| All Hail to the Almighty $$$$!!!! |
Ladies and Gentlemen, step right up!!! What I have for you is a must for every little punkrocker of today!!! Yes, you, too, can have your own, personal Sid Vicious or Johnny Rotten action figure for the low price of $19.95.
This is a must have for all you hardcore punks out there. Make mommy and daddy cringe as you exhibit your fine collection of figures - paying hommage to your heros.
Are you fucking kidding me? I could not believe my eyes when I saw these pre-packaged, commercialized "action figures" neatly placed on display for all the supposedly hardcore punks to see.
It was a sad day when Dr. Martens were sold in their exclusive mall stores too all who wanted to be cool. But this is absolutely absurd. I am just curious who held the rights to authorize this absolute sacreligious action.
I know it was not Sid - he is dead. Is Malcom hurting for money? Is Johnny trying to recoup all the money Malcom stole from him during the Sex Pistol days?
I also ponder the thoughts as to why no "rebellious" figures of Steve, Paul or maybe even Glen. I guess they are not as "marketable." Does that mean Sid and Johhny are on the same level as Justin Timberlake of N'sync?
Oh the insanity of it all is killing me slowly. Is there really No Future? Is punk really dead?

Punk IS slowly dying... but certainly not dead. Unfortunately, capitalism knows no bounds and will creep its ugly head into any and all "pop"ular arenas.
Unfortunately as well, our youths are still trying to figure themselves out, and what better place to tell them "How to be a Hard-core Punk" then the mall...
So we try and not be elitist... 'cause that is why we are "anti-establishment ," and just let the little fools figure it out for themselves... it's a right of passage, aye?
As long as they don't give me shit about going to the show, what do I care? |
