indianapolis, IN; Jacksonville, FL; etc. Feel sorry for ya'll Americans...

Jules's picture

great post carles

MrsOfficer's picture

thank god trapped in suburbia bro is doing ok...so glad he didn't fall into the lure of the grifter...stay strong, my son....you'll be home soon.

fixi-friends's picture

i have been a semi-frequent reader of HRO and follow it mainly because it makes me laugh and i find it amusing at times. whether or not this blog is relevant, accurate, truthful, or trying to be serious it does not matter its just a BLOG. people like jazzy jeff and people who h8 on blogs and who post daily about how gay they think they are just need to remember that u have a CHOICE not to read a blog if you dont like it. there is no sence in going out of your way to post and say how much you h8 the blggr and what he says all the time just becuse he says that u may not be the most alt bro around cause you listen to mnstrm rap and spend all of your parents money at mnstrm stores. just take the h8 somewhere else and grow some sence of humor or start posting on emo blogs so you can cry about all your problems.

fresh prince's picture

you all suck. This is the worst 'satire' i have ever seen.
