Yall. Saw some bro wearing a VHS tape around his neck, kinda like a necklace. I remember when bros used 2 wear record hats, other alts wore cassette tape necklaces, and some other bro wore a postcard necklace. I wonder what movie he has around his neck. Probs something like The Goonies or Getting Even With Dad or something zany like Pete & Pete Bros. Would be pretty authentic if he had something like ‘a snuff film’ around his neck, or maybe some sort of vulnerable childhood film that u could show 2 people that ur in a relationship with 2 make them ‘feel closer’ 2 u.

Need 2 convert more dated technology into ‘fashionable items.’ Might start wearing a USB drive around my neck, like I work in the IT industry.

Feel weird when people ‘watch movies’ and ‘love them.’ Sort of feel sad when I see bins of DVDs for $2 each, especially when I used to think that ‘the movie experience was valuable.’ Wonder where the magic of the movies went? Wonder what the carbon footprint of ‘the movie industry’ is. Probably almost as bad as driving a car or something.

I might just paint a mural of every single alt/authentic/quirky-core movie character who has ever been in some sort of relevant indie film / ‘cult classic’ / dark comedy.

Who would yall put on ur ‘dream mural’ of every relevant character?
Would all of the Tenenbaums fit on ur mural?
Would the ‘fucking stupid Mexi’ from Napoleon Dynamite ‘make the cut’?
Would any African Americans be on ur mural?
Should I get a tattoo that says ‘CriterionCollecBro’?
Are yall excited about Summer Movies? [via Will Smith/Johnathan Depp / Nick Cage]

Indoor soccer shoes are for bros with a lifestyle that sees them float in between multiple contexts: mainstream and alt. The indoor soccer shoe gives them versatility in function and image.
Never trust a bro over the age of 20 who still wears indoor soccer shoes. He is not sure who he wants to be. Or he has a membership at one of the world’s only remaining indoor soccer facilities.

Gimmicks that might big in 2k10

Ying Yang choker necklaces

Necklaces that prove you recently ‘went to the beach’ on a family vacation and ‘got to take a friend’

Old brands before ‘alt’ became ‘a lil more self-aware’ (remember when alternative clothing only came in black, white & red ? ///// this is why mallrat-based alts are usually in only these colours)

Looking like Brandon Boyd

I think we are headed back 2 more simplistic free-spiritedness. Kind of like the zeitgeist of a 12 year old bro who ‘just discovered what marijuana tastez like’ and is about to ’see his GPA slip @ high school’, and will enjoy becoming a justified ‘chilled out bro in the world’ who transcends his parents’ rules.

Still trying 2 find myself in 2k9…. I guess some things never change, yall.
