Re: Nokia Lolita - KatyPerryianism

So I'm scrolling through your awesome comments from NokiaLolita (ThankyouTHANKYOU!), and I notice something. I ponder it.

Has my scrollbar always been such an ugly shade of blue?

No, seriously - I notice that something irks Janet (Hay, gurl) the same way it has always been irking somanyofus:

I call it KatyPerryianism.

Exactly.
That's the face I make when I think about it, too.

So she macked on a chick and enjoyed it.
Also, she sampled her fruit-flavored petroleum.
We all know of your drunken lesbian escapade, Perry, but do you know what kind of ridiculous trend you just gave an anthem to? Thereby making it not only okay, but cult-like and pelvis-thrustingly contagious?!

FAUX LESBIANISM.
Ask about it.

KatyPerryianism is the new "Look, I'm Religious - Ignore the Blunt/Shot/FratBro's Penis at the End of this Wrist" Bracelet – very little people actually root their morals in Catholicism, but yo' Jewish gramma is selling it at the flea market for $3. It's cheap attention.
Mary's your Homegirl cause you're, y'know, "down-to-earth".
You take pictures making out with your roommate cause you, y'know, "Luv to partyyy! Amigad, XO PARTYING."
It's being different - no, being "controversial and proud" - thats become a goddamn trend, but as we can see, you don't need actual morals to be trendy.

You basically just need to be drunk.
Or, y'know.
Naturally stupid.

I had this chat with someone the other day: Maybe displaying faux-lesbianism, be it on your MySpace “Orientation” or in/around your mouth, is supposed to give the viewer a sense of “I could possibly have a threesome with this girl.” Cue tingling in pants. Follow up with the raunchy comment. Follow up with the STD.

But how offensive and annoying is that to those who actually identify themselves as bi/homosexual, the (pardon my SoCal) legit who endure the social prosecution and don't give themselves a choice of ducking out once you can't take the heat (not the kind in your pants.)? Not to say that everyone takes this KatyPerrysexualism so seriously, but EFF – if being brown became a trend, and all the pasty-whites start flaunting their tan-tasticness-from-a-bottle, I might go on a lemon-juice-&-sponge rampage to expose those suckers who ain't really down with the brown.

It's the claiming what you ain't that irritates me.

But Ian brought up a good point: All this banter on the female image, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, check-out-my-new-training-bra -- maybe its not all about attention depravity.

"The problem is that the person isn't being challenged to grow and discover their potential. They seek confirmation of their perfection, and if they get it, they get complacent with their existence. But one day they will have a difficult time, and they won't be able to rely on anyone but themself, and they'll either rise to the occasion or crumble..." -- Ian

This is true. It's a never-ending cycle of whorebaginess.
Maybe its that attention is too easy - ya show ya boobs, the boys go WOO. You ride on your looks - or what you Photoshop as your "looks" - and you don't consider that there's more to do with yourself than RateAPic (7th grade. Guilty.).
But unless someone kicks the whore in the head, or pushes them to give a crap about their intellect or personality, what else will they know what to do but be a whore? I mean, these are our future legislators and registered voters - isn't anyone else alarmed?!

It could be that I am tired, or that I have my head so far into my pretentious ranting that I can'ts rants no mores. I wanna see where this GOES.

What has caused this sudden switch in lesbian sentiment from "YUCK" to "YUSS"?
What's the difference between being experimental & being trend sheep?
& Baggy pants, phone bling, pop singers leading bisexuality -
What the hell kind of ridiculous trend could be NEXT?!

Verbalize it, like the guy talking to himself behind me in the library right now: bernalittlebit@gmail.com!
