my neighborhood is OVERRUN with emo freaks who are obsessed with SXSW. it's extremely entertaining to watch, and even more entertaining when you overhear the following conversation while making a trash stop on your way out for an after-work run:
emo dude #1: "dude, you weigh WHAT?!"
emo dude #2: "i weigh 114 pounds."
emo dude #1: "dude, you only weigh 114 pounds?!"
emo dude #2: "yeah, so what?"
emo dude #1: "dude, i weigh 154 pounds! that's like a difference of..."
silence
silence
silence
emo dude #1: "dude, that's a difference of like, 50 pounds!"
aww, emo dude #1. you were so close. SO close!! better luck next time. also, just FYI: skinny-fit plaid pants, faded band t-shirts and wristlets do NOT look good on you. neither do aviator sunglasses.
