I am a hipster b/c I am hip. So... FUCK OFF.


the hipster kit


follow up to my comic:
**It also helps to be sickly thin to the near point of emaciation**

THE ACT
(1.) Know all the coolest hangouts.
(2.) Know the most popular 5 crappy indie bands and blabber about them incessantly.
(3.) Go to said cool hangouts, snort a line in the bathroom, purchase a $2 lonestar, and blabber incessantly about said crappy bands and the philosophical ideas of Ayn Rand.
(4.) To avoid answering "I'm a 24 year old pizza boy" when asked what you do you can shout "Whoa, my favorite Editors song!" and run to the center of the dancing scenester sluts and start flailing your arms and dry humping the drunkest looking one. She'll probably make out with you. Also, anyone you may meet and converse with for longer than 5 minutes would probably appreciate this move in order to avoid punching you for annoying the crap out of them.

**WARNING**
Being a neat and cool hipster still won't prevent you from being lured into hipster traps or getting your annoying ass punched by a redneck....

Nuto Manicular. First show will be late August. Band member auditions will begin in a couple weeks.


Current mood:creative
[noot-oh [muh-nik-yuh-ler], nyoot-oh [muh-nik-yuh-ler]]
1.of recent origin, production, purchase, etc.; having but lately come or been brought into being: a new book.

2.any of several brilliantly colored salamanders of the family Salamandridae, esp. those of the genera Triturus and Notophthalmus, of North America, Europe, and northern Asia.
3.(used as an expression of surprise, pain, disapprobation, etc.)
4.having only one eye.
I picked this name out circa 2003 for my prescient future band for which I will play keyboard. I took lessons for 8 years from the sweetest lil' lady Isabell Ammons. She farted incessantly, but just pretended nothing happened. It was so difficult stifling laughter whilst playing Minuet in G. 
Our first hit will be a song I wrote entitled "Mitochondria".... in Japan.
Addendum: I may want to play drums...! I got pulled on stage to play drums for some band called "Gay Duo", I believe at Creekside sometime in early August and in my opiniom... I made them way better!!! And not just b/c I am hot. :-)

Love / Hate Poems for Idiots & One Hot Chic


Dear Olive Garden Online Stalker Guy [for aforementioned, age 24]

we met through a friend
at a party's how it began
and from thereafter it never ends...
you perused her top friends
to find my MySpace page
then again MyStalked my profile
found my screenname for AIM
then with the incessant texts
where you verbally accosted me about my privates
and my stance on anal sex.
"Look I don't even know you...
this is inappropriate and so un-venerate.
Please stop im'ing me, you fucking degenerate."
But alas even blocking... could not stop this pest.
Months go by and out of no where I get this
"I saw you at my work..
I was wearing a little vest"
"Who the fuck is this?"
"The online stalker degenerate."
"You've gotta be fucking kidding me...
what do you not understand...
about fuck off and die...
and never message me again!"
My love of breadsticks w/ alfredo
is why I keep going...
and minestrone soup
salad's goddam slamming.
But you olive garden stalker degenerate,
please get defenestrated.
I know you'll read this
b/c you're a socially inept dolt
w/out a scintilla of friends
B/C YOU SUCK!
The End.

How I miss thee, Rhi! [for my lesbo lover, age 24]

Rhianna is the hottest chic
a gorgeous smile and to-die-for tits
she's been swept away to a far away place
New Braunfels give her back,
for I miss her beautiful face!
Just to see her now I'd probably pay 8 million pesos
that's probably like 8 bucks
but damn I miss those besos...
My life sans Rhianna is pretty effin' lame.
Until she returns good times just won't be the same!!!

Forward [for Count Chocula, age 24]

yesterday, i hated life
day to day, so much strife
i took it in stride
or, for the most part i tried
you resurface soon after you fade
and wreck me in the worst possible way
i take it in stride
well, at least i try
trying is better than wanting to die
i want to keep going
so that you will again fade away
go into the abyss
your abominable abuse with a loaded fist
i move forward
a new factor... a new phase
a realistic rage?
no, the questions of tomorrow override yesterday's
i move forward.

Cessation [for the troglodyte of schadenfreude, age 25]

Style those fantasies
with criticizing grins.
I'm locked up with an open heart
unwilling to give in.
Pull it tight by the harness
and fuck me again.
Mentally, you screw me...
kick me twice in the shin.
Shutter the atrocities:
it's filth underneath your skin.
Wash it away?
You can't,
it goes down to the bone.
It flows in tiny platelets.
Sit on your illusive throne.
Who you are now,
is not who you were then.
---
The rambunctious freedoms...
of being lonely again.

daft punk - something about us

It might not be the right time
I might not be the right one
But there's something about us I want to say
Cause there's something between us anyway

I might not be the right one
It might not be the right time
But there's something about us I've got to do
Some kind of secret I will share with you

I need you more than anything in my life
I want you more than anything in my life
I'll miss you more than anyone in my life
I love you more than anyone in my life

Romance is STUPID, a poem by a sentient being [still enamored]... my amorous endeavor.


