Overheard

I have a ton of things to blog about when I get caught up. Philly, beer, training, eMusic selling out, the rise of web sites mocking people as a direct response to the New Irony - but in the meantime, this was lingering in my inbox, and was too funny not to share.

Szczepanski sent me this link: 

http://www.gothsinhotweather.com/

The conversation went from there...

I argue constantly with my girlfriend about the hotness of skinhead girls with chelsea cuts. She thinks they're horrendous, I think they're pretty much the hottest thing ever. I crushed hard on every skin girl at the basement shows I used to go to. I recently figured out why she doesn't like the chelsea: there was a gaggle of mean (probably cool) skinhead girls at her highschool who weren't very nice to her as she was a soccer girl who was too much into Epitaph label punk. Called her a poser and all that. Ever since then she's had a vendetta for anything chelsea. Sucks for me.

@Zach, It wouldn't be punk without fascism, I suppose. Sucks for you indeed.
