And yes, you are safe from being pretentious, but you are (and I am really not being mean, but it's what "they" would say) a wannabe.
That's what Katii just said in my deadjournal. A wannabe what? I'm not trying to be anything other than myself, and as far as I know, you can't fail at being yourself if you're not trying to be someone else. That just really pisses me off. I don't think I'm a wannabe anything and it just really pisses me off that she said that. So now I have to wait and see what she says back. I don't know why, but that just really, really pisses me off for some reason.

Well, she just said that because one of the questions on the survery thing had to do with some brands of clothes, and I was like "I wish I had more of those clothes" because they're good quality clothes and I like them, but they're really expensive, so apparently from that, lots of snooty punk types in Minneapolis would've said I'm a wannabe punk, even though I don't even like punk music all that much, or am punk in anyway. Of course, just the fact that I love shopping and like having a style (I don't like "fashion" at all, but I like having a personal style, like the people in FRUiTs) and am very appearance-focused is enough to condem me to hell a thousand times over for a lot of people. I like looks, but as corny as it sounds, it really is what's inside that counts. So anyway, I'm not pissed off anymore right now, and that's a good thing.
