Mmm, nice weather we have of late, no? The cool breeze and the rain has such an soporific effect. When I step out on the balcony, breeze sweeps all my worries away, leaving me calm and at peace. Bye bye stress!
I’m a bitch. I’ve been told that many times in the last few weeks, and I can’t help but agree. Proud of it, more like. Did you know that not many people are born with natural all-around bitchiness? Yes, it’s true! The rest of the bitch population are momentary bitches, and if you think for a moment that being a bitch is easy, ho ho! You are sorely mistaken!
We bitches have to generate insults, snide remarks, withering looks, haughty-holier-than-thou airs, all the while maintaining our image as alpha female, and not stoop to the level of the crazed bimbo. It’s an art to be a bitch, and the highest compliment to a bitch is to be told so. Oh, and have you noticed that no one really hates bitches? They may hate the arrogant bitch, the cold-hearted bitch, the bitchy bitch, but not the bitch. The others are merely variants of bitch.
I suspect that there’s at least a little bitch in all of us, and sometimes, she might just save our butts. Therefore grooming the inner bitches should be a mandatory self-preservation precaution.
What propelled me to update today is not because I had a seemingly sudden appreciation for my bitch, rather, it’s Avril Lavigne.
Yes, that whiny woman with legions of tween fans all over the globe. The American music industry has stopped producing quality artistes for quite some time now, but AL is one of their best low. She’s tagged as a multi-talent, she sings(croak!), she writes(how sure are you?), she plays the guitar(so…?), she looks good on magazines(ah, yes the ultimate marketing tool) , she’s all about girl power(so much like PCD, no?), she’s PUNK!(yea, as punk as my mum) Her music, in my opinion, is immature(Hey! Hey! You! You! Please let me fark you!), discriminatory(she has a decided thing against preps =.=) and most of them, rather shallow. To be fair, there are one or two saving graces, like I miss you or something. But her overall image and music does not convince me one bit that her biggest concern is not the size of her bank account.
I don’t know what inspired me to Yahoo for reviews for her album, I was just looking for entertainment to ease my stress a little. Honest, raw reviews, not reviews by the people that own music stores. Oh, I revel in all the Avril bashingness! My favourite line: I’m a strong believer in the idea that you can’t sell out if you were a poser to begin with.
I still (till the day I R.I.P, I wouldn’t understand why) have friends who like AL. But I guess, not everyone’s a bitch enough to spot the fake bitch (her video for Girlfriend is both tasteless and mean). Has anyone forgotten that’s she’s 23? Has she forgotten? And married? I was hoping that marriage would prop her into the world of mature adults. So far, it has been a letdown. Not to mention her army of young, impressionable fans, the way she portrays and treats so-called “uncool” people is extremely irresponsible. I wonder how she sleeps at night. Probably with her bank statements as pillow stuffing.
I’m going off now (yea right, am too lazy to continue typing) Ciao!
