Apparently I will not be able to be home alone at least for the next few months.
My city sucks for an alternative scene and people. It's like they're all holed up in their homes and refuse to come out or even frequent the internet. The one time I do meet one, he has issues that make mine look like a cake walk and doesn't want anything to do with me.
I'm so sick of all these sports bars, meatheads, hipsters, the rap/hip-hop scene, theatre/comedy hype, and yuppies. Just sick of all of these a**holes stealing all the spotlight in the city. Get out of my sight, you ugly, loud wastes of space...
I don't know if you mean alternative as in gay or just a misfit.
Back in "my day" you could be a misfit in America and find other misfits to hang with fairly easily. But these days people seem scared to be a misfit and seem more conformist than ever.
It was great! I had a flop haircut which was shaved in the back and long in the front, and I had friends with mohawks and Doc Martins. My first gf was a pale goth before that was even a thing.
But then, I come from the "Breakfast Club" generation and now if they made that movie they would be on their phones most of the time rather than sharing tender moments in a high school library. hehe
Misfit. I don't think I'd even consider gay to be alternative, not in a big metropolitan city, anyway.
I swear, I should've been born in a different decade. I hate everything.
I've heard gay referred to as "alternative" lifestyle before which is why I wanted to clarify that.
The 80s were pretty good time to be a misfit. Early 90s as well. I knew lots of strange people.
We'd stay up all night talking about weird shit or we would go get breakfast at like 3am with all the drunks.
Sounds like the good ol' days. Like I mentioned before, I can't even locate people online. Either they've all moved away from here or they've isolated themselves from the rest of the city that much. It's all so depressing.
Yeah, that does sound depressing.
I'm in a rural area now and it's depressing also. There really isn't anywhere to go or interesting people. Just the same old stuff over and over again. Everywhere you go.
Which is why I'm sitting here drinking alone....
:sad:
Perhaps I just need to get out more. I've been contemplating going to this place away from my yuppie neighborhood for the past 2 hours now (they open at 10). I don't like dancing, but even being a wallflower with a bottle of hard cider sounds more appealing than wallowing in my own misery.
well yeah! Maybe after you had a few you can dance.
I cant dance at all without a buzz going then after that I dont care what I look like.
