We often over use the term when referring to random women of iv. "shes lost it" "shes gone off the deep end" when actually in reality what defines a person is there ability to be different from social norms. As much as we think this town makes people go crazy (and it might possibly do that) the world would be a very boring place if everyone acted like Billy Hahn, and all the girls dressed like Grace Kim. Being an individual is what separates you from the masses and gives you character, and i think our social group is a perfect example of individuality. Todd and derek are prime examples of how persons who have been conditioned socially in opposite manners make our group so dynamic. As i was growing up my mother always said better weird then boring and as i grow up and become more mature i realize that this is so true, individuality is important to out being and keeps life interesting.
This made me think about individuals in our world that are far from social normality and the first person that comes to mind was my boy Chad Ochocinco. He might be the most interesting man in the world, he lacks friends but somehow with his self-fascination is able to lead a happy and "normal" life. Twitter has been his outlet to create a group of friends that he does not know, but at the same time he feels close to. His dynamic being is what makes him so interesting, being so far off the beaten path. He is once again planning a name change to "hachi go", and i have no idea why and yet at the same time am fascinated with this fact. It is the things like this that make him different from any other superstar, defining him as an INDIVIDUAL.
Just a thought about how such an ECLECTIC group of friends are able to share the good times that we have, while constantly being fascinated jimmy's jokes, race's antics, todd's simplicity, der der's uniqueness, duncan's wits, pruett's anxiety, landon's maturity, and reggie's lack of west coast knowledge. This quarter alone has provided endless amounts of fun and i hope we dont take the altered reality for granted.
Fall 09' was a good one boys!

thanks for the shout out. glad to know you care
Best post yet Mitro.... Individuality has always intrigued me more than any of you guys know. No matter how much i am different from, or to the extreme, how much i disagree with someone, there is something deeply rooted within me that cant help but find peace in the diversity of the world. Personality is the one substance that is truly ours... It takes all sorts

hipLECTIC cheaaa boyyy
besides being a great post, the one word that comes to mind is adderal
great post (even though I didn't get a shout out). It was so good in fact that I almost believe DK posted this accidentally under mitros name or something...
Well said.
ps. I believe you left out one aspect to this post and that is you of course.
Mitro provides a blunt, insensitive and charismatic realism that is well rounded, CONSISTENT, and appreciated by all the homies in one way or another. Whether you wanna hear it or not, Mitro doesn't really give a fuck and will let you know what's up. I've learned this through my breakup drama, and it was always a little rough but also refreshing. Adds a lot to the group. Yadida. Oh ya and I agree with the beef. ADDDY!
Jimmy and Mitro must have been taking e pills this week instead of addys because this post/comment section seems to be the biggest fuckin reach around the blogosphere has seen... ever. Last night these two proceeded to look at the entire history of their wall to wall posts sitting right next to each other. I admire the sentiments boys but you aren't breaking up. Winter quarter starts in three weeks...y'all can manage.
Go back to bliplectic lover boy.
hahahhahahahaha
ya-did-a
Get'em
