Do you ever walk down the street or go into a public place and see someone trying to be hip? You just have to wonder, what is that person's deal.... You can tell when you have encountered one of these outdated people when you see these signs:
1. that person whips out a motorola razr.
2. the person is wearing good clothes, just not popular clothes. Ecko was the coolest shit back in 2004. LRG is the shit now. I laughed when I saw this chinaman decked out in ecko. he thought that he was sooo cool!!
3. the person walks like a ghetto black person and/or wears a hood even when it's not cold or rainy. Those people are just plain sad copycats that want to fit in because they dont know how to think for themselves.
our society as become a race, a race which nobody can win. wearing popular clothes and having popular things are what people use to identify your social status. it's stupid, but it's true. if you have a razr in 2008, you're just late to the game. if you're a timid little asian body wearing a hood for no apparent reason, it shows that you are not only naive but easily influenced by stupid shit. I blame the media!! fitting in with others isn't important anymore. i have never strived to impress anyone. i got an annoying nickname in elementary school. and that nickname is "RICH". i had so many shoes back in the day, it was unreal. my friends would come over to my house like it was a shoe store. they would stand in my garage and offer money for my shoes. then i turned tech geek. i would get a new phone every few months and switch back and forth between handsets when i felt like it. somehow, having more than 1 cell phone is sort of standard now. people carry a phone strictly for messaging and one for calls and digital media.
the point is, in 2008, i don't see people making fun of others about material possessions. i see people making fun of others for other purposes, like weight. but it is sort of funny seeing people using outdated stuff and thinking that they are the hottest shit on the block.
