I'm Tiffany, and I live in an 'I've got it easy' neighborhood of Chicago. I trip and stumble over punctuation, and I post every Chuck Klosterman quote I come upon. Que pasa? |

notes CC:I wish I could attach my name to your interests. At least, the interests you had after meeting me. I knowingly provide fodder for the conversations you have with other people. (The ones that contain absolutely no mention of me, of course.) Is that fair? Can one really own one’s own preferences for movies, literature, music…? I’d like to. I’m aware of how hypocritical I’m being. Such is the essence of being human, you’d likely tell me.
Name-dropping is an avenue in which to become acquainted with people. We bond over liking the same things; fawning over the same artists. By that logic, you should be still be excited to talk to me. But you’re greedy. There’s novelty in having self-congratulating conversations with people who are not me, despite how LIKE me they are. Then again, perhaps I’ve just become a part of you and paradoxically unimportant. It’s easier to push someone away once you’ve absorbed all of their intrigue.
I bet, you think this song is about you.
The name-drop is so fucking crucial.

notes"I don’t know if you’ve ever felt like that. That you wanted to sleep for a thousand years. Or just not exist. Or just not be aware that you do exist. Or something like that. I think wanting that is very morbid, but I want it when I get like this. That’s why I’m trying not to think. I just want it all to stop spinning."Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower (via jacqueline-bui)
