sociallyawkward.

The Beastie Boys are legends.  Other than their dope lyrics, fun songs, and contagious teenage rebellion attitude, what I like most about them is their dedication to social change.  They’re not afraid to speak up about problems going on in the world, even while they were making an acceptance speech in an award show.  That’s why I look up to them & they’re part of the reason why I am who I am today, fighting that same fight for global justice.  As I’m still glad Ad-Rock, Mike D, & Mix Master Mike are still around to continue that fight for change, it is still sad to know that MCA will not; but I’m glad that he’s probably someplace drinking some brassmonkey in peace.

Jodie: isn’t it great how they keep electing us Homecoming King and Queen.
Mack: yes, it’s such a generous and enlightened gesture. it completely makes up for the town’s utter lack of diversity, in my mind.
Jodie: and we’re playing into it.
Mack: damn college applications.
