It's That Time Again...
Yup, you guess it. It's time for another one of Tog's oh-so-famous 'I hate my friends' rant. Yesterday I invited my friend (let's call her R) over to help me with my cosplay. Instead we ended up playing on my computer. Now, have I told you how much of a presumptuous, self centered, annoying bitch she is? Well, she really is. So, we started talking about how annoying it was that things that were interesting and genuinely good get popular and liked for all the wrong reasons. And this brings up the topic of Donny Darko, which I saw in one of the six theaters it was released in, in the the US. And she has the nerve to say this:
R: Gah, it sucks. Donny Darko was cool until everyone else started liking it.
Tog: I guess I know what you mean, it's still good. I was the first person I know to hear about it and like it but it is annoying that now people seem to think of it as a new pop icon.
R: Gawd! I know! I mean, I rented it off the new releases section as soon as you told me about it. I hate how everyone's always copying me.
See?! SEE?! Do you see the big point there?! Damn, that pisses me off! She always thinks that the popular trends follow her around. But of course, they only follow her after she learns them from me! Now, I'm not claiming that I start trends. I do whatever the Hell I feel like, who the fuck cares if it gets popular? But R! R! She copies whatever I do and then is shocked when it becomes popular. Okay, now this may sound really dumb, but when I was in 5th grade I was wearing all black, baggy clothes, died hair, the works. Well, I met R in 5th grade. By 6th grade my style had evolved to always wearing a trench coat (I still do!) and all black, with nice big boots with lots of metal on them. Well, by 7th grade R was wearing a coat all the time. She was dying her hair. And then she started to get into the crappy music that I liked in 5th and 6th grade. So, then she became all 'punk'. Going to local 'punk' concerts, playing drums in a 'punk' band. Well, I never claimed to be punk or anything (of course, if I had to claim to be something, it much rather be 'goth' and not 'punk'). I liked what I liked and that was it. Anyway, back to the point.

R! You are always 2 steps behind me, so fuck off!


Thank you, and this concludes another thrilling installment in the classic 'I Hate My Friends' series.
