wanna know how i know you're gay....

(i saw you make spinach dip in a bread bowl and you macrame'ed yourself a pair jean shorts)

i believe that you cannot judge a book by the cover (unless it's a hardcore romnace novel when the shirtless man cradling a listless woman is a big hint) but i believe you can tell a lot about a person based on their music and literature selection. as i write this i am listening to josh's ipod, and though he makes a valid excuse that he is missing a large portion of his music due to an unfortunate argument with itunes that his computer won, what is interesting that is that the first music he chose to restore was all the broadway show tunes. and though he claims that the shuffle is retarded and only plays a few albums, the fact is he has many albums, but they re all bootlegs of the same thing. though there is nothing wrong with being particular in your music selection, if were a random person on the street i could probably get a pretty good character analysis just from his music selection. the heavy amount of broadway would suggest a heavy theatre or gay influence (and this is not stereotyping, stereotypes are nothing more than what is true about people that you are afraid to say) with a deep respect and need for approval for your parents by the large amounts of queen and eric clapton, as they are not typical teenage choices. as a child you are kinda forced to listen to your parent's music, choosing to put their music on your ipod when you are older just makes you feel that there was a deeper relationship.

I wonder what someone thinks when they play my mo3 player if they didn't know me already. The large amount of indie rock, country, stand-up comedy and euro techno pop does suggest the possibity of multiple personalities.

my cousin alena said that the only way to judge someone's personality is through what books they bring with them to college. at home there is all the room in the world for books, but at college you have a shared 15x15 square to store, so choices must be made. i am just going through my list that i will bring with me to school and i know i am going to have to edite it. anna karenina, lolita, under the marble sky, perks, devil wears prada, breaking point, and....i need to go and make a list

You know what? Saying my music makes me look like a fag was a pretty rude thing to say when it was just us two. This is just plain bitchy. And where the hell did you get this "need for parental approval via my iPod" bullshit? I'll probably regret this little outburst int he morning, but I dont think that's any way to be a friend.
