My personal brand is ‘being a think piece.’

Photo by Easy Fashion


I am not your standard bro.
I see the world with a different pair of glasses, which are not ‘rose coloured.’
I mix elements of Christianity and the Matrix in2 my personal brand.
I do not believe in concepts like ‘time’, ’space’, and ‘love.’
I do not find pleasure in any sensory activities.
I try to have ‘no aesthetic’ but unfortunately people try to call me ‘fashion forward.’
I walk down the street and people stare at me. They wonder ‘what is up with that bro.’ They would never be able to understand what is up with me.

“I” do not “exist.” I am just sort of here to ‘challenge’ people and their ‘realities.’ I make you uncomfortable because I do not exist for the same reason you exist. I am a conceptual bro. I want to make u ‘think’ about ‘the big picture.’ Want to make u ask ‘why?

I want to be noticed. I do not want to be noticed.

This is me.
These are my rings (collected while my family vacationed in Arizona and New Mexico).
This is my cross. This is my faith.
This is me underneath my dark hood.

I am sort of like a ‘fameball celeb’ who makes u wonder WHY/HOW ppl get famous.
I am a think piece.
I am more than just a human who is ‘alive.’
I exist for a reason that extends beyond ‘general humanity.’

    @ColanderBolander, yes very useful to help explain what you see happening in 2k9. not that it should be treated w/ a pill or therapy or something, maybe at least acknowledged to a person that may show symptoms beyond the norm. or maybe just take photos of them and post them on the interwebs with offensive captions

    Sometimes I h8 myself so much. Wish I did not believe in the concepts of time / love / space. Wish I existed for a reason beyond “general humanity”

    h8 how plain i am. h8 i believe in concepts like “alive” “space” “time” “emotion”. h8 how i try to be “understandable” H8 EVERYTHING ABOUT ME.

    wish i was a cool bro, wish i was a bro who had moved beyond merely “being” and was a “conceptual piece of art” that existed across all times/spectrum/spatial locations. Oh well, guess i listen to some joustease y’all

    he looks tall.

    *wonder if he is really good at basketball*

    mmm, he probably has no ‘hustle’ but since he is tall can just block pretty good.

    *wonder if he is sweet @ volleyball*

    @riiiiot, Come on – ever heard of a typo? Seriously! I bet you own a pair of Converse in every color, drive a Volkswagen, wear your girlfriend’s jeans, only eat organics and fart green puffs of SMUG.

    I GUARANTEE you, not everyone on here gets it. Maybe you do but there are lots of “alts” out there attempting to be non-conformists by completely conforming to the quintessential “alt” dude persona.

    That’s why I’m such a huge fan of this blog and love to read the dumb comments people write, such as how they think they have Asperger syndrome because they are “creative” and HAVE to wear retro-coke bottle glasses.
