long walks downtown/ callling old friends

where are we going?

good question.

tonight me, my girlfriend, and my best friend were walking around the great humid cesspool that is downtown charleston. a small/giant city that is bursting at the seams. The only real reason i can see anyone going there is if you want to be a hipster, or if you want to check out 52.5, the record/info shop. anyway we were walking along and i noticed a lot of things. like, I've never seen a poor white person downtown, and if you get pulled over; 45493057340976 cops erupt from the clogged sewer drains to see what's going on and flash thier lights. as we walked around the bustling metropolis, i noticed we were the only dirty kids there, which is weird, but in retrospect i guess it wasn't, considering in a place full of college kids and hipster trash, clothes and smelling decent must mean a lot if you have to impress all your shitty friends. charleston, is so far, a humid, smelly, loud, annoying place full of drunks, trash, and idiots. but like most other places, it has a few shining stars, i.e. 52.5, the anarchist house, and the REALLY REALLY FREE MARKET this july 4th. hopefully some pretty cool stuff will be there. hopefully some actual pepole will be there and not hipster trash taking advantage of something amazing like they always do. but, hope never really does well in a place like charleston. it's built on disappointment.
