The funny thing about "postmodern" is that it is an impossibility to talk about when describing something in the present or past!

Modern is NOW, and post modern is the future. People talk as if "modern" ended in 1980 or something...

i don't know; i think it becomes a question of semantics. i look @ it the way it is defined with art--there's a big difference btwn. the modernists and contemporary artists. the word Modern suddenly becomes a title or a pronoun and not necessarily indicative of the definition of modern that one would find in the dictionary. so in this sense post-modern makes sense in the sense that it makes a statement in the face of a movement that has been historically defined as Modern; which again, does not mean contemporary but rather is either a pronoun or adjective used to label an era.....

Funny thing about that tshirt... and this goes to show how un-emo I am.. that tshirt she is wearing in that picture, was bought at American Eagle.
The only reason hwy I know that, is because I was shopping with a friend of mine and she bought it.
You would think emo people would be against conforming... oh wait.... hahahahaha..... so anyways, you would think they would be against wearing brandname stuff... SPECIALLY American Eagle

Emus wouldn't be caught dead in a pair of Converse shoes. It hides their vicious feet with their razor sharp claws that could gouge out your eyes. It was the 2nd most commom method of accidental death in Australia in 1793. :p
