HQ Reviews THE SUMMER

I've been meaning to review something worth while for the past few weeks. I looked at everything and thought about what could make for funny. Couldn't find shit….the summer is winding down and I'm getting lazy. It's the heat, the humidity, the lazy-fucking days of summer. All I got is an experience or two about what I did this summer...hope yr interested.

…When did the summer start anyway? It was way cold and I had to sleep with a down-comforter and then all of sudden I had to keep my apartment windows wide open. That sucked, yeah! Didn't rain much but going to the beach at first was real weird.

…your "best" friends are back. Those collegiate bound are back living it up with mom and dad but you have no real stories to talk about. They do. Madrid, France, Prague, Bolivia. They all went there to do study abroad, backpack, work the land and people so you they can do the beatnik thing on a worldly basis. Shit…I wish I could've done that.. All you can tell them was that you worked, drank, smoked, went to a Silent Majority reunion show. But it's all right because now they're home and trilingual.

…to the Mermaid Parade at Coney Island. Fuck that Siren Festival bullshit! Too many people to see shit music. Fo rilly tho. This is the first happening of the summer that begs to be attended. If you on the grind doing day shifts and transforming into a Weekend Warrior then do this shit. You'll laugh your ass off at all the fruitloops and dykes who think they can out dress each other in costume while riding the sub there. It was sick. Just like the broken glass on the beach with the thugs wearing wife beaters and Air Max-95's to go swim in the ocean.

…BBQ on a rooftop. Any rooftop will do. It's the best feeling. No matter how dank the roof feels or skeevy the grill seems it's spark of nostalgic smells. Like Will said in "Summertime."

…gosh, is it the summer? What's the deal with the temp. Dropping to 60 at night? Am I the only one who remembers it dropping for a minute??

…July 4th party/bbq. I don't have friends that like to do ragers. I have friends that max and relax. The summer starts with July 4th here, there, everywhere. Be it a rooftop to see the Macy's fireworks or BaldHill to check out Grucci's fireworks. This marks the beginning.

…what the fuck are all these kids doing home from school? Oh yeah, Summer Vay-kay. Little fucking rugrats.

…Summer Album. The one you put on repeat on the iPod that's so perfect while sitting on the train, sitting in traffic on the way to the beach, to the club, something to get lifted to, something to eff to, to keep yr mind off the heat…you know? I personally enjoy "The B.Coming" by Beanie Sigel. Listen to Purple Rain.

…feeling bad about using yr A/C. It's the dead of summer. Omelets cooking on the sidewalk. Heat trails on the asphalt. Energy shortage went out over the wire saying to conserve by shutting off the "non-essential" power items. Fucking bull.

…getting drunk and puking all over your own shoes. Yes, you can do that year round but who gives a fuck, son. It's the summer!!!

…roadtrip. Trying to be a beatnik….naw I'm jealous of that fuck that went to Europe and lived out of a bag.

…Critical Mass. Apparently it's more fun in the summer. It runs year round on every last Friday of the month. Riding around 1,000 deep, at least on bikes…yeah you went to ride because it's a statement but really it's an excuse to get some digits. Fine bitches riding bikes these days. I'm talking finnne. And don't be fooled. The one's riding the fixed are usually lesbian…or just don't like dick.

…Hooking Up. Honestly, it's only going to last till the end of summer. Then she's going back to school, finito. Your still there…the leaves will turn, then die, the trees look dead, everything is cold, life sucks, yr so cold at night, you wish you were still inside her, maybe she'll come back during thanksgiving break. It's only November. HAAAHAHAHAH!!!! Live it up while you got it.

….like oh my gosh, the Hamptons. I'm not talking the Boardy Barn. I'm like talking about East Hampton. It's Gorgeous!! Everything's like way over priced and the people….oh my don't get me started on how fabulous white looks on people. Oh my!!!

…damn, I saw nip. Not only do I like whores in white pants with thongs and see through fabrics but I like whores who wear skirts. Is it me or do they just not care that they are showing the world they're goods for free. Only at water fountains does this happen. I like whores.

…I wish it was the winter. Sometimes you think about it. It's ok. It's so damn hot out that you really do wish.

…Warped Tour. I don't go to this but I heard it's the summer thing to do. I haven't gone since way back when. I'm sorry. I sold out. I don't dig on music like I used to. My tastes have developed into other things asides from the stuff you see on TV.

…Back to school….it's back to school bitch. This time of year seems the most effective for everybody. College kids getting stupid flip n' fucks, bean bags, and ramen noodles. High School kids getting new wardrobes, trapper keepers, mead notebooks, new shoes. It's a fun time.

…that last send off. This is the thing that you get to tell people about until it's February 24th and the temp dropped to 18 degrees. It's going to be memorable. It's got to be.

…I haven't had mine yet but I'll be sure to write. You got anything I missed email me holla@HQ.com
