For generations, teenagers have vowed to defy everything their parents were about. We talk about "hipsters", this terrible collection of people who use the dreaded Instagram, wear vintage clothing, and obsess over new bands. They've existed before, they were called hippies and record heads. We've always had bad boys, who say their favorite color is black in the form of a leather jacket, and drop the name of every girl they've nailed. We've always had the kids who sit in the back hoping not to be called on, and the kids who raise their hands to every question. Maybe your dad was a jock and you've dedicated yourself to science, but i'd bet money on the fact that they swirlied a different incarnation of you the generation before.
We ARE our parents.
We defy the government, and deny religion, and wear less and less clothing but to be honest- it's been done! We're doing it more extreme sometimes, but no matter how many more peircings we get than them, they did it.
We listen to dubstep,
they listened to rock and roll,
their parents listened to jazz.
Each new wave of rebellion has topped the last, but it's still us doing what mankind has always done.
Defied our parents.
HAHA YOU THINK YOU'RE ORIGINAL
