Why I hate trendy people Reason #9: They are too damn picky.
I have always been of the school of thought that one is required to eat what is on your plate. I feel as though this has applied to my life. Eat what is put in front of you, deal with what you are given. However, I feel as though trendy people do not embrace this set of ideals. There are many directions I could explore with this discovery, however the most frustrating and recent encounter I have had with this attitude has been in terms of location. Trendy people are too damn picky when it comes to picking where to live. I have nestled away in a fortress free of trendy people. I am back in my haven of Northern Californian suburbia far away from any sort of trends and I am perfectly at ease. I have had no bombastic rants to start, no frustrating clothing choices to critique, and no stupid accessories to mock. While this makes me sublimely happy, it also makes me mad.
Trendy people, you are too damn picky! Perhaps you would be frustrated by the lack of diversity? Well, here in my city, being white is the minority, does that sound like diversity to you poor looking, but secretly rich, hipsters? We have hobos, we have gangs, we have ethnic food. What is so wrong with our city? Maybe if you opened your eyes, you'd realize that there are more than 2 cities in this great nation, and that there is beauty in the suburban lifestyle. Maybe if you weren't so picky, you would actually TRY the poor, rejected broccoli-city of San Jose that is on your plate, you'd realize that there is no need to shun us, and there is much to embrace in our world.
On second thought, we don't want you. It is a beautiful sunny day, and I can walk down the street and be greeted by people in only three piece outfits, shirt, jeans, sweatshirt. Oh, and tennis shoes. And to be greeted! No more trendy people casting judgement at my outfit and looking in the space above my head, which granted there is a lot of, instead of just saying a simple hello when we are the only ones on the street! It is so nice to finally be in a place where guys can wear just a t-shirt and jeans and there is no necessity for him to style himself any further. No "androgynous" (feminine) bracelets, no ridiculous hats. I am proud to be from a city of a million people where there is not one trendy person. Thank you hometown!
I think there might be some trendy people in Campbell...
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of walking in suburban San Jose is the looks people driving by give you. Often they seem to be wondering why anybody would walk anywhere when God invented the automobile to prevent such useless effort.
I F ING LOVE HIPSTAS:)
