Description
Don't leave stupid comments about musical preference or the phrase 'emo poser,' please. This is all in good fun.This honestly happened. I was at Virgin, eyeing an MCR shirt when I saw two teenagers in matching outfits ogling the same shirt.
I felt so old.
But I got the shirt anyway, because it shouldn't matter.
They were cute. One had a little pink bow in her hair. I almost went over to them and pointed out other MCR stuff the store had, but I figured they would find it.
I guess I'm never growing up . . . simply because my handwriting still looks like I'm five.

I don't look like the typical MCR fan. I have big boobs and hips, so skinnies and baggy band tees dont go. I do have dark hair, but thats natural. So I would've been the girl in the corner eyeing the shirt and wishing I could buy it.
No matter how old you are, you are never to old to be AWESOME and love MCR. And display that love proudly.
I intend to be buried in a black parade jacket. And I'm not dieing until I'm at least 103. 99 years to go!

That story made me really happy [:
And it reminds meof when me and three friends met up and by no forward planning:
3 out of 4 of us had black skinnes
3 out of 4 of us had the black parade tour tee
and all 4 of us had the Together We March hoodie
We must have looked so cool walking down the highstreet together xDDD

But you've got the piercings, right?? Gosh, my mom woulda killed me if I ever got those . . . however, I've been out of the house for quite some time; but with my job, black hair dye is all I got XD;; (I want pink, though!) Someday, I will have multiple tattoos and will scare my future childrens' teachers. Oh what fun!! XD
(I got the hips, too . . . . DAMN HIPS!)

love it, and good advice
I feel your fear; I have seen many a younger otaku that make me question what I look like to "normal" people. sigh... but I too, am happy with myself and where fandom has taken me, so keep on truckin' Rae! At least we can say we were there before most of them were, no?

I'll admit, even with all the pics you have online, with your bright personality, I almost didnt recognize you at megacon. but then I quickly lol'd at my self since i've seen your pic before.
and true, you're a bright person in RL so it was a funny joke to my self. ^^

I'm twenty years old and still act like a kid! O_o; And people keep on mistaking me for a high school student so meh!
Good story by the way. It made me smile and I loved the morale of it.

Ah, R-chan, you're funny.
Incidentally - what IS your favorite MCR song? Just curious.

Heaven Help Us. It was a B-Side for one of the Black Parade singles!

That's an amazing story, seriously. With a good moral at the end c:
I wish there was a Virgin store around us. Only really crappy FYEs.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
we've got a couple of FYE's . . . that's it. A Best Buy here and there and a Circuit City . . . .
But really, I do most of my music shopping on iTunes or Amazon these days XD The big chains are so damned expensive!!

Panel 17 is my favourite haha.
Good on you for getting the shirt <3

oh for the love of cheese. if there's one thing that bothers me is when self-claimed 'old' people worry about what they look like. wear what you're comfortable in, no matter what it is. my mother is in her 40's and she absolutely adores MCR; she even steals my Black Parade hoodie sometimes when she leaves for work in the morning! D< (and if that's old, then i'm terrible for wearing loads of Spongebob shirts o_________o; )
it's funny though, really. the Hot Topic where i live is both good and bad, but mostly bad. i LOVE Hot Topic and all, but for god's sakes there are asshats in that store. the only good store in the mall is f.y.e.; the people are so friendly there D:

Heh; the kids at Hot Topic here at our main mall are nice, but the mall is very touristy because of the location. We get a lot of . . . "OMG, what did I walk into?!' looks on people's faces when we see them go into HT.
I will most likely be dressing like this well into my 40s. Which is scary only because it's . . . . 13 years away. Years go by fast XD;;;;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
HAH! there are nice people who pop into HT every once and a while but not often enough. our mall is full of ugly people

LMAO!!!!!!!! ... I feel old in my skinny jeans too. POST PICS OF YOU IN THE T-SHIRT. You're all describing your hair and makeup and clothes, and I realize I haven't seen you in, in, in... forever!

Awe, if you dig around through my gallery you'll find a photo or two! There's more on my MySpace, however.

Aahhhh, such a good story. And SUCH GOOD MORALS.

I gave in to the skinny jeans also because they fit! (I was surprised, too . . .) I'm glad they don't look like 'mom jeans', the kind that hug you in all the wrong areas and with waists that go up to your neck.
Your avatar, btw = awesome XD

i'm glad lol doesn't stain! now rofl on the other hand, i hear it's impossible to get out!

I think OxyClean works for some forms of rofl, but only if it's on a certain fabric (not skinny jeans!). Rotfllmao stains need to be dry-cleaned!

Lol ^_^ I had a very similar experience in a Hot Topic shopping with my little sister a couple weeks ago >< "You listen to Otep??? But you're.... OLD"
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Similar to when I saw a 10-year-old wearing a too-big-for-him AFI shirt.
But I can't judge, because when I just a couple of years older than that kid I was listening to Nine Inch Nails XD;

Woooow. Nice story. You always see yourself out of the "cliche" until someone else shows it to you. I'm the same way. I hate being called an "otaku." I'm just me.
