I am not a martini man, nor do I drink bourbon, nor scotch. I do not drive a BMW, I do not wear suits to fancy parties. I do not talk to rich girls and fuck them in their parents' room. I do not turn on my big screen flat TV in the evening to listen to the evening news after coming home from the local gym with my personal trainer. I do not listen to Mozart, I do not take dates to five-star restaurants, and my phone is not a Blackberry. I am not James Bond.
I drink Hamm's Wisconsin Premium Beer and Ten High whiskey. I drive a rusty, beat-up Toyota sedan which is almost as old as I am. I wear jeans with holes in them that were not there when I bought them, and zip-up hoodies with bleach stains on the sleeves from accidental contact with Clearasil. I go to bars when the drinks are cheap and friends' house parties where the mood is relaxed. I use one screen all day, the one on my laptop, for all my news and entertainment and work. I listen to the Format and the Weakerthans and Daft Punk and the Handsome Furs and many others, most of which I did not purchase. I take my dates out for coffee or a movie. My phone is seven years old and only make phonecalls and does texting. I am me.
What will change in ten years?
