Today kids...we're going to talk about anti-conformity, and just how much of a load of bullshit it really is. Don't get me wrong. Not everything they do is stupid and pointless. There's also a difference between people that believe in a cause, and anti-conformists. There's a difference between hippies and anti-conformists. Both are okay. Anti-conformists? No.
Let me begin by stating that yes, I'm being a bit hypocritical by typing this entry. I mean, I'm bitching about people bitching. Yes, that's hypocritical. But I have a reason.
So, anti-conformist? Can anyone tell me what they actually stand for?
That's right! Nothing! They are solely there to argue with most of society. While some of what they do is perfectly reasonable and just...and progressive...most of it just makes a "socialite" as these people call the rest of "us" shake their head in a negative "What the hell are they doing now!?" manner. I find these people to be the most hypocritical sons of bitches, and bitches, that exist in society.
Nine times out of ten, they abhor something for the sole reason that someone else likes it. How does that make you happy? Who wakes up in the morning with the thought, "How am I going to be happy today? I know! I'll find something my friends like and completely put them down for it!"
I don't get it.
These are the people that put you down for listening to music that YOU like because...it's mainstream. Are you kidding me!? I don't care who the artist is, or whether or not it's mainstream. If I like it, I'll listen to it.
They are also the first to judge despite them constantly criticizing you for your judgment issues. "Why the hell would you judge people? Fag." And...hypocrite.
They complain and complain about how they are losing friends, without being smart enough to open their eyes to the fact that they are total jackasses to the people that they at one point said they cared about...but after all, they may have just been stuck with the wrong group.
How the hell do you get stuck with the wrong group? You choose who you spend your time with, so you getting stuck with the "wrong group" is nobody's fault but your own.
Anti-conformists are the people that you see annoying cops...because they can.
"Fuck authority!"
"Why?"
"Because we can!"
It makes no sense. I understand that people don't need to put up with half the shit that they put up with. They also don't need to put up with half the shit that's forced on them by these anti-conformists. Just because society said something, it sucks.
The worst part is, as these people are yelling at you not to judge them as you walk by, they are judging you. As you walk by with your cappuccino from Starbucks that you bought because, oh my god, it tastes good, in your Guess jeans that you bought because you liked the style, to them you are a good for nothing rich bitch socialite that's every breath is a robbery of their precious air. It never crosses their mind that maybe you want to shop at Abercrombie & Fitch, and maybe you wanted to buy Gucci shades because you like their style...and this is all because they can get the same satisfaction out of something else.
Now, don't get me wrong. I don't disagree with everything they stand or don't stand for. They make some pretty good points. It annoys me to no end the fact that while you stay out of their way and let them do their thing, they put you down for doing what makes you happy.
IT DOES NOT AFFECT THEM AT ALL. Yet they feel the need to put you down.
My thing is, don't interfere with me. I'll stay out of your way. If I don't say anything to you about how your hippie shirt sucks or how stupid I think your way of creating happiness by putting someone else down is, you better keep your anti-conformist, piece of shit mouth shut while I go about my own life, doing what makes me happy, while staying out of yours.