I love romance. 
I am a romantic. 
I want romance. 
I want a romantic.
Why is it that...
every man I love...
it turns south?
Your bellicose belt
so it seems...
I sleep to dream...
but of good things
then it comes:
pernicious slumber.
Better days do not haunt me...
as Chavez did sing.
So, it is spoken
and often I sing...
you brought your offer to the table...
but why didn't you bring:
stability?
longevity?
respect?
your words to keep?
you histrionic man!
preternatural man...
errant man...
dissimulative man!
I love you.
heed this:
I limn what you have left me
through hortatory means...
I am vapidly supine.
Be that which you never explicate
so that you may apprise me of your pain.
Mental anguish shall not reign...
Away with emotive malaise.
I came here just to love you...
why did you turn me away?
This thing we had...
so veritable.
You know,
I knew.
My contrite malversation...
a mess from my melange with you.
My life's conflagration
...love / hate intermittenly strewn...
could be assuaged
by only you.
Mimetic valetudinarians...
gossipy prattle ensues.
*Insert some timeless adage*
Ultimately, you'll see the truth.
Here, I unveil this late night's cerebration
so that I may explicate to you...
everything I've put on the table
[for your eyes only]
remains true.
This is my billet-doux to you.

me February 2001 {of sorts}

*Some timeless adage [inserted]*:
"Love seeketh not Itself to please,
"Nor for itself hath any care,
"But for another gives its ease,
"And builds a Heaven in Hell's despair."
So sang little Clod of Clay
Trodden with the cattle's feet
But a Pebble of the brook
Warbled out these metres meet:
"Love seeketh only Self to please,
"To bind another to Its delight,
"Joys in another's loss of ease,
"And builds a Hell in Heaven's despite."
William Blake (1757-1827)

My Interview w/ an {awesome} Adolescent



Interview with an Adolescent


On June 23, 2009, I interviewed Heaven *****, a soon-to-be Junior at Bastrop High School (BHS), about her high school experience thus far. I chose to interview Heaven because I have known her since she was about 4 years old as she was my neighbor and younger sister to my brothers’ best friend growing up. She has grown into a lovely young woman and attends the same high school that I did, and grew up in the same school district, albeit it has changed drastically since my time.

Prior to attending Bastrop High School, Heaven went to Red Rock Elementary, Cedar Creek Elementary, Cedar Creek Intermediate, and Cedar Creek Middle School. These are all integral parts of the collective conglomerate Bastrop Independent School District, that can be characterized by incessant growth due to unyielding urban sprawl.

Heaven lives with her mom and is cared for by two adults. Her favorite element of going to school is getting to see her friends. She feels that one of her classmates’ shared attributes is their openness to make new friends. Her friends make her feel comfortable because they all get along effortlessly and they do not waste their time judging others. As far as her genuine “dislikes” about her classmates are concerned, she would have to say that some tend to be very disrespectful toward the teachers. She is bothered by such flagrant disrespect and later said she wished that students and teachers, alike, would be more respectful of the school and others around them.

For the most part, Heaven enjoys going to school, but she wishes that there was open campus for lunch and that passing periods would be extended. I remember wishing the same thing when I was attending BHS. Heaven really likes that a lot of her teachers listen to what she has to say and she subsequently feels that they really cared about her (Heaven, they probably do ). However, she had one teacher that made the students feel as if they would fail in the real world if they did not do well in his class. So far, her favorite subject has been art because the teacher made class fun. If this interview had not been hastily conducted through the use of Gmail as a trusty liaison, I would’ve inquired as to whether or not she was referring to that crazy old Ms. Green, who in my opinion could’ve been easily confused with an inebriated derelict. Her least favorite class was biology because she found the subject matter difficult and the lectures subpar. I assume she did not have Coach Spalding (a super hot Bolivian that was married to this harridan lunch monitor) or Mr. Wardell (my high school B.F.F.’s father), who were both incredible biology teachers.

Heaven has received quality guidance and advice from her teachers, but specifically mentioned she has not from the counselors. In my experience, BHS counselors were just there taking up space and were about as useful as a fake houseplant. Upon graduation she wants to go to college at Texas State and major in English so that she can become a writer or a magazine columnist.

Interviewing Heaven made me feel somewhat nostalgic about high school, which is rare because I personally did not have the best overall experience there. I did graduate in the top 10 percentile with a 99.9% grade point average and a total of 12 dual credit hours from Austin Community College. I was published in one edition of Who’s Who Among American High School Students and later recognized in the town’s newspaper for Recycler of the Month for my extensive environmental efforts. However, I struggled tremendously with what I later found is Bipolar Disorder which I would self-assuage with copious amounts of marijuana, which I was expelled for the possession of in my sophomore year. It was a time of self-exploration for me and I experimented heavily with drugs and alcohol to the point of excess and was quite careless with my life. I made life really hard for my family. There were a few periods of time where I abstained from the drugs and life sans marijuana proved to be quite tumultuous. I was incredibly irascible and found myself with 20-something referrals and office visits in a matter of less than three months because I started paying attention to the blatant hypocrisy I was immersed in and I never ceased to bite my tongue. I was opinionated and audaciously brazen. This was entirely unacceptable in the backwoods, provincial, luddite town of Bastrop, Texas.

In this interview, I learned that Heaven is a bright young lady with a great future ahead of her. Her take on high school is refreshing and I am floored by her maturity. Her stable, refined attitude is quite laudable. It is obvious to me that she applies herself in school and has a clear focus on the future for which she will utilize to set out her goals and work adamantly toward achieving them. I am going to let Heaven know that I am available as a mentor and friend in her educational endeavors and that I will be willing to assist her in any way possible. I’ve a lot of good advice and experience in my ripe old age! Haha.

Heaven mentioned that she did not enjoy her biology class because the material was difficult and the teacher did not do a good job teaching it. Biology is what I intend to teach and this inspired me to come up with interesting and creative ways to ingrain key biological concepts into the young minds of my adolescent students. Personally, I feel that understanding biology is extremely important, not just scholastically, but because it is really useful in understanding the way the body and other living organisms work. When you have a better understanding of the fundamental elements, you can take better care of yourself and the things around you.
