So he says, right? Well, he says a lot of things. They're there to make you melt, because they will, if you're not strong. Too big a part of me knows better than to fall for the things everyone else falls for. Competition is not my key trait, I cringe and shudder at the thought. It's the simplicity, I guess. The awareness that this all just fits together. Perfection. The bigger crock of shit on the planet, and we all fell for it. Somewhere between the novels and movies and media frenzy we were all trying to love or hate - we lost. We got sucked into the ideals of a screen, a song. Now the Seth Cohen's of the world have something better to exist for besides comic books and video games. It's like this because one day the guy your parents picked on in high school actually went somewhere in life by writing a hit, teen drama. Because he saw your parents, and noted every stupid thing they cared about, every unsolved relationship they were in. The only difference was, as a graphic novel loving wallflower - he never fit in. So he created a version of himself that could score the Summer Roberts' of our time. Enter indie rock.
