   Random Tanget
Yes, that's right, a random tangent from the wonderful Laura. You know what I can't stand? People who accuse other people of being "posers." Most people who throw around accusations at other people who are in a certain stereotype tend to be posers themselves. For example, I wear a lot of black clothes and am pretty pale and occasionally wear dark make-up but that doesn't make me a goth. I mean, I have no clue who most of the people on the band t-shirts at Hot Topic are, I don't write dark, depressing poetry about death. But I've still been accused of being a goth wannabe, a "poser." Just because I dress a certain way, but don't fit all of the stupid qualifications for a stupid stereotype, I'm a poser?! I'd never want to be labelled as ANYTHING, because no matter what, someone would call me a poser, and why would anyone want to be labelled as anything, anyway? It limits you so much. You can't be different. You have to act like people expect, dress like people expect, listen to what people expect you to, or risk being accused of being a poser. One of the things that really made me angry was this one guy's blog. He posted a "test" to see if any of the people reading his blog were posers, and one of the questions was "If you're a punk, name at least three skateboard[or snowboard, I don't quite remember] brands." So let me get this straight. If you know the names of some stupid brands you're a "true punk"? Loser.
