George was bored. George was considering not even showing up for Apathy Club. Except, let's be honest, she was too bored not to go.

And so, she went. And she was just going to sit there, this week, in silence, to wait and see if anybody else would start talking if she waited long enough. Interesting experiment.

Except Fandom had other ideas. Because there was an (admittedly awesome) punk guitar riff, and then -- that voice, singing? That was her.

... okay, so 'singing' was a generous term. So what. It was punk. You didn't need decent vocals for punk.

I went down to the beach and saw Daisy, and she was all, like, 'Ehhhhhhhhhh'
And I'm like, whatever!

Then this chick comes up to me and she's all, like, 'Hey, aren't you that girl --'
And I'm like, yeah, whatever!

So later, I'm at the pool hall, and this girl comes up and she's all, like, 'Ungggggh'
And I'm like, whatever!

'Cause this is MY United States of Whatever!
And this is my United States of Whatever!
And this is my United States of Whatever!

And then it's three AM, I'm on the corner wearing my leather, this dude comes up and he's like 'Hey, punk,'
And I'm like, yeah, whatever!

Then I'm dicking off in class, Professor Farnsworth comes up and he's like 'Hey I thought I told you -'
And I'm like, yeah, whatever!

Then up comes Jono and I'm like, 'yo, Jono, what's up?' and he's like 'Nuthin' and I'm like 'That's cool'

... 'Cause this is MY United States of Whatever!
And this is my United States of Whatever!
And this is my United States of Whatever!

George fucking hated this island. And all of you. Except, apparently, Jono.

At least the song hadn't been about happy shit?

Squall was going to pound on the desk and sing a completely different song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjNn4bbbgSw&ob=av2e). And start it in the middle, even. Why? Who the fuck cared?

There is a balance between two worlds
One with an arrow and a cross
Regardless of the balance life has become
Cumbersome

Too heavy too light, too black or too white, too wrong or too right, today or tonight
Cumbersome
Too rich or too poor, she's wanting me less and I'm wanting her more
The bitter taste is cumbersome

And George couldn't even enjoy the fact that he was singing. Why not? Oh, because it seemed to be her turn again. On a completely new song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGQaXWXcmLc), no less.

What if I wanted to fight?
Beg for the rest of my life?
What would you do?
You said you wanted more
What are you waiting for
I'm not running from you

Come, break me down
Bury me, bury me
I am finished with you

They were apparently in an emo-off. And they weren't NEARLY whiny and depressing enough, yet. Squall upped the ante (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gd9OhYroLN0&ob=av2n).

There's something inside me
That pulls beneath the surface
Consuming, confusing
This lack of self-control
I fear is never ending
Controlling, I can't seem
To find myself again
My walls are closing in
Without a sense of confidence
I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take
I've felt this way before
So insecure

Crawling in my skin
These wounds, they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real

You know what helped, in an emo-off? To get Morrissey (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qoiO0r0AoAA) to write some lyrics for you.

I am the son and the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
Of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way?
I am human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

(I know, I linked to a cover, but I like the cover version better. No disrespect to Morrissey intended, zomg.)

It helped, sure. It didn't WIN, though. Not when there was more emo to be found elsewhere (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2s3iGpDqQpQ&ob=av3e).

Hey, I'm feeling tired
My time is gone today
You flirt with suicide
Sometimes that's OK
Do what others say
I'm here standing hollow
Falling away from me, falling away from me

Day, is here fading
That's when I'm insane
I flirt with suicide
Sometimes kills the pain
I can't always say
'It's gonna be better tomorrow'
Falling away from me, falling away from me.

Beating me down, beating me, beating me down,
Down, into the ground, screaming so sound,
Beating me, beating me, down, down
Into the ground
