About Me

Basic Info
Hometown:

BioThey are conformists in their subculture of nonconformists. Typically in their 20's and 30's, values independent thinking, counter-culture, progressive politics, an appreciation of art and indie-rock, creativity, intelligence, and witty banter.

They read literature about drug use and depression, listen to music that nobody has heard of and think of themselves as beat poets.

They wear their jeans too tight and carry around moleskine journals. They write (usually shitty) poetry or engage in some kind of (failing) art form. They pretend to value intellect more than most things, but often are extremely stupid.

They complain about society. They like everything that is slightly subversive, like dressing in drag, smoking pot, or grafitti. Anything that requires a real risk, however, is not worth doing. They pretend to care about the environment, but litter. They smoke a lot. They curse a lot. They say they'd like to drop out of college and become a hermit in the mountains, but never do.

They express emotion through their lack of it. They pretend to be alienated, but actually fit in so well it's disgusting.

Favorite Quotations"Life is an art we are required to practice without preparation, a score that we play at sight even before we have mastered our instruments."
- Lewis Mumford
