HIPSTER RUNOFF

Took this picture in my parents' private jet. I am considering taking it down from facebook before I go to college so that I seem like a 'normal kid.'

I have always wanted a normal upbringing, where I would have a healthy mix of 'earning success', along with some lil boosts along the way of having 'nice shit handed to me.' Unfortunately, as I have grown older, I have had to rely on the connections of my parents along with their financial support more than I would have liked to. It definitely changes the way that authentic people look at me. Most people can't buy whatever they want and can't do whatever they want [via financial constraints].

They think that I live in some sort of dream world, and that I'm not appreciative for what has been given to me, but I am actually very appreciative and very humble. I have problems that they can't even relate to. I am rlly worried that when my parents die, I won't be able to stay as rich as I am now. I feel like there is something inside of me that wants to make a lot of money so that I can be 'double rich' and just live in Manhattan or something. It would also be cool to marry another rich person, then we could pool our incomes and give money to 'the arts'/'innercity schools.'

It's hard dealing with social perception and class issues. I wish people could realize that rich ppl are 'real people' too, and that we want authentic human connections as much as other ppl. There's more to people than 'how much money they make.' Wish people could see all the colours of the rainbow, instead of just 'green' [via metaphor about money].

R u 'rich'?
do u h8 'rich alts' who buy 'designer shit'?
Would u trade ur 'normal childhood' for a $100K boost in ur parents' income?
Did ur parents make/lose a lot of money during ur childhood?
R u afraid to fly in a private jet because of the increased risk of crash?

do u think that 'money' is 'bullshit' or 'what makes the world go round'?
Is it hard to form authentic connections with alternative ppl who have had 'everything handed 2 them'?
Is there such thing as an 'authentic upbringing'?
r u a 'private jet alt'?

This is a post about how I h8 lil kids who have 2 much personality. Lil Douchebag Kids usually have wealthy parents. There is a father who makes a lot of money, and a mom who 'loves their kid to death.' This means they get to eat an unhealthy breakfast. Typically, male lil dbag kids have long hair and a 'California skater aesthetic.' These kids usually don't do well in school and (pretend to) have learning disabilities. However, these 'learning disabilities' are usually justified as 'having an active personality.' Teachers expect less from lil dbag kids because they know they will never have to worry about anything in life.

My son has an active personality. I let him grow his hair out, because he is different. He is beyond his years.

I just want my daughter 2 have 0 worries. I only want her 2 express herself + start dating at age 7. She will go through an alternative phase, but I am confident that she will end up mainstream by age 19.

I wish I could go back in time and convince my parents to 'let me show the world who I was' at a young age. I want to go back in time so that I could tell my parents about online boutiques for kidz so that I could have a more unique personal brand as a kid.

I want to be a lilBagBro. I don't want to be 'good at school.' I want to be good at being funny/expressive/being 'a breath of fresh air.'

I want to let people know that I might be from California, and that I might be a participant in Xtreme Sports. People need to know that I have an xtreme personality. I want to dress and smell like I am going to my first high school dance every day of the week. I want to merge 'cool' and 'post-casual' fashion. I want hair product.

I want 2 be a lil girl. I want to connect with my depressed mother [via shopping therapy]. I want to wear prints that single, saucy 32 year old women wear on 'girls nite out's + to their job as a receptionist.

"We have trouble concentrating in class. We do impressions of popular movies/television shows. Our parents don't let us drink soda/let us drink a lot of soda. We are 'hyperactive' and have a low reading level."

'We have a glorified hobby which our parents have branded us as 'being good at.' We pursue this hobby our whole lives', but end up not being very gifted at all. Our whole world will then fall apart, and we will attend college for 2 semesters at a local school. We will drop out and live in an apartment complex within 5 miles of our parents' house. We will drink cheep beer and post myspace photos. We will shop at the mall. We will be independent.'
-lil dbag kidz in the future

Should we do more to ban 'personality' in public elementary schools?
Are 'kidz with 2 much personality' growing up with an unhealthy perception of 'the world' + 'his or her own place in the world'?
Is adolescence a false extension of childhood?
Should I build a time machine to see how my life would have worked out if I had a stronger personal brand when I popped out of my mother's womb?

I think I have commented on how CSS look and sound like dirty, kute street kidz. However, Electrorash just posted this Midnight Juggies remix of 'Left Behind', and I think that CSS sounds cleaner & more American (less foreign) than ever.

Hopefully they can crossover x 10000 with their clean, approachable sound.

Does any one know CSS's backstory? Are they from the Brazilian favelas (AKA Shanty Towns) that inspired the movie "CITY OF GOD"? Remember when bros and altbros united around "City of God" because it had kids with guns/violence, and was rlly cool & edgy in a Grand Theft Auto-y kind of way?

Or are they rich kids who are living the alt dream, kind of like The Strokes? Do u know any rich kids whose parents buy them studio time for their crappy band?
