I feel sad to be single and alone without knowing what girls <3 about men. Do they want money? Status? Looks? Do they want some1 to tell them that they are special? That they love them? That they want to be with them forever? That u want to do more than just 'fuck' them [via making love]? I feel jealous of this bro.
I just want to find out what it takes to be a charismatic bro, dedicated to his art and transcendent of society's rigid norms, like 'wearing clothes', 'being healthy' and 'covering up ur peen.' I sort of want to be free, and have some1 <3 me 4 me. I just want to be confident with who I am. I just want to chill, be myself, and not worry about anything. I need to grow up and stop taking my anti-anxiety medication. I think I can be free.
Should I go on the popular TV show "America's Biggest Loser"? s00 many inspirational stories. Wonder if they would help me start an electro band instead of 'losing weight.'
Just want to be a bro
'rocking out [via cock out]'
I am very, very confused. I feel like writing something 'funnie' about the way that this bro looks. I think that his haircut makes him look like he is an individual. I can't tell if he has a flat top, or if a mohawk, or if his hair intersects to create an x- and y- axis. Sort of wish I had more pictures so I could really see what his hair is all about.
Sometimes I wonder where people go to get their hair styled in a progressive manner. Do they have a friend who is in beauty school? Do they go to a generic hair cutting studio where some1 cuts ur hair for $5? Or do they go to a 'barber shop' where old black men sit around and talk about life, racial issues, sports, and Barry Obama?
Sort of want to spend more time in barber shops, learning about life, requesting zany haircuts. Still just trying to be an individual who forms authentic connections with people.
I am worried that I am 'losing interest' in creating a strong personal brand. Do u think it's just me, or is it some sort of generational backlash?
I mite start a website that makes 'snarky commentary' about 'hipsters' and the way that they look. Think I will call if 'fuckindumbasshipguy.blogspot.com' or possibly 'making_funof-those-coolios.tumblr.com.'

TrappedInSuburbiaBro has been named one of Barbara Walters' 10 Most Fascinating People of 2008. While other candidates like Barrack Obammy and Michael "Water Buffalo" Phelps are more famous than TrappedInSuburbia Bro, there are more tweens & teens on the planet who can relate to TrapedInSubBro. He represents an internal and external struggle 4 all moderately alternative ppl on our Earth.
Recently, TrappedBro created his own Crystal Castles Fan Club t-shirt, but in an effort to remain progressive, he let the world know that the t-shirt was 'fake.' The shirt is a think piece. What will HRO's Emerging Bro of the Year do next?

This picture is a picture that represents the power of branding. There is a common lifestyle brand called PUMA. One bro merges his personal brand with Puma by wearing their shoes. The other bro had a Puma logo tatted on the back of his neck. In order to strengthen your personal brand, you must be willing to take risks and make bold choices.
Should I get the Nike/AmAppy/HypeMachine/Sparks/PBR/Chili's logo tattooed on me?
Will 2009 be all about merging your personal brands with corporate lifestyle brands?
I wonder if there is a world record for 'Most People Wearing Kanye West Glasses in 1 Party Pic.' Plz be on the lookout for this Holy Grail of pictures, because I'm sure it involves 5+ alt bros and 5+ mainstreamer girls pretending to be alt for the night.
I also learned from a Bay Area Style Blog that these glasses are called SHUTTER SHADES. Should I stop calling them 'Kanye West Glasses'? Should I just call them 'Cum in the Eye Protectors'?
I really need to buy a pair soon for when I have to go to an 'Ironic 00s Era Party' in 10 years. I hope it is as fun as today's 80s parties. Hopefully mainstreamers will still get to go to American Apparel to find their wardrobe for throwback-themed parties in the coming decades.
Love yall!
Sometimes life can be hard. Sometimes we don't understand why we are here. Sometimes we can't overcome our differences with other people. While it might be beyond poetic to kill yourself at a nightclub, it's never worth it to give up on your dreams, even if a plastic bag happens to go well with your hoodie. There's no excuse to end your life, even if your girlfriend just dumped you and you feel like 'just another alt bro.'
Let's all say a little prayer that self-induced suffocation will be big in 2kNever. <3

Speaking of suicide, remember when this song captured the hearts of angsty teens throughout the world?
I wonder why more blogcentric bands don't make videos like that one.
A lot of different elements need to come together to get a perfect party pic. You need more than just a hot slut, a sexie pose, a high priced lens+flash, and a formidable background.
Here's a great 'behind the scenes' shot by Nicky Digital:
You have to search for the right angles. Sometimes you have to cut slits in the knees of your jeans. You have to be an art director, which means telling people that they can't have Bud Light long necks in the picture.
Sometimes you just have to pray that you'll run into a girl with a wardrobe valued over $40, provided by Forever 21 and Claire's.
I wonder when Party Photographers are going to unionize. Probably by 2010.
What makes u admire party photographers?
When will art schools start offering a minor in Nightlife Photography Studies?
