kill the fluoros

Seriously bitches, get your own trend.

I lived through the fluoro movement once, now it seems it's back, along with statement tees.

Observe:

This t-shirt would be made that much more exciting if on the back it said:

"50 cent I swallow"



Even I would wear that.


But yeah, is this what our parents went/are going through when we first wore flared jeans and psychodelic tops and called ourselves 'hippies'? Or when we put on those white knee boots (NB: NEVER owned a pair, am speaking 'metaphorically') to bring back the mod movement, for about the 3rd time since the original '60s movement?

The '80's was ours, all ours, and now it can be raped and pillored by any 16 year old wearing leg warmers and a ra-ra skirt.


It's enough to make me write rude words with my finger on my hypercolour t-shirt.

ha funny stuff you know I doubt that sales would hinder at all with the 50 cent bit on it, come to think of it, it would probably increase it, you really should copyright that.

Still I much prefer the whole teeny bopper revolution than the multitudes of emo's running around, creepy little punks.

Teenagers are stupid!

My friend had a 'fleuro' party last week where they decked out the house in black lights - there were a few of these shirts as they were cheap and good when they glowed. It is so sad to see people in these shirts SERIOUSLY, like at the shops and concerts...

Am I so wrong, I love the bright happiness of the current trend. It's kind of like a flashback without taking a hit of drugs to get you there. Um, or something *cough*
