Maggie Simpson: The Voice of Her Generation

Just thought I'd share this screen capture I just made of the last Simpsons episode. It kind of gave me hope and a warm feeling, like maybe I can do something, even though I hate the shallowness of people wanting power and fame and money, but I do want the mainstream to change, and I might as well put my voice out there, even though I couldn't even imagine the horrible pressures of doing so, kids today NEED good music!

We need a new 90's/grunge/alternative/riot grrrl/Seattle/generation X Renaissance

So here I am, just a kid born in '92, trying to learn how to play guitar and trying to find a job so I can save up money and move to Seattle and have a better chance at forming a grunge band. I've been hating my generation since it started sucking back in '98 when all those horrible pop people started coming out like Britney Spears, N'sync, the Backstreet Boys, Christina Agulara, Aaron Carter, and so on, and I was the only little girl in school that hated that stuff because I realized that they were so obviously fake, phony, shallow, empty, stale, glossy, and gross, and I never knew why no one else seemed to understand this but me, so I've been feeling so different from every other human being on the face of the earth since I was 6. Somebody's gotta do something, something's gotta give. I hate fame, oh so much, like no, I've never wanted to be a big star, quit trying to tell me that's what everyone wants, but maybe I should try and start another grunge/alternative/90's revolution, because no one else is, and I'm sick and tired of hearing the names of the new bad pop stars, and they are just ripoffs of the first ones, and oh, the only thing worse than pop is emo, and I remember back in the 90's when hiphop/rap were actually good and not all glossy, but anyway, I realize the only reason I found out about grunge, when I was 12 back in late 2004, was because it got famous, so I owe that fact, even though I didn't know it was famous because no one was talking about it then, and you have no idea how precious it is to have good music in the mainstream as well as the underground. So I'll just keep practicing guitar and we'll see what happens.
