wearing scrunchies! AND ugly tights!!

yes, I know that collectively they look like the 8 year old girls who would normally sport such atrocity BUT don’t be fooled!

these bitches are grown ass women (well, maybe not the Chinese ones according to this here) and should be tried as so for continuously committing crimes of fashion.

CALLING ALL CARS!!!!

it’s not 1990 anymore people. yes, I know you were born the in the 90’s but I’m sorry, it’s shit is ridiculous.

Shawn Johnson, Nastia Liukin and the rest of you bitches need to pawn off your shiny medals and Nike contracts for some new clothes, hair accessories and maybe even some growth hormone because being 18 and barely topping 5′0” or weighing 90lbs is NOT NORMAL!!!

but shizzz… i guess if it can make you do some of the sick shit i saw in this video below AND kick the Chinese’s ass, then who cares right?

A 32-year-old British woman could not fool customs agents in Norway when she came through wearing a bulging wig. They became suspicious of the big wig and turns out she was concealing 2.2 pounds of cocaine under there! The woman had glued the cocaine to her head.

She was detained under suspicion of smuggling cocaine. The agents thought she had a lot of hair and suspected it was a wig. The cocaine was glued so strongly to the woman’s real hair that she had to be taken to the local hospital to have it removed. She is now being held until a formal indictment and trial.

Now Amy Winehouse’s nasty beehive all makes sense.

Okay, kudos to Sneak Attack Media on the email pitch I received the other day. I have NO idea what it’s for, and if it sucks that PR company will be the recipient of a manila envelope with headshot and glitter stars, ala Tobias Funke. But here goes:

“On April 15th there’s going to be a pretty huge announcement in LA, that seriously affects the rock world. Please check out the link below.

On April 15, there will be a huge announcement in rock. It will take place in LA and you can win a chance to hear the news first-hand. Check out this video for clues and if you think you know what’s up, enter your guesses at THEROCKVINE.COM for a chance to win.”

Okay, I’ll bite. I’m guessing it’s the announcement of some supposed badass supergroup, or maybe a rock reunion of some sort. I’m hoping dyed long hair and piles cocaine will be involved, though. Sneak Attack Media, your move…

I present you with yet another example of that staple of blogdom, that old-reliable dead horse of lulz, the INADVERTANTLY HUMOROUS MAINSTREAMING OF THE EMO CULTURE. YAYYYYYYYYY! Today’s contestant is ultra lame Lovetoknow.com, yet another shining example of why Web 2.0 is twice as lame as Web 1.0. In there stunningly well researched breakdown of Emo Hairstyles, they offer up such gems as “Emo Style Misconceptions”:

Teenagers are frequently misunderstood, and so are their hair styles. Emo styles, in particular, may be misunderstood by parents and adults who see the styles as rebellious or uncaring. Popular misconceptions include:

* Emo styles must be long hair. Even a short hair style can be crafted to reflect the wearer’s emotions, and an emo style with short hair can be just as expressive as one with long hair.
* Emo styles aren’t washed frequently. Because creating a style to reflect one’s emotions may require copious amounts of hair gel and other styling products, many people assume that the hair isn’t clean. While some teenagers may choose not to wash their hair daily, this is not a necessary characteristic of emo styles.
* Only guys wear emo styles. In fact, many young women use their hair styles to express their emotions, and female emo hair cuts are just as popular as those among young men. This misconception comes from the roots of the style, when primarily male bands first introduced the popular look to teenagers.
* Teens who wear emo styles are unstable. Parents and other adults can be nervous when a teen radically changes their hair style, especially if it is outside the accepted bounds of “proper” hair styles. The fact that many emo styles change regularly can be disconcerting to people who don’t understand the type of style. In fact, individuals who wear emo hair styles cannot be judged by the way their hair looks any better than they can be judged by the type of music they listen to or the clothes they wear.

And the even more inspiring “Choosing an Emo Style”:

The best place an individual can look for inspiration for their emo style, however, is inside themselves. Because an emo style is a deeply personal expression, it cannot be copied from another person who many not have the same thoughts, beliefs, or emotions. Certain elements of different hair styles may appeal to many teenagers, but the style should always incorporate personal flair and preferences for color, length, styling, and other details. Consulting with a professional stylist can also help individuals choose expressive styles that are suitable for their face shape, hair texture, and other hair care needs.

Best of all though, are the actual pictures of supposed “emo styles” which range from loser goth creep guy with a fucking dagger earring

to street punk dyke who sucks dick for enough money to buy a tall can of Steel Reserve:

SORRY BRO TOTALLY NOT EMO

Myself, I wasn’t entirely thrilled with Daphne Loves Derby’s Good Night, Witness Light, but about a hundred thousand 17 year old Asian scene kids who used to have mad rad hair accounts are THRILLED.

Like, OMG! Their PureVolume Page. Joining Daphne Loves Derby will be This Providence, The Higher and The Reign of Kindo. I’m kind of feeling This Providence, though.

After writing that I decided to track down my DLD album just to remind myself why they aren’t my favorite band. Diet punk for the sensitive and misunderstood. Now I need to listen to some brutal metal to cleanse my palette. fuuuuuuuuuu……..
