Wow... em... don't know what to say... em... wow...
*CB shuffles uncomfortably as the pressure of the laugh within reaches tantimount*
Like I said... I must be getting old...
When you said they dress like comic book heros... I though you were taking the p*ss out of Mac's taste in music... but no... they're dressed like comic book characters.... can't see anything like that happening over here in Blighty... our kids are cynics and mean b*stards! Far too concerned with looking uber cool!
End of BITCHINESS... CB reverts back to her normal less bitchy self... but can't believe that no one else finds it not even the tiniest weeniest bit funny... I mean not even a wry smile crossed any of your faces?
I'm dumbstruck! I mean even the fact that Mac looks like... Keanu Reeves in Bill and Ted... hasn't made anyone giggle!?

But you see, it
isn't a nerd thing. It's not like a Star Trek convention or anything; I am known througout the school for my obsession with the Aquabats, and I am very well respected. They're just all about being goofy and silly and being complete dorkwads, but being aware of it and having fun with it. When I go to the show dressed as a superhero sheriff, I KNOW I look like a dweeb, and that's why it's so much fun. The point of the costumes is to be funny and wacky. That's the whole atmosphere of the band. Nobody really thinks they're superheroes, it's just a funny thing. It's awesome BECAUSE it's so lame.
And then it's fun when we meet people like you who don't get it, who don't have that higher level of humor, and just think "OMG that's so lame, I'm so much cooler than that." And then we just laugh in their faces because of their stupidity and insecurity.
