yea, you're cool. cracking on someone for where they work. you're awesome.
Was it a joke? Yes. Was it made in bad taste? Yes.
I took into account what the kid has posted here (including the wonderful, "Im not reading 110 pages all I wanna know is am I getting laid?"), his picture, and the fact that his AIM screen name is sxe (or straight edge, for those of you who aren't familiar with that vernacular) mosh warrior, and made the assessment that this kid is a scenester much like the ones I encounter here in Port Huron. These hardcore kids (scenesters) enjoy inflicting pain upon others at their shows because they don't agree with something about the person. In my dealings with kids of these like, I have seen them beat people with chains at shows, start fights with glass bottles at shows, and even start a riot that almost killed a black man. While my band was playing a show at a venue, they started a fire which almost hurt a lot of people and ruined a lot of expensive equipment. While yes, I was generalizing this person and his way of life based on superficial matters, and I really have no room to do that, I just don't like scenesters, and I tend to call it how I see it.
OMG, you work at Hollister? I bet you're like the greatest surfer ever if you work there! The waves you catch in West Virginia must be sick man! Party on, bro!
Now cheesy, don't be so critical. Many good things have come from Hollister and their Abercrombie counterparts...like the reintroduction of sexism in the workplace! As well as exposing our youth to the materialistic values we as a society try to let go of with events like Roo.

Don't forget forcing your employees to wear your product, and to conform to a certain physical shape, or be out a job. Your body is already there and shaped like one of the manikins, why not have you advertise while you're here!

Congrats, you're the first person I'm throwing karma at on here! A lady friend of mine used to work in a Hollister, she told me her boss gave her a hard time one morning when she came in without makeup. Pretty lame place to be if you ask me.
Sorry if I'm offending anyone who works at Hollister or any of their branch stores, I just don't agree with their companies views or the way they treat their employees...or the rest of the population for that matter.

But, um...I'm still single!
Right back at ya, buddy. I do understand that me sitting on here mocking someone for where they work won't change a thing, but anyone with some self respect wouldn't want to be a part of that greed and hate machine. Sometimes, you just need to fight fire with fire.
Also, I got bored, and took some photos tonight, so I figured, why not post one here?! Pardon my paleness, I have a cold. And yeah, I know what you're thinking, yes, that is indeed a Charmander shirt I am wearing. What can I say? I dig rpg games about catching and battling creatures. haha.

WTF are you talking about man? Im in a hardcore band in Atlanta and the straight edge kids are the ones that make shows great. They have conviction and actually stick to what they believe in. I tip my hat to them for that. Ive never seen one person start any issues like what youre talking about. Sounds like you got some amatuers in your town or something. People sacrificing their bodies for the love of their music isnt hatred or mean spirited either man. People need to quit hating on the mosh! Also, raggin on this kid for where he works is weak too. At least he works ya know. He could be like so many kids his age and sit around n smoke pot all day n do absolutely nothing with himself. Stereotyping on someone like that is well.......kinda bro...bro.

These crews ruin shows. I've seen them do it all over Michigan and New England. 810, the "hXc crew" in my town, have made repeated death threats to me. My friend Chase got stabbed by one of them at a show. FSU, NE FSU, Boston Crew, Critters Crew, I could go on about how many crews I have heard of that just start suburban gang warfare (which sounds retarded when you think about it). And most of these hardcore kids talk a big game about being "edge" or whatever, but I see them sneaking alcohol into shows and smoking out back, all the while beating on kids who don't agree with them. The "hardcore" crowd is ruining music right now. It all sounds the same. All terrible Norma Jean and UnderOath carbon copies (and those two bands are garbage anyway). All these crews are are gangs.
Here's a story for you. A touring hardcore band from New England came to Port Huron to play a show. Also on the bill that day was a local band called the Scarlett Letter, fronted by 810's leader Chris Brennan. Scarlett Letter got done playing and the guys in the touring band were having a joke at their merch table about how all these local bands sound the same. Chris Brennan overhears this and walks up to the guys acting tough. He throws their merch table over and his "crew" starts forming a circle around the band, each member of the "crew" was taking out brass knuckles, bats, and chains. The other band wound up packing up their stuff and leaving. This same crew has made it so that we can't have any shows in Port Huron. I strongly dislike these hardcore kids and what they stand for. That and the music is rubbish.
im sarah. 20. lookin for someone to sweep me off my feet and take me behind the porta pottys for some of that dirty smelly roo sex. also looking for special people to eat special treats and stay up all night long with. then in the morning we can pass out in the shade just so i can wake up and not remember your name or anything we did. hahaha. im serious though.

well first off...the kids youre talking about are not straight edge. second off, the bands that you mentioned are not hardcore. metalcore maybe...but not hardcore. and you are aware that norma jean and underoath are both christian bands right? you can not like my music all day long, but its not going away. if you want to hear some real hardcore and what its really about, listen to some bane, death threat, comeback kid, cold world, have heart...something of that sort. all of these bands that i mentioned are all straight edge and talk about nothing but positive things. im not sure whats wrong with people up in your town, but they are definitely not what hardcore is about.

ill only holler if its sex inside the porta-potty.

i'm joli. that's me in my picture (albeit taken 4 years ago) freshly 21 as of january 29th. 6'2" (when i'm barefoot... & sinking into the ground a little bit)
uhh what else do i write?? i drink... looove red wine, but at roo i'm sure i'll be crackin' brewskies like no one's business. cigarettes sometimes.... when provoked. green friendly.
oh yes, i'm a fine arts student (painting major... art history/art education minors) living & studying in rome (the lower calf of the italian boot ??) since september. but go to college in philadelphia. this'll be my 3rd bonnaroo, 2nd volunteering with clean vibes. andddd bands i can't miss includee: jack johnson sigur ros (was gonna go to iceland in may with hopes that they'd be playing on a glacier somewhere... broken social scene allman brothers (again) willie nelson (again)
hmmmmm... well, yes. i'm tall. perhaps the tallest girl on here? if you are tall and you want to be friends (or just need a hug), lemme know ;D
i'm going where the sun keeps shining, thru' the pouring rain, going where the weather suits my clothes. backing off of the north east wind, sailing on summer breeze, and skipping over the ocean like a stone.
