Permitted Activities

for

November 11, 2004

Now that irony is dead--l'ironique est mort, vive l'ironique blah blah--a quick list of permitted activities: * Standing up straight, losing the slouch * You can hate your parents again * You no longer have to work for The Man * Knowing Things * Being naturally pretentious * Grungewear is again allowed * You may hate The Strokes, The Darkness, Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, Ashlee Simpson, and Ashton Kutcher with abandon * You don't have to like your squalor * Ideals are okay, but you can't make me like yours * Also okay: aspirations * Ambition: not just for breakfast * Suits: for formal occasions or if The Man says so * Cocaine: just a drug, no party involved * Irony does not need to be trifled with if you are an untrained civilian (non-comedians, non-serious writers, Alanis Morissette) * Breast implants: porn stars and mastectomy patients * Be self-effacing, ya big dork
